As filed

Compared to last Monday, slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 3.00-4.00 higher. The offering included a light to moderate supply of bred cows and a light supply of cow/calf pairs. The weather forecast indicates that most of the area should receive some much needed rain this week. Supply was light and demand good for slaughter classes.
