As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, the bulk of slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 high with a few high dressing 3.00-4.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 2.00-3.00 higher. The supply of bred cows was light and the supply of cow/calf pairs was very light. Supply was light and demand moderate to good for slaughter classes.
