Chevrolet Building
Says On Foundation
Front Basement
Wall CrumbIes

The two story brick building
on Miller street, owned by Bolon
Farmhouse and the home of the
Farmhouse Chevrolet company,
suddenly sagged on its founda-
ton last week.
Mr.. Farmhouse said today that
the front basement wall had
crumpled, causing the building
to sag.
The two large plate glass win
dows were removed, without
damage, and the building proper
has been propped up and sup
ported until new basement wall
can be laid.
Mr.. Farmhouse said he could
not determine what caused the
wall to give, unless it was the
vibration from the heavy trucks
which use this highway.
He discounted the idea of the
city sewer which lays nearby
as they dug out a portion and
found it completely dry. Appar-
emily the dirt had pushed against
the wall and eventually caused
it to crumble.
The building was constructed
back in 1918 by Frank Combs for
Oscar Noble and was used then
for a garage.
The property damage is COW
cred by insurance.

officials. The letter stated
that on June 2, the freight
traffic committee, Central
Territory railroads, had granted
a reduction in rate, from the
former $1.92 net-ton to $l'p0 net
ton.
The county commissioners had
requested a rate reduction some
time ago and the company grant
ed it to meet truck competition
from Steubenville and Mingo
Junction to Caldwell. This will
now considerably reduce the
overall cost of incoming Stag for
county roads.

Milk Production
High During May
Dovid Beckett Owns
Top Producing Cow

Milk production is normally at
peak during the month of May.
That was true this year in Noble
county in spite of the dry wealth
er according to County Agent
Floyd Henderson. Last month
there were seventy five cows in
the production testing program.
Of this number thirty were on
official tests and the others on
owner-sampler tests.
In both groups there were a
total of nineteen cows that pro-
duced more than forty pounds
of butterfat and seventeen that
produced over a thousand pounds
of milk for the month.
The highest producing cow for
the month was a Holstein own
ed by David Beckett, that pro-
duced 2030 pounds of milk and
65 pounds of fat. Clark Jennings
had a Jersey cow that produced
1130 pounds of milk and 64
pounds of fat.
Of the thirteen cows on milk
in the Beckett herd during May,
nine produced more than 1000
pounds of milk and over 40
pounds of fat.
Year after year production
testing records in Ohio have
shown that the elimination of one
boarder COW from the herd will
more than repay the cost of pro-
duction testing for a year.
