Compared to last week:  steers 850 to 899 lbs 6.00 to 8.00 lower, 900 to 999 
lbs mostly steady with instances 8.00 higher on 900 to 949 lbs, 1000 to 1099 
lbs 6.00 to 10.00 higher.  Good to very good demand for yearlings today.  All 
loads and strings on offer with just one consignment of feedlot cattle and the 
rest coming off grass.  Flesh and quality mostly attractive.  An active market 
with buyers taking several loads or all loads of a cut many times during the 
sale.  Some of the earlier enthusiasm is back and buyers are wanting to own 
cattle, although they still exhibit more caution than seen earlier this season. 
 Warm weather continues but cooler weather is forecasted for next week.  Next 
feeder cattle sale is Friday, October 10, and in two weeks, October 17,the 
special Anniversary Sale with the first test of spring calves.
