Now the report from Stockland Livestock.

“Six hundred head of cattle here at our sale here Monday. Cows and bulls fully steady. Top of 75 cents on the better weigh up cows. Bulls topped at 80 cents. A good strong market all the way around on feeder cattle. Some of these seven-weight cattle up in the high 20’s low 30s. Six weight cattle and down higher than that. Gonna call the market steady to strong. Don’t forget a special feeder sale coming up on the 7th until that time we sell all classes of cattle here every Monday. We always feature our feeders and stocks at one o ‘clock. That’s Stockland Livestock in Davenport. Thanks for your business.
