Five Thousand Dollars a Day for Grain at Remington.

It is generally conceded that there has never been such a rush of corn into Remington as there was during JLblsjweek up jo^last night, and if the weather is Yavbrable'llieftveTage AVltt, no doubt, be kept up for many days to come. Last night a reporter was sejit to interview the grain men and find out the number of loads tbut had come in since Monday morning, lie brought the following astonishing ieport: In four days Mr. O. W. Church had received 1,101 loads, averaging 35 bushels to the load, making a grand total of 38,545 bushels, which, at 30 cents a bushel, represents $11,560 paid out; an average of nearly $3,000 a day. Next, O. B. Mclntire was visited, who reported 700 loads, averaged at 35 bushels, making 24,000 bushels, showing a sum paid out of $7,200. Next and lust, J. S. Irwin, who has been running one day, reported 121 loads of shelled corn, averaging 40 bushels, or 5,000 in round numbers, of the value of $1,500. This makes a grand total of 1,922 loads, or 08,000 bushels takeu in in four days, representing a Value in round numbers of $20,000. Allowing 400 bushels to the car, which is tire average, it will take 170 cars to get it to market, or 42 cars a day to take it away as fast as it comes in.— Remington Times.
