BUYER AND SELLER SATISFIED; EDGERTON SALE VOTED SUCCESS

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. When the men who own the goods, and the men who buy them pronounce it "a good Bale," and when every one goes home satisfied, you have a . sale that scores as a success. Not all farm sales are In that class, for circumstances at times prevent, . but most of the sales pulled off In Wayno and adjoining counties will average up all wool and a yard wide. Th Paul N. and J. F. Edgerton farm sale, held on the old Frank Edgerton farm, a - mile and a half southwest of Fountain City on the Webster road, on Tuesday, was a good sale. Everybody admitted it. Among other things they sold Ave head of horses, five head of cattle and 76 hogs, the later all Big Type Polands. Lloyd Pyle, who will locate on the ' Edgerton place was among the most persistent buyers He paid $247.50 for a fine sorrel mare, $101 for the tandem disc, $103 for a 2-row corn plow and got some of the hay, corn and hogs. The Edgertons are quitting farming, at least for the present, and are moving to Fountain City. Fancy Prices for Pigs. Of the hogs on offer, most all eli

gible to registry, one at least sold for

more than $100. Ben Toschlog also bid high for a sow or two, of which

there were 14 in the ring. Some of

the gilts sold down to $44, -and a few pens of little feeders ranged , from $5.50 to $9.50; their mothers selling separately as above. Lloyd Pyle took a few of the hogs at various prices, and the lot was pretty well scattered. A neighbor put a team in at the enclose of the sale which Ben Toschlog JRgrabbed at $287.50, which amount is not included in the total given herein, which W. O. Seaney, cashier of the 'sale, put at $4,112. James Busby, living Just north of Fountain City, cried the sale, got fair prices and

made a quick cleanup. Alva Study, of

Fountain City, assisted Mr. Seaney as field clerk.

The Ladles Aid of the Methodist church of Fountain City served, an acceptable lunch to a large crowd,

among which were a number of women and children, the weather being pleasant. The ladies of the New Garden church auctioned two quilts for the benefit of one of their charities, and are $16 richer thereby. Corn and Hay Prices. The corn In crib, about 900 bushels, sold at from $1.60 to $1.63 and 15 tons of good bright timothy hay was divided around at an average of $30 per ton. Carl Reynolds and Verne McNutt getting a liberal share. Farm tools brought fair prices, for farmers real'zo that 3pring is but a few weeks away. The Piano binder was bid up to $135 and captured by Fred Mote. FLOYD TAPP'S SALE. If you happen to own 1,300 bushels of good corn and 20 ton3 of choice timothy hay just now, you will find it no trouble to sell both at good prices. Floyd Tapp will tell you that, and he ! knows, for he had a farm sale on -t Tuesday. Mr. Tapp has been living on the old Harmon Gregg farm, 3 ' miles northwest of Richmond, and will now move to Randolph county. The Gregg and . Shanks farms have both recently been purchased by the state. In addition to the 1,000 bushels of 0i corn in cribs, Mr. Tapp had a lot of corn In shocks in the field, which also brought good money. The corn was divided among various buyers, the price averaging $1.55. Will Crowe of Webster, paid the high dollar. The grain and hay were features of this sale. The timothy was in demand at $30 per ton, and B. Toschlog and Kirk Plankenhorn were the largest buyers. Three horses and 14 hogs comprised the live stock, no cattle being on the bill. Frank Taylor, clerk of the sale, announced a net of nearly $3,500. Lunch was served by the Ladies' Aid of the Friends church at Webster, and Tom Conniff cried the sale.

The "City of Sherman" sliding sideways into the water.

The recent side launching of the "City . of Sherman," a 9,600-ton jteamer, at the Pensacola, Flashipbuilding yards, is considered one of the most remarkable feats m shipbuilding history. The ves

sel was 95 per cent complete when it slipped into the water. The boilers carried steam enough to handle the boat when it was launched. The boat was sent into the water sideways. According to

builders, the boat is the second to be launched with its own steam up. The ship was named after Sherman, Tex., one of the first cities to go over the top in the last Liberty loan drive. '

PRICE OF CORN 1 If you have compared local farm sale corn prices with the figures paid for the cash article in terminal markets, yon have noted that corn seems to , be worth as much on the farm as it would bring at city elevators On that basis, indeed. It is often really

worth more to the farmen, right in tho home crib.

