consideration that In order to raise
anything whatever in the shape of
grain, the Jersey farmers must buy

kind, then 20 to % bushels of corn is
his average crop; from 6 to IL bushels
IS his average wheat crop, and oats
from nothing to 30 bushels. The
farmer here farms just like his great.

farmer is no good at his business.
The young generation makes good
clerks in New York, and that is what
they are doing, says Mr.. Trowbridge,
while the farm element, instead of
advancing, drifts backward.
Over 100000 New Jersey clerks cross
the North river into New York City
