As filed

Compared to a week ago Friday September 1st slaughter and feeder cows traded 2.00 to 5.00 lower. Slaughter bulls traded mostly steady. Compared to last Wednesday feeder steers and heifers traded mostly steady to comparable trades. It was a longer day with a different format throughout the day as Torrington hosted the WLAC auctioneer qualifying event. Thirty-six contestants participated each selling six drafts of cattle. A nice offering with all classes of cattle on display. Feeder Sale next Wednesday.
