As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers 500-650 lbs firm to 3.00 higher, other weights near steady except some lesser quality under 450 lbs 2.00-4.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 650 lbs 2.00-5.00 lower, over 650 lbs 2.00-5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00-2.00 lower. Typical October auction with considerable price variation depending on quality and weaning status with lots of weather changes and doctoring likely in store over the next 45 days.
