Fine Shipment of Cattle and Hogs.

Through the kindness of County
ident of the East Coast Cattle Co, a
Tribune representative was driven to
the company's stock pens just south
of Fort Pierce last Friday to see a
car load of cattle and pigs that had
been just received for the Fort Pierce
market. The shipm INT was composed
Of 80 head of beef cattle and 40 hogs,
and were from the stock farm of S. II.
Gaitskill. president of the Florida
Florida Stock Breeders Association. of
McIntosh( near Ocala.
The cattle are mixed blood being
half short. horn and half native stock.
and were fattened by Mr.. Gaiskill on
velvet beans. The hogs were of Berk-
shire stock. and while only six months
old will dress more than the average
1S-mOnths old "razorback"
Mr.. Raulerson informed us that it
was the finest shipment that he ever
received, and that is saying great
deal, for this company receives a car
load every two weeks for the markets
here and at Miami; many of them
coming from Tennessee. Alabama and
| Georgia.
The beef cattle are two years old
and each head will dress from 300
to 400 pounds, while the hogs will
dress from so to 12O pounds. The car
| load cost the East Coast Cattle Co.
more than S1.OO exclusive of trans
portation.
This shows what can be accomplish
ed in Florida, and no part of the state
is better suited for the raising of beef
! cattle than the section west of Fort
Pierce. The natural pasturage is su-
perb with the velvet bean which is
highly recommended for fattening cat
tie, will grow here to perfection. \
ready market is at hand for all that
| can be produced and an excellent OPP
pOrtunity awaits some enterprising
cattle raiser who will taake advan-
tage Of this opportunity and establish
farm for the raising and fatening of
stock for our markets.-St Lucie

Willie Hoppe, the boy billiardist,
found it necessary to send to st.
Louis for an expert billiard player
to play practice games with him,
because none of the leading play
ers would play with him. Hopes
friends claim that Morningstar
Schaefer, Slosson and the other
cue experts are jealous of the boy
wonder. Hoppe is practicing for
his coming meeting with Sutton
and it was necessary for him to
have an expert to oppose him in his
practice games. Peterson, the well
known st. Louis player, has con
sented to act as his opponent.
