I have a good deal to do, and look after, but have t let every thing take care of its self I have 10-3 year old steers, and 8- 2s good feeding Cattle, there is little demand for then, there has been some few lots sold for 3 cents, I would sell for 2 3/4 rather than hold over and feed. money matters are Very close here now, oats 15 c corn 20 c every thing is at bed
