As filed

This weeks sale was a replacement cow auction which featured several herd liquidations including some young fall calving cows with nice babies along side. Conditions in the local area continue to be very dry with many cattle watering holes dried up and feed supplies will be tight this winter. Demand was good for the replacement stock and the supply moderate.
