FARM NOTES

Sescral trials in recent years have
shown that the pine leaves, or needles,
as they are called, from our common
pine forests are valuable, or can
be made so, as fertilizer for potatoes
on sandy soil. If the prejudice against
sawdust from resinous woods in gen.
eral can be removed, and vegetable
matters gathered and applied to the
soil with less regard to its origin and
more for its effects, it is quite likely
that many farmers would find in tile
pine forests ami groves a valuable adj
lition to their scant supply of bedding.
and at the same time furnish the much
needed vegetable matter. One map
raked up the pine leaves with what
decayed vegetable matter thcro was
under them and mixed the mass with
ime and let it be in a pile few weeks
md then used it for potatoes With
good results.

Anybody who knows Mr.. Anton Rev.

will at once recognize in the following
from the Grafton Sentinel OF last weel;
another characteristic act of his, but
one who does not know him might won.
dor a long time who the man therein
spoken OF could be:
Mr.. George Green wentoverto Prunty-
town on Tuesday and delivered to Sill
perintendent Showalter, OF the Reform
School the money, amounting to $40 60.
which he collected in Grafton for tho
purpose OF buying instruments ior the
band that is to be organized among tho
boys in that institution. While George
was therca letter wasreceived from Gen.
Gotfenclosing acheck for S2Oforthe band
fund. Anthony Raymond, OF Wheeling.
however, makes most liberal offer.
Mr.. Raymond, who is the president OF
n musical organizationin Wheeling, and
feeling lively intercstin the one about
to be started in the Reform school, pro-
posed to Superintendent Showalter to
furnish the entire set OF instruments at
his own expense, il left to him, SO that
the contributions now in and those
coming in may be used in employing an
instructor and bearing such other cx-
penscs as always attend such an orsani-
cation. We presume Mr.. Reymonds
liberal ofterwill DO accepted. y

Twenty.nlno OF tho Filty.four Coun.
ties In West Virginia...Two Counties
in Ohio nrc also NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
very Interesting Figures Local
Troubles la 1t.

Tho report Of Mr.. Wilson, local agent
Of tho Il. G, Dun Company, for tho
closing year will be very creditable.
Tho district. covered by the Wheeling
office includes two counties, Belmont
aud Monroe, in Ohio, and twenty-nine
in West'Virginia.
In tho two Ohio counties named there
were in 1891 ilve assignments, with us.
sets OF S2,2l3, and liabilities OF $1,000.
Last year there were but three failures,
but the liabilities were $1,000, with
assets OF but $500. In 1880 there were
also three assignments in the two coun-
tics, tho assets being $500 and the
liabilities s., 100. a1I7l
In tho twenty-nino counties In West
Virginia in 1901 the failures averaged
one to tho county, and tho average
wonld have been smaller but for tho
local trouble in Lewis county. Even
counting Lewis county the comparison
with the two important Ohio counties
is favorable to West Virginia.
In tho first quarter there were five
assignments with liabilities OF $1,000
and assets OF just half as much, or $500.
In the second quarter the failures num-
bercd eight, the liabilities being 81 600
and the assets $1,000. In the third quar-
ter the failures were four, tho assets Sl2,-
500 and tho liabilities $4,000, and in the
fourth quarter there were twelve fail
ures, largely in Lewis county, the assets
being $l4, 100 and the liabilities Sl3,443.
OF the whole twenty-nine failures in
the year tho assets were SS4 900 and the
liabilities S32,6+3. Tho showing is GER
tninly not bad in comparison with tho
other reports from the country at large.
