Ohio cattlemen organizing Hurricane relief
The Montgomery County Cattlemen’s Assoc. is aiding farmers and ranchers in Louisiana again. They have been hit for the second time this year and the fourth time in three years with a hurricane.
I would like to challenge all livestock association’s, whether it be cattle, horse or sheep to donate $100 each to MCCA’s Hurricane Relief Fund. We are not just feeding cattle but all types of livestock.

The Fellowship of Christian Farmers has joined forces with us again to help meet the needs of those in need. We deal directly with the farmers and county extension leaders to be sure the feed gets where it is needed. Every dollar that is donated goes to those in need and not a dime is loose to overhead expenses.

We had feed companies that we deal with directly, and fence supply companies that work with us and give us discounts ,because we are helping farmers in their area survive. We have over the last three years helped farmers throughout the Midwest and the South survive all kinds of storms. Send donations to: MCCA HAY Relief, Brookville Building and Saving Assoc., 510 Arlington Road, Brookville OH 45309.
