CATTLE BRING GOOD PRICES
Albert Hills Hereford Cattle Attract
ed Many Buyers and the Cattle
Sold Well.
What is considered the best cattle
sale that has ever been held in Mitch
ell or the surrounding country was
concluded Thursday afternoon when
Albert Hills dispersion sale of Here
ford cattle broke the record. That is
the judgment of a number of cattle
breeders who have attended q num-
Der of sales in years past. The sale
was conducted by George P. Bellows.
of Marysville. Mo-, and he was as
sisted in the ring by A. A. Lyle. of
Kingsley, Iowa. and G. G.. Storm, of
Aberdeen. The sale was held in the
heated pavilion. Buyers were pres
ent from all parts of the state. for
Mr.. Hills Hereford herd has q fine
reputation. The cattle averaged
$137.60 per head, and the total sale
amounted to $7,685. The amount of
this sale put to route the idea Of some
of the cattle breeders in the north
ern part of the state who assert that
cattle will not bring good prices at
the January stock sale of the South
Dakota L i've Stock Breeders Assoc
citation. It is evident from this sale
that there is some money left in the
country and a greater desire than
ever to build up the herds which have
just got fairly started.
The heaviest purchaser at the
sale was Henry schacht. Of Okaton.
one Of the new towns out On the
Black Hills extension of the Muwau-
kee road. He bought IL head Of
cows which cost him $2.5o6. and at
the conclusion Of the sale he paid for
