From the Baltimore San:
The Western Maryland Railroad Company,
in arranging their spring and summer sched-
ule, it is understood, will pay attention to the
accommodation and development of the milk
traffic in hitherto new territory. The milk
trains which have been run from Union
Bridge, 45 miles from Baltimore, have large
business, ranging from 5000 to 1900 gallons
day. It is proposed to start these trains
from Mechanicstown, SO miles from Balti-
more. The Frederick Division of the Penn
sylvania Railroad intends to put on milk trains
to traverse the country between Frederick,
Md, and Littlestown, Pa. These trains will
meet the early morning milk train OF the
Western Maryland at the junction of these
roads, and the milk will be delivered in Bal
timore by A. M. A milk train was tried on
the Frederick Division several years ago.
but did not do we'll Now, however, there is
a loud call for it among the farmers, who
cannot raise grain at profit with the ruling
prices, and they are turning their attention
to dairying and more diversified farming than
heretofore. The farmers guarantee from
1900 to 1000 gallons of milk day, from the
first starting of the train. The farmers in the
Cumberland Valley of Pennsylvania are also
asking for facilities from the Western Mary
land for sending milk to Baltimore, and
President Hood will look into the matter.
An early train leaves Shippensburg, Cham
bersburg, and other stations for Baltimore,
and it is feasible to have milk sent from the
Cumberland Valley to this city early enough
to meet The demands of the trade. The train
could not be started early enough to connect
with the milk train from Mechanicstown, but
it would reach Baltimore in ample time.
That region is well adapted to dairying, which
is constantly growing in Importance. Springs
and streams abound, and the soil is adapted
to grazing. Baltimore consumers will reap
an advantage in getting an additional supply
of pure, rich milk.

buried on Wednesday in the cemetery in Man

We do not recollect ever having seen a
more gloomy prospect for wheat than we have
at present. Our farmers are quite dlscour-
aged, and we frequently hear the question
asked what will become of the farmer, and
how can the Atlantic States compete with the
West? We do not regard the solution OF
these problems as being at all difficult.
Why should not the farmer prosper when
ssearth and the fullness thereof are his and
the cattle upon thousand hills" There is
a cause for every effect and there are many
causes for the present gloomy agricultural
prospect in those sections, where artificial
fertilizers are used. We believe. with proper
management and culture in the aforesaid Sec
tions the present average yield of crops can
be grown with half the present cost.
This may be regarded as statement made
at random, but we feel prepared to verify the
assertion and challenge successful controyer-
ton of the fact.
II our farmers would cultivate less land
in proper manner and turn their atten-
ton more to raising stock, they could save
half their present fertilizer bills, and with the
use of lime and stable manure make far
more speedy and permanent improvement IN
their lands. Nature has ordained that the
exeretions of every animal shall reproduce its
food We emphasize this statement. believ-
ing we are right IF every straw and blade of
grass were passed through the animal and the
offssl properly applyed it would make more
improvement than if applyed in any other
form; therefore if our farmers would raise more
stock and feed more produce on their farms
they would find it to their interest. We would
like to say more upon this subject, but for
want Of time and space will simply say, more
stock, more stable manure, more lime, less
fertilizer, and less freight constitute the ele-
ments of the farmers in the Atlantic States.
We are informed that christian benevolence

pie in this district. Ifthey inject stranger

1t seems that the political ball has been put
in motion at the Hub with, as we believe,
unintentional abruptness, but nevertheless we
feel that it is but due to our candidates for
nomination to say, that however strong their
aspiration or anxious their desire they have
been quite unobtrusive in presenting their
manifest claims, and we can not think there
was any unkind reflection intended, though
the expression used was in lawful bad"
taste. Some are of opinion that the Hub
is all right, but needs respokiDg all round, and
that the new spoke inserted on the Eldersburg
side is not an lawful bad'' fit and may serve
to check some of that loud creaking and en-
able us to hear the mellow undulations OF that
soul inspiring anthem ''here is rest for the
