SAGE BROTHERS HAD ANOTHER GOOD SALE.
Sage brothers’ sale of Big Type Poland Chinas held on the Sage farm in Jordan township October 15 drew a large crowd and waa-thF'best of the three sales the boys have held. Their large lowa bred herd boars had many admirers and the large littlers in the sale showed their true value. The sale totalled $5,159.50. Eleven head brought almost $1,500. The top sow brought $227.50. The top boar brought head went to Lake county, twelve head to White county, six head to Illinois,- twelve head to Benton county, eighteen head to Newton county and the rest to Jasper county. ■ The boys say: “We sold a few of our best sows, but have others just as good or better and we also have the very best gilts from sows sold to take the place of their mothers.” Next year they hope to have enough to sell some privately and also have another sale. They invite anyone interested in their Poland Chinas to visit them at any time or send them their name and address to be placed on their catalogue mailing list.
