DR., d. w. Border has had cata-
logue and price list of his Mendenall
Nursery stock printed, and farmers
desiring information in regard to
fruit trees and fruit raising should
call on or address this nursery at
Kearneysville, w. Var 1t is a home
enterprise and as we'll managed and
understood as the foreign nurseries.
One strong point in favor of the
home nursery is, that the climate and
soil here are studied, and such varie-
ties raised as thrive best. Berkeley
and adjoining counties will before
many years be great fruit country,
already thousands of trees are being
planted. There is room and demand
in this section for an extensive nur-
sery business, and our people should
give it their entire support. There
will also be found in this issue the adj
vertisement of Mr.. ID. III. Dodd, agent
for Mr.. joint. McKown's Apple Pie
Ridge Nurseries at Darkesville. We
can recommend Mr.. Dodd as relia.
BILE agent and his stock comes from
home nursery that has for years
supplied this state and Virginia and
always given satisfaction.

In naming the various applicants
for federal positions, THE HERALD,
few weeks ago, mentioned Messrs.
Riser and Clary in connection with
the North Mountain Post Office, being
under the impression that each one
was an applicant. We have since
been informed that Mr.. Clary is a
Democrat and in no way connected
with the Post Office, though his name
was thus reported to the detriment of
Mr.. Samuel Riser's chances, who is
an active Republican, an old soldier,
and a worthy citizen. We make this
correction in justice to Mr.. Riser, as
THE HERALD is a friend to every
Republican aspirant and would like
to see all successful if possible, and
all fairly treated.
