* A Few Facts For Cattle Dealers.
It ha been repeatedly
demon traied in
the past that
Stands at top as a market for Range Feeders
You can sitiafy yourself as to the truth of that dlarement by
comparing the sales at Sioux City , last year , with those at any other
competitive market. You can also ask your neighbors who have sold
rattle at Sioux City. This year Sioux City is in the field for fat cat
tle HS well as feeders. The r at beef slaughtering plant of the
Cudnhy Packing Co. is ready for business
The capacity of the Stock Yards lias been
greatly increased and you will find
excellent facilities for handling
your business.
Ko charges , except for feed ordered if your cattle are not sold on our market.
