As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves sold mostly steady to 5.00 higher except for a few bigger groups of 45 day plus weaned steer calves weighing under 500 lbs selling with a higher undertone. The majority of the run was calves and a typical type of October run was offered with very few calves weaned longer than 30 days, several bulls and the majority coming in off the cow or short weaned. The price ranges got pretty wide depending upon quality and how the cattle had been handled but demand was moderate to good. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-5.00 lower.

One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Missouri auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
