The great trouble with sewing machines, thus
far has been that those which are good for any
thing such "a Singers, Grover Bakers, or
Wheeler 4 Wilson's ARE too expensive. whilst the
cheaper ones were made SO imperfect that they
did not answer the purpose. Mcssrs George F.

THg Turkey Hollow route to the lower
thi. winter. Our people are aware that this
route saves some four or FIVE miles travel in
coming from Edgington, Buffalo Prairie, Dru-
nv, and Andalusia, and when the ice will ad.
nit of crossing Rock River near its mouth,
the travel from the lower part of the county
generally comes that route, taking the road
by way of Warmers distlllery.
Large quantities of flour from Andalusia
come over tina, route every day, pair of hor-
Sos bringing twelve or thirteen barrels to q
load easily.
Great quantities of corn from the lower
part of the county, probably from 30 to %
teams day, come that route to the distilery.
1t would be greatly to the interest Of the
people Of the lower part Of the county if
permanent road was constructed through Tur-
key Hollow, even if they had only ferry at
Rock River. OF course permanent bridge
would be preferable, but if the road was con
structed and ferry established at the mouth
Of Rock River, the bridge would Ultimately
be constructed if the route should prove ad-
vantageous to the public.
Cannot something be done towards the cons
truction Of the road aud establishing the ferry,
in the spring? We believe the people in the
lower part Of the county would literally aid
the enterprise.
