As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, the bulk of slaughter cows sold 1.00-2.00 higher with a few high-dressing 3.00-4.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 1.00 higher. There was a light supply of bred cows and a very light supply of cow/calf pairs. Supply was heavy and demand good for slaughter classes.
