Receipts about 70 percent

mainly cows Slaughter
steers and heifers opened the
week sharply lower, due to
increased receipts and a
depressed beef trade At
mid-week with reduced
receipts upturn noted with
full recovery on slaughter
heifers in very uneven
trading. Narrow outlet for
cattle carrying high per
centage yield grade 4’s.
