Average price = $ 546. Last

= $ 553. Muddy fields resulted in less
cattle coming to town so demand exceeded supply. 65% of the calves were 3 – 5 weights with prices $5 - $7/cwt
higher. Quality of cattle
inconsistent. Not enough young cows to test
the market. Midage pairs $60 -$70
higher. Packer cows steady; bulls $1
higher.
