Special Calf & Yearling Sale. No trend applicable, as the previous sale was three weeks ago. Lower trend noted, following the downturn in the market. Most of the auction consisted of full load lots of yearling cattle, along with plenty of smaller packages. Good demand, especially on advertised load lots of heavy cattle. The next feeder sale is September 11.
