THANK YOU to our consignors for trusting us to sell your calves, to our buyers for work- ing tirelessly to fill their orders, and to our employees who worked diligently to make for a great sale. We feel blessed to have had


such a good run yesterday after our Special Cow Sale this past Saturday. Doc worked a barn record of 797 cows, with a total head count of 955hd. Bred stock sold exceptionally well at this sale – call us to consign for print/radio advertising for the December sale. **Next Special Pre-Vac sale
