CATTLE MARKET ACTIVE
AT STANFORD COURT DAY
Over l 200 Beeves in Pens and Prices
Are High-Mule Buyers Fail to
Get All They Want.

Notwithstanding the fact that the
foot and mouth quarantine has been
placed on all of the city markets.
Cincinnati, Louisville and other mar
kets to which shippers in this end of
the state, send their beeves, there
was a brisk demand for the 1000
cattle which were on the Stanford
market here court day, and spIen-
did prices prevailed, some of the
best beef selling as high as ten and
half cents by the pound. Just how
high some of the stuff was figured
by the head is hard to say. One
buyer told the |. j. that he estima-
ted price of about ten cents a
pound had been placed on a bunch
of small calves which were offered
for sale by the head, according to
the way they sold.
AS usual buyers were here from
dozen counties, or more, and stock
dealers from as far south as Tennes-
see came to market with their herds
and most of them returned with good
fat checks in their inside pockets.
Farmers with spring grass coming on
are figuring that they can put it to
no more profitable purpose than into
beef right now with the war on in
Europe and the demand for any
thing to eat soaring all the time.
Several good sales were made on
Saturday before the regular buyers
came to town, a number of local
farmers picking up stuff that they
wanted on the road, before the stock
yards were reached.
Two sets of mule buyers were in
town Monday looking for stuff, but
did not get all they could handle. p.
G.. Fox, of the firm of Fox & Farris.
of Danville, came over looking for
some aged mules for the European
armies, and bought a total of twelve
head, at prices ranging from Sis to
$3.50 a head. Mr.. Fox stated that
he had just returned from Monti-
cello where he bought twenty-seven
head at about the same figure. ".
B. Burton, of Lancaster, was here
Monday with a Mr.. McClary, of
Pennsylvania, who-was looking for
some fat mules for the northern
l.ia-K%1s. but was unable TO secure
what II waared- Sc far as could be
learned no horses changed naa.,.-
here Monday.

c. c. GOOCH REMEMBERS
BAPTIST CHURCH IN WILL
Prominent Waynesburg Citizen Be-
queaths Legacy To Kentucky
General Baptist Association

The will of C. C. Gooch was pro-
bated in court Monday. Mr.. Gooch
died at his home in Waynesburg
some four weeks ago. He disposes of
his estate valued at $4,000 in a
rather unusual way. First he orders
that his debts be paid. He gives to
his widow the property they occupied,
the contents of the nome and stock
in hand, and $500 in cash. This is to
be absolutely hers as long as she lives
as his widow. The rest of his estate
is to be held in trust by the Fidelity
& Columbia Trust Co., of Louisville,
and the interest from it is to go to
the General Association of Baptists
of Kentucky to be used in building
or supporting Baptist churches near
by. In the event his widow marries,
the principal of that portion of the
estate left her is to go to the Cen
eral Association of Baptists, the in
terest on which is to be used the
same way.
The will was made in August 1912,
and J. B. Paxton is made executor.
He will wind up the affairs and turn
them over to the Louisville institution
mentioned above. AS only the inter-
est from the gift to the Baptists
can be used, it is a perpetual one
and as long as the Association of
General Baptists of Kentucky ex-
lists it will draw interest from the
sum left by Mr.. Gooch.

West End Farmers Losing Lambs.

Stanley Stephenson, prominent
young West End farmer, reports the
l. j. that the farmers in his part of
the county are suffering much loss
thru the death of young lambs occa-
stoned by the severe weather which
the little fellows are finding right
now. He says that several men in
his section have lost about half of
their lamb crop so far, and he figures
that if the same proportion of loss
is sustained all over the county, it
will cost the sheep breeders some
thing like $4,000 this season, fig
uring the lambs at SIS head. Nathan
Hicks, of the West End, has had 90
lambs to come so far and has lost
about half of them. Squire J. K.
Helm has lost Is and saved II so
far. Mr.. Stephenson has lost half
dozen and others report similar
losses. Just how far is this affecting
the sheep breeders of the county,
this paper would like to know.

A Lincoln County Man of Years
Ago Writes Entertainingl

Guilford, Mo-, Jan. %.
Editor of Interior Journal:-
Ny time having expired for
the Interior Journal and having been
a subscriber since before the paper
was out of its teens, l don't feel like
forsaking it in old age, therefore l
will strain a point and send another
dollar for one more year, notwith-
standing the places of the larger por-
ton of my old friends of fifty years
ago have been vacated from one
cause and another, mostly by death,
and the same filled by others, stran-
gers to the writer. By and through
the means of the Interior Journal 1
have been kept in touch, will call
it, with the ups and downs of the do
ings of old Lincoln. am glad to note
however that there are a few of the
old friends of my boyhood days yet
in your midst. My, it makes me feel
almost like boy again when l think
of it, but when | tell you that 40
years ago this evening, l was married
to Miss Lou Mckinney, the Rev.
John A. Boyle sealing the vow, you
will now say you can't be only an old
boy. imagine that 1 would surprise
you if l was introduced to you for
man of rs years. Oh pshaw! / did
not start out to bore you with this
sort of information but l will wind
up on the same strain. We have rails
ed five children-three boys and two
girls. You will excuse me when l
say that l think they are hard to get
around. The oldest is 10, the young
est 38 years. Those are our heavy
weights $50 pounds and 100 pounds.

FAMOUS OLD DISTILLERY
Rapidly Wasting Away After Big
Business at Crab Orchard

The old Crab Orcahrd distillery, at
which has been made thousands of
barrels of whisky, is rapidly wasting
away. 1t has not been used for the
purpose it was built for several years
and as no improvements have been
made for a decade or more, there is
little reason why the old "shack"
could stand many more storms. The
building was erected in 1867 by w.
G.. Collier, father of j. Harvey Col
lier, who made whisky in it for long
time. The junior Collier, for a doz-
en- years, "mixed the mash" and is
said to have been as much of sue
cess at it as he has been in the mer-
camille business, and those who know
his comfortable circumstances know
what that means.Mr. Collier sold the
distillery to DR.. j. B. and Asher
Owsley, who operated it for a while.
These gentlemen in turn disposed Of
it to James Fish, father of Mrs. j. q.
Carpenter, of this city. Mr.. Fish sold
it to j. H. Hutchins, who made money
out of it and later sold it to ]. W.
James, who sold it to the trust, after
operating it a long time and araass-
ing little fortune.
There are less than 80 barrels of
"Old Grab Orchard Whisky" in the
warehouse now and when this is ex-
hausted the real stuff will be no
more, but it will be made as long as
time lasts we suspect, for il is good
seller and people are not prone to
pay a big price for brand of booze
and not keep it on The market. 7 he
trust paid a handsome $50. .or the
dists!:eEE-. ii:"r:ai,:y l4ore FOR the
brand than the building. and "Ol6
Crab Orchard" may now-be made in
a half dozen distille.ies in this and
other States. J. Harvey Collier told
an l. j. man that he has seen as high
as 4, 200 barrels of the favorite brand
in the warehouse at one time He says
that it used to be a splendid whisky
and must be good vet, the way it
sells, but that for years he has had
n practical experience with it-let-
ting the other fellow have his share
