Beech Grove Farm.

But very small percentage Of the
farmers of this part Of the country have
any adequate idea of the farms in the
West, devoted entirely to grazing for
dairy or stock purposes. If Il farmer in
this vicinity owns a farm Of one or
two hundred acres, and upon it in con-
nection with the yearly groupings raises
and sends ont twenty or thirty head of
fat cattle or furnishes weekly to bis
market, from the same number O. milch
cows a hundred or a hundred and twenty
five pounds of butter. It is thought to
be a great thing, but what would he
said here of a farm of from four, five TO
six hundred acres with Il yearly shipment
of from 300 to 500 head of young stock,
and a weekly average OF hundreds of
pounds Of butter, and every othe. bro
duct in proportion. Certainly such an
enterprising establishment in our midst
would cause many OF our most advanced
farmers to open wide their eyes. Yet
such a case is in no wise uncommon III
the very near West. Indeed upon tie
fertile prairie Lands Of Indiana and Him

are more the rule than the exception.

Farm MAJ ion county, Indiana, within
Indianapolis.
We will noc undertake to give an ex-
tended description OF this model place,
suffice it to say. 1t is a model of its
kind, and is managed by Mr. George
jackson, a brother-in-law to Mrs. Ell
mund Brown of this town, assisted by
Mr.. Samuel McIntire a son of the late
Samuel Mclntire of this town. and VIM.
son of Mr.. Z. Brown, Of Elkton, and is
one of the most successful stock farms in
that State. But what we started ont to
write of was two remarkable animals
now on this farm, viz: IIazens BeSs a
jersey cow, who under official test pro
duced in November last twcnty-lour
pounds and eleven ounces OF butter per
week, and "Coburns Prize" Jersey
Bull, only living son of Mamie Colburp:
one of the most remarkable cows of her
time, or i'll fact any other time. When
only a little over Il year Old, her record
was 10 pounds 1 ounces Of butter per
week, and she increased regularly up to
the time Of her death in October 1852.
The two animals above mentioned are
now offered for sale, as they have on the
farm multitude of their progeny some
OF them equal to the parent stock, and
an unusual opportunity is afforded to
any stockman who desles to improve

Sale OF the Roads.

The sale of the public roads will begin
advertisement elsewhere in this paper.
[ nder the new law Snpervisoring will
very materially differ from what it has
been in the past, that is, if the law is
strictly enforced, which we believe will
done. The duties that will be eXpected
of purchasers Of roads may be found fully
and clearly set forth in the new Iaw. and
no one need 90 into the business blindly.
The roads Of the county are in very bad
condition lust now. but it is the intention
of the commissioners to remedy this as
soon as possible. In selling the roads
they will act il liberal spirit, allowing
a fair price foI the work to be done. but
they will require each purchaser to come
fully up to his contract. The pIice paid
for the first year will be based upon the
present condition Of the road. The prob
able cost of putting it in good order will
be estimated. aud theu an estimate Of the
probable cost per year for keeping it il
repair will be made The first estimate
will Se the price they vii ALLOW for the
first and the sccoud 70! succeeding years
The roads have been laid off in small sec
tons, and each purchaser Of d section ci
road must reside in the road district il
which the road is located This will pnt
a stop to the custom that has prevailed
to some extent, that is, Of one man buy
ing up "A number of roads scattered
through the county. frequently some u
them being 50 far from their places O
residence that they but seldom see then
1t will at the same time enable farmers
to purchase the sections of road adiacen
to their lands at fair price, enough t,
keep them in order, and at the same tim,
allow them a fair profit on the work
We are in hopes that our farmers vii
take hold OF this thing. They woul,
have then double interest il the road
the profit of the work and the comfort
in fact the necessity of having good road
for their teams to travel over.

consisting of reading, defamation. rrrita-
