This is the first combined auction results for the fall marketing season, no 
recent comparisons available.  Moderate demand was seen for the few 
consignments of spring born calves, as most cattle feeders are busy with fall 
harvest and aren't quite ready to receive bawling calves.  Good demand for 
yearling steers and heifers as they continue to come off grass.  There was some 
pressure on the market however, as the cash fed cattle market has slipped down 
to 230.00-235.00 and boxed beef prices continue their decline.
