As filed

The SLMC was a packed house tonight for the monthly replacement cattle special sale. Multiple groups of high quality bred heifers were a sale highlight, as well as many young pairs, and groups of bred cows. Despite extreme winter weather conditions moving into the area, demand for quality replacements was high and all consignments in the offering found many bidders throughout the evening.
