As filed

First reported sale in three weeks a market trend is not applicable. Demand was moderate to good at the beginning of the sale on packages of light weight fall calves. Demand was light for load lots of back-grounded feeders after the CME cattle boards traded 3.00 to 4.00 lower on the day as order buyers fell quite and the farmer/feeder buyers were scarce.
