Sale of Cows Was Big Success-Prices Up to $110.

Dick Land, of Salem, found the people of Jasper county mighty anxious to buy the Jersey cows he brought here to auction oft and cows last Saturday brought from SSO to sllO. The top price was brought by the first cow sold and the bidding was spirited. Others brought between SBO and $95. Some of the cows were fine in appearance and he gave them the best recommendation. The increasing dairying interests in this county have created a big demaqd for better milk cows and the Jersey seems to be the most desired here.- Mr. Land is understood to have been very much gratified with the prices he procured and will probably hold another sale here before many months.
