Everyday Adventures

That Changes Everything
When you've decided that at last
the time has come when you can
afford to buy car, and you have
words with the automobile dealers,
wko show you ten or twelve of the
finest cars in America for your
money, but they all want too much
money
And you begin to realize that
even if auto prices have fallen,
they didn't hurt themselves much,
and they're still too high for you,
because you're in the market for
really good car at a really reason
able price
And you've just about made up
your mind to do lot of walking
this winter and let the new car
go over until spring-when some
one calls your attention to the
unusual offers in The Palladium's
automobile column
And That Changes Everythingi
Because you find a number of
cars described there that sound
just like just what you've been
looking for-and the prices sound
better than anything you've been
looking for
And you step out and buy the
best one of the cars and start
right in to do your fall and winter
motoring!

Pure BRED PORKERS
CLIMBING UP HILL
TO HIGHER PRICES
by WILLIAM r. sANBoRN

The great American pure-bred hog
is slowly coming back home. True,
he hasn't been long away, but he trav-
eled quite distance in a brief time.
He went down hill so fast that he was
almost lost sight of in the dust, but
is now slowly making his return
journey up the long hill of greater ap-
probation and higher prices.
Be that pure.bred hog white or black.
red belted or spotted, he is on his
way up the grade. Not with breathless
speed, to be sure. but he is gaining.
He can not slide up hill, as he did
down, but is climbing higher from
sale to sale in popular estimate of
values.
There were two sales of importance
held near Richmond, on Thursday, one
in Wayne, the other in Preble county.
The Preble county sale of Duroc Jer-
seys was held by the county Duroc
Breeders association. The Wayne
county sale was of Big Type Polands,
owned by Frank A. Williams, near
Williamsburg.
Poland chinas Average S54.
The crowd was so large at the Will
liams sale that the pavilion oyerflowed,
and more seating room had to be pro.
vided. 1t was a more tense and eager
gathering than one has been accus-
toned to seeing at recent pure-bred
sales, since market hogs went on the
tobboggan along with every product on
the farm, or practically so. This great
trade depression has had psychologist
al effect, one evident in every
department OF business. The cloud
has enveloped us all. but is gradually
lifting, is the opinion of the most COM
petent observers.
The Williams sale offering COM
prised one fall boar; one fall gilt and
one yearling SOW; % spring boars and
% spring gifts. The boars averaged
$50, against an average Of $54 for the
entire sale.
"oh BY Jingo," $40.
The Junior champion Poland China
boar at the Indiana state fair this year
named "Oh By lingo" topped the
Frank Williams sale at $40. The
youngster was bought by Harry Gar
ton, of Winchester. The animal came
into the ring limping, because of
having foot caught in a fence a few
days ago, resulting in strained
tendon.
The next highest priced boar sold to
John Beard, OF Oxford, Ohio, who gave
check for $95 for him. w. Z. Wood
ward, of Montgomery. Ind, trailed
along with a boar at s92.50. Harry
Carton topped both the boar and sow
sale, his gilt costing him sS5 Oran
Pike, paid $3.50 for the next highest
female.
Various Poland Buyers.
Among the high bidders was E. c.
Barrett, OF Hagerstown, who got a SOW
at $40; p. F. Whitman, College Corner,
bid No. %. boar, up TO $85, while
George Bullerdick, of Richmond, got
his pig at s55. Andrew Kerber, of
Milton, climbed up TO s62.50 in his
quest for two good ones, while Orla
Hinshaw, of Fountain City, got his
choice at s55. Among the buyers
were: Arthur Farlow, Berne, Ind,
$3.50: Lawrence Fleisch, Boston, $50;
w. T. Leach G. Son. Liberty, $50, with
others from various counties in this
district.

ing talks and lecturers every day, they

HARIFW WATER USERS
TO DELAY ORGANITATION
OF IRRIGATION DISTRICT

Harlem. Jan. 90 A meeting of the
Harlem Water Users association was
Harlem Water Users association was
noon for the purpose of discussing the
feasibility Of organizing the present
ditch company into an irrigation dis
trict After considerable discussion
it was finally decided that it would not
be to the best interests of the stock
holders to form an irrigation district
at this time.
w. B. Sands explained the situation
as it now stands in regards TO the
water controversy between the United
States and Canada pertaining to the
division of the waters Of the Milk
river.
Due to the fact that the reclamation
service has been furnishing the land
owners with lump sum expenditures
instead of itemized statements it was
thought advisable to make some in
vestigation into the matter and find
out what can be done to get an item
lied statement of all accounts. The
matter will be taken up with the other
ditch companies in the valley and an
effort will be made to organize
standing committee of water users to
look into this matter from time to
time when deemed advisable.
