Is a perfectly been sold good one for baloney or hamburger and the owner has had to put out a lot of money to replace him, Last year the Extension Cattlemen Committee asked if the County Agent couldnt try to help this situation. After giving this some thought we are going to try a bull exchange pool. This means that at 2 p.m. this coming Thursday, Oct. 31, any cattleman who needs a new bull may obtain one by bringing his old bull to corral in Kanab Greenhalghs and exchanging him for one of the other bulls brought into the pool. The only restriction will be that the bull must be sound and able to grade a B or better I will have George Henderson from Utah State University with me to help check for soundness and for grade. If you know of any catleman who may not read this would you please inform them of this bull exchange pool I have a certificate in nrfy of fice stating that Kane County has been cleared as a brucellosis free county. Our catlemen are to be congratulated for being in the first of the state to achieve this. . It is thought that all but two of the counties in Utah will be cleared by the first of the year. It is a good thing that we did get on the ball in Kane County because of a new regulation that was a dopted Oct. 1 to go in effect on Oct 15. This regulation states that no breeding cattle shall be permitted to graze on the public range in the State of Utah unless they have been tested and found brucelosis free or orignate from a certified free county. guess that we just beat the gun on that regulation thank goodness. - one-thir- d 1!

We had a large crowd and a floor show was given to the theme of Harvest Moon". The group of 20 girls sang and Sue Brown danced. We are trying to buy white majorette boots. Anyone wishing to contribute to the' Lariettes please contact our president, Lolene McAllister. After this dance a Senior Junior party was held at Lonnie Wrights.
