Arrendale Encouraging Farmers to Sell Veal Calves, April 2, 1926

Ship Veal Calves

County Agent Arrendale is asking for freight rates on veal calves and lambs to several cities of the Southeast. He realizes that there will be a good number of veals for sale within the next few weeks. He also believes that there will be a good number that will be sold as year-olds that would bring the farmer more money if sold as veals with a great saving of feed and trouble.

This is no new plan. Veals were shipped in car loads from Clay and Cherokee two years ago.

If interested, write County Agent Arrendale the age and estimated weight of the calves that you will want to sell. If enough are interested he will notify you of the date of the loading.
