Mir. II. G. Brauer Brings a
Splendid Lot Of Cattle

with the growth of Richmond from q
large country town to an important man
ufacturing and financial center having
metropolitan airs, no problem Of expan-

In arriving at this happy conclusion
Mr.. II. c. Brauer, an enterprising busi-
ness man of the city, has rendered an

exceptionally fine lot of beef cattle he
recently purchased In the Windy City ana

of Richmonds elite.
Many thousands OF cattle are sold every
day in Chicago and in consequence the
papers say nothing of them unless the
sale Is particularly notable. Mr.. Brauer
was not surprised, but gratifed. never
theless. to find this item in one Of tho
great dailies of Chicago:
"The bunch of prime cattle that were
bought by Noog and Greenwald on yes
terday's market were purchased by II.
C. Brauer. of Richmond. Va, for his
select Southern trade. Mr.. Brauer ham
dies the choicest goods obtanable."
Every head Of this shipment Is blue
ribboner" or prize winner, and as 1t Is
a real treat for lovers of stock to see
beautiful cattle, Mr. Brauer has decided
to allow his herd to be on exhibition to-
day, tomorrow and Tuesday ut the I'm
ior Stock Yards. The public Is given a
cordial invitation to go out to the yards
and see as fine n lot OF cattle as ever
came out of the great West. On We'd
ncsday they will be slaughtered at the
plant of the Virginia Packing Company.
After preparation, for market the public
may again see this delectable food. The
Packing Cmpany welcomes people to visit
It's plant, which Is at all times kept IN
apple-pIc order Of spic-and-span neatness.
