VACCINATION
We repeat last week’s plea to
all ranchers who have not had

butcher steers and heifers meet-
ing a good demand.

Prices in all classes were low,
especially on-the lower grades
where the demand was poor.
Good, properly fitted cattle will
always sell well, but the lower
grades have sold very badly this
Fall.

The following prices are on
offer this week, subject to de-
mand: Good to choice steers 17-
18; common to medium steers
15-17; stockers and feeders 12-

NOTICE

The Garbage Collector is having trouble
collecting garbage on account of drums, bottle.
necked oil cans, and cartons being used to de-
‘posit garbage in for collection by: him.

Oil drums with the top smaller than the
body are difficult to get garbage out of, cartons
absorb moisture and the bottoms fall out letting
the contents fall onthe ground or if the contents |-
are too wet freeze to the ground and cannot be
lifted, oil drums when full are too heavy and
cannot. be lifted into a truck by one man.

If a platform is built that the garbage truck
can back up to, about 3% feet high, the drums
will be emptied. Otherwise none of the above
containers will be picked up or emptied.
