Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, comparable sales were very limited and the overall quality was below average. Most of the calves came straight off the cow. This weeks dreary weather and mud kept most cattle at home. Supply was light and demand was moderate to light. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 1.00 higher.
