Compared to last week steer calves 500-700 lbs sold 40.00 to 50.00 lower and 
heifer calves under 600 lbs sold 10.00 to 40.00 lower. Eight weight yearling 
steers sold steady to 15.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good from the buyers 
in the crowd with internet activity noticed. Buyers were more selective with 
what they were bidding on, fall vaccinations and uniformity was in higher 
demand or the bidding slowed and the discount got rather large.
