begin at 11:00 a.m.

Compared to last week, the market posted another week of record barn prices 
with very strong demand, despite calves being slightly plainer in quality than 
the previous offering. Feeder steers weighing 300-500 lbs. traded $10.00 
higher. Steers weighing 500-700 lbs. sold $15.00-$20.00 higher. Feeder heifers 
traded $5.00-$10.00 higher.

Several quality consignments of replacement cows were offered, drawing strong 
buyer interest and selling on strong demand. Slaughter cattle saw good demand, 
selling steady to $5.00 higher compared to the previous week.
