Compared to last week: Due to light number of cattle in all weight classes, to compare to last week is difficult. A steady to higher undertone was noted on steers. Heifers 650-900 lbs. sold steady to 2.00 lower. Fair amount of load lots in todays offering. Demand was good. The next feeder cattle auction will be Aug. 20th, starting at 10:00 am. Expecting 3000 head of cattle.
