Quasqueton Items.

i
EH- We visited Quasqueton the past
week, and found our neighbors there do
ing very fair moiety of business, and
making some noticeable improvements.
Messrs LEWIS IL KENT have had quite
an extensive Furniture Mandatory in
operation for some time. Their large
Ware Room is well filled with a tasteful
and excellent assortm mt Of Tables, Bed
steads, What ots, Bureaus, Chairs,
Washstands, &C., and we are pleased to
learn that the demand for their goods is
equal to their present capacity for man.
uacture. They have abundant facilities
excellent water power, saws for cutting,
lathes for turning, and every appliance
to do their work skillfully. rapidly. and
cheaply. We can commend their estab-
lishment TO those of our county readers
in need of any article of furniture.
Our friend, CHARLEY CRAY, has also
made extensive improvements in his es.
Enlistment, and intends to engage
largely, or exclusively, hereafter, in the
manufacture of plows. He has just fin
ished putting in fine little steam engine,
which works to charm, and which will
give him all the desired facilities for pol
ishing the plows, turning the wood work,
&c. His plows has always been popular,
and through their excellence, and with
his facilities for turning them out rapid
ly and cheaply, we think he will eventu-
ally be enabled to monopolize the pillow
trade of this county. We trust, at least,
that every man in our county will not
forget the obligations resting upon him
to encourage, as far as he can, these
home manufactures. If they are at all
worthy his support, his own welfare, as
we'll as that Of the county, is connected
with their encouragement. BY all means
give them the preference they deserve.
