sMALLEY 8 BRo's FOUNDRY.


This business was established in 1854.
Its success has been variable, according
to the times, and the manner in which it
has been conducted We are happy to
state, however. that it is now being push
ed ahead with yigor and promises well
for the future. The work is done in six
different departments, viz: The mould
ing room, blacksmith shop, room for
wood work. finishing room, store room
and Office. The principal article manu-
featured is a superior steel and iron pillow
the mould board being of steel, and
the remainder, of an excellent quality of
cast IRON The following are the different
plows which this firm are now offering
for sale: Lord" ''Iron and Steel"
Meadow" ''Peekskill," and Sweep
stakes. They also manufacture corn
plows, cultivators &c. Hir. Herschel
Smalley has charge of the business and
Is pushing 1t with an energy which is sure
TO reap rich reward The firm of
Smalley Il Co.-not Smalley Il Bro
has an agency for the sale of Threshing
Machines, Reapers &c Three years ago
they sold one 'Sweepstakes" Machines (;
two years ago they sold three, and this
season they have thus far sold serenteen
They have also sold large number of
the Buckeye and New Yorker rea-
pers. We mention these matters to
show how rapidly our county is advanc-
ing IN everything that adds material
wealth to community Aud we must
acknowledge that although our oppor-
tunltles for seeing what is going on in the
county are very good, we are surprised
at times at the wonderful rapidity of inn
prOyement In our midst.

MERCHANTS UNION. Agent of
this Express Co., Mr. Eli p Vary, in
formed us while in Milwaukee a short
time since that he should run an express
line FROM Milwaukee direct to this place
every other day at least and oftener if
the business Of the route required it,
during the coming winter. We imagine
that this will be great advantage to our
business men, over the old system upon
which they have had to rely
