GEN. MEEM's SALE OF IMPROVED
STocK.-On last " ednesday, Gen. G..
S. Meem had his second annual sale OF
improved sheep. The grounds were
arranged in the same style as last year.
A few changes only were noticed. The
number of sheep offered were larger
and in addition number ofthoroughbred
short horns attracted the attention OF
farmers and visitors generally.
The crowd OF visitors were large and
has been variouslY estimated. The
trains from below and above brought
four hundred ard private conveyances.
from four to five hundred more. Ameng
the number were Robt. Beverly, Of
Fauquier, Hon. J. T. Harris. DIR. r. A.
Wise, of Williamsburg, JnO. NJ. Miller,
President of VALLEY Agricultural Socie-
ty. Duglas Gordon, the millionaire, Of
Baltimore. Gen. j. f. Roller OF Rock
ingham, Col. Davenport, OF KY, II. N.
Nelson, a noted stock raiser Of Clarke,
George Chrisman. of Rockin 9 b m,
Slaughter Fecklin, Of Albermarle. S. w.
NJ. Peters, of Berkeley, Col. Robert
Baylor, Of Jefferson, A. F. Fausett, OF
Baltimore, W. NJ. Clements, Master Of
Transportation B. & o. Railroad. A.
VI. Bowman OF Augusta. owner Of the
Bellvue stock farm. and a number OF
farmers from the Valley counties and
also fromEastern Virginia, Maryland.
and West Virginia. Among the news
paper men were Tinsley OF the Staunten
Vindicator, Devler, of the Rockingham
ReqiSter, Dechart, of the SPIRIT OF the
Valley, Hollis of the Winchester Ne'cS,
and Others from abroad, beside the rep
resentauves of the Valley Farmer, and
HERALD, who were there in !ull force.
The sale was opened by speech from
Gen. Meem. who welcomed the crowd in
an appropriate manner, and was followed
by Col. Mir who after few preparato-
nv remarks upon the importance Of
breeding improved stock, commenced
the business ofthe day by selling the first
Southdown Buck to Jno. NJ. Miller, OF
Gddletown. for 800. The second was
bought by the same for s2l,OO the third
by Mr.. S. w. NJ. Peters, of Berkeley.
Two hundred and nincty~two head OF
sheep brought so, an average of
about $1,000 per head.
The shorts horns were very fine, but
did not bring as high prices as expected
The sale, while not altogether cncourag-
Inc to Gen. Meem, was probably as good
as was 10 be expected under the present
stringent financial affairs. Gen. Meem
is certainly doing good BY introducing
so much improved stock. While it has
not compensated him as we'll as he had
reason to expect, it is, we hope the
the beginning Of an enterprise which
will afford him handsomcreturns here
after.
A bountilul repast consisting Of NUT
ton, hams, vegetables, and ice cold
milk was served to the entire crowd.
There was an abundance for ali. The
ladies OF the Episcopal Church had a
dinner and refreshment table. They
were patronlzed to the full extent Of
their accommodations. They realized
about $50. Every one seemed pleased
and every purchaser. We hope, will make
a fine profit on his investment. Anoth-
err year, we nope will bring another
grand stock sale, and will reimburse
the enterpnsing gentleman to whom
the Valley is greatly indebted for his eft
forts in behalf of this great interest.
