Western Iowa Precondition Sale. Compared to the auction last Friday; Steers 600-650 lbs were mixed, 700-750 lbs mixed, 800 lbs 2.00 lower. Heifers 550 lbs 3.00 higher, 600-650 lbs 18.00-22.00 lower, 700 lbs 7.00 higher with a load lot of nice quality heifers. CME feeder cattle futures 3.00 lower today. The auction consisted of four loads, many half loads and plenty of smaller packages. Good demand.
