brought into Grand Forks have just
been received by Peter r. Werstlein.
the we'll known local meat dealer. the
cattle in question having been raised
on the famous John Fadden farm at
Arvjlla, this county.
One of the distinctive features of
this big herd is found in the fact that
the cattle have beer fed on North Da-
kota corn, and Mr.. Fadden declares
that their condition, at the time they
were brought to the city and butcher
ed. was such as to thoroughly demon
strate the value Of North Dakota corn
for fattening purposes.
The average weight of these Her.
fords is 1900 pounds. the result of
this seasons fattening efforts. Mr..
Werstlein will place the entire num-
her on the market. The cattle are
two-ycar-olds and make the finest
kind Of beef.
Mr.. Werstlein has also received
from the Fadden farm a large number
of corn fed pigs which promise to
make dainty eating.

that Paul never wrote or uttered a
