ALMOST. II HALF MILLION
DOLLARS iNOC10BER


4 d . !. b
| The last half of October,
lSwinebroad, the real estate man
OF Lancaster. was kept busy hold
ing auction sales. On Oct. 18th
he sold for Ms. Geo. Backer,
Mrs. Lynn Buster and Mrs VIM.
Geary, 865 acres of land in Wayne
county, adjoining the town of
Monticello, to various parties in
building lots and farms for the
aggregate sum of $o4,5O4.83: On
the 18th he sold for Milo Simpson
a tract of IS acres of unimproyed
land in lGarrard county at an
leverage of $2l4 per acre. On the
|2lst he sold for r. w. Gwinn his
farm of 335 acres in Mercer
county to different parties at an
average price of $3.50 per acre; a
lportion of the farm with the i'm
|provements, about 243 acres
averaged 1901 per acre. On the
22nd he held another sale in Gar
rard county and sold l4O acres
for N. J. Gosney at $275 per acre.
Again, on the 24th he sold at
auction for J. L. Butler his farm
of 100 acres in Lincoln county at
$3.50 per acre. On the, 18th he
sold for Allen Edelen ITO acres Of
land in Mercer county, in twp
tracts of IS acres each at ain
average price of $l62.5O per acre.
And on November LIST for H. V.
Basin brick residence and
about 4 acres of land just at the
edge of the city limits of Lam
easter in Garrard county for Sill
$50, and on the same day two
building lots for Roy Schroeder at
$17O0 each. His total sales
amounted to $3l2,482.
All Of these sales were very
successful and again demon
strated the fact that when it
comes to selling land Swinebroad
is in class by himself. His ex-
Iperience in making. subdivisions
and knowing how to sell farms
and his judgment of the value of
land make his services much
sought after and he is one of the
few real estate men who have
realized that the real estate BUSH
ness is asprofession and must be
conducted SO as to secure and
hold the confidence of those with
whom he deals. Swinebroad al
so believes in printers ink and. it
is probable that he spends more
in advertising than any other
real estate man in the business in
Kentucky and is thereby able to
give his clients the best of SER
vice.

AIRPLANE TO FLY over
IDAHO COUNTY FORESTS

Plans for an airplane flight from Ore
gon, across Idaho, to Montana, cross
ing the Nezperce and Selway National
forests, in Idaho county, are being com
pleted by the forest service. The air
plane flight by a government aviator
over the forests, it is said, will be
made in order to make a reconnaissance
of the forests, with especial emphasis on
the fire situation.
One army plane is expected to leave
Washington, D. c., within week for
the northwest, and second, which has
been detained for repairs, is expected to
be in the northwest within sixty days.
The aviator flying from Lewiston to
Orofno, Kooskia, Grangeville, and
thence to lIissoula, will be enabled to
observe practically all the forests in
central Idaho.
If the army aviator, as planned, fiys
over Idaho county, it will be the first
time in history that an airplane fight
will be visible from any point in the
county.

SURVEYING CREW
AT WORK ON ROAD
FROM KOOSKIA Up
THE SOUTH FORK
Reach Sites in Mapping Link
in Proposed Camas Prairie
Highway; Done in 2 Months
Survey Will Extend Almost
AS Far AS National Forest
Boundary South of Harpster

Surveying a connecting link in the
Camas Prairie highway, up the South
Fork of the Clearwater, from Kooskia
to Harpster, a crew of men, operating
under the state department of public
works, is at work. The surveyors early
this week had reached Sites, after sur
veying the road from Kooskia. They
will continue up the river, expecting
to complete their work within two
months.
The survey is being made under direc-
tion of R. G. Schmeltz, locating engineer
for the state highway.
The survey is through the Clearwater
highway district, commencing at the
north boundary of the district, and ira
versing almost the entire length of the
district TO Harpster.
The Clearwater highway district, last
June, voted to issue $4,000 bonds for
construction of standard road along
the South Fork
It is planned to build through the
national forest from Harpster to con-
meet with the Elk City highway at
Rocky Point. This highway, from
Grangeville up the South Fork to Mea
dow Creek, and eventually to Elk City,
will soon be under construction.
The Camas Prairie highway, for which
survey is now being made, will connect
with the Lewis and Clark highway at
Kooskia

country has been responsible for slow
ness in development of quartz properties
in that district. Splendid placer prop
critics have been developed in the camp

Grangeville to Elk City, and with good
roads which eventually will be built
from Elk City to Dixie, mining is ex-
pected in the Dixie camp to forge
rapidly ahead.

FIRE-FIGHTERS REFUSE
TO WALK STEEP HILL

A crew of fire fighters being trans
ported in motor truck from Grange
vile into the national forest, recently
flatly refused to leave the truck, in
order to tighten the load, and walk up
a steep grade. Al Nelson, of Grange
vile, driver of the truck, experienced
difficulty in climbing the grade, be-
cause of its steepness, the bad roads,
and heavy load. He asked the men to
walk up the grade, but they refused to
leave the truck. Nelson, powerless
against the overwhelming odds on the
part of the fire-fighters, did not in
sist that they walk, and finally, after
numerous attempts, was able TO drive
the car and its load to the top of the
hill.

ONLY ONE HERDER


The sheep are believed to have
burned to death Friday night. They
were in charge of one herder, who had
no dog, and, as the forest fire swept
toward the band of sheep, the herder
was unable to move them.
B1r. Durham, who was in Grangeville
Friday, heard of the peril in which his
sheep were reported and Friday night
he departed for the mountains, in an
attempt to save them. When he ar
rived the sheep were dead.
AS the flames approached, the sheep,
characteristic of the animal, punched,
and in short time were reduced to a
charred mass of flesh and bones.
The 255 sheep which have been found
alive, were segregated from the main
herd, and were found throughout the
mountains.
