TOPS CATTLE MARKET
It is evident that the country con
tinues to appreciate products of Cass
county, which was shown when Mr.
Louis Born, a farmer from this neigh
borhood, put a top on the Omaha mar
ket for car load shipments when he
marketed 18 head of well-finished
beeves that were fed on grain and
hay raised in this county, and which
brought $13.10.
There is no doubt that a combin
ation of good quality cattle and feed
raised in Cass county will put the
finish on animals that is desired by
the meat consuming public, and this
is just another instance of what re
sults can be achieved by our neigh
bors. These cattle were sold by the Great
Western Commission company, and
they report that the cattle had plenty
of competition while on sale.
