As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, yearling load lots sold 11.00 to 12.00 higher. Slaughter cows 5.00 to 7.00 higher. Aside from 4 loads of yearling steers and a few consignments of fall bred cows, supply was light ahead of the Annual Customer Appreciation Sale in two weeks. Demand good.
