Agricultural implements.

Davis & Townshend are agents for
the Celebrated Brown Wagon, Cham
pion Reaper and Mower, Champion
Grain Drill, Telegraph Feed Cutter,
the Genuine South Bend Chilled
Pillow, Dickev Tanning Mill and the
famous Thomas Hay Rakes. Our
experience in farming, the practical
use of the articles of machinery
named, and close observation, with
desire to secure and sell none but
the best, has led the the selection of
the above. The universal praise we
have from those who purchased and
used them confirms US in the opinion
that we have the articles best adapted
to our part of the country. We call
special attention to the New Cha n. :
pion Mower and Thomas Hay Rake
for rough or hitly land. We have
sold between 25 and 80 of these ma
chimes during the last three years,
and are safe in saying that there has
not been five dollars expended in re-
pairs for the whole in that time.
Should repairs be needed persons
buying machines in general use will
have no trouble in procuring them.

A Huge Concern.

The manufacturers of the Genuine
Singer Machine state these facts:
That they er1ploy forty thousand
persons and eighty thousand horses.
Have their own steamboat and loce-
motive transporting machines and
material between New YORK and
their immense factory at Elizabeth,
N. J. The total estimate of offices
throughout the world is over four
thousand five hundred. Their fac
tory covers an area of thirteen acres
of ground, and every square foot is
daily used, beside most of the shops
are three and four stories. The box
ing and Grating shop alone cut over
one hundred Thousand feet of lumber
per day for boxing and Grating ma
chimes. To drive the machinery in
this enormous affair six stationary
engines are required, which have the
combined strength of one thousand
horse power. Four hundred men
are employed in the foundry, which
melts up sixty tons of iron every day
in the week. Just imagine a two
acre field filled every day with cast
ings for sewing machines. The ne
cessity for this great factory is the
constant demand for the Genuine
Singer machine, as the following will
show: In the year 1878 three-quars
tiers of all the machines sold through
out the world were Genuine Singers,
and the following year they increas-
ed their sales over one hundred and
thirty. eight thousand, and during
the year 1880 they sold over half a
million Genuine Singer Machines.
Still the demand is greater than the
supply, as subordinate offices often
have to wait for machines. To those
who contemplate buying we would
say: Be on the safe side and buy
the Genuine Singer, and don't be
humbugged with some new kind OF
machine that has lately come out,
and has no reputation or merit what
ever. If you wish Genuine Singer
mo Bogus call on or address l. w.
Slonaker, Oakland, Md, who is agent
for this world renowned Sewing
Machine.
N. B. Singer agents will adjust
the Singer Machine wherever they
find it, free of charge, regardless of
the time it has been in use.

Attemnt 10 Wreck a Train.

On Monday morning diabolicai
attempt was made to wreck passen-
ger train No 2, which passes here
about O'Clock a. M, by removing
some of the fastenings and partially
opening the switch east of the water
station. The object WIS in measure
defeated, as an extra" an emigrant
train, preceded No. 2. The extra
was not running at the usual rate of
speed from the fact that the engineer
intended stopping here for water, or
the lass of life might have been fear
full, as there were about 200 emigrants
aboard. The engine and 6 cars were
thrown from the track and much
damage done, but no lives we're lost.
nor was any one seriously injured.

The real reason why people out
side of Garrett county think Oakland
is dead and has no trade, is because
the merchants don't advertise. Peo-
pie not seeing the names of Oakland
business men in the county papers
naturally conclude there Is little
trade here to advertise.

showed the indentation Of his teeth
in the solid oak.

we had good sleighing, then a rain
