| The sale of Holstein and Guernsey
cattle at the Riverside Dairy, owned
by j. e. Elsberry, last Thursday, was
the most pretentious event of the kind
ever pulled off in Northwestern North
Dakota. While the number that at
tended the sale was many above the
] average, it seems that all We're seek
ing first-class cattle, as it took but
four hours for Col. Hecht to dispose Of
over $4,000 worth of cattle and horses.
Col. Hecht never appeared to so good
advantage. Regarding his work, Mr..
| Elsberry said: Il have attended some
I of the best sales held in the United
States, and I must say that the work
of Mr.. Hecht last Thursday has not
] been surpassed to my knowledge. Mr..
Hecht is a worker and he has the
crowd with him every minute
This is Mr.. Elsberry's second annu-
! al stock sale. People came from many
distant points and paid top notch pri-
ces for what they wanted as will be
noted in the following list Mr. Els

tised. The stock was in the pink Of
condition. Mr.. Elsberry has one Of
| the finest dairy barns in the country,
the keeping the barn nice and clean,
with plenty of good air and just the
right kind of feed, no doubt has had
much to do with the condition OF his
stock.
