As filed

Compared to last sale: Feeder steer 600 to 800 lbs steady to 4.00 higher, 800 to 1000 lbs 5.00-10.00 lower conservatively. Feeder heifers steady to 5.00 lower with 750 lb heifers 15.00 lower on lesser quality. Steer calves and heifer calves in a very light comparison unevenly steady. Quality ranged from fleshy to fancy. Demand good. Today's sale exemplified the ideal combination of condition and genetics, with any cattle exhibiting either trait fetching the highest prices.
