At the auction sale yesterday for D. j.
Briggs at Williamstown, cows did not |
sell as high as at some previous sales,
but prices were considered to be fair,
considering the fact that cows were all
small and with one or two exceptions !
were due to freshen from the middle OF
January to the middle of June; they were
looking we'll, but were too small and too
far away in milk to tempt either farm
ers or cattle buyers. Prices ranged from
S35 to SOL. Young cattle, hogs and
poultry brought very fair prices. {. +.
