Compared to last week steers less than 700 lbs sold 3.00 to 15.00 lower, 
yearlings over 700 lbs sold steady to 10.00 higher.  Heifers less than 700 lbs 
sold mostly steady to 7.00 higher on light weights. Yearling heifers sold 20.00 
lower. Demand was light to good. Calf market held pretty firm until the week's 
close when the market fell off pretty sharp at those auctions. CME cattle 
boards were lower most of the week. Along with muddy weaning pens and some sick 
calves around buyers desire to lay in more fresh calves at current levels was 
not in their playing cards.  Some late week calf prices roughly 20.00 lower in 
places compared to last weeks sales. Feed lot pens in some areas are muddy and 
deep for going into winter and with big, heavy fat cattle trudging though them 
feedlot managers took early cash bids to get cattle out of the mud. Live sales 
sold  2.00 to 5.00 lower from 223.00 to 226.00 and dressed sales sold 3.00 to 
10.00 lower from 348.00 to 355.00.
