Lubbock Livestock Auction Caps Evening with Record Steer and Lamb Sales
A seven firm coalition pushed the final bid to 2.15 per pound for the grand champion steer at the Lubbock sale, topping last year’s 2.05. Max Thomas Roosevelt 4-H won $407.40 on a 2.10 bid for his grand champion barrow, while Carl Ebbs earned $280 for his reserve barrow at 1.40 per pound. Lamb and sheep classes saw top prices from 40 cents to 8 per pound, with crossbred lambs and fine wool showing strong demand. Engraved plaques recognized Dave Sherrill and Ray Johnson, and numerous county FFA and 4-H participants earned awards for showmanship and herdsmanship.

Tax actions and missing pilots mark Morton area notes
Tax planning includes retention of the 7 percent investment credit despite calls to suspend it as inflation hedging. Officials caution Congress may or may not appropriate more funds this year, affecting April tax decisions. Meanwhile, a large search near Morton for missing pilots Max and Leora Bowers drew 27 residents as authorities prepared to renew efforts in Bryan and Temple. The Bowers, former Morton mayor and school board member, were active in local groups and remembered by many as life impact. U.S. sales to Sweden expected to rise toward a record 386 million dollars this year after mixed signals in early months.
