Interest in the Denver show this

object lesson for every producer of
market livestock.
The Hereford Champion street was
said by expert judges to be as near
the ideal beef type as has ever been
produced. At the age of twelve
months the animal weighed $40
pounds. His dressed weight was $40
pounds and the dressing percentage
$3.50. His economical production
of prime beef at an early age is
typical of the Hereford breed. Com
cattle at the age of three or
four years will weigh no more than
Hereford yearlings.
