and now for the corrections. In the
first place it was in Mobiles county that
Weston lived. was frozen to death and
found. and where he appeared in the
spirit' and the place designated by the
spirit was II miles northwest of Hersey,
and not on his farm rs state by Remle.
The people did not repair to the spot
with spades, shovels, etc, for, with one
exception, they did not believe in the
''ghost story.' The exception was a
Sweede by the name of Erickson and
he visited the spot every time there
was Il thaw or Il change in the snow
drifts by the wind, until at length his
vigilance was rewarded by finding the
body. Wedoubt very much il Mr.. Davis
ever met Mr.. Weston; we know posit.
lively that he did not after his DEATH
A complete history of the whole affair
was published in the Worthington Adj

\ few more scarts such as the Re.
publican party got last fall. may in
fuse temporary sense into the fools who
have been lrgislating fer us for the past
ten or fifteen years.
But there really appears to be ~ re-
action setting in among the people.
The rule Of the Protest mt Priesthood
is on the X;luc. They have demanded
Laws providing what we shall eat and
drink, what we shall publish and read
what days we shall publish newspapers:
how we shall observe :he day OH which
they preach sprm,it called Sunday.
and host Of other absurd laws. all
tending t" the Sn'vprsiou Of personal
liberty and the tightening Of their ow,,
grip nl the people. Su:i. societies rs

the people and they are organizing to
resist. May the rule "f the Protestant
Priesthood in our day bc more blief
than it was IN New England when men
We're burned, hanged, whipped, dragged
through tive ST tve..ts, etc.. 1T the beck
and rod OF q licked and bloody clergy.

our question ~ith one instance s~lt cted
from that county:
One uf the mahy instances showing
the l'v, lit I'll farming operations in
Rock county ard like wise the increase
in the value nf lands, is furnished by
the experience cf james Sorenson.-
Last spl ing he bought Il quarter section
If land in this township for 5000. He
rented 90 acres to B. :. Bulls whic'
brought him as his share OF the crop2,
900 bushels of oats. On the same farm
he raised ECO bushels of rye and from
the sale OF both crops received i net
profit of 81 800. Within four months
after the purchase, he sold the farm
for 81. 7CO, and thus realized in clean
cash above all expense profit of ST.
O4O from the transaction. This farm
has since heen sold for 81. 3OO.
TALUE or CREAMLRIES.
j. F. Farmer, of the Spring Valley
balk, Fillmore county, says:
II is less than two years since the
creamel its started, and 1 know that
they have adLth largely to the income
nf the farmers. November, 1880, n.
Elliot paid for stock 1T this place S.
442; November. 1882, Elliot u Reidle
paid for stock S13,92l. and the average
will Eoll good during all the months
of the year. Figures are facts: Fill

makes $500, 600 paid for cream ia Fill
moe county, which would spread but.
ter on many an acre Of wheat.
