now industry for our farmers and they

to diversify tho crop is a benefit Tho

Looks 1 1 Ice Coal
Developments during tho past week
havo domoustrated moro fully that tho
coal oxcitomtut at Jackson had a mate
rial foundation The Riley and MoBrido
company nt a depth of about 70 feet
struck a three foot vein on last Friday
They had sunk n shaft 10 feet and strik
ing water drilled down to whero they
found coal They will uow put in a
pump aud continue tho sinking of tho
shaft until they ascertain the exact
value of their find Henry Carney
drilled 170 feet on his placo and while
tho machinery was not tho kind that
would give positive nssuranco if they
struck roil in any quantity yet they
think thoy went through a vein of con
siderable thickness G II Goodfellow
has put down a couple moro holes and
has found that tho vein first discovered
on his placo extends ns far as thoy havo
investigated Tho prospectH aro very
favorable that tho coal excitmeut at
Jackson will mntoriulize by developing
