Western Iowa Precondition Sale. Compared to the sale last Friday; light steers 600-700 lbs 4.00-5.00 higher, steers 800 lbs 6.00-9.00 higher. Light heifers, 500-700 lbs were mostly 4.00-6.00 higher, 750 lb heifers sharply higher. Plenty of packages of both light calves and heavier cattle 800-900 lbs in the offering today. Demand good.
