FIRST LIVE STOCK
SALE A SUCCESS
Local Purchasers Benefit by Opportuni
ty Of Buying Pure Bred
Stock, 49,

. The first sale of pure bred cattle ant
hogs by the Marshall County Live STOCK
Breeders Association was held last Fri
day and Saturday in the live stock
pavilion erected last summer at the
fair grounds in this city by the asso
citation. The attendance at the sales
was very good and altho the prices Sc
cured were rather low for the quality
of stock offered, the sale may be said
to have been very successful from every
standpoint. The low prices may be at.
trlbuted to the unsettled and stringent
money market at the present time
which evidently prevented many who
wished to secure the foundations for
pure bred herds from bidding. These
conditions also, undoubtedly, accounted
Tor the absence Of buyers from distant
sections, which fact was fortunate for
local investors who were thus enabled
to secure animals Of first class breed
ing at their own prices Most of the
animals sold will remain in this Sec
ton OF the Red River Valley and con-
sequently will continue to be assets of
the valleys live stock industry. The
introducing Of a number Of new herds
OF pure bred live stock in the valley is
one Of the important results Of the sale
and is a matter of great significance
1t means greater interest in promoting
the welfare and progress of the live
stock industry in this locality and that
means more prosperity for all.
At the opening Of the hog sale on
Friday F. A. Green, who was elected
representative of Marshall county in
the state legislature, was given the, op-
portunity to thank the voters for his
election. =
