The Lancaster Ne,c Era cites an
instance of farmer in that county
who cultivated a patch of ground |
25xl0 yards in size in tobacco. He
carefully attended to the patch and |
sold the tobacco on it for S43.6O, or
ut the rate of very nearly 81, 900 au
acre. This should set the men who |
are planting wheat to thinking very
hard. Does anybody remember to
have heard of any farmer clearing
81, 900 from an acre of wheat
More than half u hundred auditors |
from the townships and boroughs in !
Schuylkill county assembled in Shen-
andoah the other day to discuss
what price they will charge the
county commissioners for their la
bors in connection with the election.
After much discussion it was decid- |
ed to charge Sl5 for each polling
place. Teams used for hauling
booths shall be extra. A resolution |
was adopted to ask all auditors in
the state to make a similar charge. |
