If you have more cattle than you

Any cattle that are to be sold this
fall should go on the market while
they have the maximum grass fat.

against fowl pox or sore head.
With the price of eggs staying up
and the demand increasing we be

do. A case of sore head going

egg production for several weeks
just when eggs are the highest
