COMPLETION OF THE SHENANDOAH VAL.
LEY RAILROAD TO wAYNESBORO.

COMPLETION OF THE SHENANDOAH VAL
LEY RAILROAD TO wAYNEsBoRo.
On Saturday last the immense con-
segment of two thousand Kegs of
railroad spikes passed through Sta.un-
ton. on its way from Pennsylvania to
Waynesboro, to be sent thence down the
line of the Shenandoah Valley Road. At
7:15 A. M. on Monday last. the last spike
vas driven at Luray and the road was
completed from Hagerstown. Md. to w ay-
nesboro. The road is nearly all ballasted.
and the freight and passenger trains will
be running regularly by the 18th of this
month. The scene at Luray, on Monday
morning, was very exciting. The hills
surrounding the town were crowded with
people many of whom had never seen a
locomotive until they saw the construction
train move in over the newly laid rails. A
band was playing in tho town and the
streets were full of people rejoicing over
the completion of the road.
A letter from Elkton station (Conrad's
Store) on the 5. V. R. R., to the Rich
mond estate" says:
Last fall Philadelphia gave an excursion
to the merchants of Page county, and en-
tertained them at their best hotels for
nearly a week, and 1t is understood that
like cOurtesieS will SOOI be extended to the
merchants of Augusta and Rockingham.
Philadelphia is sparing no effort to secure
the bulk of the Valley trade, so long held
ny Baltimore, through the medium of the
Shenandoah Valley railroad, now compile
ted from the Northern terminus to Way
Desbor0', on the Chesapeake & Ohio rail-
Way.
Last week President Huntington, of the
Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad. went West
and gave special attention to his interests
in the West. The results of his visit are
most important, and may be stated as fol-
lows: The Chesapeake Il Ohio will build a
line to Louisville from Lexington, passing
throu gh Versailles, the charter for which
was procured from the last Legislature
Il v i'll not be extended to Elizabethtown
Work will begin at once, and the road
will be finished in two years or possibly
eighteen months. MIR. Huntington has
secured control of the Elizabethtown and
| Paducah Road, and will at once build the
gap between Paducah and Memphis. It
is said that he has perfect understand
ing with the Louisville and Nashville
Company. SO that he will be allowed to
use the Cecilia branch. The Chesapeake
& Ohio Road will deliver freight for st..
Louis to the Louisville and Nashville
Road at Nortonville, and this will be COM
pensation for the unrestricted use Of the
Cecilia branch. By this arrangement the
| Chesapeake & Ohio ill'get into Memphis
and will have just as favorable arrange
merits with the Arkansas and Texas roads
as any other company.

The Boss Augusta Farmer.

AsDr. H. J. Glenn, the great California
farmer, is native of this county and was
a farmer here before he became famous
there, our farmers will be interested in
reading the following paragraph from a
Chicago paper:
The ranch of r. j. Glenn, in Colusa
county. CAL. is one Of the largest and
most noted in the State, and, perhaps.
presents the best illustration of extraOrdI-
nary farming along the Sacramento. On
being asked recently why he raised whea'
aloup, his reply was as follows: people
ask why raise wheat. The answer is
simple: 1t is the only crop that will bear
transportation; IL is the only crop rot
perishabe. [ must not raise On my land
what ruins me. but what is prof able
DR.. Glenn g ranch comprises about 10000
acres of land, and the number OF acres IN
wheat each year ranges between AZ, OOO and
$4,000 Reckoning an average of from ~
to 25 bushels to the ac,e, the aggregate
Crop each year amounts to something mo-
than LOCO, 900 bushels This enormous
amount of grain requires vast appliances
for planting and bringing it to market;
and the capital invested in machinery
, alone sums up a considerable fortune
| During the harvest time there are employ
| ed OH the entire rancn SOmo oUU mou. LII.
| Glenn is general-in-chief of his force. and
his ranch is divided. for convenience OF
operations, into nine smaller ranches-each
with a dwelling house, barns, blacksmith
shop and other necessary buildings. La
charge of these are seven toremen, under
whom sixteen blacksmlths, fourteen
carpenters, six engineers, six machinlsts,
| Eve commissarles and numerous cooks and
servants. The, common workmen are oil.
vided into gangs, and detailed where they
are needed. There are 100 gang plows; &c
herders, to which belong 1870 wagons; {
cleaners. 100 harrnws, Is. seeders, 6 tbresh'
ers. s engines Besides, there At many
smaller Instruments and vehicles, Whicn
cannot be classified. Cooperating with
their human brethren in the great labor
are 1000 work horses and mules, with
kinship of brood mares and younger STOCK
which has not yet achieved the dignity o.
labor. There are so dwelling-honses, Y
barns, IA blacksmith shops, and othel
structures sufficient to swell the aggregate
to 100. The machinery could mot be re,
placed for 1926, 900; the warehouses anc
mules are worth $1lO 900; and the brooo
mares and young stock $4,000. and the
buildings on the place $100,0O0 The rancf
is about twenty miles above the town Of
/ Colusa.

How IT PAYS TO TAKE A PAPER.-
The testimony of Bill Arp: Some
papers are not of much account as
TO appearance, but l never took one
that didu't pay me, in some way,
more than l paid for, it,. One time
ali old friend started q little paper
away down in southwestern Geor-
gia, and sent it to me, and | sub
scribeh just to encourage him, and
so, after awhile, it published notice
that an administrator had an order
to sell scyerahloLs of land at. public
outcry, and one of the lots was in
my county. So | inquired about the
lot, and wrote my friend to attend
The sale, and run it to fifty dollars.
He did SO, and bid off The lot for me
at thirty dollars, and sold il in a
month to the man it Joined for a
hundred, aud SO | made sixty-eight
dollars clear by taking, that paper.
My father told me that when he was
"a young man he saw a notice in 6
paper that school teatiler was wan
] ted away of in distant county, anc
/ he went there and got the situation
and little girl was sent to him, ane
after awhile she grew up might,
sweet and pretty, aud he fell in low
with her and married her. Now, i
he hadn't taken that paper, what d.
YOU reckon would have become o
