Manchester Bros, the we'll known
breeders of Poland China hogs, had
a corking good sale last Thursday
when they sold 80 head. The entire
Offering of &c head of catalogued
stuff was snapped up in short order
and still there were buyers who want.
ed some of their stock and II head
of young pigs which they had not
prepared for sale were put up and
sold at fancy prices. For the sc head
,catalogued the total amounted to
$3465, an average of $3.50, which
is a high average considering that
many of them were young hogs. The
tops of the sale were the herd boar
Jumbo Boy, bought by J. G. William
>ack, of Oxford Junction, Iowa, at
5000, and the SOW Manchester Maid
for which e. Cook, we'll known
breeder of Pattonsburg, Mo-, paid
5000, and E. Massey, of Woodland
township, paid $195 for the SOW Miss
Long Wonder. Buyers who had at
tended all the big hog sales in south
ern Iowa and northern Missouri this
fall, said that Manchester Bros. had
the best of all the sales they had
attended. They had a splendid line
of animals and were we'll pleased
with the prices realized. There was
a very large crowd in attendance,
and we are mighty glad that so many
of these good hogs were purchased
by Decatur county breeders. They
will add materially to the breeding
of Decatur county hogs, and will sure
make money for their owners.
