PusLic SALES IN COUNTY.—There will
be the usual large number of public sales
in Centre county this Spring and if the
few that have already been held can be
taken as a criterion stock and everything
else will bring good prices. L. Frank
Mayes, of Lemont, who is only one of
about eight or ten auctioneers in the
county, has a sale for every day but Sun.
days during the month of March and has
been engaged every day for the past
week or more. Even crediting Mr,
Mayes with haying an unusually large
number of engagements, yet taking his
list as a basis the total number of sales to
be held in the county this spring will ex-
ceed one hundred and probably reach one
hundred and fifty. The receipts from an
average farm sale amount to from $2,000
to $2,500. Very few of any size, fall below
these figures while many aggregate any-
where from three to five thousand dol-
lars, and last spring there were one or
two in the county that ran over seven
thousand. With these figures itis very
easy to figure out the total amount of
property that will change hands through
the medium of the Public sale.

ing after the lumber and coal interests
in West Virginia left by his father. He

active interest in church affairs.
