A Great Stock Sale.

stock sale of Holstein. Friesian
cattle was held in Milwaukee Wednes-
day OF this week, and the prices paid
for the stock throughout were so re-
markable that a brief account of the
same will undoubtedly interest farm
ers and stockbuyers. The sale was
held by Arthur n, McGeoch and was
attended by stackmen of local
repute and also from New York, Wash
ington, D. c.. Ohio. Illinois, Indiana,
Missouri and as far west as California.
One COW brought the phenomenal
p ice of $14OO and was secured by the
Fargos of Lake Mills. this county.
Owing to lack of time we are unable
to give the average prices paid for
bul s. COWS and heifers. We simply
state the sales made to parties in
nearby adjacent territory.
Messrs. w. H. and S. B, Jones OF
Hustisford bought five head amounting
in all to $3.50, the highest priced in
dividual being $555.
The Fargos OF Lake Mills invested
$21OO in three head, highest price
$14OO.
Nick Grimm Of Helenville, two head
at $34O. highest price $3.50.
Reddelien Bros of North Lake, one
at $115. Although these are but a
few of the sales made. they show the
average prices paid throughout, and
they are prices which strengthen the
argument for fine bred stock among
farmers and stOckmen.

A motion that the sewerage system
be changed to allow a sanitary sewer
in Madison street from North Fourth
street so North First street and the

The ordinance pre- viously introduced
