While unprecedented efforts have been used iu the preperations for the “ Great Centen nial Anniversary ’’ nt Philadelphia, it occurs to ns that there has been one great neglect or oversight.

This should tench a lesson to all who neglect the seeming trifles of a farnt. Everything should be utilized. Merchants should buy every product of the farm, whether there is money in it or not; the goods which they generally give in exchango will pay profit enough.
