DUNLAP AND SONS we do all we can to enhance your profit or minimize your loss. How do we do it? The answer is in the way all livestock consignments are expertly sorted and handled whether those consignments are fat cattle, veal calves, feeder pigs or fat hogs. The result is LESS SHRINK. First of all, every consignment of feeder pigs, veal calves and fat hogs is weighed upon arrival. So, with LESS SHRINK, and at present prices, this means MORE DOLLARS for you the con signor. Secondly, ail fat cattle are assigned large pens con signment is kept separate. With large airy pens and water available the result is LESS SHRINK.
