Are Nearing Completion

Stables should be ready for

spokesman for the organiza
tion said this week.
The addition of more than

sales barn will make it pos
sible to move cattle easier
and faster during the weekly
sale, according to Frank
Dussinger, sale manager.
Dussinger said the work
men are making good pro
gress and the new pens
should be ready for use in
ahout a month to six weeks.
