makes q practice OF coming into this
section during the winter and buying
up cattle here and there and shipping
I them to his feed lot for fattening,
drove to the local stock yard a bunch
OF about SO animals expecting to- ship
them out at once. He has been UNI
able to get them shipped. all that time
4 the poor beasts have suffered In the
cold confinement Of the open stock
I pens. Their owner has done all that
can be done, III the way Of feeding and
caring for them, but has been unable
to find place In the city where so
large bunch could be sheltered. 1t
/ Is understood that arrangements are
! sought to be made whereby the cattle
can be driven into the country and
1 put under cover at some ranch. There
will be mighty little profit IN that
bunch of cattle when spring comes.
