AN OcroGENAR1AN PLASrER.-Mr. Richard Boyd,
planter in the county of WARREN who, although
now in his eighty fifth year, superintends his own
farm realized from the sale of his tobacco crop for
the year 1885, after deducting market expenses,
1870 26; and from his wheat crop of the same
year, deducting market expenses, $l,9S5.45; in all
Sc, 3O571, the net proceeds arising from these
crops besides other things, of which he always
makes more than full supply. The bulk of his to-
bacco was made on lands which, some years since
would not have sold for more than two or three dol
lars per acre, fact which proves that while he has
been for the last several years making very fine crops
he has likewise greatly improved the character and
value of the land. The success which has attended
Mr. Boyds planting operations for series of crops,
would reflect credit upon any plagter in the prime
of life, and is we venture to affirm, unsurpassed in
all octogenaran, who alone and unaided, manages
the entire affairs of large plantation. His energy
and industry suffer abatement from age: he gives
his business his constant attention, and we are in
formed, day rarely passes, except the Sabbath, in
which he does not perform some work with his own
hands. Mr.. Boyd is pious old gentleman, whose
example is worthy the imitation of the young and
middle aged while his success is well calculated to
teach them what industry and perseverance may
accomplish.
We obtained the above facts not from Mr. B.
whose modesty is equalled only by his energy, but
they may be relied upon as entirely accurate.
