Compared to last week:  a very light yearling offering with no good comparisons 
to last week's larger offering.  Best test on calves was on steers 500 to 549 
lbs mostly steady.  Good to very good demand for calves this week.  Just a 
couple load lots in today's offering with the majority of calves selling in 
packages.  Calves were mostly attractive in quality and all off the cow  in 
mostly light flesh condition.  Shot records varied quite a bit and although 
good, complete preconditioning has always been very important, buyers are being 
more selective than ever on calves without a rock solid shot record.  An active 
market with the most activity on load lots, both buyers a few farmer feeders in 
the seats today.  Bean harvest is progressing quickly and some corn harvest has 
started.  Dry weather is making good harvest conditions.  A much larger run of 
calves for the next feeder cattle sale, Thursday, October 16.
