originators of the plan of establish

occasions to secure concessions for

None Need Seed

County Auditor White thinks that
the Stark county farmers are 50 prosper
GUS that they do not need to take advant-
age of the law just passed by the leeis-
lature by which the county is permitted
to loan those who have had hard luck
and are too poor tt buy seed for this
seasons crop, money for the purchase
of seed wheat. At any rate he has re-
ceived no applications for such assist
ance.
1t may be that the Law is not known
and some who really need the loan may
yet make application to the auditor but
on the whole the farmers of this county
are prosperous enough to buy their own
seed, even if they have just filed upon
claims and intend to break this spring
for the first time. p
In making a loan of this nature the
county is given a lien on the crop and
the farmers pay for the seed wheat out
of the proceeds of their crops.

Successful Horse Sale

The first sale of the season opened
Thursday afternoon with a good bunch
of horses and buyers but very -unfavor-
able weather. Several hundred people
went out to the yards and occupied seats
in the amphitheatre while about IS
horses were auctioned off. 1t was snow
ing and blowing all the time and such
conditions are bound to make q sale
slow.
The prices paid were good and the
horses were good according to their
classes. Yearlings and two-year-olds
offered at this sale brought extra good
prices. a bunch of yearlings selling for
$50 per head and a pair of two-year-
olds bringing the banner price of
$172. so. The heavy draft, ready for
business kind. sold from SIS to SITS.
some good ones going around the $140
mark. =
j. M. Watson owned most of the
horses offered at this sale. John Conroy
of Billings was the largest consigner,
shipping in four carloads. J. ].
Clements of Osseo. Wis, had a few
horses in the ring but the biggest part
of his two carloads were sold at private
sale before the auction opened. The
horses from the Hartinger bunch were
snapped up by local buyers who were
not afraid to pay high prices for un-
questionable stock. The Hartinger
horses were mostly young stuff that
had the makings of big drafters.
The weather was too cold to hold a
sale OF Friday morning. In the after
noon it warmed up and about 100 horses
were sold singly and in pairs. The
buyers were mostly local parties and
most of the horses will be put to work
on farms in Stark, Hettinger and Dunn
counties.
In all, about..2o0 horses were sold and
good stuff, as usual, brought good prices.
Another sale will be held here a little
later in the eason but MI. Watson has
not yet decided upon the date.
