As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, slaughter cows sold steady to 1.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 1.00-3.00 lower. The offering included a herd dispersal along with a couple large consignments which provided a moderate to heavy supply of bred cows. There was a light supply of cow/calf pairs. Supply and demand were moderate for slaughter classes.
