trade of beef and mutton to England. If
this succeeds, and grows, as new seems
probable, it will provide way out of
our heretofore greatest difficulty. In.
stead of growing and exporting grain,
we shall grow and use it ourselves, and

history of the early settlement of our eoun-
ty handed down to our descendant as any
One-but let us have it just as it transPir-

lapse of so many years. Now there is
history Of the early settlement Of New

edited by Mr.. Howells of jefferson, said to
be compiled from early records and verbal
accounts of old residents of the town. 1
feel it my duty to enter protest as to its
being true history, as there are many
statements that know to be erroneous, and
do injustice to some of the old pioneers,
that are dead and gone and cannot stand
for their own rights. S. ]. PECK. yR.

Eds. Tel.-The season thus fer with US,
has been all that heart could desire, and
our farmers have made good use of their
time in putting in their crops. Oats, in
their season, we're put in on large scale,
and in fine condition. Potatoes were also
planted on larger scale than usual-not
only large fields have been planted, but
the highways for miles have been planted
up to their very bitches, and what is bet
ter, every body has plenty and few bush
els to spare. We find ourselves in the same
predicament, and we have sought in vain
to find any one who wanted few bushels
of choice article; the answer to our in
quiry is invariably the same-a few to
spare, and no one wants them. 1t might
be well for all to know that there is no
cheaper or better food for the chick than
potatoes, even at the former high price Of
81 per bushel. Let them be washed clean,
boiled and mashed fine. This food will
cause the little ones to grow, whilst it
will cause the older ones to roll out the
eggs-however much it may be against
their inclination to do so at the present
low prices
Our farmers have been untiring in their
efforts to put in large crop of corn, which
is being done on an unusually large scale,
with the soil in as fine condition as could
be wished. Our fruit prospects are truly
fine; peach and pear trees have blossomed
full and appear to be in healthy condi-
ton. The prospects for small fruits are
equally encouraging.
We have factory near us that works up
the milk from some 1, 100 cows-some 500
less than last year. They take milk once
a day, allowing their patrons to skim their
nights milk. Quite number Of dairymen
have gone back to the old system and work
up their milk at home. We have lately
made call on some of them and find their
cheese fully up to the standard of the best
factory made, and they find a ready sale
at the highest market price. We also no.
tice that every farmer is raising more or
less fine calves, selected from their choicest
stock. When these mature. and farmers
return to the old system of raising stock,
and making their own butter and cheese,
we trust we shall have an end to the CRY of
hard times. II is to be regretted that so
little cheese is used in our own families, as
it is cheap food, and both nutricious and
healthy; yet we know Of no place where it
can be procured for that purpose nearer
than Pittsburgh or Cleveland. If cheese
was kept for sale, as it should be, at all Of
our country stores, the ammount annually
consumed at home would no doubt be
large. Our growing wheat crop is in a
prosperous condition; many fields would
be hard to beat in any State: some few
pieces are a little injured. 1t is to be re-
gretted that so much money is annually
sent out of the country to purchase wheat
for its inhabitants, when so many thous-
ands Of acres of choice wheat lands remain
dead letter simply for the want Of suita-
BILE cultivation. UNCLE TIN.
