OLD HOMESTEAD FARM
TO CONSTRUCT LARGE
AUCTION SALE RING
ONE OF BIGGEST FEEDING BARNS
FOR HOGS IN STATE TO
BE BUILT.
EVERY MODERN CONVENIENCE
Farrowing Pens, Feeding Section,
Quarters for Herosmen, Concrete
Floors and Water Supply Will Be
Installed.

James R. Williamson has commenc-
ed the construction of one of the larg-
est hog narrowing and auction sales
barns in the state. He expects to have
the sales barn in shape for the big
auction at the Old Homestead Farm
on March 4, but the narrowing and
hog feeding arrangements will not be
completed by that time.
The barn proper will be eighty feet
long and forty feet wide. 1t will have
sixteen narrowing pens where the
,sows can be kept safely from the ele-
ments. There will in addition be
sleeping quarters for the herdsmen
and arrangements will be made, when
necessary, for heating the barns so
that the little pigs can be saved from
the rigors of unusually severe wealth
ef.
There will also be a large feeding
section of the barn where the choice
sows and gifts will be prepared for the
show ring or the auction pen. The en-
tire floor of the barn will be concret-
ed and it is planned to run water
through it and to arrange the floor so
that it can be entirely flushed at reg
ular intervals. Every precaution to
keep the quarters sanitary will be
taken.
The sales ring will be attached to
main barn with chutes to run the
hogs from their quarters into the ring
as they are called for. Necessarily in
the short time that will elapse before
the sale it will be impossible to COM
plete the entire structure, but the
sales ring will be ready so that no
matter what the weather may be per-
sons attending the sale will be made
comfortable.
Judging from the number of inqui-
ries that are daily coming to Mr..
Williamson big attendance at the
sale on March 4 is promised. The
women of the Culleoka Methodist
church will serve dinner.
