Timothy Seed Brought Flue Price This Year—$6 Per Bushel.

How would you like to have a few loads of timothy seed? Over at Francesville a few days ago the price was $6 per bushel, and Granville Moody and Whiter V. Porter sold their crop at that price. Mr. Moody had 175 bushels and got $1,052 for it. Mr. Porter’s seed amounted to 83 bushels and brought $496.72, an allowance being made for the sacks. Ross Porter was a partner with his father in timothy seed and took it from the Jordan township farm to Francesville in one load. It is not often that a farmer takes one load of any produce to market and gets a check for $496.72. A number of other farmers had some timothy seed, but not many of them got $6 per ton for it. Fred Llnback sold 60 bushels for $5.50 per bushel. ’f'**
