The w. B. Dunn dispersion sale Of
black cattle, near Newburg. on the
9th. was a disappointment to the OWN
ers. There Were no Angus breeders
present except the local breeders in
the neighborhood. Twenty four head
of the females went to ID. W. Norris,
to be placed on the farm that Nj. H.
Garrett has charge of. Mr.. Norris got
his cattle at a very low figure for that
kind Of stock. All his cattle,
except the calves, are reg
istered, and all can be. Mr.. j. l.. Bur-
roughs got several, Nose Robbins sew
eral and the rest were scattered among
the neighbors.

DRY Grove, Jasper county, west OF
Newburg. are going to dispose of their
stock on Friday the 21st, and they will
offer and sell to the highest bidder
their well improved eighty acre farm.
This method of selling land is new
here. but is common in the eastern
part of the state. However, all referee
and administrator sales are conducted
on this plan. j. c. Dreamer will be the
auctioneer. and D. w. Norris will take
care of the financial part of it.
