Oncay farm in Leh- | an Township. Merton E. Bunnell will lift the | hammer at exactly 11 a. m. Many owners of small farms have already inspected the herd with in- tentions of bidding in stock which largely stems from the Hillside Farms, and NEBA sires.

It js almost impossible to obtain good help, managers who are able to manage, without going up into a wage bracket which makes dairy- ing no longer profitable. Continued drought has cut down ee for silage. Feed, purchased in- head of home-grown, cancels out income. Mr. Oncay is reluctant to part with his herd. The creameries to which he sold his milk are regretful. Milk distrib- utors are going farther and farther afield to procure a steady supply. The community, which cherishes its herds of sleek cattle, is regretful. The herds are going. The Rice farm, which used to show black and white cattle on iits rolling acres, now shows a housing development. The prize Guernsey herd at Goodleigh Farm was dispersed some years ago. At the dispersal sale on Friday, tractors, barn cleaners, and many other pieces of farm equip- ment will be offered for sale. There will be a lunch tent on the grounds.

Fire At Laundry Stems From Light On one of the muggiest days of | the summer patrons in Shavertown Shopping Center were treated to a heavy smoke barrage when a fluor- escent light fixture ballast in the Wormeck Laundromat caught fire. Twelve firemen under the direc- i tion of Chief William Frederick an- swered the call at 5 p. m., Monday afternoon. Approximately ten feet of ceiling and the light fixture were removed by the firemen. Smoke poured into the Acme | Store next door gaining entry | through a crack in the fire wall expansion. The weather maker in the air condition- ing unit was turned on, clearing the big market in a short time. Chief Frederick dismissed his men after tearing out the fixture and ceiling blocks but remained on the scene to check the trouble further. Still smelling burning material, he recalled assistant chiefss Walter Davis and Joseph Youngblood. Be- hind the dryers they found debris from the ceiling which was lying | upon the wires and smoldering. Up- on removal of the broken blocks, the danger was ended.
