Compared to last week Feeder Steers 400 to 750 Steady, Feeder Heifers under 450 2.00 to 3.00 higher, 450 to 500 3.00 lower, 500 to 600 Steady, 600 to 650 2.00 lower, 650 to 750 Steady. Very Good Demand for several Strings and many many Load Lots and Packages of Feeder Steers, Feeder Heifers, and Replacement Heifers which all sold on a Very Strong, Active Market. The Fall delivery season weather continues to be outstanding resulting clean, open haired cattle in good condition with a favorable weigh-up. The Next Feeder Cattle Sale is November 8, Spring Calf Special, expecting 6,000 Head. Remember to Vote next Tuesday!
