DAIRY FARMING.

AT the commencement Of New Year
we do not know that We can better
devote space in our columns than t.
calling the attention of farmers to the
extraordinary statements recently
made at New York by eminent gen.
tlemen, in regard to the results OF
''Dairy Farming in the United
States. .-t.
From every portion of our county
complaints reach us from those that
ought to know best, that ordinary
farming is no longer worth following,
and it certainly does look as if rs
cents per bushel for wheat, 20 cents
a bushel for corn, 5 cents a pound
for tobacco won't pay. Neither can
any thirg be made any longer in fat
tening stock. But we. are told that
diaries pay well i'm both the East and
West; aud If that is so, no county in
tho whole country is better adapted
to tfat sort Of farming than our own.
