Its success is reflected in the approval of over 2,500 Armstrong Ranch Santa Gertrudis cattle for classification by Santa Gertrudis Breeders International and the sale of cattle bearing our "Media Luna" brand to our Good Neighbors in 15 states ond 6 foreign countries.

Armstrong cattle will be shown and sold at the Pan-American Live- stock Exhibit, State Fair of Texas, in October. On November 11, we will sell at auction some of our finest breeding stock in the Pioneer Breeders' annual sale. We have a fine selection of herd sires and range bulls for sole at all times.

Its success is reflected in the approval of over 2,500 Armstrong Ranch Santa Gertrudis cattle for classification by Santa Gertrudis Breeders International and the sale of cattle bearing our "Media Luna" brand to our Good Neighbors in 15 states ond 6 foreign countries.

Armstrong cattle will be shown and sold at the Pan-American Live- stock Exhibit, State Fair of Texas, in October. On November 11, we will sell at auction some of our finest breeding stock in the Pioneer Breeders' annual sale. We have a fine selection of herd sires and range bulls for sole at all times.
