BETHANY, BROOKE COUNTY, I
January 18th, 1876. J
Editors of the Register:
The Patrons Of Husbandry are getting
a firmer and more secure footing each
day IN our midst. The Bethany Grange
was organized on the 18th of last August
with only twenty five members, and at
the time Of writing upwards of fifty mem.
bers are enrolled. Do these figures in
d,cate the downfall of the Order2 We
think not when it is remembered that we
are directly between two other Oranges.
They have fine hall in which to hold
their meetings. They have able and
efficient officers, and their members all
stand in good repute, l believe. wherever
known. The Order is intended, princi-
pally, to benefit the farmer, but whoever
resides in community, let his occupa-
ton be what 1t may, cannot lail to re-
ceive some benefit from it. We bid adieu
to the Order at present, hoping that it
may long survive the assaults ofits enc
mics.
Brooke county has for quite anumber
of wears been placed first upon the list of
sheen raising counties of this and ad-
Joining States, and not without cause.
Our stock has been greatly improved
during the past year by importations
from Vermont. Col. A. w. Gist has
lust returned from the above named
State with nice addition to his focks.
Mr.. G. is al enterprising farmer, and
deserves great credit for his efforts to
improve our stock of sheep. Col. &. ID.
Bcal has also procured some fine ewes
from the State Of Vermont. A look
around would make one believe that
every person made use OF the brand &c.
II. B." as the Col. has enough sheep
marked thus to supply ascore OF TURNER'S.
There are other noted sheep raisers In
! the county, but let what we have men
toned suffice for the present.
Several State tickets have been pro
posed for the next Democratic Conyen-
ton to chew at, and We can see no i'm
propriety for us to add one to the num-
bers. We have copied to certain ex-
tent from your correspondent from
| Roane. We have also added ticket for
Broke county, which we know to men
ton the names OF none, save trustworthy
| men.

Democratic from centre to circumter'
ence and all men of the finest stamp
I venture to assert that there is scarcely
a Democrat but that can vote this ticket
The citizens of Brooke would de well 70
nerusc this ticket before they go farther
snd fare worse. Nothing but an innuH
OF the military element can elect hsd,
ical ticket, as the people have tired 0'
this defrauding rule. JAoA NUE.
