HORSES SELL WELL ATW.L. GOX SALE, TOTAL SALES $9,300 By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. The V. L,. Cox snip, held three miles north and 1V4 mile weft of Modoc, on Thursday, was a live stock offering. It Included 25 herd of horses, six of mules 20 of cattle, among -which were a number of milkers, and 125 head of hogs. Odd to state the hogs were all feeders, ranging at from 43 to 140 pounds, not a single brood sow being put up. Tho sale wa3 held In a tent and a whole lot of farmers took a day off lo be present, to pick up a bargain or two, and enjoy the nice "hot dinner" that was served by the Ladies' Aid of Grace chapel. The man who carried off the toppers In the horse ring, was William Level, who paid $450 for a team of 6-year-old sorrel drafters. Linn Thornburg was a close second, his team of mares costing $440, while Sam Crouser got a pair to suit him for $422.50. Johr. Bales invested $375 In a sturdy roan team and numerous other pairs sold abovo the $300 mark. Two spans of mulca brought about $700; Ed Blizzard, of Muncie. paying $352 for a span, and Michael Miller, a neighbor, taking second choice at $345. A pair of yearling mules sold for $180. Among the buyers of cattle were J. Messenger, who paid $110 for a Jersey, and Michael Pedro, who got another Jersey for n even $100 Collected $9,300. The 125 head of feeders mado quite a showing in the numerous pens, graded according to weights, and caused some spirited bidding among these still having faith in the future cf the great American hog, of which there are many. No fancy prices were paid but the figures seemed satisfactory to both buyer and seller, in view of market conditions. While no corn, oats or hay were on the bill, Mr. Cox decided to offer 500 lu?hels of corn, which sold at from $1.35 to $1.38 per bushel. A handful of farm tools were also cleaned out. The sale was cried by O. E. Ross, of Winchester, and Clem Conway, of Mooreland. John Christopher, of the IvTodoc bank, acted as cashier of the f ale and announced a net of $9,300.

WILLIAM H. LAUDIG SALE. The William II. Laudig sale, held on tho William Motto farm, two miles eouthwest of Hagerstown, on Wednesday, was among the best sales held in this section this winter. There was a good crowd on hand early and competition for everything put up. The live stock sold at good prices and implements were in demand. While the net was not as large as in many other instances, where there Is

a larger offering, the prices realized

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

In reply to the question "Will the fanners raise as many hogs this year as last?" Benton Wilson, of Cambri'0

City, said:

nearer to a balance many less hogs will likely be raised another year. An Ohio Man's Views.

We shall feed less around here be-

guess, but they have lost so many pigs during fall and winter that I hardly think they will make it. 'IMany of the youngsters weakened and died, in tome cases because the sows had been previously sick, and in others because the sows were too fat from lack of exercises." Cold weather and icy fields resulted in the pigs keeping tinder shelter and putting on weight, while the sows which now and then fell in the icy barnlots often lost their litters. "We have a larger demand for bred sows now than we had GO-days ago. Many sows were marketed last fall that farmers, having changed their views, would be glad to have back. As to prices on hogs am disappointed. Had hoped for a better market and think we 6hall get more money for them next summer, perhaps sooner. I hear of no flu or cholera in this section. Believe that most of our farmers aro supplied with help; not all of course. We have all the labor we need. General farm prospects are considered good, aside from the live stock situation, which should improve." Early Pigs Gone. According to Frank A. Williams, BigType Poland man near WilliamsbuTg, a lot of pigs have been lost up his way. He claims that the "early pigs are nearly all gone" and expects to see the shortest crop of young feeders this spring that has been fed In the past four or five years. "Everybody has been losing pigs around here, nor were there quite as many sows wintered, as last year. Sows are now in better demand on that account. "The crop of March pigs is the best of the year and it is to be hoped that it will be a good one and come through all right. I have 55 little ones that are all O. K. Guess our farmers will cultivate all the land they can handle and raise as good a bunch of pigs as possible depending on help and feed bills. The cost of feed and the price of hogs are too far apart and unless they come

said Walter Petry. of West Manchester. "There was a heavy loss of fall pigs, for, some reason which isn't clearly explained. There isn't any flu or cholera around but the young pigs have died nevertheless. So far as I

know the spring litters are mostly allright. I have three litters about a week old which seem promising. I lost a lot of hogs from cholera last September as did some of my neighbors. "The loss of fall pigs can be partly explained where cholera weakened brood sows. As to the tendency of the hog market I judge that will depend Jargely on the foreign demand for meats and lard. If we have a big surplus for our own use and little foreign demand we can't epect high prices. Farmers must take chances, and always do, not only on live stock hut on everything they either plant or leed. Looks Like Off Year. "It looks like an off year on hogs and cattle" said Jerry Meyers, of Hagerstown. "We have surely raised a lot of hogs everywhere and the foreigners don't seem so hungry for our meats just now. Ixoks as if have been accumulating a surplus on that

account, if all reports are to be believed. Don't think we lost an extra lot of fall pigs around here, but some farmers complain of a little winter killing. Guess most of the brood sows are still on our farms, though I could use a few more and others are in the same boat, especially among those who look

for better prices. If any acreages are

having either flu or cholera around here am glad to say. Hard Winter on Stock. "I haven't heard of any flu among the. hogs," said W. E. Oler, of Economy, "nor much of anything else for the past nine ft'eeks. Had the flu myself about a year ago and never rightly recovered from it, and have been shut in during the cold weather.

doing welL It has been a cold, hard winter on stock, anyway." Our inquiry as to conditions at Brookville, Ind., was encouraging to the extent that there H no complaint of flu or cholera among the hogs. Joe Glaub, farmer and stockman, said there had been but a limited loss in fall pigs and that no disease was prevalent.
