Into the cattle business. In connec

terday concluded the purchase of and
received a carload of fine cattle
which will be fed for market upon
the Gochenour Island south of the
city. The cattle were driven out to
the island yesterday morning and
they are good ones. They were pur
chased at the South Omaha stock
yards through the medium of John
McBrlde, stock buyer for Ralston &
Fonda. The animals came up to the
expectation of both Mr. McDanlel and
backward in expressing their appre
backward in eypressing their appre
ciation of Mr. McBride's ability as a
cattle buyer. Mr. Gochenour recent
ly concluded fencing off a large part
of this island for a pasture and has
ample room to feed the animals in.
In addition the feed upon the island
is heavy and there is no doubt but
that in the driest seasons the animals
will find plenty to eat and fatten
on.
