Printers to the Front.

More printers are in the House of
Representatives than members of any
other single occupation or profession,
except the law. Amos Cummings, of
New York, was tramp printer, and
says he has set type in every State in
the Union. Senator Plumb was first
a printer, then an editor, and finally
a banker. Gallinger, of New Hamp-
shire, was printer, but afterwards
studied medicine. Farquhar, of
New York, is not only printer, but
was once President of the U. S. Typo
graphical Union. "Tim" Campbell
was a compositor on the New York
Herald when he was elected to the
New York Legislature. O'Donnell,
of Michigan, learned the printing
business and has always kept at it.
Dingley, of Maine; Foran, of Ohio;
Nicoll, of North Carolina; Wickham,
Of Ohio; Hurd, of Wisconsin; Nost,
of Virginia, were all printers.

With the exception of eggs there is
but little change to note in the pro

The continued mild weather has
given the hens fine opportunity to
spread themselves and consequently
the production has been unusually
large this fall and winter. Prices
have continued to weaken and
decline until they are dull at Zoe. at
Nashville and propOrtionally low in
other markets. The supply is now 50
low and Springtime so near we can
hardly expect much improvement
now.
Dried fruit is very quiet with no

Poultry dull and in light demand.

Public Library.

We have been working for several
years to make Public Library and
reading room for the citizens of Me-
Minnville, and have now succeeded
in getting splendid start in this di-
rectiOn. We have about two thou
sand valuable books and are adding
to this number every day. We have
rented a suitable room, one we'll
adapted to the purpose, and havesuc-
ceeded in getting quite a number of
subscribers to the Library. There is
nothing that could be started which
would be of more advantage to the
rising generation, to the young ladies
and gentlemen, to the old people,
than well selected library and read
ing room. We want to carpet the
room, seat it with comfortable chairs,
light it with elecric lights, and make
it as attractive as it can possibly be
made. We want to establish series
of lectures for the intellectual enter
tainment of the community.
Now with these statements of facts
it remains with the intelligent read
ing people of this community to say
whether this enterprise shall be
pushed on to full success and to the
realization of the fond hopes of those
who have the library at heart. Now
Is the time to subscribe. We want
all the prominent magazines and pc
riodicals, both domestic and foreign,
that can be obtained, and we wish to
commence taking them with the
January, 1899, numbers. We wish
to purchase large number of stan
dard books of history, biography, fic.
ton, etc. This will require money
and we must have it in order to make
this the success that we are deter.
mined TO make of it.
Now we ask of the community tC
subscribe at once, so that the library
can be opened. We know that YOU
are all in favor of it, and will give
your moral support, but we want your
subscription, which is only four dol
lars a year. Any first class magazine
will cost you this. The library vii
give the advantage of from thirty t
fifty monthly and weekly periodicals
which will not only be literary, bu
scientific, religious, mechanical, etc.
and will also give you the advantage
of all the books in the library, and ;
comfortable place to read. The socia
feature alone is worth the money.
The subscribers are now being call
ed upon to pay their first installmen
of one dollar. They will please pa!
promptly so as to enable us to go for
ward with this work.
We will have a meeting of all tn
members on Thursday, the oath O
: January, at I O'Clock, p. NJ, at whicl
! time we will organize by electinl
officers of the association. All VIII
have an interest in the enterprise ar

got the constable and crowd Of
