As filed

Compared to last week, Friday's auction was a Special Bred Cow and Pair sale with a very light offering of feeder cattle selling in small bunches and singles. A few sales of light weight calves and bulls weighing under 500 lbs sold with a firm undertone. Slaughter cows on a nice offering sold firm to 3.00 higher on and active market.

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