These gentlemen consist of James C Lonergan, representing tne racinu Meat Company, of Tacoma; L. Stub l.loflalrl rpnresentlnir Carstens Bros . of Seattle, and F. B. Ball, represent- lng Frye-Bruhn Co., or eeauie. Lonergan. Mr. Lonergan buys beef cattle alone.

These aro placed In good condition by spring and are shipped to supply tho first dpmands. And There Are Others. When It Is considered that these gentlemen are only three out of a large number of buyers and shippers who are engaged at this point, then one can see how difficult It Is to esti mate tho number handled from hero annually.
