Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Few comparisons in type and kind to the sale two weeks ago but steers and heifers sold with a sharply lower undertone. Slaughter cows 4.00 to 5.00 higher. Atypical sale here at the local market with quality not up to par and a very high percentage of singles or very small packages in the offering. Supply light to moderate and demand light.
