Sale of ShortHorns. Ever since Thos. Stanton crossed the international boundary from Canada. he has been a prominent figure in the Short-horn trade in this country. He has been connected with a few record- breaking events in the breed's aflairs here, but it remained for him at Au- rora, 11L, Friday, April 8, to add glory to himself, furnish an interesting chap- ter to Short-horn history, and inciden- tally add to the record-breaking list a few records and garner in much cash. He sent the Canadian champion Prince Imperial through the ring at $10,000, the highest-priced chotch bull ever sold at auction in America, a. heifer at $8,050, and made the highest average since the Flatt sale in Chicago, as he sold 50 head for $35,995, an average of $042. This result exceeded the high- est expectations of Mr. Stanton and everyone connected with the sale. He knew he had a. superior lot of cattle. Most of them were quietly collected in less than a year. Much credit in due a man for the judgment used in the selection of such cattle. It takes grit and faith in the breed to gather in such cattle as he offered on sale day. He knew he had the goods. He had faith in them and manifested that faith by making strong but reasonable ‘claims in publicity which proved\ effective, as he made good beyond the most sanguine expectations. The attendance was the largest seen at public sale in recent years, repre- senting many states and Canada. Prince Imperial was bred by W. A. Dryden, Brooklin, Ontario, and shown to cham-_ pionship honors by that breeder. 'He became Mr. Stanton's property‘at $2,- 500, and went to Geo. J. Sayer, McHenry, 111., at $10,000 after a contest with Elmcndorf Farm, Sir Wm. Van Horne and'N. A. Lind. Such a bull has not ' been seen in an auction ring in ‘ this country in years. The list tells the story of the distribution of a most at. tractiVe lot of cattle. Such an excel- lent lot of heifers are rarely seen in anauction. They were the get of great sires, of show form and they sold at good prices. ' ' . It was a great day for the breed and a great feat for a man who deserved it. Few ever draw from supporters of the breed such a tribute a; was shown Mr. Stanton on this occasion. He may well be proud of it. ly distributed and many of the names are new to the breed. A better feeling was never manifested at a sale and the bidding was lively from the opening till the last animal was sent through the ring. Increased evidence of the interest that the farmers are manifesting in the beef cattle industry is shown in the result of the week‘s sales, and Short~ horn men are facing a bright future.â€" Breeders‘ Gazette. [Mn Thos. Stanton is a brother of Mr. J. ll. Stanton of Feuelbn Falls] .0.- To Build Big Barn. The Port Perry Observer sayszâ€"Mr. Worden has closed negotiations with J. J. Grills for the erection on his magnif- icent farm of a mammoth barn, the dim- ensions of which will be 50x162 feet and the cost nearly $7,000. Operations are to begin at once. the largest in the county, and is to be constructed throughout 0n the Worden, system of barn-building. A number of years ago Mr. Grills was a tenant of the farm .he now owns, and 350 acres of bet- ter land is not to be found anywhere. It is situated on the Kingston-road, in the township of Pickering, and three miles west of the town of Whitby. Leaving the farm. three years ago,>Mr. Grills migrated West and became financially interested in mining operations, and lately, ascertaining that the farm he for- morly operatrd was in the market, he purchased it, and is now making exten- sive improvements, not the least being the erection of the magnificent barn ref- erred to. __.__.._. o .â€" Fight for Their Land. What promises to be a big and long legal battle between the Ontario Gov- ernment and the Canadian Company has been opened before Chancellor Boyd in Torcntc. The Government is acting on behalf of scores of farmers and landâ€" owners in the southwestern peninsula to retain the oil and other mineral rights on their property. Preparations for this battle have extended over two the dis- yoars. It was precipitated by covery of oil in Kent count-y. The righ of the farmers to dispose of boring priv- ilcges on their-property was challenged by the Canada Company, who claimed control under patents from the Crown nearly a century old. The legal clash, in certain cases, threatened to become ac- tual warfare, and farmers armed them- selves to protect their property. ._....~_..___._- A Nest of Wild Pigeons. Toronto Globe:â€"-It now seems prob~ able that the $1,000 offered by Dr. Clif- ton Hodgo of Clark University, Worces- ter, Mass., for anest of wilrl pigeons, will go to Mr. Z. Spence, a farmer in Har- wich township, Kent county. Mr. P. H. Bowyer, M. P. P. for East Kent, has written the Provincial Depart- ment of Agriculture, giving notification of Mr. Spence‘s find. Mr Bowycr adds that Mr. Spence is thoroughly reliable. and has seen in his time thousands of wild pigeon. The Department is notifying Mr C. W. Nash, Provincial ornithologist. Several finds of alleged wild pigeons have been reported to the Department heretofore, but they invariable proved to be wild doves. 0-.0 Pctcrboro is receiving quite a revenue rom fines, imposed on “black list" men r being drunk.~ The cattle were wideâ€". ,' This barn will be BE WEIâ€"L.
