As filed

Compared to last week: Light run of feeder steers and heifers sold mostly steady. Demand good for few feeders. Bulk of supply was un-weaned or short weaned calves and these sold 10.00-15.00 lower. Few long weaned calves steady. Demand moderate at best for un-weaned calves. Demand very good for long weaned calves. In the cattle business it is the dreaded month of October where wide temperature changes prove tough on short weaned or un-weaned calves. First cool front of the season pushed thru over night bringing some much needed rain. Another cold front is headed this way and will drop over night temps into the 40's.
