PROSPECT HORSE INDUSTRY The people of Prospect always know when H. D.

From September 23, 1904 to September 23, 1904 he has shipped 665 horses to New York and has sold 340 Iowa horses besides a large number of cattle. The year 1905 with Mr. Beavers starts out with two very busy weeks he has sold and shipped in that time 117 animals and will ship another car load from Perrysville Saturday October 25. In all his dealings with buyers and sellers Mr. Beavers has at all times been upright and above board in every instance carrying his agreements and contracts out to the letter, and by so doing has gained the confidence and esteem of all interested in the horse business placing him among the prominent horsemen of the state. His business is one of the leading industries of Prospect bringing many dollars to the town which otherwise would go to other and perhaps less deserving markets. Mr. Beavers contemplates another sale at Prospect in the near future due notice of which will be given. In the meantime if you wish to buy or sell good horses see or address him at Prospect.
