Compared to last Tuesday sale; slaughter cows 2.00-6.00 higher instances 7.00-11.00 higher, slaughter bulls 4.00-9.00 higher instance individual 11.00 higher. Light run for feeder cows, so no comparisons available. Special Feeder Calf Sale: Mostly steady with uneven market trend, higher trend for 700 lb steers with 2.00-5.00 higher instances 7.00 . Demand good with good buyer attendance and participation.
