McAlester livestock sales reportThe McAlester Union Livestock Market, McAlester, Okla., reported receipts of 1,350 head Aug. 12, compared to 1,400 head last week and 1,100 head last year, according to the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture-USDA Market News, Oklahoma City, Okla.

Many more cattle were in the average to attractive range. Receipts included 46% steers, 39% heifers, 14% bulls with 27% over 600 pounds.
