As filed

This report combines the regular slaughter/replacement sale with the replacement sale this evening. Compared to last week slaughter cows and bulls traded steady. In the replacement portion of the sale again quality replacement cattle were in demand. A package of cow-calf pairs led the offering trading at 2010.00, along with quality bred heifers that traded at 1510.00 per head. Total supply was heavy with good demand.
