Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded mostly steady with the exception of a lean cow selling 3.00 to 5.00 lower. Slaughter bulls selling weaker on a light test. A nice offering of bred cows with several complete and partial dispersals. Aged cows selling mostly steady to higher to last week with all other ages selling mostly steady. Next Friday will also be a Bred Cow Special with a few dispersials already on the books.