There Is no time lost in hauling it to

town, no freight or brokerage charges, no less in weight in transit, or in re-

weighing. The farm buyer loads and hauls the corn home; pays cash for it and the transaction is closed. Thero

is no penalty for off -grade; it sells just as it is, regardless of moisture

content. Corn is selling at from $1.55 to $1.67

at local farm sales, against a top of $1.55 in Chicago on Tuesday, and the

bulk around $1.50 per bushel for nast

several days. On same dates corn for January delivery sold at' $1.43 to

$1.45. . May corn at $134 to $1.36. these prices being 20 cents per bushel over

tnose of same date in 1919. Oats are

about 25 cents higher than one year ago.

STABILIZING HOG PRICES At a meeting of the Nebraska Swine Breeder's Association at the University Farm last week, E A. Burnett, Dean of the college, discussed the problems of the hog raiiser,. He insisted that some means must be devised to do away with market fluctuations. The theory is, according to Dean Burkett: "That packers buy hogs at the lowest possible dollar. This means that when the run is large they bid down, and when the run is light they bid up. This should not be, because there are no more hogs In the country when the run is heavy, than when it is light. There should be an adjustment and farmers have a right to demand it," said the Dean. If Dean Burnett can tell us Just how that stabilizing of prices can be brought about, this column is open to that presentation. Somebody must always "absorb the slack," in every kind of a market. Whenever we can keep supply and demand reasonably balanced prices will take care of their own stabilization, and in every line of raw. or manufactured product. But there is also another element to be considered, that of human nature which craves the excitement of speculation, the chance to win and lose on judgment and circumstances. It Is a large part of the joy of doing business, this anticipation of a better market tomorrow or next month, for the seller, and the hope that in striking a general balance the profits will greatly offset the losses in the year's marketing. LIVE STOCK SCHOOLS. One of the first schools of instruction in the best methods of marketing live stock, was held at St. Louis stock yards a short time ago, and this was

followed by a session at Kansas City. TheNational Federation of Live Stock Shipping associations has been instrumental in promoting the work and the instruction is given primarily for the benefit of the managers of the various associations. These meetings are addressed by representatives of the Bureau of Markets at Washington, and by others who are well informed on marketing problems. Packing house buyers tell of grading o live stock and the class is usually shown through the various plants in action.

JUSTIFIED, PASTOR SAYS. WABASH, Ind., Jan. 28. Thomas Jestex failed to pass out the Sunday school papers at the Christian church Sunday for the first time in twenty years, but he contends, and the Rev. Mr. Jaynes, pastor of the church upholds the contention, that he was justified in leaving Sunday school. He left when his pupils told him that the Jester home was on fire. When he got home the entire second story of the house had burned. The fire started from defective wiring.

FIRST CHRISTIAN PLANS NEW CHURCH

Plans for raising $5,000 or $6,000 during the Coming year, with which to start work on a new building for the First Christian church, will be . laid before the congregation Thursday night by a finance committee composed of A. B .Harrison, Mrs. W. A. Ellis, W. L. Stump, Bruce Cline, and Mrs. Charles Roland, appointed at the annual congregation meeting, on Jan. 8. The fund probably will be raised through small monthly payments by the congregation, it is thought, although no definite campaign plans have been formed. Increasing need for larger church facilities pointed to the necessity of another church some time ago, the Rev. L. E. Murray said Wednesday morning. A year ago last August the church purchased the old Vore property to the west of it, which has been rented out since. A modern church placed back from the street and covering this land to the west and reaching to Park Place on the south, is the tentative plan. The present building, which was completed and dedicated on May 3, 1903, failed to care for the Sunday school of over 300 members several years ago, when the house on the rear of the lot was obtained for primary grades. NEW COLLEGE BUILDINGS. EVANSV1LLE, Ind., Jan. 28. The executive committee of Evansville College announced Tuesday that $35,0,000 will be spent this year in four new buildings. These buildings, to . be ready for occupancy by September 7, will be the administrative, including the chapel, library and available recitation rooms; science hall, with laboratory and recitation rooms, a girls' dormitory, and a gymnasium.

"What's in a Name?"

