-1869 was not 4 good crop year,

amount due. We have been hard
put to it to run the paper w being
indulgent to so many, an - we
greatly need the none Il iust

The RObCSOnian says that the
Fayetteville canning factory is run
ming constantly. Apples and toma'
toes are being canned. The products
} of last years operation have beer
sold, and orders are coming in con.
stantiy. The goods haye taken well
wherever introduced, and SO il might
have been with the Samson canning
factory, if our people would have
taken hold Of it a year ago, and so i
might be in the future if they would
take hold of it now. We mus
save and utilize our products Or be-
poorer than we coHld be. We mus
2 have more industries. We mus
, create wealth or not have it.
