Montana seeks dairy stock from Websters network
George H. Webster chief of Montana dairy division has received six requests from barns clubs and banks to buy carload shipments of high grade dairy stock. He recently purchased Guernseys for Helena Girls Vocational School, starting with 20 head and ending with 22 calves. Webster cannot travel further but will share available stock information. Guernseys and Holsteins top the requests as Montana and nearby states enjoy abundant hay and feeds, boosting dairy cattle demand. The American Guernsey Association noted over 1 400 purebred and grade Guernseys placed in Idaho this year.
