As filed

Compared to last week; feeder steers traded mostly steady on comparable trades with a limited test on most weights. Feeder heifers traded mostly steady with the exception of a 6 weight heifer selling 10.00 higher. A lighter run this week with numbers in the area slowing down through the sale ring. Sale again next Wednesday.
