Rockcastle County at last has
home market for live stock
which Is a great asset to the
county. Monday April III, the
first sales were made in the new
pens at Mt. Vernon. Every
one was very much surprised at
the interest taken and shown in
the live stock market. Cattle,
hogs, mules and horses we've on
the market at good prices both
for buyer and seller.
This first market has shown
the people OF Rockcastle County
that County Stock Pens are valu'
bic aud that better live stock is
in demand.
Better bulls. bucks, bosrs,
jacks aud stations are now being
looked forward 10. Better sires
means better live stock-We hope
that some of our neighboring
counties will bring us some pure
bred registered shorthorn bulls
to be sold and remain in county.
Rockcastle wants the best sires
in the live stock line-She wants
registered sires-sires with blood.
