GREATEST STOCK
Sale YET HELD
NOW IN PROGRESS
Maysvllle Is Filled With Farmers and
Their Families--Mnch Stock and
Many Horses and Mules OF.
fered For Sale-Enlarge.
ment Necessary.

Maysville has not yet had stock
sale that could compare with the
March sale in any way. There we're
more country people in the city than
have been here for many months and
business In all Of the stores is re-
ported as having been fine.
Never before has the stock yards
in lower Limestone street been so fill
ed. Every pen in the yards was filled
to its capacity and then much stock
had to be herded In corners Of the
stock yards while horses and mules
were scattered over the trading pen,
Limestone street, Market street, East
Second street and government square.
It was not expected that there
would be such large amount Of stock
offered for sale but the horses and
mules were expected. 1t is understood
that there was much business trans
acted during the day and many horses
changed hands while local butchers
purchased much butcher stock and
many cows were purchased by farm
ers from traders.
Some of the stock In the yards was
as follows:
d. C. Owens, 40 head of cattle; Lar
kin and Hamilton, 60 head Of cattle;
Jack Yates, 10 head Of cattle; Larkin
and Hamilton, 25 head Of mules; Geo.
Longnecker, 100 head of sheep; Lar
kin and Hamilton, 30 hogs; James
Douglas, head of cattle; ]. C. Lee, s
head Of cattle. This stock filled all Of
the stock pens and just how much 9TH
er stock was in the stock yards could
not be told from the records but it is
known that fully that much more
stock could not be gotten into the pens
while there were more than hundred
head of horses and mules in the trad
ing pens and many scattered over
the streets and in the livery barns.
Maysville is now becoming a real
stock sales center and from the
crowding in the stock yards 1t is cer-
tain that something must be done to
care for the rapidly growing business.
More pens must be provided and ar
rangements must be made to care for
the large and constantly growing
business.
Maysville promises to be the trad
ing center of this vast territory about
us and we must be in a position to
handle 1t we'll and satisfactorily.

Mrs. Emmons is the mother of a
family which has probably been more
seriously stricken by this dread dis
ease that any other family in Mason

this immediate family were confined
to their bed with the disease.

week, the daughter dying on the day
the son was buried. Other members
Of the family, including the husband
and father are now very seriously i'll
with pneumonia. a"
Relatives, friends and neighbors are
giving the stricken family the best Of
attention and 1t is to be hoped that
the other members who are now so
seriously i'll will eventually recover.
