FIRST POLAND CHINA SALE HELD IN RUSH CO., OCTOBER 3, 1889 By WILLIAM R. SANBORN '

The first exclusively Poland China hog sale, of which there 1b any record occured at Rushville, Ind., and Is re-! i iii. t v.ii . uui lit u All m a. linn w limn iLrii iuiiL.au. uiiua i the date of Oct. 3, 1889. . .Tohn II. Bebout, living near town, sold 20 Poland China pigs at a sale, In which horses, Jersey cattle, etc., went under the hammer, in Oct. 1886. At that sale his spring pigs averaged about $22.50 each, a remarkable price at a time when small feeders sold for $2 to $4 each. Mr. Bebout's son, Simon, still remembers that mixed sale, and the comment caused by the high prices paid for the pigs. 1 In the summer of 1889, Mr. Bebout decided to have a straight Poland China hog sale and advertised It widely that fall. He sold 90 of his own pigs and neighbors added 17 to the collection. "It Beats the World" The Republican of Oct 3, 1889, heads the sale article as follows. "It Beats the World! Ninety Rush county hogs sold for $5,792.40 average of $64.36." Following this the editor discourses on the wonderful prices realized as quoted: "A beautiful day greeted the gentlemen from a half a dozen states and all parts of the county, who gathered at the fajr grounds to attend J. II. Bebout's annual Poland China swine sale Tuesday." "Business opened promptly and the bidding was spirited, no trouble being had in finding buyers for the splendid pigs offered for sale." "Mr- Bfcbout sold 90 head of his own hogs for $5,792.40 an average of $64. 36. This more than doubles last year's sale which exceeded anything on record up to that time. The success attending the sale reflects the greatest credit upon Mr. Bebout's enterprise and judgment and puts Rush county far ahead of the world in this branch of live stock breeding. "Seventeen other pigs belonging to other owners were also sold, swelling the aggregate of this sale for 107 pigs to $6,212.50, or an average of $56.00 on the entire lot." The highest price realized for a single animal was $625 (for a boar one year old) and the lowest was $16. Only three brought less than $20, Six sold for more than $200 each; and 29 others brought upwards of $50 several of the number two or three times that amount." Herd Boar History After giving the names of the buyers of all animals bringing from $20 up the editor continues? "The boar Adam was put at the the head of the Bebout herd about that time. The next herd was George Wilkes, bought at a price of $125. In 1893 this boar was sold from the Bebout herd for the phenomenal price of $750. The buyers were so unfortunate as to kill him and at once came back to the same herd to replace him. Thr-y selected Mr. Bebout's boar Guy Wilkes, at the then record price of $900. This boar had sold for $381 in Boboutt's 1890 sale, and a record price thon, and was later repurchased for use in the herd." American Legion National officers of the American Iyofton are hopeful that Marshal Foch will accept the invitations of the Unitcd States government and the legion to visit. America next month and attend the second annual convention of the legion to be held in Cleveland, O., Sept. 27, 28 and 29. Lemuel Bolles, national adjutant of the organization, who has recently conferred with Seccretary of War Baker, and officials of the British and French embassies, said the legion's formal invitations to the supreme al lied military and naval commanders had gone forward through the embassies and that the state department had also officially transmitted then at the request of Franklin D'Olier, national commander of the legion. Co-operation in the effort to have the two war chiefs come to this coun try for the convention has been promised by American officials and by the French and British embassies. In his letters urging acceptance of the invitations to attend the convention, Mr. D'Olier declares that "nothing could at this time so much stir and warm the hearts of our people" toward the French and British nations as a visit and direct message from the two great leaders to the organization composed of those who served in the World war. BOLSHEVIK (Continued from Page One) commend th position taken by the two statesmen. "The British and Italian premiers," says the Chronicle, "are very anxious to come to an agreement with Russia, but no agreement is possible un less the Russian government removes the presumption it will not keep such agreement in good faith." After warmly commenting on the British premier's stand the Times says the policy announced at Lucerne gives promise of more vigorous action. ' Only the wilfully blind can fail to discern the crafty intentions of the soviet leaders," the newspaper continues. "Their pious recognition of Polish independence was and is a sham. They would set up Bolshevik rule in Warsaw and spread ruin over the land." The labor organ, the Dally Herald breaks in on the chorus of praise with an outcry against Premier Lloyd George.. Everybody" it asserts, "knows the real reason for this new ultimatum and the renewal of the threat of disastrous war against soviet Russia., It is not a question of terms at all, but a question simply and solely of fact. The Poles have won a military victory and have thus revived the hopes of the French and British capitalistic governments that they may be able to overthrow the Russian socialist republic. The menace of war is as grave as ever, and action by the labor council is the only power that can stop it." ROME, Aug. 24 Disappointment with the statement issued at Lucerne by Premiers Lloyd George arid Giolitti relative to the Russo-Pollsh situation is expressed by the Messageso ifl commenting on the situation. It says the statement gives an impression of "oainful, almost tragic, powerlessness."

