As filed

Compared to last Monday, breaking and boning slaughter cows sold 4.00-5.00 higher with a non-traditional boning individual 10.00 higher than the top high-dressing individual last Monday. Lean slaughter cows sold 2.00-3.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 2.00 higher. The offering included a moderate supply of bred cows with the sale of a small herd dispersal and a light supply of cow/calf pairs. Supply was moderate to heavy and demand very good for slaughter classes.
