As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, fat breaking cows sold 3.00-4.00 higher while boning and lean cows sold 7.00-10.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 6.00-8.00 higher. The offering included a moderate supply of bred cows and a light supply of cow/calf pairs. Supply was moderate and demand very good for slaughter classes. Sleet and snow fell on most of the area this morning and turned to a cold rain this afternoon.
