Miss Vannes Hartsell, Of Green
county has gone on record in her poul-
try club work. During the past year
she made $340. Some Of her money
she invested in war savings stamps,
while part of the savings was used to
buy new birds for her flock. She has
been in the poultry club work for the
past two years. She has rose combed
White Wyandottes. At her communi-
ty fair she won the blue ribbon for her
fowls From her flock she sells pull
lets and cockrels for breeding pur-
poses and she sells some eggs for
Matching. In 1918 she made only $3.50
from her birds, but seeing the advan-
tage of good flock she has increased

a small country store for marketing
her products. Her prices ranged dur

cents dozen for eggs. However, in
December when she averaged up her

FARMERS HOGS
AVERAGE EIGHTY
EIGHT DOLLARS
ANNUAL SALE AT WILKES PLACE
BRINGS AN AGGREGATE OF
AROUND $4,000.
BEST LOT EVER OFFERED
Rut the Bidders Were Not Numerous
Many of the Best Being Picked UP
by Far Seeing Breeders From other
States.

Forty-nine head of registered Duroc
hogs sold at the j. B. Farmer sale at
Wilkes Place, Culleoka, on Tuesday
for So, 900 or an average of $50 a head.
The average was not as high as Mr..
Farmer has had by good deal, but
considering the uncertainty of the
hog market, the fact that the price OF
pork has undergone wide fluctuations,
but was on the whole rather salts
factory sale.
The crowd attending the sale was
not as large as that of year ago,
and the lack Of bidders had depress-
ing effect on the sale. Many real bar
gains went under the hammer. Mr..
Farmer was not dissatisfied, but in
the language of Col. Iglehardt, the
auctioneer, tlfe real losers were those
who did not avail themselves of the
opportunity to- buy the bargains that
were offered
Mr.. Farmer can take pride in the
fact that he had the best offering that
he has ever made at his famous hog
breeding establishment. That was
the universal comment of those at
tending the sale. The judgment of
The Herald which stated two weeks
ago that Mr.. Farmer would offer the
best collection in the history of his
farm was sustained by every one at
the auction.
The hogs offered were not only roy
ally bred but they were of the great
big growthy type, the kind that pro-
duce the pounds of flesh over the
scales. With two or three exceptions
they showed the fine care and atten-
ton that has made Mr.. Farmer IA
NOUS as a breeder and finisher of
hogs.
The sale was an unusually even one.
No price records were made. A liber-
al number sold around SIS and $50
each. The highest figure was $3.50 at
which three sows were sold.
A regretable feature of the sale
from the standpoint of the we'll wish
err of agricultural development, in
Maury county was that many of the
finest specimens of the breed went to
other states and to other counties.
Every possible facility to expedite
the sale and make the people COM
Portable was provided by Mr.. Farmer.
His sales arrangements would be diff
cult to improve upon.
Col Iglehardt again officiated as
auctiOneer. Before the sale Prof
Evan A. Mclean, county agent, made
a strong plea for the eradication of
the scrub sire and told of the plan of
his committee to wage war upon this
undesirable individual in the county
j. I. Finney, editor of The Herald,
called to speak among his old neigh
bors and friends of the fifth district,
described the advantages of live stock
farming over grain farming in this
section. He preached to them the
gospel of grass and pleaded with his
hearers to quit cutivating the hill
sides and give the browning glory of
old Maury county, blue grass, a
chance. d

approached from behind. lie
wrestled with the man and in the
conflict the fallen victim" attempt

blow cut the collar of the motorists

did not penetrate the skin.
Both negroes ran into the dark
ness OF a side street and succeeded
in getting away. Descriptions OF
the men were given the police by
Napieralski and a thorough search
of the city was made The razor
which was used by the negro was
found only a short distance away.
