THE MESSENGER.
A Vicious System.

The method Of farm management, in
this parish. is radically defective The
results prove it. Instead of making the
two ends meet, We see the ends from year
TO year. getting further apart And one
of the direct causes that tends to this
deplOrable state of affairs is the vicious
credit system. Fully two thirds of the
farmers before single furrOw is turned
in the field are in consultation with the
local merchant, arranging for the
amount of advances the latter is willing,
at crushing price, to grant on future
crop. A lien is then given on every
thing the poor farmer has. or may pos
sess. including the coming crop. And
then begins the working of the credit
system. All economy is thrown to the
dogs-nOt satisfied with only the neces-
saries of life. he buys anything. and
everything simply because he has the
power to buy. In the ecourse of time he
grows Indifferent as to his obligations.
He, of course, works as little as possible
or at least in discouraging manner. At
the end of the season, before his crop is
even harvested, the merchant is ready to
take in everything. Frequently the ac-
count is disputed, suit is brought and
then not even a ear of corn is left in the
crib. The same farce is played over and
over as long as he can obtain credit !;
and, il he is the owner of patch of land
he is eventually turned out in the wide
world, without thing to his name. save
a wife and six miserable babes. Such
a system should be speedily eliminated.

An Outrage.

When the people of this tOnw and
neighborhOod, willingly and cheerfully
subscribed means 10 induce the building
of the branch railroad with its terminus
here, they labOred under the impression
that some slight regard would be paid
for their convenience. They recognized
the fact, through and quick transpor-
tation would be beneficial to the indus
tries of the town, and would contribute
h facilitate travel to and fro. Hence,
they were not slow in their endeavors to
secure the benefits they believed would
accrue to them. How did the railroad
authorities meet this spirit? By an ap-
parent studied effort to inconvenience
the travelling public. Passengers ia
king the train here to meet the west
bound train are compelled to lay over at
Cade's Station fully three hours place
that offers but slight attraction Un-
dOubtedly this long wait works to the
Getriment of this town, for it will
scarcely be denied, that but for this
state of things, many from the country
would take this route. The ground OF
complaint should be removed. Let the
people of this town place their grievan-
ces before the railroad authorities, and
We hope. and believe. they will be made
to disappear.

Near Burke's Station, last Tuesday
