A Man who Understands his
True Interests.

We take great pleasure in annOunc-
ing to u readers the Iabors Of a sin
gle enterprising individual in this
county. D. Y. CULBERTsON, of Glen
Rock precinct commenced operations
on the open prairie one year ago last
March. He now has under the pillow,
one hundred and ten acres. The past
spring he planted ten thousand young
cottonwood trees two hundred apple
trees; two hundred peach trees; sev-
enty-fve grape vines; five hundred
and fifty ~currants; one hundred and
forty goOseberries ; one hundred and
twenty ~raspberries; one hundred
strawberries, and e~vergreens and
shrubs without number. He has also
planted twelve bushels of walnuts,
which nearly all grew, and together
with all his planting, are doing well.
Let one half the farmers in Nemaha
county, or in Nebraska, do One-half
what Mr.. Culbertson has done, and
what will be the result to the country
and to to their Ol0n pockets in a very
few years2 If Mr.. G. wished to sell
his farm to-day, he could get twice
the price adjoining land will bring,
without the same improvements in
the way Of planting.

We learn from the Nebraska City
Ne0s that the enteFprising farmers Of
that vicinity are alive 10 tbequestiOn
Of improved stock. d. J. Mccain,
James A. Gilmore, James Wood, Mr..
Epler, and Robt. Kirkham have re-
Gently added to the number and quail
ity of their Durham herds. They
have all, heretofore, been character
lied for their enterprise in obtaining
and introducing improved herds Of
cattle.
Messrs. Eaton, Kirkham, Utiey and
Moore have been obtaining a new
stock of Chester Whites; Messrs. Gil
more, Morton, Smith, Garadet, VIII
son ard Eaton have been introducing
Suffolk, Magee, Berkshire and Che
shire, and Mr.. McMechan has i'm
ported some Irish Graziers directly
from Ireland.
The NeUs truly says: ""These gen.
tlemen are benefactors. They are do
ing.themselves a good turn, to be sure,
butthey are doing more for Nebraska
and her pastoral interests. They
merit and viii receive the hearty
Communication of true lovers of the
advancement and prosperity of the
farming interests of the State"
The farmers in Nemaha must look
% it, If they intend to keep up with
Cass, Otoe and Richardson. The far
uiers and others in these counties are
wide-awake, and win be heard from
at the next State Fair. We hear con-
siderable talk among the farmers, but
not much action yet. We understand
that Mr.. John Grow. who is opening
up a farm in this county, has brought
on some very fine Berkshire hogs.
We noticed, too, at the express office
in this place not long since, a pair of
POlands; also some Chester Whites
for Mr.. LoveIess. We have purchased
a pair of YOrkshires of w. w. Chen
cry, Belmont, Mass, which will be
on shortly. Let some of u folks
club together, if in no better way, and
get on some improved cattle and
horses.

HOLSTEIN, OR DUTCH HERD Book.
We have received from w. w. CHEN
ERY, Boston, Mass, acOpy of a pamph-
letOf sixty four pages, with the above
title. Mr.. Chenery is proprietor of
the Highland Stock Farm, Belmont,
Middlesex county, Massachusetts,. He
is an extensive importer, breeder and
dealer in fine horses, cattle, sheep,
hogs, and other live stock. MI. Chen
cry is paying great attention to the
introduction into this country of the
HambletOnian and other high bred
horses, Holstein or Dutch cattle,
Yorkshire swine, Moulton Flandrin,
IineOlh and Caraman sheep. The
pamphlet contains fine illustrations of
all these breeds and varieties of ami
mails a history, pedigree and detailed
description of each animal imported,
bred, and for sale.
We agree entirely with MI. Chen
cry as to the position he has taken,
and is SO ably maintaining, with ref
erence to the Holstein cattle and York
shire hogs. We are satisfied that the
Yorkshire hogs possess, to a satisfac-
tory extent, leading and essential
Characteristics, viz: extraordinary de-
velOpment of the ieshy parts, with
smallness of bone and offaI; great
aptitude to take on flesh; not large or
greedy eaters, but thrifty good feed
ers, and fatten kindly at any age,
Weighing from four to six hundred
pounds at between one end two years

ses. OF Mr.. Chenery's farm and his
stock we viii have more to say.
