This is the season for country
auctions. Many farm machinery
sales are held at this time of year.
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.

Notebook
Ida Bisser
*l'#
- Whenever I attend a sale, 1 am
reminded of the oddities stored in
my attic. 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.
