SOLD $47,000 WORTH OF HOGS In One Record-Breaking Shipment for Indianapolis. Crawfordsville, August 29. —A. Wilbert Breaks of this county last week sold one of the largest consignments of hogs ever recorded at the Indianapolis stock market. Last spring he purchased about 1,000 head of hogs for feeding purposes, intending to properly care for them so that at an early season they would be ready for the market. The time arrived last week, and Mr. Breaks loaded them into 14 stock cars and shipped them over to the stockyards. One buyer bought the lot, 1,000 of them, and paid $47,000 as the purchase price. Wlhen he looked at them he remarked that “to see one hog was to see all."
