the wheel and determine, while the
thing is new and getting over the con-
sequent friction, to bear and forbear,
success will be SURF to follow, and the
very first year will prove profitable to
the farmers and the creameries. We
make this suggestion because we know
that there are difficulties to overcome.
This Is not a milking state: i. e., farm
ers have not heretofore turned their
attention to dairying, to milking COWS,
Many of them think from the trouble
they have had in getting milking done
In a desultory, perfunctory way. that
they cannot have it done at all. This
difficulty will disappear very rapidly
whenever milking is made a regular
part of the farm work, and not expect
ed to be done in addition to a DAYS
work. No doubt there will be little
trials for the farmers, but these will be
multiplied to the creameries very near
ly in the ratio which the former out
number the latter. Both parties should
determine to achieve success by over
coming obstacles. BOnanZas do not
grow on trees in these times to be
plucked without labor or inconveni-
ence. Nothing that is worth having
can be obtained without work.
We believe that the creamery dairy
system is worth a great deal to a farm
ing community, and while we ask 9th.
ers to help make it successful here, We
expect to do our part toward the same
end, and with this view our columns
are open for a discussion of its merits,
or we shall at all times take pleasure in
answering any questions that may be
asked ns regarding it.

THE cREAMERIEs.

The two Lafayette county creameries
are in course of construction and will
be ready for work about May l. The
time is nearly at hand, and the farmers
who live contiguous to Lexington or
Higginsville should be giving the sub
-ject their consideration. Our farmers
are often accused of being old fogies.
No doubt there are a few of them who
are 80, but as a class we think they are
anythingelse Our observation is, that
they are wide-awaks, and always
ready to adopt the best modes of Gull
ture and improved implements and
machinery. This fact can be easily
attested.
In what part of the United States are
larger crops grown than here !? In
1882 Lafayett ecounty produced the
wheat crop Of any county in
the country. Her aggregate of all pro-
ducts will, four years out of five, be
found to place her among the 20 lead
ing counties in the United States.
These may to be extravaganza
statements, but they are not-they SIM
ply prove that Lafayette is one of the
most fertile ayr icultural counties in
in America, and chat her farmers are
live, energetic men, who make the most
their advantages. AS to their ma
shinery, everybody knows that they
buy the best that is made.
Farming is as subject to the laws of
evolution as are the primary princi-
oles with which it has to deal. Modes
were thought good enough thir-
y years ago have been 80 long discard
that the new generation only know
If them by tradition.
1t is uniformly conceded that dairy
ng will add to our farmers yearly in
come, while better preserving their
ands. 1t will do this, too, with easier
'ather than harder work, and above
Ill with easier work to the good wife,
Who niue times out of ten has on her
more than abe ouoht ia do

Jail Delivery.-on Sunday nigh, sbsut
ten o'clock the inmates of our jail succeeded
in freeing themselves from their solitary con-
fnement, by breaking out of tue insecure
concern, aud making good their escap, The
prisoners, ia number, we're confined in one
cell, from which they escaped by tearing
down the plastering over tn. door Of the cell
and obtaining entrance into the ball OF the
Jail, being once in the hall there was no, hing
between them and liberty, but pine plank
door, which they quickly knocked to pieces
and delivered themselves eucs more int. the
bountiful joys Of freedom About month
ago a prisoner escaped by pretty much the
same way, and the attention Of the County
Commissioners was then called to the nse-
curity Of our Jail, but nothing had been don.
to render il more safe as a prison. The Jail,
like our court house, and Port Tobacco is on
the gradual plane of decline, and unless
something is done soon by way Of improve
ment, SLEEPY Hollow" will become nui-
sance as a village, aud still more so as
county seat. 1t is pitifu shsme that the
mSjority of our public spirited citizens should
allow the handful Of persons living in Port
Tobacco to dictate to them AS to. whether our
county seat should be removed or not, and
our court house and jail be placed on foot
ing OF responsibility, and not a. it nov is, n

IaAd.-The usual spring emigration west

series Of Baltimore and Ohio excursions left
Hsgsrstswn with eighty passengers destined

gers from the line of the Valley Railroad, and
thirty from the line OF the Pittsburg Division,
making total of la excursionists in all, and
aecsssitsting ssecond section. Theemigrants
were farmers of moderate means and their
families, who expect to better their condition
in the West. The other excursion left on last
Tuesday, March 4th, and others will leave
every Tuesday until the last of April. The
prospects are that about the same number OIL
people will leave this year as last, Kansas and
Nebraska being the fsvorite points. Every
year large number of Western Marylsnders,
dissatisfied with their prospects al home, sci
ost for the West, and sooner or later many oil

has been taken 10 this direction, even though
BY a stranger, but we fear, if the object is to
obtain . reflection of the sentiment of our
people, as to he propriety of new local OPP
ton bill this year, they are too late, for the
busy hours Of the present session of the Legis-
lsture are now lastly crowding upon 1t, and
unless extraordinary vigilence is exerted. a
bill Of the kind could not be passed. How
ever, the agitation ESQ great moral question
10 always productive ofsome good, even il We
cannot get a bill during the present session Of
the Legislature, and we hope these meetings
will I've well attended. For our part, we are
ready to lend helping hand to the cfuse and
to do sh,il sus power 70 free the county from
the damning influence Of alcohol, or the in
nusnce Of sny other pernicious habit that is
calculated to lower and degrade our people.
Since writing the ABOVE, We notice that
Senator Lancaster has Obtained leave to In
troduce local option hill, but still We are OF
the opinion that unless it is pressed with Wig

way to do this is to place the advertisement
