Winchester Court

October court brought out one of
the largest crowds that has been in
the city for several months, The
day was ideal and as a result there
was great deal of trading in all
branches of trade. Merchants
report a good business, every line
of the mercantile business getting a
full share.
The stock market was flooded
with cattle, the largest number be-
ing offered here in more than a year.
At the Hamilton stock yard there
were about $500 head and a great
number changed hands. The mar
ket throughout the day was brisk,
there being a considerable demand
for the best quality of the offerings.
Prices, however, were considerably
lower than last court. The pros
poets for good winter grass made
the market lively for feeders and
stockers and there was a considera-
BILE demand for this class of the Of
ferings.
Heifers were quoted at from five
to six cents and there were a con-
siderable number that changed
hands at these figures. Good heavy
steers went as high as seven cents
while common lots varied from five
to five and one-half.
Good steers met with ready sales
as the demand was brisk and show
ed a considerable improvement over
last court.
There were a few yearling mules
offered but the demand was very
light and as a consequence only a
very few were sold. Heavy mules
we're almost entirely out of demand
and the market for horses was like
wise.
Judge J. H. Hardwick bought
ten 700-pound steers from George
Halsey at $7.25; W. c. Brock
bought a bunch Of 1850 steers from
R. G. Hall at 7 cents; j. M. Daniel
bought a bunch of 600-pound heif-
ers from Shelby Risener at five and
one-half cents; Field VanMeter
bought fifteen 900-pound steers
from John Baker at five and one
half cents, and L. G. Agee bought
four $50 cows from S. T. Stamper
the past week in Mt. Sterling

Cold Time Ahead.

Coal has taken another jump
and is now $500 per ton at the
mines. The way of the poor
man in the winter time must be
cold as well as hard this year.
Flour is now $500 per hundred
and cheap at that according to
some quotations from the mill
we saw in the hands Of a mer-
chant today.

Doings Of the Fiscal Court.

The Powell Fiscal Court was cali
ed together Monday for the pur-
pose Of looking after the construc-
ton of the roads. They went over
the various roads Tuesday propos-
ed for construction. Mr.. G. R.
Thomas, Division Engineer, came
up Tuesday morning, and, together
with L. w. Searles motored over
the inter-county seat road to Ir-
vine. He found an excellent grade
all the way to Irvine and the very
best of material to construct a
road.
The Court convened again We'd
nesday morning for discussion and
acting upon road matters. Many
plans were discussed to get the
work started, all agreeing that State
Aid for 1916 must not be lost this
time. The final plan decided upon
seems to have been to first sell the
bonds, advertise for bids, get an
engineer and if bids are not salts
factory, proceed under the force ac-
count plan.
The surveys OF the old Commits
sion were much discussed, but were
all finally rejected. The following
road bills were allowed:
w. E. Rowe, surveying roads, 700
Work of Commissioners, ....... 800
DIR. johnson, automobile hire
for use of Court Tuesday
and part of Wednesday
morning, looking over roads, 9
Total road bills, $1,078
The bill for s709 for surveying is
to be paid provided the State o.
KS the allowance, which then will
come later from the construction
fund.
The proposition is to begin build
ing good dirt road out from STAN
ton both ways east and west paral-
leling the railroad along the present
road as travelled, and do it just as
quickly as possible.
