LOCAL IT E m 8.

';WEsT ENp,' village adjoining this city,
and separated from the Corporation limits BY
Hoofs run, is very old place. 1t extends
from Hooff's Run to the first Toll gate, having
the Little River Turnpike as its principal
street. AS Alexandria, in the early days, from
1898 to 1910, grew and aourished, SO did West
End increase. Since the last mentioned date,
it has altered very little in appearance though
some new houses have taken the place Of old
ones, and several we'll built and handsome resi-
dences have been erected in the last twelve or
fifteen years. Being adjacent to town, and
situated on run, the butchers who supplied
the market, had their slaughter houses in the
southern end OF tho village, where most Of them
are situated. Formerly the drovers bringing their
cattle to market, stopped here, and sold their
beeves. sheep and hogs, on the hoof. MI
Catts's Tavern is an old institution, the elder
Mr.. Cats having kept it for many years--and
his good fare and accommodations we're we'll
known all through the adjacent country, 1t IS
still we'll kept by his son. Formerly the first
toll gate on the Turnpike was in the centre Of
the village, but it was afterwards moved high
er up. The country around is divided into
lots, highly cultivated by industrious and thirty
ing citizens Shutters Hill dominates" on one
side, and Cameron Run flows gently on the
other 10 1908 when the yellow fever prevailed
in Alexandria, many Of the citizens built houses
and cottages, on the heights beyond West End
(then considered long distance out of town, J
fearing visitations Of the pestllence-a fear for
tunately groundoss-(we believe there has
been but one visit of yellow fever snce-in 1922
or 3-or thereabouts) land these residences,
beautifully situated, are still kept up, and the
adjacent grounds improved by their owners
Cameron Mills owned by Roberts & Hunt are
at the fsrtherest end of West End, and the
Alexandria Water Works. and Reservoir, lie
within tie limits of the village So that West
End is worthy of a local notice, not only for
its good people, and good citizens, but for
other things that it contains. We have heard
old people say, that they remembered when
West End, was, in one sense, "a shipping
port''-for that they have seen fiat bottomed
boat come up Hooffs run to the Stone Bridge,
land oysters there, and take on board return
cargo. "Ichabod' may be now written on what
is left of the old bridge-the arch of which is
entire and solid-and West End must be con-
tent to have Alexandria for its 'shipping
port. .....

Noisy ARRESTS. 1t is suggested to the
night watch that they adopt and put into exc
cution some plan by which to prevent arrested
parties on their way to the watch house, from
alarming and annoying the residents of the
streets, along which they pass, by their cries
and other improper behavior. The whole north
eastern section of the city was thrown into
co,nmotiou late last night, by the shricks and
screams of woman in charge of the watch,
which might have been preyentedby the april
cation of q handkerchief.

RECEIPTS OF GRAIN-It will be seen by ret
erence to the receipts Of produce By railroad, IN
our commercial column, that nearly twenty,
eight thousand bushels Of grain were received
here last week over the Orange, Alexandria
and Manassas, and Alexandria, Loudoun and
Hampshire Railroads. When it is taken into
consideration that this is seed time with the
farmers, and that comparatively little grain is
being sent to market, this exhibit is most graf
flying, and clearly indicates the growing trade
of our good old town. Besides the grain
brought here by rail there were large receipts
by river. Th9re are few better grain markets
in the country than Alexandria, and the enter
prise and spirit Of her merchants entitlc them
to liberal patronage from the farmers and
country merchants.

Gentlemen: The Redonda Guano that We

tatoes and buckwheat. We sowed one, field Of
wheat broadcast about 400 pounds To the acre,
in Montgomery county, and narrowed It IN,
which looks we'll. ON the same farm, III this
county, we put in field Of buckwhcat, WHICH
was Us good as ever grew on land about 2OJ
pounds TO the acre oftno Bedonda, was applied.
The potatoe: look we'll and the RcdondH has
made us as good crops as some Of the ,tertlLI-ers
that cost US double the price tao Rcdond& did.
We sowed field of wheat last tal! on our
farm in Howard county, and put i. in with p
drill we put about 300 pounds Of Kedonda 20
the acre. This wheat looks rather better than
the wheat on the Montgomery farm, both put
in the same week; we are so well pleased Win
it, that We used four tons this spring on corn,
oats and potatoes, and the crops look we'll. We
used it in our garden, and we think we have one
