As filed

Compared to last Wednesday, the bulk of fat breaking and boning slaughter cows sold 2.00-3.00 lower with a few high-dressing steady. Lean slaughter cows sold steady and slaughter bulls sold 3.00-4.00 lower. The offering included a light to moderate supply of bred cows and cow calf pairs. Much of the area is in need of a good rain as the grass and other crops are beginning to show the effects of an extended period without rain. Supply and demand were moderate for slaughter classes.
