As filed

Compared to two weeks ago, feeder cattle sold steady to $3.00 higher. Travel on many roads around Mitchell area is very difficult. Many roads and bridges are closed due to water over roads. Demand was good today. Next feeder cattle auction will be Sept. 26th, expecting 2000 head of feeder cattle, starting at 10: AM
