Tues., October 16, 2018 - Packer Day

 362 head sold in today's auction.  Fed cattle sold steady to strong with a 110.00 top.  A couple of bunches carried some baggage and were full, but were finished and sold well but back from the higher dollar groups.  Cows were generally steady.  Bulls were higher on the front enders and cheaper for the lower quality one.
