Recent cattle sales at the Bill Bray auction yards have caused a lot of optimism among cattle men and farm ers attending the sales. At a recent visit there we saw sev eral price-squeezed farmers smoking cigars, some of whom heretofore had been satisfied with cigarettes and some who were forced to forgo them. Charley Hoover, who doesn't indulge in such things, was treating his undernour ished friends to pop and cof fee, while he bid in a dozen likely looking shoajs to en-1 ranee the looks of his dried pear piggery.
