As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 lower and slaughter bulls sold 3.00-4.00 lower. The highlight replacement sale held following the regular cow and bull sale contributed to the heavy supply of bred cows and cow/calf pairs. Supply was heavy and demand moderate for slaughter classes.
