SAFE o. COps.-Stidham & Son sold for Jas.
Sawdon, Jr., at Newport, last Monday, a lot of
very fine cows with calves, ranging from $40 to
SIA-the last named figure being Obtained forla
me large COW and young calf with every ap-
pearance of very excellent mixer. She was
knocked down to David z. Smith who after
wards sold her to Pierce Gould at $40. and Mr..
u. forwarded her to gentleman in Phjladel-
phia, with bill for 500. The large cows sold
low, but smaller ones brought tolerably fairs
prices, so what was lost On the one hand wa
most probably made up on the other. The
sale was rather too late in the season, partieu-
LARRY as the pastures were becoming very short
for want of rain. Mr.. Sawdou, however, was
larry dls9usted with tho want of appreciation
OF good stock, evlnced by the farmers present,
aud lnclu led not 10 offer several fine SD! inge,
The sheep advertised were not sold, there an
pearins to be no one present who wished To pIr-
chase. Our friend Sldham worked faithfully
and II was mainly to his effort, and his knowl
edge OF the value of stock, that several of the
| niest and largest cows were worked up to ANY,
thing ike paying prices. The farmers who
WISH good bargains In cows should have been
on hand. They will have TO pay more at the
iali sales or do without good winter cows.
