MARTFORD ITEMS.

Eyerythingin the vegetable world,
since those fine rains, is in very
prosperous condition.
A great deal Of complaint is made
in certain localities against the pO-
tato bug. Complaints charging them
with infringing upon their rights
and property is made by the farmers.
The bug, however, continuesto depre-
date.
Salt from some cause, seems to be
in considerable demand. Orders are
coming in more rapidly than they
can be filled at present.
Weunderstand that Mr.. John Hope
has made arrangement with Mr.. E.
C. Harpold to furnish the Valley City
furnace with coal from the Drs. Meeks
and Knights banks, at Hanging
Rock, this county.
All the furnaces in this and ada
cent vicinity, are in full blast.
Mrs. Surgeon, wifeOf Mr.. Surgeon,
formerly of this place, but now OF
New Haven, is in q very delicate
state of health.
The coal men are all shipping
more or less coal, and business seems
quite flush.
The Messrs. Harpold are doing a
sweeping business in the manufact-
ure ofstayes, turning out from 1900
to 10000 per day. Beat that, if you
can. w.
AS ole of the dangerous elements
that enter into every day use, coal
oil is deserving of a little attention
from the authorities by way of the
regulation of its explosive qualities,
its storage and its use, if possible
The hired girl of the period regular
ly kindles the kitchen fire with it,
and hastens the dinner by dashing a
few tea,cupsful under the pots
The grocer saturates the back end Of
his premises with it, and has a few
barrels lying around loose, to give
volume to the bonfire he may acct
dentally start. The manufactures
adulterates and sublimates as hest
suits his interests. We have some
State law on the subject, but it effects
but little for the protection of the
public. Possibly a little municipal
law could be made benefcial.-Eg.
The Huntington Adrertiser has
some good words of advice to tobacco
growers. There is, perhaps, no one
interest in our State so little under
stood and so greatly neglected, as her
tobacco interests, and Of all our agri-
cultural products this must be large
ly instrumental in proftably clearing
up our forests, cleaning our lands and
clothingourhills withgrass. Where
eve. this crop has been tried, it has
been demonstrated that, for combina.
of qualities, our State equals any for
remuneration. But so far as a rule
it has been carelessly cultivated and
unskilfully handled. The crop is
topped too high, and not well worm
ed; and, when cut; is crowded into
small open houses, where it, curious
to say, both lacks ventilation and is
exposed to the weather. So that, in
stead of having positive colors, most
of our tobacco is of u nondescript va
riety. 1t was fortunate thing that
our Legislature, at its last session,
took hold of this great interest, and
passed fostering laws, which are like
ly to add material stimulus to the
raisingof tobacco in this State.

Good county roads, which facili-
tate trade and REORGANIZATION,
are anindispensable necessity in this
age of civilization. But good roads
will never be obtained under our
present system of "warning" out
hands, as they receive no compensa-
ton for their labor, they do little
more than put in their time. A
general tax for roads, and paying
men for their labor upon them, is
what will secure good roads, and no
other plan will.
