O Home Weekly, Madison county had two important i Shorthorn cattle sales last week, J. W. Evans and Son sold 40 animals both imported and American bred that brought $32,475, an .average of $800. The highest priced animal was $1,900. A POPULAR MOVE. The Madison Shorthorn Breeders’ Associatio nsale totaled $13,145, average o f $211 including all stock. an Mr. D. S- Dixon will retire from farming and make a public sale o f his stock and implements, Friday, Nov. 1 on the W. H, Barber farm. A- E, Wildman o f Selma delivered 139 head of black cattle several days ago to Swift & Co., that averaged 1300 and were 19 months old. They brought 18 cents and were said to be the best drove from Ohio. The leader of all sales so far was the Titus sale held last Monday. The Titus farm is a popular one at any time for people to visit and a sale al­ ways brings a county fair crowd. A lot of good stock Was disposed of and the clerk found himself with $28,700 when Lamar and Howard Titus left the auction block, and too late to sell the horses at that. —S. Charleston Sentinel. The farmers are looking-after their seed corn for ne^t year with unusual care. On a visit to their places now you will find they have selected the largest and .finest ears and have them strung up for seasoning. Not many of them will follow the custom of waiting till spring and make-a raid on the crib or depend on selecting it dur­ ing the winter as they feed. Last year has taught them a lesson, J, H. Lackey’so f Poland China hogs last week resulted in the 60 head av­ eraging $120. The sale was the best he has ever had. E. E. Finney held a record breaking sale of Jersey cattle last. Saturday when 34 head o f fine Jersey stock us­ ed for dairy purposes were, sold. 20' head of matured stock averaged $202. 50 while the general average Was $150. Elmer Kelley o f Xenia had"? head in the sale that averaged $100. Mr. Finney will hold a Poland China hog sale at his farm on. Saturday, Nov. 9 when 45. head will be sold. Reihember the Turner-Paull-public sale on Thursday, October 31. Every day we are asked about the scholarship fund and the Bible chair for Cedarviile College, People are in­ terested in both. They want to see the College grow. We appreciate the good-will and generosity of the people Of course you want to help. Only $40 buys a scholarship good for one year; A Liberty bond turned over to Ced­ arviile College is at once put ifttd the endowment for the Bible Chair and becomes a permanent fuhd. This week we received two scholarships and a handsome Liberty bond. All of these were given without personal solicitation, will you be next? Rally round your own College, Now is the time to act, «*. iMs# wm There were many that'thought the Harry Townsley sale last Thursday would, not bring in dollars and cents the value of tnfe stock. When the clerks totaled the sale it was found that it. amounted to $ 8,370, which was about $1,000 more than. Mr, Townsley had estimated for his sale. A few of.the colts probably sold low but a s j jr , Tgignpslejr did not cars to Wfhtef &m go t o ‘ the high bidder, The hogs and cattle easi­ ly made'up for any1loss on the horses. Mr. Earl Randall, who has resided on what was formerly the Archer farm, has purchased a farm o f about 40 acres near New Jasper and will move by spring. Julius H. BameS, head o f the .U, S. Administration’s grain corporation is. out with an interview discouraging a greater acerage of. wheat for next year. Jn a letter to Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, Mr. Barnes said a fair yield fromthe. present large acerage, with any peace developments opening hew sources o f supply,, would necessi­ tate Congressional appropriation to make effective the present price guar­ antee. The wheat acerage has been extended Until it is liable to be at the expense of the otheC crops, particular­ ly fodder grain. Last year’s wheat crop was burdensome in many sec­ tions, and with increased acerage‘and a fair crop with peace developments it will require a large amount o f mon­ ey from Congress to make good the present price guarantee. What about classification o f prop­ erty, for taxation? How many far­ mers are ready to vote on this ques­ tion? This question has heen up before but evidently it has gained friends. The amount of money .that is going into non-taxable securities means that some drastic tax legisla tion can be looked for in the next year or so. The state, county and munici­ palities must have morifey as well as the schools and •minions going out of the reach of taxation means some new avenue must be opened to pro­ vide funds. The Ohio Farmer in re­ viewing the proposition states that whereever classification has been tried larger revenue has been provided. The claim iB that intangible property will be returned and is returned in the states that have this law. The un­ iform rate, such as we have has pro- ......v ... uiC „ provid­ ing a fair and legal classification is worthy of support. CONCERNING SAUERKRAUT IS sauerkraut pro-German?

Stopped the manufacture of whisky, , Cut down the manufacture of beer oyer one half. Barred liquor advertisements from the mails. * . Barred shipments of liquor by mail or parcel post; Stopped shipments of liquor froin wet into dry territory, Submitted a national prohibition amendment. ' Stopped manufacture of beer after December 1,1918, Stopped imports of wine after May, 1918, And now he is .adopting absolute nation wide bone-dry^ prohibition of the manufactnre and sale of all intoxicating liquors until after the end of the war and the demobilization of the arms and navy.
