One objector to the railroad sub
scription says What good will it
do farmers? It won't make our
lands grow more wheat, or Craze
more cattle, or cause our hens TO lay
more eggs, or our COWS to give more
or richer milk and then the object
or looks wise, as much as to say,
"answer that if you can" But while
the railroad cannot help the lazy
man to grow more grain, raise more
cattle, produce more eggs, milk or
butter, it can bring TO his door bet
erprices for all these things, double
his profits by giving him home
market and help him more effective
ly than If it increased his products
without increasing his customers
and his prices Ten years ago one
market gardener made precarious
living selling vegetables to the PEG
pie of Morgantown, to-day dozen
men are making more money in this
business off of small pieces of well
cultivated land than before off of
whole farms Then one or two milk
men often over sold the market, now
dozen persons sell milk. cream and
even buttermilk regularly to their
town customers. A dozen butchers
furnish us fresh and cured meats
now where two scrambled for a liv-
ing ten years ago. Iron stores, gro
GERS, drygoods dealers, clothing
boots and shoes, furniture factories,
grain and flour and feed dealers and
all occupations abound. Paved
streets, water works, system of
sewers, natural gas, telephones and
all modern conveniences have multi
piled and come to rs. since the first
railroad was built through our Dis
trict Every added facility for do
ing business and drawing people to
us will increase our wealth and
prosperity. Give us more railroads
and we viii give more wages and
employment to our people.
