eaY5eThe benefit Of agood corn cfc1
in our county the past seasolt is alresd.,
being plainly. exhibited. Within TIL
past ten or twelve day. Messr. Maxwil
& Burge took ont 8 drove Of about
100 hogs, Mcssrs SIMPLY & Wcchsl2i
and MeAsrs. Prime & Twdgood 100.
The latter gentlemen are nov purchasing
IN the north part Of the county.
ssY These hogs were all purchased from
our farmers and millers ut four cents
per pound live weight.
It strikes us that our farmers
cannot complain the present season
with the price paid for porkcrs. We
IRE always well pleased however with
prices that rule in their favor, for upon
their prosperity depends that Of the
whole country.
The above droves are not MI that
have been driven out Of orr county
this fall, but they are all Of which we
have any correct knowledge.
We are credibly informed that there
Is still in the hands Of our people, at
least 700, or 500 more hogs, which will
find their way to market in some shape
yet this fall.
Messrs. Dolltle &Stewart have con-
tributed largely to the numbers already
driven Out. Last July they sold A.,
and last week so, and they have still on
hand so more
They are also doing an extensive
business with their Touring mill, hav-
ing ground since the first of August
about 5000 bushels of wheat besides
xonc corn !; all Of which was for home
consumption.
