As filed

Compared to last Monday, the bulk of breaking and boning slaughter cows sold 4.00-7.00 lower with the greatest decline on high-dressing individuals and lean slaughter cows sold 2.00 lower. Slaughter bull sold 4.00-5.00 lower. The offering included a very light supply of bred cows and cow/calf pairs following the special replacement sale this past Saturday evening. Supply was heavy and demand moderate for slaughter classes.
