Fred Lassman, Savonburg.* — Mr. Lassman is 

 located on a large farm that is well adapted to 

 cattle growing. He has been raising grades un- 

 der favorable conditions and has recently pur- 

 chased a dozen nice heifers and a good bull, his 

 intention being to grow into the business by sell- 

 ing off the grade end. Mr. Lassman is young, in- 

 telligent, a clear thinker, and makes a success of 

 whatever he undertakes. He will handle his 

 cattle in such a manner as to work constant im- 

 Ijrovement in the herd and local Shorthorn as 

 well as general live stock interests will be bene- 

 fited by his becoming a breeder. 



C. W. Beeman, Humboldt. — This herd was 

 established two years ago and Mr. Beeman made 

 several valuable additions at the 1920 sale in 

 Humboldt. His herd should become one among 

 the best in the county. Recent i^urchases include 

 a few splendid females of choicest breeding and 

 the excellent young bull Lord Mysie by Claude 

 Lovett's famous sire, Scotch Lord by Lord 



Telephone, Humboldt.
