FARMERS CLUB.

The Farmers Club met in the hall of
the new court house on Saturday last at
2 o'clock.
Henry Morgan, Treasurer, reported the
expense of the Farmers Institute which
closed January % to be $S240; total con-
tributions S62. .40-ShOwing adeficiency of
$50. Whereupon discussion arose as to
the propriety of discontinuing the Insti-
tute, or else attempt to raise funds to de-
fray expenses by charging a small admis-
sion fee. The collectors who tried to raise
funds to pay expenses by voluntary con-
tributions at the door on Friday and Sat
urday afternoons said many gave literally
and cheerfully, while it seemed to effect
others much the same as extracting a
tooth when its roots are entangled among
the toe nails. The sessions of the Insti-
tute always abound in profitable instruc-
ton, and are entertaining The wonder
is that any persons have to be insisted
upon to contribute to defray the expense.
The subject for discussion being 1.-The
Cultivation and Utilization of Clover"
was opened by R. E. Giffen. He deems it
one of Gods best gifts to cultivators of
the soil, because of its power, both of top
and root, to gather plant food and place
it in reach of the following crops. Mr..
Giffen ably set forth the value of clover,
after which there was an informal talk
participated in by all present on the same
subject.
Subject for next meeting Farm En-
ployment for the Following Month";
John Watson to open.
Adjourned to meet on the second Sat
urday of March, at o'clock.

DEATH OF JUDGE WELSH.


Hon. John Welsh, whose death is an
nOunced elsewhere, was at one time an
influential and prominent citizen of this
county, residing at Glencoe. Shortly after
the close of the war, if we remember cor
rectly, he removed to LaClede, Mo-, where
he has since resided.
Judge Welsh was one of the Associate
Judges of the Common Pleas at the time
the present Constitution went into Ope-
ration. Associated with him were Judges
McMasters and Carothers, and Hon. B. $.
Cowen was Presiding Judge On the Or
ganiZation of the Central Ohio Railroad
Company Judge Welsh was chosen a Di-
rector, and throughout the trying period
of its construction was one of the ablest
and closest counselOrs of President Sulli-
van. He was also one of the original pro-
prietors of Bellaire.
Until the dissolution of the party, Judge
Welsh was an active and influential Wing.
and afterward Republican. He was a
broad and brainy man, and his removal
from the county was greatly regretted
Judge Welsh was the oldest of five broth
ers-Hon. Isaac Welsh and DIR. David
Welsh, deceased, and Henry and Craw-
ford Welsh and Mrs. Alexander Arm
strong survive him-all descendants of
Crawford Welsh, one of the pioneers of
the county.
