Today was a seasonal Tuesday calf sale, compared to Thursday:  best test on 
steer calves 450 to 499 lbs 60.00 to 65.00 lower, 550 to 599 lbs 35.00 to 40.00 
lower.  Best test on heifer calves 500 to 549 lbs 35.00 to 40.00 lower.  A nice 
line up of calves today with quite a few load lots and many packages.  Overall 
quality was quite attractive and most of the calves had a sound vaccination 
record.  Moderate to good demand with best demand seen for customers of bull 
breeders as they competed to own their genetics.  A much different market 
situation than a week ago as the futures complex continues to decline.  Buyers 
are much more reserved as any confidence in the industry's future has 
evaporated.  A nice crowd of buyers, farmer feeders, and bull breeders in the 
seats for an irregular sale day.  A few cancellations today due to rain west 
and north making for muddy yards and roads.  Next feeder cattle sale is 
Thursday, October 30, expecting 7500 head.
