Feeder Calf
Sale Planned
F or October 27
Noble County
To Participate
At GAINESVILLE

The directors of the Guernsey
Noble Feeder Calf Association
are sponsoring two feeder calf
sales, one which will be held
October 27 at the GAINESVILLE COM

at Coshocton, October Is.
Counties which will participate
in the sale to be held at Zanes-
vile are Muskingum, Morgan
and Noble. All calves from Guer-
nsey, Harrison and Coshocton
counties will move to the Cos
hocton sale.
This year only steer and heifer
calves will be accepted by the
feeder-calf association officials.
In previous years, yearling steers
had also been accepted.
Approximately 500 calves in
each sale will be sold. There will
be brisk demand for the calves
because of the shortage of the
cattle on the Western ranges.
The production farms are holding
back on the sale of their cattle
because they are scarce since
they are being moved mostly to
the Western coast.
All calves will be delivered at
the sale house one day previous
to the day of the sale where they
will be weighed, graded and
ready for the sale which will
get underway early the next
morning.
Consignments for the calves
may be obtained from the Noble
county Feeder Calf Association
directors, Brady Archer, Alva
Watson, Luther Schramm or at
the office of the county agent,
Floyd Henderson. Guernsey
county Feeder Calf directors are
John Craig, Roy Shugart, Paul

p. m., Sunday.
