AT DISPOSAL AUCTION

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. Th diftpftrsal sale of a herd of 50 hetA of pure bred Jersey cattle of the "Majesty lifte -would be noteworthy in any corn belt fctate. and Is especially so in this section where Jersey herds are few and scattered. Not that there are not a number of Jersey cows, some fine pure trads, but mostly grades, to the Richmond radius, but breeders of registered Jerseys in the rneri class are few and far apart. Clifton R. Smelker. living two miles vest of New Madison. Ohio, in Darke county, has a Jersey fam that is known over several states. It lies along the New Paris and Palestine pike and is the Mecca toward which nuny lovers of the gentle and productivt Jer.y have been traveling since 1910, the date of his first public sale. The fcecond sale was held in 1913, and the last one in 1917. The -writer visited the

Smelker place a few days ago to personally inspect the stock so carefully catalogued. It was a trip worth while. Two lar?e clover fields were dotted with cattle, and numerous visitors who had driven over to take a dook at the offering prior to the sale made a tour of the lelds and breeding stables for close inspection of the group to go under the hammer on Wednesday, May 25. " Bunch of Good Youngsters. In telline of his adventures with Jersey cattle, Mr. Smelker says: After our 1917 sale we started our new herd with two cows and a few choice heifer calves, with Sultan's Southwest Majesty at their head. Our offering this year is much superior to anything we have ever placed before the public. As we have raised practically all the cattle we have sold at our public sales, we feel that we are qualiflcd to judje." In speaking of his young stock, a moeit promising bunch, Mr. Smelker said: Each calf is raised in a separate stall for the first eight months receiving whole milk lor the first month

and gradually making the change to skim milk. It is taught to eat shelled corn, oats and hay early in life. We have lost no calves from any cause in the past two years and abortion is unknown on this farm." Register of Merit Jerseys A sale of this character is of paramount, importance to the lovers of fine Jerseys among our readers who are interested in adding new blood and in breeding up to the "Merit" class of cream producers. This is especially true when such a sale is held here at home and so easily accessible. We are told that never in the history of Jersey cattle in this country have a whole herd of Register of Merit cows, and thirty of their offspring, all sired by one bull, been offered at public sale. Col. D. L. -Terry, of Columbus, O.. an auctioneer of Jerseys from coast to coast, will conduct the sale. What these choice Jerseys will-bring today compared with the prices such cattle brought in 1919 and 1920, cannot be guessed. But the day of inflated purebrf ds has passed. Everything selling noV goes on' a'uttlity basis, this applying to all classes of breeding stock. "After 12 o'clock on May 25, these cattle will belong to those who buy them, at their own bids, regardless of what. T may think them worth," said Mr. Smelker. "I am out of running when the auctioneer starts the sale."

Reports from special livestock reporters to the bureau of crop estimates, indicate the following changes in supplies of hogs. and cattle during the first three months, in the past three years. The number of hogs increased 1.6 per cent this year (from January 1 to April 1) as compared with a decrease of 0.2 per cent last year, and an increase of 0.9 per cent two years ago.

The births during the first quarter of 1921 were 1.9 per cent less than last

year and 12,6 per cent less than two years ago. The net movement from farms was 3.2 per centf less than last

year and 23.8 per cent less than two

years ago. Cattle increased 2.38 per cent during the first quarter of 1921. as com

pared with an increase of 0.25 percent last year, and an inciease of 4.23 per cent twe years ago. Calves born this year were 4.8 per cent less than last year and 25.9 per cent less than two years ago. The net movement from farms was 21 per cent less than last year and 11.3 per cent less than two years ago.

J. L. Jackson, a farmer living on Route 2. out of Camden. Ohio, strikes us as being a glutton for weak. Not content with having 45 promising icres of wheat to harvest and thresh in the hottest part of the coming summer, he has just finished planting 0 acres in corn, whicu will keep him busy cultivating for weeks to come, before it is "laid-by." Mr. Jackson is feeding 60 head of hogs, to be ready for market about June 1, and ha? a goodly bunch of spring pis coming :Iong. He expects a bettor than average crop of wheat this season, and says that no pests have made a dent in his wheat prospects, so far. Trade Farm for Elevator. William B. Barton, owner of a 248 acre farm in Franklin township, near White water, is going into the elevator tusfness at Ridgeviilc, Ind., and vi!I take possession of the plant on June 20. The ftlerator isi of 40.000 bushel capacity, is of brick and galvanized steel construction, and in, first chiss

condition. It has a feed grinding outfit but is not equipped f(V general

milling This elevator has ben doing the coal business of the town, so Mr. Barton ststes, and this was among his reasons for trading his farm for the elevator propertyx He says that he intends to run ihe plant at Ridgeville himself. There is another grain elevator at RidgeviHe, which is also independently owned and not co-operative. The Barton elevator is located at the junction of the Pennsylvania and Grand Rapids roads, and ha3 ample trackage and yard space. Mr. Barton is now putting in 70 acres of corn and says in spite of the ret back from a cold, wet spring, he expects his 25 acres of wheat to come

w earner. Two Richmonds in the Field. A correspondent in our namesake town, Richmond, Mo., writes us as follows: "The $8,000 already paid in for the erection of a livestock show and sale pavilion at Richmond, is iust a starter, and the campaign to raise a large fund ia going stronger than ever. We are now going to give the entire county a chance to join in this enterprise." This reminds us that our live stock farmers and more especially our purebred men, have mapped out a rather ambitious program for club shows and live stock exhibits this fall. We arfe sure Richmond will lend a hand to thi3 enterprise and should be able to count on the co-operation of the entire

, county. A show ground and sales I pavilion should make a strong appeal I There should be room and all the ; facilities needed to put on a fall fes- ' tival. or a city or county fair, barring ! a race track, but including space for ! athletic sport contests, etc All of this j is some distance in the future but it j is time we were making some sort ot a start, as outlined at meetings held j during the past winter.
