BEEF CATTLE SCARCE.
Local Market Men Having Trouble in Getting
Enough to Supply Demand,

IHouSh " ouPpiy Oe"ldHu'
Beef cattle have never been so
scarce as they are at present for many
years. The market men of Dawson
have to make frequent excursions into
other counties after cattle, and then
find it difficult to secure enough to sup
ply the demand for beef.
This indicates that the cattle indus
try would be profitable here. There
is no reason why the people of this sec
ton should not raise all the beef cattle
that may be needed, and besides have
large numbers to ship to other sec
tions at good profit.

Mr.. w. j. w. Daniel, a prosperous
farmer living several miles north OF
Dawson, near Worner, brought here
for sale Friday a two horse wagon load
of turnips, which were larger, perhaps,
than any ever marketed in Dawson be-

Mr.. Daniel realized nice sum from
