NINE THOUSAND DOLLARS NETTED

AT UNION COUNTY FARM SALE

'Elf

By WILLIAM R. 8ANB0RN.

- The pleasant farm home of Mrs. Nellie 1 Pheanls, four miles northeast of Liberty, la Union county, was

the scene of a great gathering of

mends and neighbors on Wednesday. It Is seldom Indeed that a farm sale brings out bo many ladles as were

: present on this occasion. The ladles of the Hannah's Creek Christian . church were nearly all present, and 'erred the lunch, and it was a good

lunch. That they collected consider

ably over $100 was not surprising, in view of the crowd of buyers at the

sale. v

Owing to the recent death of her husband, Mrs. Pheanls decided that a

sale was Imperative and the friends

of the family were present in large numbers to help make her sale a success. Mrs. . Pheanls will now re

side . In Richmond with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Bennett, where her pretty little daughter will be a petted

grandchild. '

The sale took place on the old T. J.

Bennett farm, which had been pur

chased by other members of the Pheanls family, we are told. A Nine-Thousand Dollar Sale. After deducting some articles which were reserved for private sale, including an Overland car, the sale totaled $8,878.90. This ranks the Pheanls Bale among the "big" ones of the sale season in this vicinity. W. E. Bake and O. 8. Bake, father and son, of College Corner, were the auctioneers, and T. E. Rodefer and Guy B. Howren, of Liberty, Ind., were the clerks. Mr. Rodefer, who is connected with the Union County National bank, actei as cashier. It took about six hours to dispose of the hundreds of items comprising the offerings and the sale closed at 4 o'clock. Five mares and two horses, ranging from five to ten years old, sold for $1,494.50, practically $214 per head, which speaks well for their quality. Cliff Pheanls bid the high dollar on some of them.

E. E. Post, of Liberty, took 600

bushels of corn at $1.61, while L. C. Downer, also of Liberty, paid 11.66

for contents of crib No. 2, containing

between 350 and 400 bushels, estimat

ed. Hay sold at from $16.50 to $22, as

to quality,, about thirty tons going to

various bidders. ' Ninety Hogs Were Sold.

There was a liberal choice of hogs, ninety head of various ages, and of both Durocs and Big Type Polands, being listed. L. C. Downer paid $51 each for two sows; while others went con

siderably higher for mature animals. Chas. Ross paid $112 for two sows. A lot of little pigs welshing about fifty pounds caused some animated bidding among feeders. All hogs found quick and ready sale, showing that the great American hog is still in high favor, regardless, so far, of the ups and downs In price of corn. As a matter of Information it may also be stated that this has been the rule at all recent farm sales coming under the writer's observation, both In Ohio and Indiana. Fair prices were paid for cattle, of which twenty head were Bold. The top price was brought by a black Holteln cow, A. P. Creek paying $150 for her. Walters & son, of Brookville, Ind., was represented at the sale by Jacob Abraham, who bought one cow, one heifer and four steers for a total of 1528.50, a good high average. An extensive showing of agricultural Implements and a lot of good harness, hog houses, etc., added interest to the sale, also dollars. A "Brown make" wagon sold for $139 and a corn binder at $60. The usual assortment of plows, rakes, harrows and tools were disposed of quickly at satisfactory Igures in the main. The following named were among the buyers who settled at the close of

the sale: Ora Snyder, Perry Druley, Harry Greggerson, Sam Stevens, Will Finch, Ralph Woodruff, Henry Hawley, Chas Gavin, Herman McAdams, E. E. Post, Everett Little, Clifford Pheanls, T. J. Bennett, Ben Moss, Edw. Grimme,-; Lloyd Doner, Everett Lafarge, Clarence Witter, Walter Adams, Rollo Doty, Geo. Rankin, O. Anthony, Ralph Snyder, George Bennett and Wilbur Seal An ideal winter day and a congenial crowd assured, from the start, that the sale would be a social and financial success as it was.
