THREE VAYNE COUNTY SALES
By WILLIAM R.SANBORN Within stsht of the classic old town of Whitewater, named for the historic stream that onco supplied our early settlers with game? fish, a crowd of earnest men with cold feet, but warm hearts, fathered for a common purpose, on Friday morning. That their coats 'were wet . and. their nose . blue was but. a temporary Inconvenience and., not to be taken. Into account. There waa hot soup In the pot and plea on the table, and stacks of sandwiches to enjoy later on, near - comforting fires in a well warmed house, ...... - Right now, before we open up, the heart of our story to our. learned and critical audience, we are going to tell
the rascmating history or tne - spreaa and by jWhom provided. That's, correct "ladies nrsL"i gentlemen, so let's proceed.", . i .': 1!k :'Y v :: ; .Told the Women Their Troubles When Ozro Blose and D.E. Weller decided to have a sale it was discovered that neither of them could qualify as a, ook, and the multitude must be fed.- What to do? They very naturalty told their troubles to the ladles of ithe Christian church of Whitewater, who called a meeting to see what help could be given in this dire emergency. Well, anyway, these good women decided that It would be cruel to let men starve on a cold day and as the result of an executive session the following named ladles were present and served good things to eat: Mrs. John ! tooir. s Mrs. Ethel Blose. : Mrs. David
Weller, Mrs; Carrie White, Mrs. Chaa.J nrMf. Mn Maiirin mnf Mrs. Oran
Cates, and Mrs. Margaret Roll. - But long before lunch was served the auctioneers had warmed the crowd up, massed In the center of . the bis barn, where a wagon filled with harness. etc. was used as a rostrum. They
seheral)v ' sell the things piled into-
a wagon first and lucky it was on Friday that said wagon and bidders were sheltered from the gale. , j,; An Important Sale. '. The Blose-Weller sale was held on what is known as the Jesse T. Townsend farm, one mile south of Whitewater, on Friday. -The weather limit- ' ed the attendance to those actually Interested, so while the crowd was not 'large, buyers were there in plenty. ' Seven horses, 20 head of cattle and 64 head of hogs went over the block. The "display of Implements was not large but what was put up sold at face-value, as a rule. Charles Kirkman secured a Keystone hayloader in t first class condition at $66, and considered it a bargain. Mr. Kirkman also paid-67c for a lot of oats and 'J. 'M.. Burt got the balance at 65c. A : raft" et hay was sold. Shredded fodder sold at $12.0 a ton Three tons of timothy brought $20.50 and five tons "$l.BB.A'-lo4 of-mixed hay in Mr. Weller's barn sold to Oran P. Cates at $17.85 for five tons. Mr. Cates is to take possession of the farm on which the sale waa held, at once. Ozro Blose has been farming the place to date. Baled straw brought $7 per ton. M. - m Mt .in. 1

A number of Jersey cows were on the bill and these sold at from $50 up.; The top on brood sows, six Durocs. was $72.50. One pen of shotes Bold at $13.25 and another pen at $18.50 per head, or at least 20c per pound and up. The best team offered sold at $225, it was stated.

Jordan, of the American Trust and Savin, were respectively clerk and cashier of the Weller-Blose sale, which totaled $4,254.
THE RINGLEY-DRULEY SALE Tho most notable thing about the Steven Ringley and J. T. Druley combination sale was the number of brood sows with pigs at side, and the total number offered, 121 head. Eight Duroc sows with litters went under the hammer. j The sale was held on what is known as the John Decker farm, originally the old Charles Polly homestead. Tht farm home is one of the oldest within a thousand miles, possibly. The offering Included 121 head of hog?, 40 head of cattle and 8 horses, besides a lot of "plunder" and hay, fodder, etc. The present occupant, Steven Ringley, is to remove to a farm in Jay
county, near Rldgeville, and but five miles from Portland. Indiana. Mr.

Two fine steers sold to Rome Shurley at $102 each, and Jess Druley got a 2-year-old Shorthorn bull at $90. James Moore bought two horses, a bay mare at $205 and a gray gelding at $162.50. Joseph Toschlog, George Bullerdick. O. ..M. Long and Cliff Gard, were among the heavy buyers all over the lot. Adam Eby picked up a handsome 6 months bay colt at
$85.
partners exercised the right to bid. Jess Druley wanted a number of head
of live stock to be kept on tbe plaee and was a liberal buyer. Articles were also bought by Mr. Ringley to be taken to his new farm home. Col. Thos. Conniff auctioneered the sale, assisted by Homer Piatt. Frank Riser acted as clerk and Jesse Welch man, of tbe Dickinson Trust company, waa cashier of the sale. The sale totaled $6,250. GEORGE EARLY SALE , The sale at the George Early farm, three miles north of Centervllle, on Friday, ranks among the big ones, the net being $6,620. The attendance was limited,, "not a big crowd, but a good lot of buyers," as Mr. Early sized the crowd up. - And so it proved. The sale took place on what is known as the Joe Kempton farm, and the auctioneers, Hlndman and Dennis, had a busy day. Roy Means was cashier of the sale. , Horses sold at $160 to $235, hogs at $45 to $60 for brood sows, hay at $17 to $22 per ton, as to quality.' One choice cow sold at $140 and a "spanking team," as we used to say before the advent of the automobile, brought $485 under the hammer. Corn sold at $1.67 for top, and seed corn at $2.56 per bushel. A remarkable feature of the George Early sale waa the fact, as stated, that not a single note was' given by any purchaser, aU being paid for in cash or checks. In view of the size and character of the sale, with liberal time
provision in the terms, this is worth
This was a dissolution sale and both rspecial mention. It shows that Wayne
county farmers still have a little cur
rency of the realm to disburse.
