'DODDRIDGE AND JOHNSON FARM SALES NET TWENTY THOUSAND

By "WILLIAM R. SANBORN Any plain, everyday farmer, who , can put up 220 bead of surplus live stock at his farm sale, is pretty well fixed, dori't-you think? Well. Just that kind of a sale was pulled off by M. D. and Irvln Doddr Jge, father and ' son, on Wednesday. The Doddridge , farm is located 3V& miles northwest of Brownsville, and about a mile east of Robinson's chapel. Nineteen head of horses. 66 of cattle, 130 of hogs and 16 of sheep, comprised the listed total, and every head was Bold. . Although a few farm tools were offered .this was essentially a live stock sale. No hay or grain was put up; they have plenty of stock left to eat it at homo. Ten bushels of clover and 5 of timothy seed went at good prices. They have plenty of good, warm barn room, hog houses, etc., on this farm and everything sold gave evidence of proper care and liberal feeding. Horses Bring Good Prices. Among the cream of the offerings in the way 'of horses were a team of fine young sorrels, for which Bert Dunlap paid $450. Next among the "toppers' was a pair of black mares which struck Arnold Dailey's fancy, at an expense of $345. Chauncey Bryan thought well enough of a handsome bay mare to buy her at $250' - ' ,'.. The offering of 56 head of cattle, of 'vXl ses, provided a wide selection. A choice polled cow brought the highest price in the cow list, $156. Several cows brought from $100 up to $125, among them a number of good Jerseys and blacks. , , There was considerable competition

for hogs, as is the rule, regardless of the price of corn or of. fluctuations in the livestock markets. No exceptionally high prices were paid but every nog Bold brought at least a fair figure. Maynard Erb got two fine Big Type Poland sows at $55 each, one at $72, and two others for $D0. Roy Lason brmeht ctrht anwi anil o-flt. at tmm waagaav vaQHV W.VW MS-SU gB)VU BBj M $39 to $43 per head, and a few Bhotes at various prices, depending on the age and weight. Mrs. Kate Davis bid In a pen of eight shotes at $19 per head, while Joe Helms got .18 at from $13.85 to $16.25 each. Peter Ryan, Clarence Braddock and Charles Long had a lot of hogs to settle for at the close of the sale. Mr. Ryan; bought one pen of seven shotes at $18.20; Charles Watt got off for less money, getting eight little ones for a total of $48. John Null Invested in eleven sows and gilts, paying from $40 up to $53.25' for choice of various pens. V. Snodgrass, Will Maize and Charles Connor were also buyers in the hog lot. When the clover seed wastput up R. Hamilton got busy. He bid it up to S2S ner bushel for recleaned . seed and got five bushels of the ten sold. The price dropped down to $24 for small lots of the remainder. But a few implements were offered, an OilWer sulky plow which went to J.' O.

This is the most profitable way to serve, undoubtedly, and the ladies get more money for their time and donations, than when serving a dollar dinner for 25 cents. The chapel ladles present were Mrs. Ada Weiser. president; Mrs. I

Ralph Farr. Mrs. Oliver Fiant, Mrs. Homer Calloway, Mrs. Lambert Funk, Mrs. E.-J. Wright, Mrs. Paul Wright, Mrs. Alta McDanlels, Mrs. Rank and the Misses Bernice and Effe Wright, Just an even dozen in all. OVER $11,000 TAKEN IN The Doddridge farm sale not only ranks among our list of good sales but also among the largest ones. The net was $11,146.70, and we have no doubt that the buyers who contributed believed their money was 'well spent. This means that everyone was satisfied and that kind of a sale, large or small,' is the best kind of a sale to hold and a record to make. Among the buyers not previously mentioned may be named: R. T. Kendall, Charles Redd, James Plankenhorn, T.,L. Wilson, John Relford. Walter Relford, Carl Carter and T. E. Moffett. . The Bale was conducted by Col. Tom Conniff, assisted by Wm. Flannigan, of Connersville, a widely known auctineer. Joe Burris did the field work as clerk and Chas. Johnson, of Liberty was cashier. " ED JOHNSON'S BIG SALE V The offering at auction of 250 head of live stock at a farm sale is bound to attract considerable attention, at least from parties interested in pick- . ing up desirable selections to add to their own herds, or work animals. The crowd may not be very large at

such sales, . depending on weather, number of sales on same date, etc., but those who do attend usually mean business. This was the case at the Ed Johnson live stock sale on Wednesday. The majority of those present came to buy something and all got a chance to, particularly. In the cattle and hog line, as these were 65 head of cattle and 150 of bogs listed In the sale bill. The offering included thirty brood sows;- full-blood Durocs, Chester Whites and a tew Big Type Polands. A raft, of shoats. of varloua weights and ages were eagerly picked up by feeders. Nets Nearly $9,000. While it. is true that a number of choice cows were not put up, the sale was a big one, the net being $8,625. Delmo Dresbach, Albert Hindman and Clem Conway persuaded the bidders with their Bilver-tongued oratory; Will Lewis, president of the First National of Williamsburg, was cashier of the sale. Among the first buyers in the cattle ring In the Bale tent was Simon Atwell, who paid $101 each for two Holsteln cows. Archie Brooks appeared early in the. contention. His cow cost him $75 ann when the hogs came to the front he was taxed s $19 per head for 14 Bhotes. Will Wldau got first choice of bows in one pen at $50. C. R. Milburn got a 28-head assortment of sows and pigs for $971 and Harrison Miller paid the cashier $1,077.35 for his bunch of hogs at close of the sale. C. W. Bundy and Charles Campbell invested $636 for cattle and hogs: Mr. Campbell having recently

I settled on the Bundy farm as lessee. George Davis was a buyer in the cattle ring, as was also Ed Starr, both of them chipped in at the settling clerk's . table liberally. Jack Mayer's three calves cost him $73, while C. J. Oler's fancy ran to hogs and gilts to the amount of $169. There were 23 head of sheep listed, to which O. J. Parker took such' a fancy that he scooped the whole outfit Rufus-Williams, living near Economy, took-home five calves at a cost of $284. Marshall Jeffers' taste in brood sows was exemplified in a check for $378; H. L. Mendenhall paid $364 for his various purchases. - Some of the horses evoked lively bidding. Jim Stevens ran a roan mare up to $162.50; J. H. Clements got a fine black mare at $150; Dock (Bookout bid $382.50 for a team of black geldings, and a team of mules sold at $236. Mr. Bookout was among the largest buyers all over the lot. ..The bracing air . conduced to enlarged appetites. This was right in line with the Ideas of the enterprising women of the Friends' church Ladies' Aid of Williamsburg, who were there to prevent famine conditions, for the benefit of their church. J. O. BALLINGER FARM SALE J. O. Balllnger, living about a half mile northwest of Economy, decided some time ago that there is money in the grocery business, more particularly bo if a man supplies food to the good people of Hagerstown, who are all said to be rich and careless of expenses. In such a case it would be flying in the face of fate not to get into the game, and that is just what the Ballingers, father and son decided. Later on, having made a deal for the Will Porter grocery in said Hag erstown, state' of Indiana, U. S. A. Mr.J Ballinger announced a farm sale; a cleanup of everything he would not need in his new home or new business, said 6ale to occur on Wednesday, Feb. 26. He invited all his relatives and friends to his farewell party and they were present in large numbers. The livestock offerings were limited to a couple of horses and eleven head of cows and calves. The top on cattle was $87, paid for a Jersey cow. No hogs were listed. Five tons of hay brought an average of $21 per ton, while three buyers paid from $1.48 to Influenza and kindred diseases start with acold. Don't trifle with it.
