Sale consists of 30 head of Holstein cows and
heifers that were bought at Evansville, Wisconsin, by
Rex Young for the Farmers State Bank of Plattsmouth,
and he purchased them from twelve of the best dairies
in Wisconsin and from herds of reputation. If you could
see what these dairies are doing for the owners and the
country, you would want to own a few dairy cows.
About one-half of these cows are heifers, will have
calves at side sale day. Some are fresh now, others will
be within a few days after sale. ' ' '
Also in this sale will be some real mules, and two
good Ford trucks, 1923 models, one having been used
only one month. -
Go see your banker, if you need to, and come pre
'pared to take a few cows home something that will
always pay the bill.
