LOCAL HORSE WINNER

Lady Bird" the Wilkes mare
owned by DR.. Parlin, has had unusual
success this season on the turf. She
has made five starts and has been in
the money four times. Her best
performance was when she won a
seven heat race at the Morrisville
fair. She was second in the 2.40
mixed class and in the 2.25 trot at
the Franklin county fair and won 3rd
money at Plattsburg, N. Y. She
was also entered at the State Fair at
White River Jet, but through an
accident while enroute she was un-
able to start.
The trotter has been handled b.
Frank Lang of the Roaring Brook
stables, Barton. Her performance
this season on the track is remark
able when it is remembered that she
was a green trotter with but three
months preparation.
Lady Bird was sired by Early
Bird, by Jay Bird. Her dam was
Lady Stirling, by Boston Globe, by
Red Wilkes.

GUN CONTEST FOR CUP

At a recent meeting the members
elected M. T. Sadleir and W. F.
MorOng captains to chose sides for a
two team contest to decide the own
ership of the Brighton Gun Trophy.
From the members two teams of
eighteen men each have been chosen
and they crossed swords at Sweeney's S
Range Tuesday afternoon. The
question of which team will receive
the free supper will be decided at
the close of the third meet, promoted
much interest and both sides are
taking every legitimate measure to
win. The average score as it now
stands is: Sadleir's team 20.88 and
lOtong's team 23.70. The highest
Individual score was made by Wright
Danforth, the second largest by
Fred Stokes who was tiled" by c.
E. Johnson. Other members on
both sides are holding something
up their sleeves" for the final and
both sides being so evenly matched
makes it hard to guess which side
will win.
1t is definitely decided that in the
future, Tuesday and Saturday after.
Moons at three o'clock will be the
regular days for shooting. This will
not hinder members from practicing
on any other days.

The country generally is in q

country merchants are buying
literally.
Mr.. Anderson stated that he
lad bought the largest and most
varied assortment of fall and
winter stock that he had ever
purchased. "You know said
|Mr. Anderson that we now
already have in our store more

CORN IN DEMAND
AT BIG PRICES
ONE FARMER HAS REFUSED $4.95
FOR ONE HUNDRED BAR
RELS OLD CROP.

That corn will be corn in this good
year is demonstrated by the high
process that are being offered for It,
Several loads have been sold in Co
lumbia this week at $4.75 per barrel
and a number Of farmers who have
an abundance of old corn are refus-
ing to part with it at that price even.
One of the leading farmers of the
county, Col. J. c. Hickman, stated
this morning that he had an offer OF
s4.s6 for one hundred barrels but de-
cined to sell. A good deal OF the
new crop has already been sold at 50
per barrel and up. In fact sales are
reported at $3.50 and it is doubtful
now If any could be bought at that
price. The Columbia market is ap-
parently about 81 ahead Of the Chi
