Livestock Sale is
Last Sunday;s junior livestock sale of beef, swine, and
sheep was another successful
repetition of this annual event.
Sponsored by: the Nevada
' County Purebred Beef Breed-‘ers Association, this sale got
off to a good start with a buyers’ breakfast. The smoothly
running sale garnered $14,738.96 for the twenty-nine
steers, twelve swine and fiftynine. lambs that had been
brought to sales quality by
the 4-H and F.F.A. youth.
The beef animals led off the
sale with an average prive of
39 cents a pound, Jim Drew’s
F.F.A. grand champion initiated the sale at 50 cents a
pound, and the 4-H grand
champion of Kathy Gollub was
not far behind at 45 cents.
_ The swine weré quite another
storys Prices were good at50
cents and 49 cents a pound for
the two top pigs of Gary Pfalmer and Tom Browning. But
the dignity of the sale broke
down at this point, when several of the swine refused to
cooperate and broke out of
the ring. Ringmen, 4-H youth
in their prim white uniforms,
handlers and bystanders gave
a greased pig type chase, accompanied by porky squeals
of the errant animals.
In the sheep sale, Steve
Paasch’s 4-H grand champion
$1.85 .a pound, and Lloyd McCabe’s F.F.A, champ $1.40.
