we visited last Tuesday the place where Mr. HILLIARD has been boring into the
earth for something, near Hematite. He
is a man who runs his business in his own way, pays for what he gets, keeps his
own counsel, and volunteers but little information to the public. He bored a depth of 421 feet with a diamond
drill, and struck a vein of water which flows 30 feet above the surface, and he
is now preparing to go 1000 feet deep.
What he is after is only a matter of conjecture; be he seems well
satisfied with his prospects, has taken an option on about 800 acres of land,
and every indication is that he is there for business.

There may be some things omitted which ought to be included, and it is
likely that a great many changes and amendments can be suggested, but all must
remember that there has been but little time in which to get it up, and it is
probably as nearly perfect as its worst critics would have made it if it had
been left to them with no more time to work on it. Make the fair a success this year, and a
larger and more satisfactory premium list can be assured for next year.

here to get a machine to thresh his wheat after his neighbor’s machine had
pulled out. Now I suppose there will be
a collision and wages will take a boom. I am informed that hen roosts suffer occasionally
in this vicinity. Dogs are in demand around here, to guard the crops, as rail

It is the intention of the
promoters of the Jefferson County Fair Association to make the institution a
permanent fixture of the county. Parties
are already at work raising stock sufficient to purchase the grounds, and have
secured an option at a reasonable price, and are succeeding very well in
raising the money. A successful fair
this year would clinch the thing and assure its permanency. Every good citizen of the county should
desire its success, and to assure it every citizen must do what he can for
it. If you can have something worth
showing, have it on exhibition at the fair; and if you have nothing to exhibit
attend and see what is exhibited. In the
meanwhile talk the matter up favorably with your neighbors and increase the
interest which all should have in it.
