Compared to last week:
The front-end classes of feeder steers and
heifers steady to uneven while the plainer
classes finished weaker. Slaughter cows
and slaughter bulls finished fully $3.50
stronger. Buyer trade was active yet cautious
with the demand good on all feeder
classes. WE WISH EVERYONE A MERRY
CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW
YEAR! OUR NEXT SALE WILL BE ON
