"BACK TO GRASS CALF & YEARLING AUCTION"  No comparison stated today as the 
previous special was 3 weeks ago. Available today were high quality, green, 
home raised fall calves, all LTW'd and double vaccinated and long runs of 
yearling cattle. Both calves and yearling sold in load lots and smaller 
packages. Internet bidding very active. Quality heifers returned to the country 
as replacements. Demand was very good for today's moderate supply. Trade was 
very active.
