Putter Creek Beef.
J. C. Lonargan, buyer tor the Frya-t
Bruhn company of Prattle, shipped oo
head of beef cattle Monday which he
purchased on Butter creek. The prices
re ranging from 4', to 4l4 cents per
pound for steers.
There are several flue bands of steers
n the Hutter creek country," said Mr.
Lotwrgsn to the Tribune, "but the
ranchers are not disused to sell just
now, as they vsh to realise better
price. There are about Hoi head of
teeisinthe Baylor Johnson and Mc
Carlby holding, mlijcli are in excellent
condition. By June all these will be
practically disposed of, but not, I think,
at a much higher figure than is being
aked at the prettent time. Another
reason why the ranchers are not in a
hurry to sell is that they have plenty of
feed to last them until spring, end
within the next two months they be
lieve they will be able to add to the
value of their stock."
