OVER $12,000 NETTED AT THREE WAYNE COUNTY FARM SALES

By WILLIAM R. 8ANB0RN The farm home of the late John H. Kepler Ilea plcturesequely along the shaded banks of a pretty stream of clear water, which looks as If it might be the home of various fish, and probably is. The farm, which lies two miles north of Cambridge City, in Jackson township, presented a busy scene on Monday, the house and grounds being thronged by friends present to attend the administrator's sale for the settling up of the estate. Mr. L. S. Bowman, formerly auditor of ' Wayne county and now a deputy in the office of the state auditor at Indianapolis, was the administrator, and was also son-in-law of the deceased. A Lot of Corn on Sale. About 2,000 bushels of corn was on . sale, of which 600 was classed as "old," as it was left over from the 1917 crop. This was all purchased by Torn Kepler at $1.74, the top price paid for corn. Alex Hannen opened the ball of 1918 corn by buying 200 bushels at $1.70, the next paying $1.66 for a second lot of 200 bushels. Chas. Hooer went as high as $1.65 for 100 bushels. George Shafer got loo for $1.60, while Quin Leapley was still more fortunate in buying 100 bushels at $1.65. The corn was in different cribs and must have appealed to buyers as being of differing qualities, or there was more corn than was urgently needed, judging from the downward ecale of prices. For instance, S. Lannerd got his first 100 bushels at $1.47, and the next lot at $1.43. Charles Runnel bought 100 bushels at $1.40, but this did not prove to be the bottom, for Frank Lindeman secured 400 bushels at from $1.35 to $1.39, taking all (that was left - Five bushels of Little Red Clover seed sold in bushel lots at from $25 to $26.50, the first bidder paying the top price. Col. Reid got his bushel for $26, and Charles Shafer paid but $25 for a like amount. But four head of horses were put up .and two bay geldings which brought less money when sold separately, sold as a team for $457.60, Webb Rummel being the successful bidder. Hogs Sell Well. Several brood sows and gilts sold at fair average sale prices, as also did 17 shoats of varying weights. A little more money would most likely have been realized had the hogs been "immune." Elbert Sarver got two fine sows at $52.50; Cyrus Gilbert secured two others at $44, and R. Lamberson got two more at 'the same price. Clessie Iaskett secured the choice of one pen of shoats at $16.25 per head; Floyd Gilbert bought two fine gilts at $34.50 each. The top on cows, $71.50, was paid for a Shorthorn. Clessie Haskett paid $63.50 for his choice of red cows and $55 for a promising heifer. Russell Lamberson got two nice heifers for a total of $64.60. The sale, which netted $5,736,. was conducted by Vanderbeck & Son, of New Lisbon, auctioneers; J. C. Dodson of Cambridge City, as field clerk, and R. H. Rissler of Cambridge City, who represented R. A. Hicks, as settling clerk, Mr. Hicks being unavoidably absent Some farm implements were sold, also a 12 h. p. gasoline engine. The latter brought $100, which was paid

by Tom Kepler, who will not have the trouble of moving it from the farm. The ladies of the Pleasant Hill Aid society served the lunch and we judge that 200 is a modest estimate of the number of lunch tickets sold. The CoHlne-Davenport Sale. The J. W. Collins and B. R. Davenport dissolution of partnership sale, was held on the Davenport farm on Monday afternoon. This is fine winter weather, admittedly, but even so, it isn't . exactly suited to picnic or basket lunch parties. The Davenport home, it will be remembered, was burned several months ago, and there being no place to serve lunch from, an afternoon sale was almost imperative. The Davenport place Is located a mile and a half east of Centerville, on the National road, and some town visitors came out on the traction cars. Livestock Sens Well. Eighteen head of cattle went under the hammer, and a good Jersey cow brought the high dollar, or $84 rather, to be exact Walter Rohe, living near Centerville, will have the privilege of milking that Jersey in the future, for we scarcely think his wife will wish to deprive him of that great pleasure. In our long and varied experience we have never discovered a farm wife who applied for a divorce because her husband insisted on doing the milking, fourteen times per week. Milking conduces to early rising, brings happiness, and milking and happiness in combination result in cream and butter and cheese, the prices on which have been beyond rubles, during recent days. Another lucky cow buyer got three head at from $60 to $72 each, and Arthur Curme signed the check in payment Clyde Endsley, south of Centerville, paid from $36 to $52 for three Shorthorn heifers. Millie Brumfiel got four head at from $45 to $55 each. The only hogs offered were 27 Chester White shotes, which were closed out to Tom Ryan and Arthur Curme. Mr. Curme also got all the hay put up at his bid price of $20. There wore about 7 tons of it. Between 400 and 600 bushels of corn all went to one buyer. Robert Boval got his irst 100 bushels at $1.41, but competition made him pay $1.50 for the balance. . Two head of horses brought $165 and $79, the first a gray mare, being bid in by George Fields, the second by A. C. Dickson. Henry Toschlog paid $46 for a yearling block colt Sale Foots Up $2,460. The clerk of the sale, Mr. Jesse Wiechman, of the Dickinson Trust Company, states that the sale netted $2,460, and while this does not rank with the Collins-Davenport sale among the big ones, it does classify it among the "good" sales, in view of the limited number of offerings. Forest Meek and Simon Weddle, of Richmond were the auctioneers. W. P. Krom Sale. The W. P. Krom sale of Registered Big Type Poland China hogs, and some fine dairy cows, was held at the Krom farm on the Williamsburg pike, near Richmond, on Monday.. This was a good sale, the sows averaging $84 and the cows selling at an average of

$85 per head. A number of breeders from other states were purchasers. The sale was put over by Col. Tom Conniff and Dempsey Dennis, as auctioneers, and' Walter Farlow and H. J. Hanes were the clerks. The sale ran over $4,000, which was a goodly sum, in view of the limited number of offerings.