Facts about your name: Its hiatory; Its meaning; whence It was derived; Its significance; your lucky day and lucky Jewel. BY MILDRED MARSHALL

(Copyright, 1919, by The Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.) JANE The quaint old-fashioned name of

Jane has two equivalents Joan and

Jenny. It is one of the numerous

names, both masculin and feminine,

that comes from John and his derivatives, and signifies ' grace of the Lord'. John was originally Johannes or

Joanna. The first feminine form to be used many years after all derivatives of John had come into favor was Joanna, the name of a holy woman of the gospel who was never canonized, but received her title of sanctity in honor of one of the St. Johns. In the Twelfth century, the feminine form sprang to real prominence In the South of France and north of Spain. Jehanne and Jeanne were popular French forms and Juana was favorite in Spain. Many Jeannes and Juanas married into royal families and gave vogue to their names. A daughter of Edward II was so called and Joan Beauford, beloved of James I, was anothed famous woman of that name. It was not until the Tudor period that Jane came into vogue but straightway, it was made famous by Jane Seymore and became a courtly title. On the other hand, Jane was

accorded such popular usage that it is

said to have named jean as an article of dress. Jenny seems to have as a diminutive or perhaps an endearment of Jane. It suggests something much gentler and more alluring feminine than un

compromising Jane. Jane today

summons up a vision of a well-tailored, efficient, vnnnsr nerson with feministic

tendencies, but Jenny represents the unmistakable domestic type. It is she who named the spinning-jenny and and Jenny Wren of nursery tales. The most famous woman to beaf the name was the golden-voiced Jenny Lind. . Jane's talisman ic gem is the turquoise. If set in gold, it promises her rood fortune and long life, with freedom from dangers and anxieties. Wednesday is her- lucky day and 3

her lucky nnmber.

CRAIG GAINED THIRTY POUNDS TAKING TANLAC

"Since I started taking Tanlac I have not only gained thirty pounds in weight, but for the first time in twenty-five years I am enjoying good health," said J. J. Craig, of 421 North Madison street, Bloomington, 111., recently. "Yes, sir, I am fifty years of age," he continued, "and twenty-five of these years have been spent in misery and suffering without a let-up until I began taking Tanlac. I was never able to eat a thing without filling up with gas afterwards and having such intense cramping pains In my stomach I could hardly stand them. Why. at times I would have these spells of cramps while at work, and would have to be taken home, where I would lie for hours almost unconscious. I was all run down and weak, and would play out before I had worked half a day, and very often had to quit and go home. But, thanks to Tanlac, this is all a thing of the past, now. "Tanlac has simply made a new man of me, and it has given me good health, something I never expected to have again. I can sit down, now, and eat anything without Hs hurting me the least bit. I am never troubled

with eras and never have the least

sign of a pain in my stomach. I feel strong and vigorous all the time, and am able to work every day and all

day long with the greatest ease. No, sir, I wouldn't take all the money in Bloomington for what Tanlac has done for me. and I exnect to praise it as

long as I live." Tanlac is sold in Richmond by Clem

Perfect Health Is Yours If the Blood Is Kept Pure

Almost Every Human Ailment Is Due To Blood Impurities. You can not overestimate the importance of keeping the blood free of impurities. When you realize that the heart is constantly pumping this vital fluid to all parts of the body, you can readily see that any impurity in the blood will cause serious complications. Any slight disorder or impurities is a source of danger, as every vital organ of the body depends upon the blood supply to properly perform its functions. Many painful and dangerous diseases are the direct result of a bad condition of the blood. Among the most serious are Rheumatism, with its

Ninety Percent of the cases of Deafness and Head Noises are Catarrhal, due to Catarrh. In the Eustachian Tubes and Air Passages which connect the ears and nose. In all ,such cases these Tubes become stopped up with Catarrhal mucus, and the-Air Passages of the Head clogged, thus preventing the air from enteringan d circulating as nature intended.and the result is Deafness and a great variety of dreadful Head Noises. Catarrh causes Thickened, Sunken and Hardened Drums. Also, if the Natural Drum Is perforated or completely destroyed the cold air enters through the perforation and a Catarrhal condition, quickly arises. Therefore, before there can be any Improvement in Hearing or Relief from the Head Noises It Is absolutely necessary that the diseased condition In the Eustachian Tubes and Air Passages be relieved.
