 Who says farming does not pay when Mrs Lewis Burr has been running the farm, the past year, has marketed 600 barrels of onions at an average price of $2 50 per barrel netting the snug little sum of $500. We think it the largest crop of onions raised in this parish from any one farm. She also has fine pro- portion of other crops, corn, oats, rye, hay, potatoes, etc., also keeps about 20 cattle, 30 sheep, about 200 poultry of all kinds. Her success is largely due to the management of her hired man, George Perry, who has served her long and faithfully. She is fortunate in securing his. services for the coming year; George is man of energy and full of push. He shoves things right along. We know of no one who performs the amount of labor that he does for the returns he gets. Faithful George, may his shadow never grow less.- K. T. Burr.

 The will of the late Angeline Ogden is to be contested. She gave her whole es- tate, estimated at over $50,000, to child ren of her brother, Horace Ogden, and left her other six nephews and nieces out in the cold.
