As filed

Compared to last week: Yearling feeder steers were steady in a narrow comparison. Yearling heifers were 2.00 - 7.00 higher this week. Demand was good for the strings of yearling spayed and open heifers. Many home raised holding an attractive, moderate flesh condition. It appears the inclement weather condition in Eastern South Dakota has not affected market activity. Next sale Sept 20, 2019.
