fellows appointed by Mcmillan as deputy
marShals, while process ia Issued out OF
Federal court to protect one of the deputies

Outside OF u little group OF radical politi-
clans, who hope TO make politically by
using the odious Federal election laws, to
prevent interference with the fraudulent oon-
duct Of deputy marshsls hereafter, there is
no man who eau or does approve of the con-
duct OF Valentine and his confreres in the
effort TO secure immunity to deputy marshas
for palpable violations of law and decency,
with view to their efficiency hereafter as
agents FOR the accomplishment of fraudulent
practices at elections We hope Judge Brad
ford will not lend himself to the plans Of
these men, but at least keep his court from
being further suspected OF completely with
the schemes OF INSCRIPTIONS party managers.
Justice should have an abode somewhere and

The agricultural editor OF the Salisbury
Advertiser says if farmers, this fall, sell their
corn at 30 cents per bushel as usual, we shall
think they have not made much progress in
knowledge, and their success (as we believe
1t Isl may be more the result of a fruitful soil
and the favor of a bountifu Providence than
a manifestation Of their extraordinary skill
and Judgment If those who have plenty of
corn now will begin to feed it to good stock
it will pay them in three ways; First, in the
production of butter, beef, pork and manure.
len good COWS can be fed one year on 200
bushels of corn, meal or hominy, with some
turnips, beets, nc; with a supply of wheat
or oat straw, hay and fodder say 300 worth
This outlay Of 5000 will keep ten COWS we'll
These ten cows will produce 80 pounds OF
good butter per week, at 25 cents per pound
would be $3.50 per week or 1890 per year
The buttermilk will feed ten hogs, which will
average 400 pounds each, or 1000 pounds OF
pork which is worth Sc per hundred, or $40,
making, with the money for the butter, $3.50.
The manure raised by these ten COWS and ten
hogs if properly attended to with litter and
earth would be worth 20 tons of the best
phosphate at $50 per ton, S4OO, making an
income If 1000 at an expense of labor of
about 5000, all of which can be done by the
family, in addition to cultvatlng the farm, at
which time heavy crop of corn, wheat, oats,
rye potatoes, clover, hay and small fruits can
all be grown with the msnures thus accumu-
lated"
