Compared to last week steer calves 400-500 lbs sold 5.00 lower and steer calves 500-700 lbs sold steady to 8.00 higher. Heifer calves 400-650 lbs sold 6.00 to 10.00 lower except heifer calves 500-600 lbs selling steady to 4.00 higher, the yearling heifers sold 7.00 lower. The offering consisted of nearly 60 percent yearlings and weaned calves with the balance on bawling calves which nearly all had received fall vaccinations. Demand was moderate to very good from the buyers in the crowd
