; what a Farmer may do.

e : -. 6 ii - 80 A
Mr.. Peter Melsndy, an intelligent and
en.erprising Farmer, living in Hamilton
county, some eight or ten miles north Of
Cincinnati, has q farm Of one hundred
acres, which in 1853 took premium
given by the State Board Of Agriculture,
for the beauty and perfection OF its ar.
Tangemen,s. Last year al the Nation 81
Cattle Show, at Springfield ,she received
four first premiums, and one second pre-.
mium on catlIs when ne exhibited there,
amounting 10 the sum Of $425. Al the
State Fair at Newark, he received six
premiums, amounting TO 900, and one
diploma. Al rhe Hamilton county Fair,
he received on his cattle eight premiums;
on his sheep aHd wool seven; on his swine,
Two; on his poultry, premiums and diplo.
mas eight; on his vegetables four, and on
his grain four; making in all according
to, correspondent oil the Cleveland
Farmer. forty -four premiums. amounting
10 $589, and ten diPlomas.
The above does not include the premi.
um taken the year before on his little
iarm. Our readers will see by this rssul,
that success in agriculture and stock rails,
! ing does not consist so much in the greal
! size OF the farm or the quantity Of tbs
stock raised on it. as it does on the judi
cious and skiliul treatment OF what We
have Wilmington Republican.
