   Compared to last Wednesday, slaughter cows and slaughter bulls sold
2.00-3.00 higher. The offering included a light supply of bred cows
and a very light supply of cow/calf pairs. Supply and demand were
moderate for slaughter classes. A special fund raising auction was
held during the sale which produced $12,050 for the Crowder College
Ag Department.

***Note: JRS will hold their next replacement cow sale on Wednesday April
17th immediately following the regular cow and bull sale.***
