cattle. “I feel we come out a
little better when a commis
sion man takes time to deli
beiate with the ultimate buy

Rishel related that he began
farming 20 years ago and
bought 20 head of choice
steers at Lancaster Stock
Yards for 15 25 cents a pound.
He farms 115 acres on his
own farm and rents an addi
tional 100 acies.
The se\en farmers at the
meeting were in general agree
ment that the commission men

is favored by the commission
man because the two work
closer together than the fann

Robert Heilbion, piesident
of the Lancaster Livestock Ex
change said any commission
man worth “any fi action of
his salt” iv ill get the best price
for cattle that he is able to
get.
