First Shipment of Cattle From Southern Montana to Coast Markets
A train transfer moved 20 carloads of Southern Montana cattle from the Oregon Short Line to the Northern Pacific at Silver Bow Junction, destined for Seattle. Cattle loaded at Monida Redock and Dillon were mainly fat cows selling $33 to $35 per head delivered to the railroad. Industry observers predict high prices, with 5 cents per pound at shipping points if forecasts hold, and note strong cattle feeding in Beaverhead Madison counties. Mutton sheep remain scarce with ongoing shipments to California and other coast states as lambs move to eastern markets later in the season.
