Class II demand is slightly lower as ice cream manufacturers are starting to decrease their or- ders. Class III intakes are increasing. Milk production in the Pacifi c Northwest is following typical seasonal trends. Handlers have refi lled the school bottling pipeline and manufac- turers have adequate to comfortable supplies of milk for processing needs. Available milk is readily fi nding a home within the region. Milk production in the mountain states of Ida- ho, Colorado, and Utah is still strong. Industry contacts say most milk is able to fi nd a home within the region, but supplies are heavy and some discounted loads are available.

NATIONAL FEEDER AND STOCKER CATTLE (Federal-State Market News) St. Joseph, Mo. Sept. 29 This week Last week Last year 211,000 341,100 225,200 Compared to Sept. 22: Steers and heifers were un- even, mostly 4.00 lower to 4.00 higher as some sales early in the week quoted up to 8.00 lower and later in the week quoted 7.00 to 8.00 higher. Demand for feeder cattle and yearlings was moder- ate to very good, with many headed home to farmer feeders. For unweaned or short-weaned calves, de- mand was light to moderate at best. Corn harvest is in full swing, with farmers looking to feed part of their corn crop to livestock, especially with the lower grain prices across the country. Receipts were somewhat curtailed and wheat planting halted as rain and cooler temperatures moved through the Southern Plains. On Thursday at the Valentine Livestock Auction in Valentine, Neb., there were many bell-ringing sales. There were two loads of steers weighing 719 pounds at 182.75 and a load of 866-pound steers bringing 171.25. An impressive amount of 159.00 was paid for a load of 853 pound heifers, which was only 5.00 lower than steers at the same weight. The Phillip Livestock Auction in Phillip, S.D., had noteworthy sales on Tuesday, with a load of 530-pound steers selling at 196.00. Follow the leader was played this week, with feeder cattle trading mostly lower early-week, following the triple-digit losses observed in the CME live and feeder cattle futures on Monday. This was due to the Board reacting to last week’s Cattle on Feed report, as Place- ments were signifi cantly higher than expected. However, the Board turned positive mid-week and provided support to the feeder cattle market. Compared to last Friday, October live cattle futures closed 2.48 lower at 109.10 and December was 115.25, down 2.18. October feeder cattle futures closed 3.87 lower at 152.23 and November closed at 154.00, down 3.62, both compared to last Friday.