"The statement Issued by the premiers," says the newspaper, "refers to the treaty of Versailles In order to rive verbal satisfaction to France, but Immediately afterward recommends a spirit of moderation, which Is Inconceivable without a courageous and effective revision of that treaty.

U COO I AM CI VJ0 PflOT tlrotllAsi rlI ia llllo I TO STATE, $5,750,000 Hessian fly damaged the Indiana wheat crop to the extent of $5,750,00 during the past year, according to estimates 'based on reports from throughout the state to the soils and crops department of Purdue unlvers. ity. The fly was so bad in some sections that the wheat was not worth cutting and in many places It wa3 plowed under this spring and the ground planted to corn or oats. This loss can be prevented the coming year by late sowing of wheat, or seeding after the "fly-free" dates, according to Prof. A. T. Wlancko, head of the soils and crops department of Purdue. Purdue and government entomologists have established by several years of experimental work, the dates for various parts of the state for seeding so that wheat will not be damaged by the fly. "On the experiment station gronuds at Lafayette the best results have been secured during the last week in September," said Prof. Wlancko. Abou one day earlier or later than this should be counted for each 10 miles north or south of this latitude. When there Is Hessian fly in the neighborhood Is is advised to delay seeding as late a3 possible. Late seeding win often escape fly damage where early seeding would ie badly infested. There is, of course, a practical limit to the lateness of seeding. It must not be so late as to put the wheat Into the winter In poor condition. Good fertilization will hasten the development of late seeded wheat." Posters with a map showing the approximate dates for seeding in the state have been sent to each county The map shows that seeding should be done, if possible, from Sept. 20 in the extreme northern part of the state to Oct. 8 or 10 in the extreme south era part. One man In a community seeding before the fly-free date, may start the flies which will infect all wheat in tha neighborhood.

HUMAN ELEMENT BIGGEST ONE IN ELECTRIC RAILWAYS (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Aug. 25. Satisfactory solution of the problems presented by the electric street railway industry can be reached through application of principles "of ordinary eco nomic and business common sense, in the unanimous opinion of the seven men who composed the federal electric railways commission, appointed by President Wilson in 1919. The report of the commission, prepared after exhaustive hearings and examination of nearly 100 witnesses, was made public today and says: "The commission can go no further than to point out the principles upon which the readjustment should be based. The task really is that of the state and local authorities upon the one hand and of the companies on the other. "Failure to rehabilitate the industry and the service is possible only1 if those upon whom the responsibility rests, fail to undertake the work, or pursue It in a spirit that makes settlement Impossible. 1920 H. S. Memorial May Be Selected Wednesday Night Bids and estimates for a class memorial for the class of 1920 of the Richmond high school will be discussed at a meeting of the committee in charge of the selection, to be held Wednesday night at the chautauqua grounds. The meeting will be held at tent No. 130, which is located on Olive street. Every member of the committee is urged to be present as matters of con siderable importance are to be considered. It is thought that the memorial will take the form of cluster lights to be placed at the Ninth street entrance to the high school building.

