winch can be shown, that vast amount
OF money has been, and still is being drain.
ed from our county to pay for grain Aonr
and bacon, which money, if it was now in
our midst and scattered among the differ
eehI classes OF our community, would make
The means OF paying debts quite easy in
comparison with what they now are:
therefore,
Re8olLed, That the people of ClearfeId

ssted IN the subject Of Agriculture than in
my other matter whatever, and il be.

our farmers, but also that our mechanics
aGhy Of Chom can turn out as good ,gcrk as equ

My sympathy, but actual cooperation in
ur efforts to raise the Science of Aaricul,
ure to Its proper position in our midst. as
heir interests depend in great measure
POI the success Of our farmers.
RcSolUed, That our merchants and Inn
'emen are more deeply interested in the
uness Of the farmer than any other class
u business men, and that it is especially
hdr duty to aid in promoting all their in.
erests and that our professional men-the
aWyer, the physician, the clergy and the
