As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Slaughter bulls traded steady to last week. A large offering today on all classes of cows. Heiferettes traded sharply higher to last week. Also a small offering of bawling calves with most of the offering having both spring and fall shots. A very active market from start to finish.

A barn can sit above the state average at one weight and below it at another — check the class you actually sell.
