As filed

Compared to last sale: Slaughter bulls 2.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady to 3.00 higher in a light comparison. Demand good. Quality mostly plain. Recent fires in our area brought in several drafts of young cattle unable to return to the country, and nearly 80 head of 100-200 lb calves. Extreme drought conditions continue to plague the area. Precipitation is forecasted in our area Wednesday - Saturday.
