Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, on a Bred Cow Special: slaughter cows steady to instances 4.00 higher, slaughter bulls mostly steady on light offering. Not enough feeder calves for a market test. Demand good to moderate for a active bred cow sale, good buyer attendance and participation.
