HORSES MAKE GOOD SHOWING AT WILLARD COX FARM SALE

BY WILLIAM R. 8 AN BORN When we wandered Into the great tent at the Wlllard Cox tale. 1 miles weat of Farmland, on Thursday, we espied a wee toddler trying to get under the ropes into the cattle ting, In which a lot of yearlings were going under the hammer. No, she didn't get through the crowd Into danger, for close behind her came a very girlish looking young woman who was more anxious to know what was going on In the sale ring than was the baby and with reason. After we had Interviewed the little one the mother explained that the baby was "haying a stock sale today" and wanted to get Into the ring to daddy. And who was "daddy T Wlllard Cox, no less; and this was Mrs. Cox, and their baby girl. Well, sir, you never can tell how young some boys will marry, now can you? Why that boy looks as If Just a bit ago he had quit playing marbles, and here he was operating his fourth etock sale, and the proud head of a family, bless you. It's dollars to cents that but for that wife and daughter Wlllard wouldn't have held his first sale yet. Responsibility and ambition builds character and the desire to accomplish. Jot that down In your note books, young gentlemen farmers, and plan for the future prosperity, in the days of your youth. Ob, yes. It means work Just as everything worth while means concentrated effort with a purpose. But the earlier you get started the eonner you are likely to arrive, If you keep up the pace, regardless of obstacles and of temporary failure to succeed. A Combination Sale. We have spoken of this as the Wlllard Cox sale, but this is not the whole truth, and we like to be exact in our statements. The fact Is that Wlllard Cox and Ellsworth Hunt were Jointly interested and the sale bills so state. O. E. Ross, of Winchester, and Clem Conway, of Moreland, coaxed, persuaded and hypnotized the crowd into spending $8,637.50 for which J. O. Bly, cashier, and C. O. Bales, clerk, accounted. Both of these gentlemen are connected with the First National at Farmland, and are mighty handy at figures. . The top on cows was brought by a "brlndle;- L. O. Bowers got her at 9118.60. There were 25 head of cattle put up, mostly young stock, though a few Jersey and Shorthorn cows were listed. Cattle of all ages brought fair prices and a quick clearance was made. In the Hog Ring There were 85 broqd sows, principally Durocs. some with new families on their hands, to tempt buyers. Added to these were 100 head of feeding shotes averaging close to 100 pounds. It didn't take a great while to dispose of the hogs, the feeders being sold by the pen. B. F. Clouser &

Son, of Modoc, were very liberal buy-j

ers of hogs, and so, too, was Troy Fuckett. Morey Gleason Invested $161.50 in pigs and Rollin Harper spent $82.50 for one sow and piglets. The bulk of the offering went to the two first-named buyers, with odd sows and gilts and pens going to various men who Injected a little competition into the sales ring. Owing to conditions in the bog markets of the country no hogs

have been given away, at any sale, of late. A Lot of Good Horses 8old A handsome pair of dark bay geldings attracted considerable attention when ushered Into the horse ring. They looked like $500 as they showed their paces, but the crowd did not agree with the auctioneer, for they went at $417.50. This, as far as we recall, was the top on teams and Orlie Sheppard was the buyer. A pair of sorrels sold singly for $322.60, and combined at $347.50. Alden Pedro bid in the second team put up, a pair of 7-year-old sorrel mares at $400. Pearl Meeks paid $382.50 for his team, a mare and a gelding, after which Will Ward Jumped in and grabbed a dappled 6-year-old with plenty of style, for $110; after which Floyd Young secured a 3-year-old bay mare for $97.50. Ross Tingley ran a bay gelding up to $200 but It got away from him when put up as the other half of a team, which was sold to Pearl Meeks. A. J. Love, who had been a persistent bidder, finally went the high dollar and got a good work horse for $120; and Will Ward got the next offering at $175. -" Among the teams sold was a pair of good ones to Orvllle Wolf at $350, and a team of grays at $302.50. Raymond Ryan got a stylish looking black mare for $163. W. T. Wilson, of Winchester, noted for his semi-monthly horse sales, picked up a few head of horses as a speculative venture, but didn't "plunge." Among the horse buyers we also noted Gordon Thornburg, M. M. Thompson, H. R. Fender and Jordan McGonigla. Qraoe Chapel Ladies Present The ladies of the congregation of Grace Chapel, a near-by church, served a bountiful lunch, but sad to relate, early Jn the afternoon, so hungry was the crowd they ran out of supplies for the late comers. They sent to Modoc for another lot of bread and made up numerous sandwiches, but pies were unobtainable. Good, meaty sandwiches go a long ways at a sale, however, with plenty of hot coffee and milk, so no one famished. The ladles present, and who must have cleared quite a lot of money for church purposes, were: Mrs. John Hunt, Mrs. Albert Moore, Mrs. Elan Howell, Mrs. Harry Patterson, Mrs. David A. Hunt, Mrs. George E. Clevenger, Mrs. U. G. Harris, Mrs. Robert Howell, Mrs. Y. J. Chamness, Mrs. J. R. Petro, Mrs. H. E. Hunt, Mrs. Ora Howeil, Mrs. Wlllard Cox, Mrs. Francis Denton and Mrs. Marcus Wilcox. A number of ladies, whose husbands or fathers were present, were interested spectators in the sale tent. A. J. M'KINNEY FARM SALE The A. J. McKinney farm sale on Thursday was held 2 miles north of Centerville, on the Centerville and Williamsburg pike. Mr. McKinney recently rented his farm to Clarence Crow, hence the sale of stock, etc., not to be needed in the future. A fair-sized crowd of buyers was' in attendance and prices realized were, in the main, satisfactory. Earl Lundy and Harry Gilbert, of the Second National bank, were respectively clerk and cashier of the sale. Simon Weddle, as auctioneer, persuaded the visitors that his wares were worth about $3,000, and so it turned out when settlement time arrived.

Mr. McKinney advertised 800 bushels of "choice corn," and 25 bushels of seed corn. This was a very good article and sold up to $3.25 per bushel Among the seed corn buyers were Porter Pike. Clarence Crow and Harry Smith. The bulk of the corn in crib went at $1.68. Harry Smith and John Medarla taking In a lot of it. The 200 bushels of oats, more or less, sold at 70 and 72 cents per bushel. Walter Farlow was among the buyers of horses, a pair of colts costing him $200. Cows sold at from $76 to $100, the offering being limited. A 10-months-old male Shorthorn calf Induced some spirited bidding, and was taken away by Earl Stevens on payment of $118. Our statemtnt that Mr. Crow will farm the McKinney acreage does not mean that Mr. McKinney is to leave his old home. Mr. Crow lives on the adjoining farm and neither of the families will change residences, on account of the new arrangement. The sale on Thursday was considered very satisfactory. It was not a large sale, but a good one, the livestock offerings being limited. In some Instances implements brought more than they cost two or three years ago; before war-time Inflation In price. Hay brought $20 per ton and Borne of the corn sold at $1.72 per bushel. Speaking In round numbers the sale netted $3,000, which was a good clearance. The Webster Ladies' Aid served a very nice lunch to the enrichment of their treasury, and were liberally patronized.
