Compared to last week:  Slaughter steers and heifers mostly steady.  Moderate 
demand for this lighter offering of very attractive, hard fed, high quality 
grading steers and heifers. The market was a little more active this week but 
with country trade at on Tuesday packers were not willing to push the bids very 
far.  5 full loads of steers, two full loads of heifers, balance part loads and 
stock trailer loads.

Slaughter lambs steady to 3.00 lower.  Feeder lambs 15.00 to 20.00 higher.  
Slaughter ewes 10.00 higher.  Good demand for slaughter lambs, very good demand 
remains for feeder lambs, improved demand for slaughter ewes on a lighter 
offering.  The market was active on the slaughter lambs, very active on the 
feeder lambs and slaughter ewes.
