There are only two breeders i Jin this State and their prices have, j been such that we did not find it wise ? j to buy from them. We are trying to j 1 j secure the cattle for you, and at the j ^ same time we are no;. willing that '< ycu should pay an exorbitant price. J? We are in communication now with ' some breeders in the West and I hope 1 we will be able to get what you want, i | at the price we think will prove sat- i isfactory.
