As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter cows and slaughter bulls traded steady. This report combines the results of the regular cow and bull sale with the replacement cattle sale this evening. There was several drafts of fancy replacement cattle. Quality bred cows traded 50.00-275.00 per head higher. Cow-Calf pairs traded steady. Supply heavy with good demand.
