The stock Farm Auction.

A crowd numbering 400 or 500 people
a good proportion ladies-were attraced
to the public auction of l.. f. Pettee's
property and farm known as the Deerfeld
Stock Farm, last Saturday As usual
where there is a large crowd, the property
sold brought high prices generally. The
farm, which originally cost Mr.. Pettee
$4,000, was only run up to that figure, and
was bid in. There were only one or two
actual sales of horses, and the sale of cattle
was "nipped in the bud" after only few
had been sold. The ladies had their
innings in the afternoon, when the house
holdIgoods were put up, but the bidding
was not so spirited as in the forenoon, for
the reason that Mr.. Pettee through an
oversight had failed to provide lunch. The
furniture generally sold high for the
quality.
Mr.. Pettee bought this farm of the late
David Perry in 1889, and has since ex-
pended over $4,000 in addition to the first
cost on repairs and Improvements, aside
from the stock. The breeding and train
ing of fancy horses was the first venture
on this farm, and all the equipments for
this purpose were put in, including good
one-half mile track. The success of this
venture was not brilliant from any point
of view. Then the raising of cattle was
taken up. Mr.. Pettee has also given the
poultry business considerable attention.
Two cottages have been built near the
bridge, and have been occupied by summer
people every season. 1t is understood that
Mr.. Pettee will not conduct the farm on
his own account any longer, but will ship
away his stock and rent it. The farm and
buildings have been greatly improved since
Mr.. Pettee came here, and our people
would like to have him remain business
man among them.
