KILLS BIG EAGLE

On Friday last, Homer Hull, Of
the Vanderpool community, killed
a very large eagle while on bis way
to their mountain field to look af-
ter some sheep.
Mr.. Hull came along just as the
king of birds had made deadly
swoop and had a l-month oil pig III
It's talons. In fact, but for thc:qu"al
ing oft captive, he might not have
bagged the rare prize, but his atten-
lion was thus attracted and he hur-
ried in that direction to find that
The eagle had left its prey for the
time and was perched on the fence.
Mr.. Hull shot the eagle, and
stretched at fill length On the
ground, it measured seven feet from
tip to tip. Those who saw it pro
nounccd it a monster in every de-
tail, probably one of the largest Of
i S kind ever xii ell in Highland.
The pig had a couple OF ugly
wounds in the sides, but WAS not
fatally hurt.

Do the Farmers of Decatur County
Want a County Agent?

At the Farmers Institute held in
this city last week j. w. Coyerdale,
agent Of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, was present and
he told all about the work which is
being done with the aid of a county
agent. Must interest was manifest
ed, and an effort will be made to Sc
cure county agent with government
assistance providing sufficient inter-
est is shown by the farmers OF this
county. Wherever the plan has been
tried it has proven successful. A
committee consisting of Morris Gard
ner, E. H. Sharp and ]. H. Hill were
appointed to take charge of the mat
ter, and they ask the farmers OF each
township in the county if they are
interested to address any member OF
the committee for special printed
matter which will be sent to them
II sufficient interest is shown anoth-
er meeting will probably be held in
January, when government agent
will come to address the farmers.
Now, don't think the other fellow
will do this for you, but if you are
interested, and every farmer in De-
catur county should be interested,
let the committee appointed last
week hear from you. 1t is for your
interest and yours alone.

China Sow Sale Next Tuesday.

Manchester Bros. the well known
breeders of Big Type Poland Chinas
will hold sale of fifty head of brood
sows and gifts at their new barn a
half mile south of the Leon depot on
next Tuesday. These gentlemen have
a herd of the best Poland Chinas in
this part of the state, having been
gradually building up their herd by
buying the best breeding stock from
such well known breeders as Peter
Mouw and others, and at one time
purchased from Mr.. Mouw three soWs
for which they paid the largest price
ever paid for sows by any breeder in
Decatur county Their herd boars,
Big Bone Jumbo, Jumbo Boy and
Leon King, are bred right up in the
purple and they have produced some
mighty good hogs. If you are inter-
ested in good hogs, the big money
making kind-you should attend this
sale and if possible pick up some
stock with which to improve your
hogs. 1t does not pay to raise the
poor kind when you can just as well
raise the best and double the money
you make on your hogs.

AUTO COMES NEAR INJURING
THREE LADIES'.
The Machine Takes an Unruly Turn
When Ladies' are Near Ceme-
terry and Turns Over.

While Mrs. Horton Bailey, of this
city, Mrs. Warren Smith, of Chicago,
and Mrs. Ward Mack, of South Bend,
Ind, were driving in the Bailey au-
tomobile near the cemetery one day
the past week, they had very mar
row escape from serious injury. Mrs.
Bailey was at the wheel and the
three ladies were enjoying the ride.
The car had stopped at the top of the
hill, where there had been q collision
with a post as a result of the brakes
not working. When the car started
again 1t was to descend q steep hill.
The jarring at the collision with the
post had bent the steering gear and
the car went down the hill at q good
speed and turning started up = hill
across ditch and then turned over.
The two visitors to the city were
thrown to the ground and Mrs. Bailey
had the presence of mind to remain
at the wheel until all were in safety.
1t Is a wonder that they were not in
jured, and it is fortunate that the
expense to the car only amounted to
$3.50. Following the accident the
ladies took a kodak view of the peri
lous position in which they had been
placed and will have the picture to
remind them of the narrow escape