HORN OF PLENTY IS POURED INTO LAP OF KANSAS THIS YEAR TOPEKA, KANS., Aug. 25 Stories of sudden wealth In the Kansas wheat belt are numerous this year, due to the unusual acreage of "volunteer wheat" a cron erown from seeds which fall I The large acreage of volunteer wheat 18 due to the fact a sreat deal of this acreage was deserted as wiieai ia.uu vy me owenrs, uiLtr ittai year's none to bountiful crop had been harvested. The 1919 acreage was in excess of 11,000,000, by far the record for any state in the union. A wet fall caused the kernels of wheat which had fallen to the ground during the harvesting, to germinate. Finding the "volunteer" crop making a stand, farmers did not disturb the growth and, with ideal wheat growing weather this spring, the volunteer wheat made yields fully as bountiful as the rest of the crop. Deserted Farms Produce Innumerable stories of "deserted acreage," producing $5,000 to $25,000 K-nnana Vho rh Kiir f teer wheat was grown. Others tell c?farme7sho purchased farms rhl-I i year and paid for them with returns of this year's wheat harvest. Illus t rating the "sudden wealth" general throughout the western Kansas counties, where land has been cheap and favorable seasons few and far between, a recent canvass of wheat yield in the vicinity of Oakley, a small town 60 miles east of the Colorado line, in Logan county, showed at least 50 farmers whose wheat crops this year are worth more than $50,000 each each; at least 25 have more than $75,000 of wheat each, and every farmer has a good crop. Thirteen counties, most of them of north-west Kansas, this year are yielding 43,701,637 bushels. of wheat, according to the latest official estimate by the ststt board of agriculture. The one big draw back to the Kansas wheat growers prosperity this year. Is the lack of facilities In which to transport his wheat to the market center,. Cars still are scarce, especially iv the central and western parts of the state, but the situation is not as desperate as It was two months ago, grain dealers report. Big Corn Crop Too Favorable summer rains have practically assured a big corn crop In Kansas this season. The crop has been officially estimated at 140,000,000 bushels and the official forecaster now asserts that the continued favorable weather means the yield will mount still higher. The Kansas weather bureau here reported that it is the first year in its 33 years existence that Kansas had a "bumper" wheat and corn crop the same year. A bank er who lived In Kansas 52 years is authorityior the statement that In that time, such favorable crop combination never,before occurred. Similar conditions prevail with the oats and bartey crops which have been harvested. The state raised 20,000,000 bushels of barley four times the average annual yield of the last 20 years. Alfalfa and grain sorghums, to which millions of acres are devoted In Kansas, likewise are producing bountiful crops. Kaw Valley potato growers, report one of the best crops ever grown. As one editor of western Kansas puts It: "The horn of plenty appears to have poured right into the lap of Kansas this year." The rarm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn As showing how the price of wheat is liable to fluctuate at country points in times of active markets, we note the prices paid at the flour mill at Liberty. Last Saturday they took in wheat at $2.40, but the break on Saturday and Monday were so severe that their Monday price was $2.30. On the rally on Tuesday, they advanced again to $2.35. The mill reports very few oats on offer, and but little corn They quote corn at $1.40 per bushel. No complaint of lack of cars just now. Fred Miller, elevator man at College Corner, says that since wheat dropped below $2.50 farmers are not inclined to sell. He doubts that more than one-third of the wheat in his vicinity has been sold, and certainly not more than one-half of it. He says the lack of cars has limited his business somewhat this season. Corn prospects continue good, but no old cofti Is being offered now, althougn there is still a lot in farmers' hands. Average crops of corn are mostly fed and sold locally; although there is a certain amount of shipping in good seasons. j Coal In at Fountain City. Paul F. Bittner, of Fountain City, reports three cars of fourth vein Illinois coal in this week, most of which sold for $12 per ton, and the last car will most lkely go at $12.50 to men who did not order when the price was first made. It seems that the miners added to the original price on the last to come in and the elevator is charg ing accordingly. Fountain City also has two cars of anthracite on the road which may get here within a week, possibly this week. Mr. Bittner maintains that there in considerable corn around Fountain City, but that no one wants to sell especially now that the market is off. Wheat was worth $2.30 and oats 55 cents at Fountain City on Tuesday. Several cars were shipped last week, Mr. Bittner reports, but this week he has orders to ship oats, three or four cars of'them, but has no cars. Anthracite for Centerville. Walter Mathews says that they have a few cars of anthracite ordered ai Centerville, which have not yet been reported on the way, but which should be here inside of two weeks. It will cost about $15.50 per ton. They wers paying $2.25 for wheat and cenls for oats Tuesday. "If we are favored with another month of growing weather, and no in jurious frosts, our late corn will ba made," is the report of Goodrich Bros, at Winchester. They state that most all their corn is fairly early, and may

be safe inside of three weeks, but net 1

all the corn is 'so far along four or five weeks would suit better. In this numerous farmers concur. According to Mr. Goodrich, 60 per cent of the-wbeat crop is still in farmera' hands, who evince no desire to sell at present prices. The crop was large and is of fine quality. He says oats yielded "enormously" and thete are so much of them that "we don't know what to do with them." Oats are worth 68 cents, corn $2.10 per hundred, and Wheat $2.30 per bushel at Winchester. Having phoned a raft of country elevators this week, thi Goodrich folks are satisfied that more than half the Indiana and Ohio country elevators are shut down for lack of cars. A Mighty Good Sale. The Whitewater Creamery company, at Connersvllle, reports a total of $10,800 at their live stock sale on Monday Fifty Holstein and Guernsey dairy cows sold at an average of $180 each, the top cow, a Guernsey, bringing $260. Timothy sold for $27.50 per ton and 35 acres of corn in the field brought $10 per acre. The Ladies' Aid of the Harrisburg church served an appetiz ing lunch and a large crowd was ia attendance.
