Butcher Cows and
MICH COW EXCHANGE.

South st. Paul, Minn.-Lytle & Raeburn' 8
reSort:
Not nearly enough good cows coming in.
The demand for all useful animals is many
times greater than the supply. Steers Of all
ages have gone so high that stock-raisers' are
now turning their attention to the purchasing
Of cows either with calves by their sides or
soon to be there. This, coupled with the
fact that creameries' are springing up all over
the country needing more stock, and farmers
being in good shape this year, don't need to
sell their cows, has raised prices quite con-
s!derably. ~
