By WILLIAM R; SANBORN.
HE members of the Palladium Farm Sale Travel club now have a real treat in store. We are to attend two sales this beautiful winter daysales miles and miles apart Our route Ilea over well kept
roads and takes us through three Ohio cities the city of New Paris, an important old town of six hundred population; West Manchester, a metropolis that is possibly a little larger, and Castine, with at least a hundred soule, when all are at home. Candidly, we haven't had time to count the people living in these towns, so we are guessing. Perhaps you hadn't thought of it Just that way, but It is true, neverthe. les, that these old towns are little worlds of their own making. They stand apart like planets in space, though few and brief the intervening
stance, and a half dozen harrows, several wheat drills andr planters, rakes and fanning mills. The bidding was brisk and eevrything was marketed in record time. Next came the sale of live stock, now the most Interesting feature of every sale. Prices Paid for Sheep. Forty-five head of sheep were sold. One pen of five ewes, with lambs less than a week-old at their sides, brought $105; amaher pen of 7 ewes sold at $140. Eight likely looking Shropshire 2 year olds also sold at $20 per head, the highest price realized on sheep. U. O. Trump of Arcanum bought the ewes with lambs and one other lot. Two showy bucks sold at $10.75 each. William Piles, also of Arcanum, paid $140 for seven ewes, while Walter Slade, his neighbor, got a bunch at $17 per head. Hogs brought good round .prices. J.
M. Ratliff paid $55 for a sow and four
miles of separation. In other respects , tiny piglets; also $82 for two medium hv nro All nne rnmmimltv- united in i Si2e SOWS. I. W. Miller, of Castine.
everything affecting the common weal, j bought three bows at $51.50 each, and
They are .first, of all,' proud of the wealth of tobacco, grain, hay and live
stock produced in their individual townships; proud, too, of the quality of their schools and well-kept roads over which the children go comfortably to and fro in warm conveyances in wet and stormy weather. Surely, they have plenty to boast of and much to be thankful for. Our travel club will enjoy meeting them at today's sales, for truth to tell, these Ohioans also belong to the Palladium Farm Sale Travel club and are loyal supporters of this paper. , Let us Journey to the J. S. Gower and S. F. Hubler sales. As the farm comes into view a field full of vehicles of all descriptions Is sighted. The roadway is also lined with autos and buggies and the sale grounds and barns are overflowing with visitors; crowds surround the stock pens and are lined up along the large display of implements and farm tools. It's going to be a great sale. Lunch in the Tobacco Shed. . The ceiling of our lunchroom is composed of tobacco; leaf tobacco in "hands," mellowing and drying for cigarmakers' use. They raised a lot of tobacco on this farm last year. But you won't mind the tobacco overhead, nor the clean straw under foot the lunch is the thing. Let us enjoy that first and then take in the sale. There are horses and mules on the sale bill, also hogs and sheep, hay and feed and a raft of harness, implements, wagone. buggies and whatnot. The songs of the auctioneers will be interesting. The first sale of importance was that of a McCormick binder that has been properly cared for. That explains why Charles Ditmer paid $180 for it. Prior to the sale of implements a lot of odds and ends were offered; incubators, cream separators, harness and all sorts of little things, selling at from a dime up. The display of implements' was Impressive. There were ten plofers T of various kinds, j for in-
a few ran snotes at various prices.
The hogs didn't, last long, too many I
were eager to buy and took them in -bunches. Joshua Foreman, of Arcanum, was a liberal buyer. ' Among other things he picked up was a cow at $110. Perry Gower was a lively bidder and had a lot of purchases to big credit on the salea sheets when ready for settlement Among the buyers of cows: Albert SUer, one at $97.60; and Sylvester McCabe, another at $177. Ed Bfues paid $90; Larry Rush, $109; Mrs. Ira McOrlff, $105; Noah Charles, $83; and Ora M, Cowen went as high at' $125 for his cow, the top c( the sale. Horsea a Little Slow. The demand for horses was "nominal," nor was there a hunger for mules. A team of mules brought but $136, the auctioneer stating that he was selling one and donating the other, at that price. A hansome young bay gelding was bid in at $170 by Luther Snyder as good speculative investment. Eight bead of horsea and cne team of mules went under ' the hammer. No corn, except a little lot for eeed, was sold, but a lot of good mixed hay brought $19.50 per ton, and about 200 , bushels of prime oats brought average sale prices. Among the many names appeared on the sales sheets -we noted: George Hcrine, Walter Slade, Jay Clark, Earl Clay, B. O. Hurd, F. Eubank,. John, Shaffner, Lay Stutz, Luther Lents and O. C. Strickler. Any farm sale bringing in $5,735 is classed among the . big ones and the
Qower sale is entitled to that distinction. Col. W. E. North and Guy Ketzenberger, of Greenville, Ohio, were the auctioneers, and L. W. Westenbaker and P. C. Fellers, of Castine, acted as clerks. The sal began at 10 Mid ran without Intermission until 4 O'clock. The 8. F. Hubler tale. The Hubler farm sale means retirement from tne farm and a new home in Florida, for the beenfit ot Mrs. Hubler's health. A sale of this character always brings .out a host ot women who are interested in getting bargains in furniture and house furnishings. This explains the large attendance of ladles, not only from country homes but also from New Paris, the Hubler farm being located close to that town. Very little live stock was offered, nor a great deal ot grain or feed, the farm consisting of but 20 acres. The sale began at 1 o'clock and It was trowing dark when Col. Ira Buhrman, of New Paris, the auctioneer, an
nounced that everything on sale had been disposed of. Fair prices were realised, taking the sale as a whole.

Ash Contract Accepted Vitkoet Fight ct Oxford
OXFORD, O., Feb. 3. Opposition t the installation of electrlo current U be furnished by Robert 8. Ashe, ol Richmond, Ind., Is fast disappearing here, and it Is now believed that th action ot council In accepting Kir Ache's bid will be permitted to stand unassalled. One of the chief points brought out by the opposition to the closing of th plant was that it had kept the water works In funds when that plant was known to be non-supporting; but this point has been knocked out by the production of figures to show that the waterworks would never have needed help had the electric lisht plant paid for the 750,000 gallons of water used every month. Indications are now that the Ashe contract will be closed without a fight in the courts.
