Having given the dark side of local affairs
will change to a more pleasing subject. There
will be a wedding shOrtly-a very popular
young man, living below Middletown, is going
to marry one of the incest girls-the pride OF
Pennsylvania and Maryland. Not that we
shall have fewer Millers but rather more Coop
ers Pennsylvania offered her diamond ring
| if she would not receive company until she was
eighteen. but Love conquered in the end.
Since, Messrs. Editors, you are feeling so good
over your pumpkin-pie as to almost give your
self away, may your shadow never grow less
but like the circulation of THE UNION, spread
out creating "a feast of reason and flow OF
soul" in both large and-small audiences. U.
Mr.. G. o. Wilson, proprietor of Riverbank
Stock Farm near Loeb Raven, lately took a
trip to Pawling, New York, to inspect the noted
Holstein-Freisan herd of Hon. j. b. butcher
& Son. Having read of the wonderful butter
record of De Ko1 I'd, he was particularly anxious
to see that great COW. In one day this COW
produced lbs. 81 ozs. of marketable butter,
and SO lbs ozs. in seven days, at the age OF
years, three months after dropping a calf.
While at Pawling Mr. Wilson bought two
heifer calves out of select DANES with large
butter records, sired by a son of De Kol I'd Ode
Kol I'd Prince and left them there until old
enough to be bred to Pieterje I'd Koningn, a
son of Pieterie I'd. This COW has one-year
milk record of 80, 318 lbs, or 81 hogsheads and
IS quarts, 297 lbs. more milk than ever pro-
duced by any cow in one year. Messrs. butcher
& Son paid 81 500 for Pieterje I'd Koningin
when he was six weeks old. His service fee is
$3.50 This is the strongest combination OF
butter and milk producers among the Holsteln-
Freisians. Mr.. Wilson is sparing no expense
in keeping up his herd of pure Holsteins and
these late additions are unsurpassed IN point OIL
breeding.
Will Come Back to Baltimore County
We have received the following letter dated
Salem, Va. December 24th, 1890:
Editors Baltimore County Union-Dedr Strs
Salem is beautifully situated between the
Blue Ridge and Allegany mountains and the
future of the place is no doubt assured II the
industries to be operated here are successfully
carried out The town is full of doctors and
real estate agents, but a physician could nc
| doubt build up good practice IN course OF
time There are negroes here in immense
numbers, but it is impossible to secure them
to do any kind of household work. There,
fore it is my intention to return to my old
, home in tie 9th district of Baltimore county
at an early day. More anon.
