high grade Guernsey heifers, all 1915
or better, and all bred to registered
Guernsey sires. These were shipped
to Minot early in the week, accom-.

gave the animals perfect care. The
heifers were kept in yard and barn
not far from the Minot Flour mill

thousands of the residents of Minot

day of the town herd boy is past and
