By WILLIAM r. sANeoRN

II you attended the Walter Farlow
farm sale out on the Liberty pike on
Wednesday. you had more or less OF
q good time. If you are at all observ-
ant you also noticed the breadth OF the
view and the charming farm landscape
on either hand. Few farm homes are
more finely situated, even In historic
old Wayne county, where every pros
pect pIeases the man who loves Ma
ture and enjoys the broad outdoors.
But, primarily, you attended the sale
to see the fine stock offered and to
mingle with your neighbors during
social hour in the stock lots. You had
expected to meet lot of folks you
don't see every day and to greet old
friends. II you took friend wife along,
she, too, met lot of women who were
glad to see her, for the Farlow home
overlooked with the wives and fam
lilies of the men who came to see and
to purchase. Then, too, there was
flock of women from the Elkhorn
church Ladies' Aid society, who serv-
ed the dinner literally and let us hope
with profit.
A Hint to Merchants.
Wednesday was bright, gracing
winter day; day to get away from
store and office for few hours. In
deed we have had many such sales
days in January and yet how few OF
the town and city men who have
cared to get out into the open for a
breath of fresh air, to meet the hun
dreds who visit their stores, and to
make new friends among the farmers?
The roads are fine, the ride would be
enjoyable, the dinner change, and
the trip as a whole satisfaction. So
far, however, we have never met a
Richmond merchant, office or prafes-
sional man, at a single sale, except
that the clerk at these sales occasion
ally represents bank where the
notes accepted are to be discounted.
Just a hint, gentlemen, in CONNER
cial lines; you are really missing
something enjoyable, and most likely
very profitable, by being too closely
confined to business to get out among
the men who hold sales and those who
attend them.
The Farlow sales are always attend
ed, because buyers expect to find a
choice in every line to bid on. In
this they were not disappointed on
Wednesday. The offerings of cattle
included Jerseys and Shorthorns, and
one fine Holstein COW which brought
$149. A choice full blooded Shorthorn
COW and her bull calf sold at $210,
the calf bringing $53 and the cow
$157. One cow with calf by her side
sold at $11S.5O: another pair brought
$12S and the third pair sold at $3.50.
A fine cow of the Shorthorn persuasion
brought $138. These figures, however,
tell you but little. Age, milk record,
strain, ETC.. all enter in the values
set. The first cow may be cheap at
5000, let us say, and the last one
offered at a sale be dear at $50. 1t
all depends, gentlemen, and well you
know it.
Between forty and fifty head of
cattle were sold, ranging from wean-
ling calves to mature stock, including
a few feeders that looked good to a
lot of men who bid on them. Col.
Tom Commit and Simon Weddle, of
Richmond, cried the sale, and Frank
M. Taylor, assisted by Harry B. White,
kept the records and made settlements.

Forged Checks Passed
on Eaton Merchants

EATON, O., Jan. 30.-Police have
been searching quietly during the last
several days for stranger who passed
three spurious checks on as many
local business houses, but thus far the
author of the forgeries has not been
found Acting upon the theory that if
kept quiet the chances of landing the
forger would be greater, little or moth
ing was said about the job.
Firms cashing the checks, or rather
accepting them on purchases, were G.
A. Thums clothing store, Michael e
Lockwood's shoe store, and c. F. Mos
eys Fair store, according to the pO-
lice. Each check presented was for
the same amount, $27.35, and each was
drawn in favor of G. E. Howard, and
bore the name of John Weadick, farm
err, residing near Eaton, as its maker.
1t was noted on each check that it
was payable for labor. At each store
the forger made small purchases and
received the balance of the check in
money. The checks were readily ac-
cepted.
The forged checks had been filed
in on blank checks OF the Preble
County National bank When the
checks turned up at the bank it was
noted that each one called for the
same amount Of money, was drawn in
favor of the same person and that all
were issued on the same day. Wead-
lex pronounced the checks forgeries
after his attention was called to them
Police believe the same fellow put
over two worthless checks on bust
ness houses here last fall, at which
time he gave his name as Vale. He is
said to have worked for Weadick, but
after he worked off the bogus paper,
he dropped out of sight.

WALTER FARLOW FARM SALE
DRAWS NUMBER OF BIDDERS

The aucti0neers were patient and per-
sistent and succeeded in getting the
last possible dollar for everything in
the live stock line. Many of the buy
ers were early on the ground and
made careful inspection before the
sale opened. In fact, however, the
crowd got hungry early and only the
odds and ends were sold before lunch,
SO all had ample time to make selec-
tions. Tom Lamb bid the top dollar
for eight yearling steers and also for
a few other stock selections. G.. E. Ham
paid $34 for little Holstein bull calf,
a snap, and also secured lot of other
stuff which he seemed well satisfied
to take home.
Prices Paid for Horses.
A handsome, well matched team OF
five-year-old blacks, weight 800
pounds, excited considerable interest.
On being put through their PAGES they
showed up well in action. The pair
brought $425. An eight-year-old bay
sold at $40, weight 1850 pounds. A
good, everyday team of grays also
sold at satisfactory price.

The hogs were quickly disposed Of
and then came two pens of sheep, con-
sisting of 16 head of ewes. choice

ladies, a number of whom made pur-
chases. In order to oblige the busy

Joe Moore Victorious
In Race ON Ice

Joe Moore, one Of the most promis-
ing skaters developed in the East in
recent years, won the feature race at
the Ice Palace, 181st Street and Broad
way, last night from fast field.
Moore, who wore the colors of the Ice
Palace Skating Club, started from
scratch and gave away liberal handi-
caps in the one mile speed duel.
Lesley Boyd, a teammate, from the
fortyyard mark, was caught on the
ast dash down the homestretch, Moore
finishing in the lead by about six feet,
with H. D. Carter, United States navy
(thirty-iive years., third. The time,
3:04 80, was excellent under the con-
ditions.
Miss Valeria Stengler won the ladies'
championship of Washington Heights,
defeating Miss lillian Adler in half
mile match race. Time, 2:08 2-5.
Miss Elsie Muller delighted the spec
tators by her work in an exhibition
half f-mlc, skating the distance in 1857
fiat. TO cap the evenings entertain
ment, Raymond Murray, the elght-year-
old juvenile speed champion of the
world, skated a two-lap exhibition in
