Big Stock Sale at Newland, Jasper County.

If you are looking for a good horse or mule, for a cow, some sheep or some pigs, it will pay you to go many miles to attend the big sale Ed Oliver will hold at Newland, in Jasper dounty, on Thursday, March sth. Mr. Oliver had advertised his sale to take place on Friday of last week, but the drifted snow was certain to keep many away who would have been purchasers and he wanted the largest crowd together that ever attended a sale in Jasper county, so he changed the date. He has 50 head of horses and mules, including some extra good young stock, 18 head of cattle, 45 sheep, 40 brood sows, and some other stock and some harness. To those who do ndt feel prepared to give personal security, Mr. Oliver will arrange terms of chattie security, if adequate. The sale will be a long one, will start promptly at 10 b'clock, and in order to facillate arrangements for getting there Mr. Oliver has arranged to have a special train on the Gifford road meet the morning milk train at McCoysburg and bring the people back there to the evening milk train. People from the north can take the train at Kersey and reach Newland at 11 b’clock.
