As filed

First sale in three weeks a market trend is not applicable. However, a steady undertone was noted on steers and a higher undertone noted on heifers. Demand was good throughout the day. With several loads going to internet buyers. Some offerings coming off summer grass and some from background lots. Few, fall calving bred cows and pairs sold in the mix. Next Special Calf and Feeder Sale will be August 28th.
