The sale of cattle at MIR. j. A. J. ShultZ',
last Thursday, attracted q fair attendance.
The stock, owing probable to the scarcity OF
money, brought very low prices. Cows and
heifers averaged about *34; calves averaged
81. Thirty-nine animals were sold. We
hope Mr.. Shultz, when he has another sale,
may strike a more favorable time.
B. R. Ireland, Esq.,, of this city, bought,
last Friday. at the sale of thoroughbred Hol.
stein cattle, in Kansas City, one bull and one
young COW, both very handsome and valuable
animals. The bull il valued at 800, snd
seems to be well worth the money. He is {
heavy, we'll built animal, and though not q
all in flesh weighed, when exhibited on GU
streets, last Monday, 1,765 pounds. he il
u very fine animal, and royalty bred. Hii
name Is "St. Charles" He Is number 1lGS
volume 6, Of the 81. H. B. He was bred b.
Geo. E. Brown & Co., Aurora, Ills, cslvei
January 26, 1881, by Pilgrim, 3l7; dam WYlie
675. The Holstein COW purchased by Nj
Ireland is also q registered thoroughbred
Usquepaugh, 1894, an imported young COW
dropped March 10, 1888, bred by D. w
Funlcie, Baen, Friesland. Her first calf, b
Warrington, was dropped July IS. 1885. Nj
Ireland did not buy the calf. The Holstein
are the greatest mixers in the world, and &
! late years have been bred for butter - vel
: Their records for both milk and butter are
: many cases simply wonderful. In additio
: to this the animals are large and shapely an
{ very good for beef, indeed it is questionable
= any other breed Is better, and they have bee
growing in favor very rapidly in this countr,
g Mr.. ireland deserves credit for his enterpris
4 In being the first to bring into Lafayet
county this excellent breed Of cattle, and "
hope he may be very successful with them.
