Compared to two weeks ago on a good run of slaughter cows 3.00-5.00 higher, instances 8.00, slaughter bulls lower undertones instances 2.00-4.00 lower, with not enough feeder calves for a good market test. Demand good with good buyer participation. Still summer schedule; next sale will be August 20 th with more 4-H resales available.
