JAMES S. GRINNELL
The object of these communications
are to attract the attention of farmers to
ibis breed OF hogs, hoping some public
spirited one, or number OF them united,
will get some of the pure blood. known
TO be such. If they are near wha! they
are represented 10 be, it would be great
ding for our county to have this blood
and crossed with those we now
have, There were shipped from our
Depot in 1862, 6,045 head of live hogs,
and 4l8,474 lbs. Of dressed. Calling
these to weigh $50 lbs. each, il would
make 1913, amounting 10 7,7I8 hogs
sent from this place Now, il by the
Improvement Of breed, these could be In
creased 100 lbs. each, at SO 80 per hun.
dred only, It would amount TO Sl9295. !
AS my object is 10 present facts, and let
them have their own influence. | close
by calling the attention of your patrons
TO one point Of Mr.. Browns statement.
viz Each bushel Of his mixture of feed
made 10 lbs Of dressed pork showing
that il hogs are well taken care of, they |
pay better than to sell corn at % cents

Mr.. EDITOR : AS the people begin TO

claim that the northern portion OF the

WASHINGTON, May 6. The truth that both
Ulcers and men to considerable number, daily
| rive from the Rappahannock and proceed to

[aton that the army will not Immediately make
movement against the enemy.

10 reliance to be placed in the rumors concern

There is no truth in the alleged threatening
movements of Moseby cavalry in London coun-
IN. They number but $50 men, and no raid on
Ele Baltimore & Ohio, or any other road, is at
HI probable, or, indeed, possible.

a. GOOD care was taken OF them while they re-
haned in the enemy's lines as could be reason

Secretary Stanton is understood to have de
