Compared to last Friday: not enough yearlings to give a price comparison; steer 
calves from 400 lbs to 449 lbs were 20.00 to 30.00 lower, steers from 450 lbs 
to 749 lbs were steady to 12.00 lower; heifer calves from 400 lbs to 449 lbs 
were 6.00 to 8.00 lower, heifers from 450 lbs to 599 lbs were steady to 8.00 
higher.  Good to very good demand for todays offering of calves.  Lessor demand 
for the old crop yearling cattle when compared to the last few weeks.  A large 
crowd on hand for todays auction with order buyers, farmer feeders and internet 
buyers trying to buy cattle.  A more cautious approach by those buying as the 
futures market was down again today.  Calves were fresh off the cows, fully 
vaccinated and most were in light flesh condition.   The full loads of black 
hided, fully preconditioned calves garnered the most interest from buyers.  A 
fairly active market throughout the sale.  Next feeder sale is scheduled for 
Friday November 7th, expecting a large run of calves and several consignments 
of old crop yearlings.
