As filed

Compared to last week: best test on steers 900 to 950 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. Best test on heifers 900 to 950 lbs mostly steady, instances up to 4.00 lower. Good to very good demand for this large offering of yearlings. Much of the offering sold in loads and strings with cattle both off grass and out of yards. Flesh light to moderate plus, less flesh overall than last week. Quality similar to last week, from average to attractive. An active market with a full house today. Producers are busy with corn silage and pregnancy checking, lots of tested open heifers coming to town. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, September 21.
