Last Tuesday the sales of pure bred Shorthorn cattle in the Divide district amounted to $11,000.. Learning that Elbert County and the Divide country was a Shorthorn 'center, Mr. E. O. Wheeler of ‘(lowa communicated with one of the local breeders as the prospects for a carload of heifers. After visiting the herds of several of he breeders a carload of yearling heifers wero purchased to fill an order to go to Souix City. This order consisted of 27 head gathered from hards of Alger Peterson, W. H Paul, Tom Roberts, Frank Evans and Jones Bros. These heifers averaged better than $230 a head. Stockmen In this county con sider this .order quite a boost because , of the fact that Divide Shorthorns go to lowa, the leading Shorthorn 1 State of the Union. On the same day a Cherry Creek breeder came ov»r into this county and purchasd 15 ..head o f two year old heifers at a cost of s2od each. This order also consisted of 0 year ling bull, making the totr.i sales for the day close to SI 1.000. The members of the Elbert County Shorthorn Breeders Association re. oort that their of female itock is nearly exhausted but bulls of all ags and of preferred blood lines can be had. | It is interesting to note that in a I recent questionaire sent out in Penn_ , sylvanla. in which the animals had , most affected the shorthorn breed In I the last half century were asked for, that the pedigrees of the herd head ers of a great many of the herds In this county named these animals In the foremost ranks A few of the 'animals named in'this questionaire I were.
