IN SOMERSET.
Farms are Being Improved and There
Is More Life Than Heretofore.

BY a recent investigation through
Somerset county it has been found
that during the last five years 30
farms have been sold to persons from
other states. The farmers have made
considerable progress in diversified
farming and in some parts of the
county sweet corn is coming to be a
great factor in the success of the
farms. In the last two years there
has been quite a boom in the sheep
industry. There has been falling
off in the hay crop for the last few
years up until last year. Dairying
business has been on the wane for
the last few months. The last three
years there has been a scarcity in the
apple crop. The largest number Of
barrels raised by any one man in the
county in that time was by S. v.
Beale, living three miles from Show
hogan. One year he raised $50 bar
rels of apples, receiving $2145 for
them. There is very little small
fruit raised in the county, but there
seems to be considerable interest
shown among a great many farmers
in strawberry raising. One of the
largest growers is Charles Holbrook
of Starks. He has about an acre
each year There are several farm
ers it has been found who in the last
few years raised about loo bushels.
The most universal industry among
Somerset county farmers is poultry
raising
