Mm BRING RECORD PRICES AT J. A. WEiDENBACH FARM SALE

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. A stylish, brave looking little horse, with head erect and crested mane, stood looking east to greet all comers up the roadway to the house, at the J. A. Weldenbach farm sale on Wednesday morning. Motionless It stood, and looked (or hours over a broad expanse of lawn and field, flooded with sunshine and alive with visitors who had gathered to look over the live stock and prepare for the events of an interesting sale day, on a . wellkept farm. Along about one o'clock, when lunch had been served, the little horse, which had so long looked on the passing show, became the property of a lady who had admired him early in the day, and mayhap patted him on the neck. This was the only horse sold at the Weldenbach sale, and on the say-so of the auctioneer that said horse was sound and all right and "coming S years old," the sale was closed, and the eight day clock on which this bronze beauty so patiently stood, went with him. So much for the horse sale, ladies and gentlemen. When the horse was put up, a lot of household effects, in which the women were mostly interested, went under the hammer. These auctioneers are a crafty bunch. They

usually postpone the sale of furniture,

eto., until after lunch, a time when all the women in the house can get

out to appraise and buy. Essentially a Livestock Sale. Despite a famine in horses the Weldenbach sale was principally a live stock offering. And at that, there were no sheep, either' nor mules, for that matter. It was an aggregation of cattle and hogs, In brief, for which record prices were obtained, la several instances. Let us talk cattle first, if you please, as illustrative of prices obtained. The very first cow to appear on the scene had a calf at side, and was started at 9110. That is a likely starting point, Jsn't it? Well, In three minutes or

Mr. Clark once worked for the Dickinson Trust, we believe, and volunteered to help out on a busy day. Just east of the Weldenbach farm home lies a field on which was grown 52 bushels of wheat to the acre last summer, so the young man seems to be some farmer. This place is known as the old Hawkins farm, two and onehalf miles east of Richmond, and Mr. Weldenbach is figuring to remove up near Bethel next fall, though he may possibly remain over until next spring. Our old friends of the Do Your Bit club served lunch .on Wednesday, in their usual generous style.

and she was awarded to Earl Mitchell, who seemed pleased with his bargain. The next pair went to Ralph McMlnn at 1150. Mrs. C. T. Moss wns the next

buyer of a Shorthorn cow and calf at

1150, and she also made a couple of other purchases In the cattle line. Omar Puthoff secured a fine Holstein at $142, and strange -to state O. R. Roberts of Campbellstown, paid exactly the same high dollar for her mate. Everett Reld bought a "red and white" cow at $123 and just a plain red one for $105. Edward Clark was the first man to pay as high as $160 for a cow, at which price he bought two of them. But John O'Dea. well known stock buyer, went Mr. Clark a few better going up to $164 for a Red Polled beauty. This was top on cows, as we recall. Mr. O'Dea was a liberal purchaser, as was also Edward Clark, who paid $92, then $100 and next $110 for cows, his first two, as above noted, costing him $160 each. O. R. .Roberts not only purchased a number of cows but also a lot of young males, one of which, the pick of the nerd, cost him $U7. This was a full-blooded Poll-ed-Angus, a black picture, not yet a year old, which weighed 900 pounds. Among the other buyers in the cattle show were: Chris Wickett, who paid $112 for a young red male; jlenry Knoll whose cow cost him $141; Warner Fleisch who paid $45 each for two red heifer calves, and $63 each for three red heifers, Harry Thomas whose cow cost him $113 and Buley Jordan who bought both cows and steers at various prices. Rome Shurley was also on hand, which being translated means that he picked up a few cattle and also hogs, as occasion offered to suit him. One of the Red Polled cows 'which was sold at $160 . was said to weigh a ton. There were a few young steers and calves listed and so far as our observation goes they brought the "top of the market." Hog Buyers and Prices. Nearly 100 head of hogs were presented to their admirers for inspection and sale. These were sold in their various pens with limited inspec lion spuce, but as all Interested had previously taken a look at the hog

