A Few of Our Records 
The highest priced beef steer ever sold in 
the world, “Advance” — $150 per cwt. — in 
the International Live Stock Exposition, 
December, 1900. Mind you, this is the world’s 
record for beef on the hoof. How^s That? 
The highest priced load of cattle Interna¬ 
tional Exposition, 1908 — $13.00 per cwt. 
Competitors sold the Grand Sweepstake 
Champions for $11.00 per cwt. BOWLES^ 
sale at $2.00 per cwt. higher than the Grand 
Sweepstake Champions. How^s That? 
The highest priced shorn yearling lambs 
on record up to June 15, 1909, a double deck 
at $9.00 per cwt. How^s That? 
The highest priced load of feeding cattle 
ever sold at Chicago—$7.35 per cwt. Inter¬ 
national Exposition, 1909 — BOWLES sold 
them. How^s That? 
BOWLES sold “Clear Lake Jute” Inter¬ 
national Champion Steer 1904 at $36.00 per 
cwt., $10.00 per cwt. more than competitors 
obtained for the 1903 champion steer and 
$11.00 per cwt. more than competitors obtain¬ 
ed for the 1905 champion steer. How^s That? 
“Yampa” the champion steer of the Den¬ 
ver Exposition, ’06 for $33 per cwt. and 
BOWLES also sold at the Exposition a 
carload of cattle at $10 per cwt. These 
prices were the highest ever paid for a sin¬ 
gle animal or a carload lot west of Chicago* 
How'^s That? 
A load of two-year-old steers for Escher 
& Ryan, Irwin, Iowa, December 3rd, 1909. 
Price $14.50 per cwt. The highest priced two 
year old cattle ever sold on any market. 
Not champions. How'*s That? 
Two loads of feeders out of the Interna¬ 
tional Exposition, ’07, (one took third prize 
and the other not a prize winner) at $4.85. 
This price was 50c per cwt. higher than a 
competitor got for the champion yearling 
feeders. Think of it! Feeders that did not 
take a prize selling for 50c per cwt. more 
than the champions. How^s That? 
February 10, ’08, in the face of the largest 
run of hogs on record—87,716 BOWLES top¬ 
ped the hog market twice. THINK OF IT! 
With all those hogs here BOWLES at the 
extreme top. How^s That? 
On March 11, ’08 BOWLES topped the hog 
market six times for six different patrons. 
Did you ever hear of such a feat before? 
How'*s That? 
BOWLES also sold March 30, 1908, Colo¬ 
rado lambs for Welker & Jepperson, Long¬ 
mont, Colorado, at $8.35 per cwt.; highest 
priced Colorado lambs at Chicago for 1908. 
BOWLES always leads in establishing 
record sales, and holds more high records 
than any Company in existence.
