The season just closed was the larg-
est ever had at John W. Rockers
pork factory. During the season they
cut 100000 pounds of pork. This
means that the proprietor paid the
farmers for pork upwards of $3.50, 900,
besides wages paid the employees,
which makes the factory one of our
towns important industries. They
turned out 1858 more pounds of sau-
sage and 35, 600 more pounds OF scrap

177e. after Washington had crossed
the Delaware and what was then left
of the Revolutionary host lowered In
a starving and beggardly condition at
Valley Forge there appeared the great
Inspector General Of the Revolution,
the dIscplinarian anu drill master who
transformed that helpless and hope
less crowd into : nghting army, en-
abllng it soon after to win the battles
Of Princeton and Trenton, the man
end soldier who has truly and deser-
ysdly been called the right arm of
' ashington, and who, every UNI
biased historian of today admits,
saved the Revolution at its most crlti-
cal period-Baron Friedrich Wilhelm
Won Steuben. For six years after the
close of the war Steuben had 10 fight
congress for material recognition of
his services, and not until now, more
than century after his death, has
the sense of the nations gratitude
been sufficiently aroused to honor his
memory by the erection OF a Steuben
statue at Valley torge.
