DINGMAN's FERRY

We really pity the idiot who firet
the buildings of Robinson Shepherd,
but it is doubtful if he has any con-
science or that remorse for the cruel |
act Of causing the sufferings and |
death of 1uinB animals will ever
trouble him. Such pirsou how
ever must always walk in fear n"f
trembling lest ne be found out ail
punishment be meted out to him
The Fence Club at a recent meet
ing proposed, and it was agreed to
by the members, aud all readers of
the PREss who own property on
which they i've, to occupy their
spare time this winter in getting
material ready to build what each
one would call model road to suit
the lay of the land, along the front
age Of their buildings or more if
possible. A few days in spring will
grade it properly and if this is car
ried out all will be benefited
Caesar was equally unfortunate
with Rambler in not finding his
stockings full We hope some PREss
readers Jared better.
The need Of the country is to have
well trained and educated help in
all departments of labor. Milford
has rooms where young men can go
and improve their minds and NOR.
ais, and girls too should have some
place where they might be educated
along lines which would fit them for
good positions, such as competent
cooks or housekeepers There is a
dearth of such help and young Ia
dies who are proficient could com
mand excellent salaries. This is
worth a trial and we hope to see
some effort made in that direction.
We read of the success of cream
erins but do we hear of those that
are failures
Some people down here were quite
hilarious over the remarks of Mr..
Schwarz at the institute, that next
to clover, turnlps made the best
green manure but after examining
theremnauts of the crops came to the
conclusion that the lecturer was
right. There are two varieties of
COW horn turnips and the species
that runs down in the ground is the
kind to plant for manure purposes.
John Reid, of Brooklyn, was here
recently looking after farm, but
