FARMER FARM IS
WITHDRAWN IN SALE
GREAT CROWD ASSEMBLED BUT
BIDDING SLOW DUE TO FL
NANClAL DEPRESSION.
(From Fridays Daily Herald.)

(FrOm Fridays Daily Herald.)
Because the highest bid was SO far
below what the owner belived to be a
fair price the Farmer place Gold at
auction at o'clock on Thursday, was
withdrawn before being knocked
down.
From the standpoint of crowd and
interest this auction was a great sue
cess. 1t was conducted by the realty
firm of Hayes & Jackson and the
crowd was one of the largest and most
representative that ever assembled at
sale in Maury county There were
hundreds present fom nearly every
section of this county and many from
the adjoining counties. There were
several bidders also.
However, the highest bid for the
place being $4,000. before the farm
was knocked down, j, B. Farmer the
owner. declared that he could not ac-
cent it as the sacrifice would be too
great. Unquestionably had it not
been for the present financial depres-
sion and the very low price OF farm
products much better price would
have been received Every one who
attended the sale was delighted with
the place. 1t came up to every speci-
fcation of the advertising. Whether
or not with improved conditions it will
again be placed on the market is not
known.

WITHIN Ten DAYS
EXPECTED THAT JACKSON HIGH
WAY WILL BE FINISHED AT
EARLY DATE.
(From Fridays Daily Herald.)

(Ff0m fridays Daily Herald.)
Unless something unforeseen should
occur. bad weather for example, and
that does not seem probable, the
Jackson Highway will be completed
and opened within ten days. 1t is
hoped to have the highway completed

to a statement made by Chief Engin--
Ger Gloster, who is in charge of the
construction work. Only small por-
ton of the highway remains to be I'm.
ished and much of 1t has already been
Travelled upon.
That the highway is being enjoyed
by the folks of the county who have
cars was plainly shown last Sunday.
All during the afternoon and into the
night the road was filled with cars.
They were as thick as black birds
and were there from all parts of the
county. Many people rode for miles
in order to try out" the hard surface
road The traffic is expected to in
crease very rapidly with the compile
ton of the road. Il is expected that
when the road is finally opened all the
way the trafic that has been diverted
in the past over the Carriers Creek
road from Columbia to Franklin win
all go by way OF Spring Hill.

CLUB BOYS AND
GIRLS MARKET A
CAR LOAD SWINE
NEW RECORD ESTABLISHED FOR
COOPERATIVE MARKETING
IN MONTGOMERY
PREMIUM over the TOP PRICES
More Than 1870 Members of the Bows
and Girls Pig Club in Montgomery
County-Members Divided Into
Three Classes.
(From Mondays Daily Herald

(From Mondays Daily Herald.)
A. b. Harmon, county agent for
Montgomery county, established a
new record in boys and girls club
work last week when he sent to the
Nashville market car load of pure.
bred Duroc Jersey hogs that had been
ntted for market by boy and girl club
members in his county. Pig clubs
have been especially popular for the
past few years, but this is the first
time in the history of the work in Ten
nessee that sufficient number of
boys and girls were induced to feed
out enough hogs to make car load.
The hogs We're bought by the Power
Packing Plant for local slaughter,
bringing a premium of rs cents per
100 pounds over the top Of the mar
lket.
In speaking of the purchase of the
Montgomery county boys and girls
pigs, R. E. Power, president of the
packing company, said:
las a local institution we are nat.u-
rally keenly interested in the develop
ment OF the live stock industry in the
South and especially SO in as far as
Middle Tennessee is concerned The
splendid work that is being done by
the county agents in the organization
OF boys ans. girls clubs is outstanding.
In this section of the country we must
look to agriculture for our prosperity
live stock raising and feeding is very
closely linked with agriculture, and
| honestly believe that the effort to
teach these boys and girls on the
farms the science of producing good
hogs and good cattle at the lowest
cost per pound is going to mean a
great deal for these youngsters.
I'VE all know that well bred and
properly finished animals yield the
greatest returns to the producer, and
likewise, the well bred and properly
finished animal is always more desir-
able on the uart of the packer. We
paid premium of rs cents per 100
pounds for these pigs, not because
they were better than any others that
are coming to the market, but because
we feel that every effort of this char
acter on the part of the boys and girls
should be encouraged"
Mr. Harmon reports that there are
100 active members of boys and girls
pig clubs in Montgomery county.
There are three classes of members
those who are handling pure bred ami
mails for breeding purposes, those who
have taken bred sows and bred gifts
with the view of raising the pigs and
feeding them out, and those who took
pigs and are feeding them out for
commercial purposes, as was this load
of pigs that were marketed last week
Mr.. Harmon says that his club mem
bers are highly pleased and that they
all made money. AS is the case with
the grown ups, some were better feed
ers than others and consequently
made a better profit. Some of them
after paying for the pig and the feed,
made 100 per cent profit on their orig
inal investment, which demonstrates
the profit there. is in converting corn
into pork. Plans are now being formu-
lated to greatly increase the pig club
membership in Montgomery county
for another year.

THIEVES MAKE
RICH HAUL AT
RACKET STORE.
ENTER BUILDING THROUGH MAN.
HOLE IN REAR AND ROB SAFE
OF 5000 IN CASH.
CASH REGISTER NOT MOLEsTEo
Checks and Other Papers Were Not
Oisturbed-Police Are Without Clue
as to Identity of Guilty Party, But
Search Is Continued.

(From Fridays Daily Herald.)
Police today were searching for the
bold robber, or robbers, who last night
entered Olshine's Racket store on
West Seventh street and secured near
~ $3.50 in currency and change from
the safe. The cash register was not
molested, nor We're the checks and
other papers in the safe.
The robbery took place between
$3.50 o'clock last night and Z; 80 o'clock
this morning. Members of the firm
were at work in the store until about
$3.50 o'clock last night, and they are
confident that the safe was locked
when the lights were turned out and
the doors locked.
Police are without the slightest
identity of the robbers, who evidently
entered the building from a manhole
in the rear of the store, which Is used
as a coal chute. Neither the doors
or window bore evidence of having
been opened. Chief of Police Bailey
Peyton stated this morning that the
robber would have had to have been a
small man to gain access to the build
ing through the coal chute, as 1t would
have been necessary for him to crawl
a distance of several feet after enter
ing the opening until he could reach
the cellar, and through the cellar en-
ter the building.
The drawer from the safe was found
by searchers this morning in the rear
of another building on the same row,
and it is believed that the rObber took
the cash to place of safety and emp
tied it into his pockets, throwing the
drawer away.
The robbery was not discovered un-
til this morning when the store was
opened for business. The police were
called and an investiga.
ton started, but SO far as could be as
certained, not one single clue was
left which would lead to the identi-
ty of the guilty party.
Members of the firm were confident
that the safe was locked when the
store was closed last night, and In
this event. it Is evident that one of
the light fingered" gentry is at work
in this section, as no explosive or Jim.
my was used in opening the stroHy
box On the other hand police cling
to the theory that the safe must not
have been locked, and that the rob-
berry was done by some one familiar
with the whereabouts of the manhole
in tn rear of the store, and this meth
cd of entering the building.
This is the biggest robbery reported
here since yeggmen looted the FARM
crs & Merchants Bank at Mt. Pleasant
In the early spring of 1920
In an effort to locate the robbers,
were brought out from
Nashville and shortly before the dogs
picked up the trail which carried them
down Garden street toward the de-
pot They were still on the trail at
this writing and officers believe that
the general direction taken by the
dogs would give some clue as to the
identity of the thieves, If they were
not actually located.
