Who Says Farming Does
Not Pay In Henry
County?
Henry County Lands as Good as
Amy Laying Out Doors
Good Crops and Fair Prices Have GiV-
en- Farming a Boom.

How often one hears the expression
There's no money in farming This
may be true of some localities, but il
is far from being so as regards Henry
county, where abundant crops are al
most sure to be raised every year.
There may he a partial failure of
crops in Henry county, but never a
total failure.
Contrast this condition with the al
most general condition of the western
farmer at the present time. 1t is safe
to say there is not an acre of ground
in all the Western territory that will
or can produce such crops as are
gathered in Henry county from year
to year.
True, land is dearer here than in
the west, but even at the difference
in price of land, it is more profitable
to farm in Henry county than it is in
the west, because here crops are more
certain and profitable market is as
sured, two very important factors
which are not guaranteed in the
west.
These being facts, then how foolish
it is for farmers who are comfortably
situated in Henry county, and Others
seeking homes, to pick up and go to
the far west with hope of bettering
their condition. Ten to one they miss
it, and will often wish themselves
back again in the home they have
left in the east Let good enough
alone, by holding on to your homes
in Henry county, one of the best ag
ricultural counties in the State o
Ohio, or in the country, for that mat
ter.
Does farming pay in Henry
count" Well, let us see, and we will
take as a text the experience of {
farmer living in Sec. 1, Washington
township, Mr.. Link Strayer, who ha'
had his farm of 40 acres in corn fol
the past two years, and who has KEEP
an accurate account of the returns i
has brought him. Two years ago he
purchased his 40 acre tract for the
sum of 81, ,025, paying the cash for it
The first year. he sold corn to the
amount of 5000, and the second year
which is this season, he marketed and
sold his corn crop to the amount Of
$1,000 27, an average of $25.05 pei
acre, which would represent al
average of about rs bushels of corn
to the acre at the price paid this year
Mr.. Strayer planted the Leaning
corn, and sold his crop to b. F. Kerr,
of Grand Rapids, 0. The experience
of Mr. Strayer is that of hundreds of
other farmers in Henry county, and
it goes to show that farming does pay
in this county. If it does not pay
some, it may possibly be their own
fault and not the fault of the land.
This year crops have been remark
ably good in Henry county-not q
failure in any thing. Some of the
best wheat ever raised in the county
was raised this year, and the corr
crop is simply immense. which so fal
has commanded good prices-the
price lowering around sec per hun
dred weight. Wheat was and is low
but considering the amount of bush
els raised to the acre, was not at all 8
bad crop.
The farmers of Henry county should
be happy and thankful, when they
compare their condition with theil
brothers in the west, many of whom
are almost at the door of starvation

The GOLD RESERVE.

The following pertinent remarks,
regarding the gold reserve in the ma
tional treasury, we find in that sterl-
ing Democratic sheet, the Columbus
call. They are so appropriate to the
moment in our history, that we be
lieve every citizen should read them,
especially every Democrat:
The immense Withdrawals of gold
from the United States Treasury dur
ing the past week for private hoard
ing by bankers and for shipment to
Europe ought to be. and certainly
must be, suggestive to Secretary Car
lise and the Administration.
1t is certainly apparent to all that
the gold bugs of Wall street are simp-
ly playing a game of see saw to com
pei the issue of government bonds to
maintain a gold reserve, not to pro-
tect the public credit, but to serve
the sinister purpose of a gang of spec
ulative robbers who are preying up
on the labor and industry of the
country.
We have no patience with the rob
bers, or with the policy under which
they are operating, and we shall not
mince words in speaking of them.
The policy of opening the United
States Treasury to these selfish rob
bers was inaugurated by John Sher-
man and given further Endorsement
by Charles. Foster, two Republican
Secretaries of the Treasury. In the
absence of legal requirement, and in
defiance of common sense, they es-
tablished the policy of paying out, or
redeeming in gold, all coins notes,
and silver certificates, thus making
the treasury an easy prey of resident
and foreign gold spetulators and gov
ernment bond hunters.
The continuance of that foolish and
vicious policy has been the worst
blunder of Clevelands administration.
Wall street knows that all that is
necessary to force an issue of bonds
is to deplete the gold reserve in the
treasury. 1t is now working its de-
spicable game of see saw to force
another issue.
And yet their game can be blocked
in single day by resembling the Re
publican policy which is allowed to
obtain in the Treasury Department.
All that is necessary to do is to re-
deem the coin notes of the Govern
ment in coin-gold and silver alike,
and in such relative proportions as
the department may determine. To
do this would be to act within the
letter and spirit of the law To con-
tinue the present policy is to act in
defiance of the law and in the interest
of gang of selfish, unpatriotic and
reasonable conspirators, whose sole
ambition is to rob the community,
through the United States Treasury.
If the coin notes of the Govern
ment, however, are to be redeemed
in gold, common prudence and COM
mon sense would dictate that they be
destroyed as fast as redeemed, in
stead of being reissued after re- demp-
tion. If destroyed as fast as redeem
ed, it would be easy to calculate when
the treasury would cease to be the
prey of gold bug sharpers.
The moment the Sherman-Foster
Republican policy is abandoned by
Secretary Carlisle, the thievery will
stop and a great majority of the vo-
ters of the country will be found mus
tering under the Democratic banner.

 Following the speeches MT. Bayard he'd a reception on the stage that con- tinued for over an hour.
