Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Friday's auction was a bred cow sale, with a very light offering of feeder cattle selling in small packages and singles with no real comparisons on last week's large offering. Bred cows were sold in small packages with one consignment of black bred heifers selling with good demand. A nice offering of slaughter cows sold steady to firm with instances 3.00 higher on the high dressing cows.
