As filed

Compared to two weeks ago, yearling feeder steers sold unevenly steady and yearling heifers sold 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Not enough bawling calves from last sale for a market comparison. However a higher undertone was noted. Demand was good for all classes on hand. Most lots of yearlings came off of grass. Bulk of the calves had precondition shots. Wednesday Oct 13 will be the next sale.
