Some people go to sales to buy a particular item while others simply go to see what is offered and to visit with neighbors while the children play. Usually the accumulation of a lifetime is a large and often an odd assortment of things. At farm sales a wagon or two will hold many small tools, boxes of nails, bolts and screws plus brushes and odd pieces of metal. Household goods include everything from flower vases,to mixers and from dolls to pictures. The auctioneer at a sale must keep the crowd’s attention with his wit. He calls attention to the flaws in a particular piece but still tries to convince the crowd that the purchase is a practical one. At an early age many auctioneers develop a certain chatter and develop a following of buyers. /r%'\ KTEtS HPIEMENTS MC. 400 N- Antrim Way Greencastle, PA Ph: (717) 597-2176 WEB SNYDER INC.

It was half full of “stuff* when 1 moved here and 1 have only added to the variety of stored items. 1 hate to think of the big job of emptying it someday. Probably a lot of it could simply be destroyed as worthless. But, there is always that chance that a valuable article might be found among the ac cumulation. It is interesting to learn the value of certain pieces of machinery, furniture and antiques. And so when 1 phone auctioneers all over the state and type up the “Sale Reports" for Lancaster Farming, 1 hope that other people find the prices as interesting as I do. Ifcamb Facts Does wool irritate your skin? Wool is a protein fiber, the same substance as your hair and fingernails. It is highly unlikely that the irritation felt is the wool fiber, perhaps a DYE or FINISH on the fabric is the cause of irritation.
