Hereford Cattle FOR SALE IN ACCOUNT OF SETTLING UP THE ESTATE, I will offer at Private sale, any, or all of the Fine Herd of Hereford Cattle, so well known as the Naber-Lea Herd. Every animal will be priced, from the imported cows, down to male calves, at prices that will dispose of the herd in thirty days. Here is a rare opportunity of getting a start in full-blooded, registered cattle, at low prices. Read the Chicago papers, and see how often Hereford steers top j the market, around six cents, while the great bulk of cattle sell at about four and a half centsThese steers are sired by Hereford bulls. There is a great demand for these bulls by farmers who want to improve their calves. Somebody must raise full-blooded bulls. Why not you? You can sell a 12-months-old bull calf for as much as a 3-year-old steer would bring. Why not save two years of feed and care ? Start your son out with a few cows, and you will be surprised how soon the herd will be worth $5,000. Come and spend a day and night with me and take your time to it. This is better than buying at a combination sale. If you have idle money, and some shed room, be sure to winter some of these cattle. Plenty of time given on good notes. > I will meet you at TREATY 6 miles south of \\ ABASH, INDIANA, on BIG FOUR R’Y, if you will let me know. C. M. NABER, Executor. Rural Route No. 4, Wabash, Indiana.
