An Automatic Axle LubricatOr.

The Brookhaven Machine Company
last week completed handsome and
highly polished model of the automatic
axle lubricator and protector. lately in.
vented and patented by Rev. J. A. Scar
borough. The invention is SO contrived
that it may be fastened to the axle of
a wagon, buggy or other vehicle, and a
small fountain of axle grease, tapped by
a tube, supplies the axle with the neces-
sary supply, inside the hub, whenever
the wheels are in motion. An important
part of the continuance is a hood that fits
over the hubs of wheels at the inside end
aud protects the hub and axle from sand
and mud falling from the wheels, thus
preventing such substances being carried
into the hubs, grinding out axle and box
ing, and greatly increasing the weight of
the draft, as is the case with the old ar
rangement so long in vogue.
Mr. Scarborough has received num-
Der of propositions from persons with
ample capital, who wish to engage in the
manufacture of the new invention, and
as soon as this can be arranged satisfac-
torily, the public will be supplied with
the various sizes, and people will begin
to wonder how they got along without
this simple and valuable Improvement so
long.

Town and Country.

| Some seem 10 think the town is OIL one
end Of the tccter board and the country
on the other; so that one can't go mp M
less the other goes down. A man who
thinks this is badly fooled. They arc
both on the same end. Neither one goes
up or down but the other goes with it.
The town is bound TO have the country
or do no business, and the country h
bound to have the town or have no mar
ket. Every farmer has small SURPRISES,
wool, fowl, eggs, butter, vegetables,
hay. corn If he has prosperous town,
he has ready sale at good prices, while II
the town is dead poor he has no market
at all. Yet some men do all they can to
pull their town down, aud then curse it
because they can't sell their produce
there. Every family added to the town
improves the market, especially If the
new man succeeds IN business 40 that he
can buy what he wants. If the farmer
fails to sell all he brings to town, it's not
because the people don't want il, bnt he
cause they have not got the money. SO
the only way on earth to improve the
market is to improve the town and i'm
prove the business of the town, so there
will be more people and more of them
able to buy what they want.
There are lots Of thieves and liars and
swindlers in town, but 1t is the same way
in the country. There are church mem.
bers in town that lie and dance, and
swear, and play cards, and get drunk,
but it is not much better in the country |
just not SO many TO the acre. Most of the
grown people in the town were raised in
the country. We are all human some of |
us are rs mean as old Nick none of MS
good TO brag of, and it is all foolishness
for the pot to call the kettle black and
raise racket. So let us pull together
now and at all times.-4. c. j., IN Oxford
