Compared to last week steers less than 600 lbs sold 8.00 to 10.00 higher, 600 
to 800 lbs sold 1.00 to 2.00 higher, and over 800 lbs sold 4.00 to 8.00 higher. 
Heifers less than 600 lbs sold 7.00 to 10.00 higher, and over 600 lbs sold 
unevenly steady on heifers going to the feedlots. Heifers sold by the head 
going back as replacements sold 300.00 per head more. Demand was good to very 
good. Quite a few heifers going back to the breeding pastures this summer.  A 
lot of ranchers have sold their heifer crop the last couple of years and are 
needing to replace old cows on the ranch.  Per say, expansion may not be 
happening as drought conditions are knocking on the door and ranchers are 
swapping old genetics for younger genetics in their herds.  Feedlots held firm 
on asking prices and sold at higher money on the week on a Friday trade. Live 
sales sold 5.00 higher from 245.00 to 246.00 and dressed sales sold 4.00 higher 
at mostly 382.00
