SrOCK PENS
HAVE FINE OPENING

The Rockcastle Stock Pens
opened last Monday and the first
sale held by this long needed es
tablishment, far surpassed the
expectations of the most optomis-
tic supporters. The largest
crowd seen 10 Mt. Vernon since
John Robinsons big circus thirty
years ago, was here Monday
Some came because of the trophy
train and some because it was
opening day for the stock pens
and those who came principally
because of the trophy train, found
themselves equally interested in
the pens, before they left town.
Between 400 and 500 head of cat
tie. fairly good bunch of hogs
and several good mules were on
the market and nothing failed to
sell, except few head, where the
parties did not really care to sell,
but want to hold them for the
May sale.
Managers w. A. Mckenzie and
c. A. Davis, who have leased the
pens for this year, were more
than delighted with the opening
A number of good buyers from
Garrari and Lincoln counties
were here and our own dealers
were out in full force and effect.
GOOD PENS.
Many of the buyers from else
where were very complimentary
of the pens and pronounced them
second to none In any of the ad.
joining counties There is all
the room needed and every con-
venience required. EVERYTHING
is being set in motion for still
bigger and better sale on third
Monday in Nav. Get your CALVES,
hogs and mules ready and if you
do not have any get out and get
some. The buyers will be here
and those who have been driving
their stock thirty and forty miles
to find a market, can after only
one sale, tell you the difference
in bavlpg market at home and
going elsewhere to find one.
The difference is money in the
Rockcastle farmers pocket, who
has any stock to sell.
We did not get complete list
of all sales made for the reason
that everything was free and no
record was kept by the manage,
ment of the stock pens. The
following are the sales which we
were handed by different parties:

just as many, who believe his

there is not a man in Kentucky,
but that believes the state should
pay for all sheep killed by dogs,
and pay the assessed value, and
pay it when the claim is proven

They believe furthermore, that
the entire dog tax should be ap-

make up the deficit. But what
is the use of having an exhorb
