As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 lower and slaughter bulls sold steady. A high percent of the offering went to slaughter. There was a light supply of bred cows and very light supply of cow/calf pairs. Supply was moderate and demand good for slaughter classes.
