As filed

Compared to last Monday, slaughter cows sold 1.00-3.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 1.00 higher. The offering included a light supply of bred cows and cow/calf pairs. Rain over the weekend and again this morning greatly reducing receipts. Supply was very light and demand good for slaughter classes.
