MADISON FEEDERS
SHIPPING TO MARKETS

With the live stock markets
fluctuating almost every day, To-
cal buyers have been a little care
ful lately about contracting and
the consequence has been that
feeders have shipped their fat
stock into the city markets them
selves. Some dozen or so local
farmers are reported to have
shipped in their beeves and hogs
the past week. Charles Jett
shipped a fine load of fat cattle to
the Pittsburg market and went
along to see them sell.
Garnett Million was in C'ncin-
natl Monday with several loads Of

Million bought from local farm

hundred and from May Collins
and M. M. Hamilton they bough,
46 head of steers that averaged
1,250 pounds at 1925 hundred.

IMPORTANT BUSINESS
TRANSFER COMPLETED

The Muncy Bros. who purchased
the entire stock of furniture and un.
dertaking business from Mr.. W.
Neale Bennett, last week completed
the big job of transferring it to their
large store rooms on Main street
There is no doubt now that their
stock is one of the most complete of
any furniture store this side of Gin
cinnati. These boys have only been
in Richmond little over a year, but
with their splendid business methods
they have built up a trade which is
large in volume. 1t is an easy mat
ter to get your wants supplied right
here in Richmond, and they are
keeping a lot of money here in the
home town where heretofore it has
gone to Lexington and Louisville.
In looking over the field for a
man to take charge of their under
taking department, they could have
made no better selection than that of
Mr.. W. E. Richards, who is man of
experience in this particular line. He
has made many friends during his
stay in Richmond, while in the en-
ploy of Mr. Bennett. Mr.. Richards re-
ported for duty Monday morning and
will be glad to welcome his friends at
Muncy establishment.
