Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared with last week Harvest cows and bulls sold unevenly steady with no other comparisons. There was a good crowd on hand today for for good strings and packages of mostly weaned and preconditioned calves as well as some replacement type heifers. Trade today was good with demand being moderate to good throughout the sale. Sheridan's next sale will be a bred cow special December 18.
