Description The following includes the transcript and a video clip from an oral history interview with Mike Bachman.
Biographical/Historical Note The Ogden Union Stockyard was a key fixture in the largest livestock market west of Denver during its heyday from 1916 to 1971. The activities at the yard brought Ogden national attention as a livestock center. The rise of the livestock shows, auctions, etc. at the site spurred the local and regional livestock industry, thereby physically shaping the development of the agricultural landscape both near and far. This collection documents the history through photographs, newspaper articles, and oral histories.

Description The following is a video clip from an oral history interview with Mike Bachman. "When I was a young boy my father was always looking for something to make extra money and he started to deliver manure. He would go down to the Stockyards to shovel manure up and sell it to people to put it on their lawns. When I got to be 16, I thought that would be a good idea to have my own truck and I started to put an ad in the paper and called it, "Corral Number Five." And I sold manure, a half ton truck load of manure for $25."
