The last carload of cattle shin

The last carload of cattle ship
ped by the Askov Live Stock
Shipping association brought a
total net sum of 81, 1888 and as
a carload goes out of here every
two or three weeks it counts up
in the aggregate.
One good fat yearling of Carl
Eckberg's in the last shipment
brought SIPS per 100 pounds or
a total of $48.57 less freight and
other expenses; a COW weighing
1920 pounds brought $3.50 per
100 or $3.50 less expenses.
Jens Mortensen received $500
per 100 on a 1890 pound COW, or
$77.40 less expenses which were
.$5.93.
The expenses run Acc per 100
pounds on cattle and 5bc per
100 on veal and hogs.
Good fat cows are bringing up
to about $3.50 per 100 pounds
and veal, one month old or more,
up to $3.50 per 100 for COED
ones. Some go as low as $500
per 100 when very skinny and
it hardly pays to make shipment
in such cases. The labor in
raising skinny and fat cattle is
much the same so a little more
investment in feeding properly
is undoubtedly a good invest
ment.
