?Ooh a IOJM tn, indeed, sever? to him.
Tho building valued nt $1600, and

A Worthy Enterprise.
We OHH spoeinl attention to tho Lau
rens County Real Fatuto Agency, in nu
other column. This is a most worthy
ontcrpriMc and ono Willoh will ?lo much
towards building up the could ry, procur
ing homes fi.i* those socking small farms
ami facilitating the business of renting
proporty. In connection with this
Agency, OU em migration bureau Will bo
established and proporty controlled by
the Agency will be thoroughly advertised
not only in our own State, but through
out the North und Bust. Large planta
tions ha? o been placed in tholr hands
already and will be divided and Bold to
suit the purchaser.
Valuable water-powers also in tho ad
ler III Hg Counties are offered for salo and
advertised and we would advise all who
have proporty to sell, or have an Idea of
buying, to Call oil or address J, M|

A Suggestion.
Everyone knows, (ami espoo!ally those
acquainted with the details of the lato
Aro in our town), the value of a good
hook and ladder company. The citizens
of our town have placed a beautiful
Truck in tho hands of the young men
who compose this company. In order
to koop up snob an organisation, a cer
tain amount of pride on the part of the
individual members is necessary. This
is impossible ns long as this valuable
property Is allowed to remain on tin1
public square exposed to the weat her,
soon to decay and become worthless.
Wi' simply BUggOSt to our "city fath
ers," (hat with a small outlay of work in
enlarging the the arches nuder the Court
Hons*?, in rear of tho stops, so as to ad
mit the truck Into tho space now unoc
cupied, a convenient sholtei would bo
afforded without Injury to tho Court
House, either in appearance or other
wise.

and Commerce arc essential to a pros
perous State, there cannot be ?nv true
prosperity unless fully shared by tho
Agricultural interests.
\l. That as contributor v lo such pros
perity ami in relief of Hie Agricultural
Interests, there should be ajudlcloUH re
trenchment in both state ami Federal
Covern monts, as far as would bc consis
tent with a proper administration ortho
samt".
:t. That us intelligence ls a condition
precedent lo any enduring prosperity
the Educational System of tho Stale
ought to he preserved with such ad it lons
as would provide a College of Farming
upon a llrst-eblKS scale under sale and
J lld ic iou s regula tiona,
4. That the Wiso and patriotic course
of President Clovobin I In his splendid
enforcement nf (ho Don.ralle Prin
ciple thuUpuhllc ellice is a public trust
commands our highest admiration ami
revives our hope and bel iel't hat Under

sectional feeling extinguished, and ho
able once Inore to teach our children lo
lovoillld honor our National < hive rn ment
as t he ton ulai ii of J ust iee and tho pro
tector of our rights.
?5. Thal experience shows that under
any grievances, there is no advantage
tobe gained by attempting tn atl'oct any
reformation outside of tile Democratic
Itarty, and, that in proportion as we
nive strayed from tho Homoerotic party
in tho samo proportion have wo encoun
tered clangor und disaster.
li. That the adoption of any Constitu
tional Proviso pox ?ding ' for any
class of Qovoruiuont olliolals to lie
created, otherwise than bx- Flec
tion by 0 majority of the whola people
would boin conflict with the priuoiplosof

Mr. EDI rou: Thc gloomy outlook
of our farmers, induces ino to oder
some suggestions that will supply
the deficiency, to a certain extent in
j tho Stock feed, to enable us to tide
i ovef thc winter at least. Plant peas
! ami corn in stubble bottom and
. lands; manure the latter heavily
j ami work rapidly; when the former
: is rip", cut Off tho vines and save
them. Bo careful to notice tho corn
! and before frost comes cut and
I stuck in tito Held. The ears will
I make fair corn in this way, besides
the shucks, fodder and stalks w ill
make good food for cattle.
1 know of instances where corn
bas been drowned on bottom lands
tho stalks are allowed to stand ami
corn planted between each row,sav
ing the older corn lo cut down in
a week or two for forage.
Every available patch of grass
and rag or bog weed that follows
I small grain should be cut at the
I proper time and saved. The lat
: ter Should be cut before the 900(1
matures. All efforts should bo
mude to save every bundle ol' for
age. If the season continues, tho sec*
; conti cutting of clover will furnish
I au abundance of nutritious food.
