S0ws and Bears at the Harshaw's Sale
Find Ready and Quick Buyers.

|
Find Ready and Quick Buyers.
The bred brood sow sale of H. H.
Harshaw, held in Butler on Wednes-
day Feb. %, was one of the largest
and most successful ever held by this
most successful of breeders. Col.
C. E. Robbins presided as auctioneer
in the morning, and Homer Duusll
acted as clerk. There were some
$50 people present during the day,
and the bidding was spirited through
out: among the latter were parties
from Missouri Kansas, Ohio, Arkan-
sas and Iowa.
The sale began at 10 a. M, with
the announcement that the following !
prizes would be awarded:-First: SIS
for the nearest guess as to the best
price for sow, $40 for second
nearest guess. Second: SIS, for best
guess as to the average price Of all
hogs sold. $40 for second best
guess. Third: SIS for nearest guess
as to price and weight of highest
priced boar.
Up to theinoon hour of Wednesday,
twelve sows had been sold at an
average Of slightly over one hundred
dollars each. j. w. Pennington Of
Prairie View, Iowa, paid $3.50 for
'Miss Pink Violet, and this price
marked the highest notch for the
forenoon; $61 being the lowest figure
for sow bought by D. W. Newton
of Butler.
During the afternoon the bidders
ran the prices paid to above the two
hundred dollar mark, and the COM
petition was keen and strong, the ut
most good humor prevailing the
whole day. Undoubtedly the cold
weather in the morning acted as a
damper or the bidders, as the prices
were boosted up directly after dinner
and it is assured that buyers never
got 60 much for their money at any
former sale.
Col. R. L. Harriman did the auc-
pioneering during the latter half of
the day.
