EIB1RT's BIG sHoRrHoRH HALE


der the auspices Of the Ebert CouL-
ty Shorthorn Breeders association
at Ebert. Wednesday. October 27.
While the weather cleared We'd
nesday morning and the day proved
ideal for the holding of the gale
many from a distance who hadsigni=
fed their intention OF being present
, gave up the up idea OF attending
when the snow and rainstorm Of
Tuesday afternoon and evening made
motoring rather uncertain.
| The attendance was large from
Ebert and surrounding counties and
practically all OF the cattle sold to
stockmen and ranchers from nearby
points. While they brought fair
prices many OF the animals offered
did not bring their true value and
doubtless would have sold for much
more had not the storm interfered
with the outside attendance. The
animals offered were of good average
quality ad some splendid individuals
were included.
Among the buyers were a num-
I Aer of ranchers who purchased in
his sale the first registered Short
lorns they ever owned and who viii
,se them as foundation stock for
breeding herds TO be added later
The consignors. while not realiz-
ing as much for some of the stock az
they had hoped to secure, are very
| we'll pleased that the good cattle Of
| fered are to remain close 10 home,
| many OF them to help establish new
herds OF breeding Shorthorns whose
owners will undoubtedly be future
!, customers for more and better cat
lie.

yerage rice of s155 per head. The