Hpction, the sale did not seriously suffer on that account. Bidders got quick action on hogs, which has been the rule of late, and it did not take long to make a clear, tince. There were more than sixty head of shotes, weighing from 50 to 123 pounds, and these were-divided into pens of average weight and sold in bunches. Fred -Bullerdick bought two sows at $47.50; another at $46 und nine shouts at $18.80 each. (TWalter Bulla took in one pen of nine . pigs at $15 and the second pen of ten little fellows at $10 per head. Hen Toachlog paid the high dollar for feeder, five of which cost him $17, and four others $24 per head. Another member of the Bulla family shows on tho sale sheets as having paid tho top on sows, $7S for one and $70 each for two more. John Knollenberg, Harry Smith and J. I. Hoover bought pens of feeders at from $10 to $18.60 per head. Russel Minor was a customer in the hog department, as was also Mark Robinson. Sale Totals $6,023. When we consider that no horses, hay, corn or oats were sold, and that the sale netted over $6,000, it is clearly apparent that the cows and hogs brought better than the average sale prices for the number put up. Col. Tom Conniff, who auctioneered the sale, had a right busy day, having no assistance. Jesse Weichman of the Dickinson Trust company, who was cashier of the sale, was ascisted by Earl Adams Clark. Mr. Clark's old home Js at Fountain City, but he has just returned from across the briney and has been Jn Richmond a few days.

Feeding for Eggs. . National Crop Improvement Servtcs. IT WAS unfortunate In designing our national escutcheon that the piratical eagle was selected, while the real American bird, the hen, was overlooked. Perhaps It would be more socialistic than we could stand for to hav her ladyship put under governmental Jurisdiction. We believe that next to milk, eggs are the most essential food, K milk can be regulated and the price fixed, why not eggs? Therefore, like the sacred cow of the Hindoos, our pullets should be protected through the almighty force of public opinion. Tho average flock of hens is a side Issue on every farm. Mother makes a little pin money and nothing is charged up against the hen and nothing credited to her. So in almost every henhouse the main food Is whatever table scraps there may be in some cases, and in others she la left to

hustle for herself and make a living by whatever she can pick up around the farm. ' - , The most common falling, however, Is to feed poultry upon whatever is most cheaply available, regardless of, the effect on egg production. The essentials of successful poultry feeding are : 1. Grain (scratch, feed) and ground feed (mash), , 2. Animal feed,. such as beef ecrapj or sour sklra milk. r ' 3, Grit and oyster shell. 4. Green feed. " J 5. Clean, fresh water. 6. Liberal feeding. 7.

Turn to the Right! Prosperity Is Marching Up the Street Wtth Bugles Blowing and Flags Flying! . AT eleven o'clock on the morning of November nth, r 1918, something happened in Europe which changed -conditions in not only your town and my town, but in every town and hamlet on God's Green Earth. Democracy -The World's Traffic Policeman signaled and the World halted on the highway of "Destruction." "Take the Road to the Right," said Democracy. "It's named 'Reconstruction.' The road 'Destruction' is barred forever.". We all knew it would happen some time we all prayed it would happen quickly but when it did happen no nation was geared to take "the road to the right" without first coming to a stop.

BUT after jamming on brakes hard, we, here in wonderful America, are already under way again, slowly for the first few weeks, but gaining momentum at every turn of the wheel. And what a wonderful sight we see as we take the "road to the right I" It fairly staggers the Imagination!, Let's take a full breath and get our balance before we talk about it NOW AMERICA with only 7 of the -World's area and 6 of its popula tion, has 75 of the Corn, 66 of the Cotton, 66 of the Oil, 50 of the Copper, 40 of the Iron, 40 of the Coal, 40 of the Railways, 35 of the Banking Power, 30 of the Manufacturers, 30 of the Wealth and 25 of the Wheat ! In addition, America has an International credit balance of $13,000,000,-

000 on which foreign countries pay us $500,000,000 a year interest, ; America will be busy for the next five years supplying the World's demands for Foodstuffs, Manufactured Products and Materials of all. kinds. Europe alone,' according to the estimate of Secretary William C. Red field of the U. S. Department of Commerce, requires over 1,000,000 homes, for which America must supply the building materials, America's own requirements in residences, schools, warehouses, apart ments, public buildings, hotels, farm buildings, etc., will even exceed Europe's staggering needs. - American Industry never before had such stupendous demands made Upon it ao varied needs to meet.
