Of course a good margin will always have to be given for Ihu supplies furnished from the I'arms as the farmers may happen to have a surplus, but with all this there appears to be ample room for at least one good garden. Mr. Buckner is preparing for this on the largest scale perhaps of any, while several others arc making beginning. There is a large demand here and one that is permanent.

is not only for garden truck but for everything than can he raised on a small piece of laud. All kinds of small fruits grow well and abundantly here and there is no more reason why the dollars spent for these things should be sent abroad than that milk should be shipped in to supply the local demand. Honey should also be produced at lome. That it can be admits of no loubt since neighboring towns have ilaced the industry beyoud the experimental stage. With the railroad facilities we have, every inducement is open for the production of honey upon i large scale and the certainty of a market, if not in Corrt'clioiiville, at points within an hour's ride- Correctionville should have a sery.

Thousands of dollars are sent lo outside points for ornamental trees, shrubbery, that could be grown licre equally as well and the money would he spent at home. A great deal of help would be employed, especially if fruit growing were combined with the nursery business. The NKWS regards this as one of the most important thiugs to be secured and one which should be secured at once. An iron lathe, plauer and drilling outfit would be a valuable addition to some blacksmith shop and after a while could doubtless be depended up- OR for business of its own. It would be more of an accommodation to farmers, who are using more and more machinery each year, than would appear on first thought.

Many pieces of machinery that are now thrown away could be made as good as new for the money that is now paid for express on repairs aloue to say nothing of the high price the manufacturers charge for the eitras. Every year machinery men have a lanre portion of their time taken up with this repair business which is always troublesome and unsatisfactory. Those farmers who run steam threshers would doubly appreciate such an opportunity to save time and money- It would be a good thing if some carpenter shop had a good wood lathe in connection, something fixed to do large variety of order work. doubt a fair amount of slock work could be secured. The brick business is no experiment The brick buildings now standing 11 Correclionville are a guarantee of the fact that the best of brick can be made from the clay afforded here.

And one man has a corner on the article. It has been tested when dug from the bottom land and from the bluffs, and is so widely and plentifully distributee that the aupply is inexhaustible. Although no tests have been made of the clay in Ironwood grove, it has been ap proved by those who know something about brick. Perhaps the troublesome question of a road through that much- debated ground will be solved in the next decade by making the hill into brick and thus removing the causn of the change recently made. In this industry as in others the facilities for distribution is an important factor and are all that could be desired.

The canning factory has become considerable of a chestnut in aspiring western towns, yet nowhere are there greater inducements than in Correc- tiouville. Of the goods usually canned all are produced here now and special contract farming would be easy. If some one who is acquainted with the business and desires a location would come and look over the ground he could not but be thoroughly convinced. In this connection the NEWS wishes to say that it is not in favor of a local stock company to establish such things for the reason that local companies are usually failures and seldom are willing to put up the money, or be patient if things don't go right. It prefers a subscription or a bonus, to be paid annually for term of Tears to some firm who understand the business, to a local organization.

Generally speaking, if the prospects are not such as to be approved by those wko are posted, the amateur will do well to slay out and the enterprising citizen may as well save his money. We have no doubt a liberal donation in some way or olhci be made a canning factory and that it would be a paying institution if well managed. Water works. Here is the best field we know of for a local company to occupy and in which it can profitably expend its cash and enthusiasm. The town is going to have water works soon in some way and if not by taxation or bonding then how? The public is willing, we judge, to pay a good interest upon the investment.

A small amount of work ought to find the money. There was a of ball Tuesday between the married and single men at the fair ground in which the former pounded out forty-one runs and the utter thirteen. One week from tomorrow the Pierson and Gushing clubs will be the guests of the base ballists here and there will no doubt be several games of ball during the day. Be sum and attend the concert given by the Choral club on Friday evening. May 17, at tho M.

Admission 15 cents, children 10 cents. Let everybody turn out. The following are the views of the editor of the Smithland Exponent upon national finance: "There is plenty of property in this county, but there is a scarcity of currency.

As money is a creature of congress, we think congress should see to it that there is enough in circulation to do business with. The currency at this time could stand a lit- ision." Mr. and Mrs. H'm. Conklin celebrated their silver wtnldirig last evening.

ADAMS. 51 Executor. The Railroad Crossing. For some time the people east and south of town have united with town people in asking the board of supervisors to compel the C. X-W.

railway company to make and maintain a crossing at the Cornell farm a mile east of town. The road used at present crosses the railway track twice in short distance, the last time just at the termination of a cut where it is impossible to tell whether a traiu is coming or not. The cut being made iu curve adds to the danger of the place. Some time ago the board was petitioned to straighten the road, placing it upon straight lines and crossing the track at a point in the cut where trains could be seen for some time on either side and where the trains could easily pass under the roadway. We are informed that the railroad company don't think it ban to build the crossing or keep a flagman at the present oue.

Those who use the road are properly anxious about the matter because there has been a number of close escapes from accidents at the crossing. Our attention has been called by D. II. Harris to a recent decision of the Iowa railway commissioners upon a similar case and published in our news columns only a month ago. Jt is reported as follows and gecms conclusive as to this case: ''Tin: railroad commissioners have just decided a case which may be taken as a precedent in the matter of maintaining crossings at public highways.

The board of supervisors of Marshall county some time ago straightened a public road which crossed the Northwestern railroad track. The change in the road changed the place of its crossing the track, and the supervisors asked the railroad to change its crossing to conespond. The railroad refused, maintaining that the supervisors could not compel them to change an established crossing every time they chose lo change the direction of the road. On appeal the road questioned the right of the commissioners to direct the building of crossings, but they held-they are given the power to be exercised public interests seem to require it; and 90 they sustain the supervisors and the crossing must be changed.
