Is THAT You, Mr, Jones?
Every day we receive phone calls and letters from stockmen asking for
our advice. Tom Brown, for example, wants to know when the best time will be
to sell his lambs, and Jim Smith has a load of hogs to consign. Will Wednesday
be better than Monday? And then there is Charlie Jones. He has a good load of
cattle, and he wants to know how the market will be next month.
We feel flattered, of course, that so many people contact lis. But then
again, there must be a good reason for all this. Maybe it's because we’ve been at
this business for 67 years. Or maybe it’s because we have specialists in every
department cows, bulls, stockers and feeders, tat steers and heifers, lambs, hogs,
and calves who have the ability, knowledge and experience to give you honest
advice and information.
So, do what Mr. Brown and Mr. Smith and Mr. Jones do. Call or write
us anytime. You will be glad you did.
