OPENING WEST VIRGINIA.
Two New Railroad Projects Incubating
with prospects Of success.

A Pitlsburg paper says: The re
cent operation by the Baltimore ant
Ohio Railroad Of its new connection
between Unicntown and Farmont
the State Line Railroad. has openee
the northeastern part of West Yir
ginia as never before, and has led tt
plans to penetrate further into The
interior Al least two projecied
lines are likely 10 hc built as soon
rs comparative prosperity returns
Among those interested are a prom
inent ex officer Of the Pennsylvania
Railroad and several Pittsburg and
West Virginia capitalists.
One line will connect with the Bal.
timore and Ohio Railroad at or near
Point Marion, and will run up the
valley of the Cheat river twenty five
miles to Kingwood, where it will
meet the function, Kingwood and
Pittsburg Narrow Gauge Railroad
which runs south to the main line
of the Baltimore and Ohio. The
other line will tap the Baltimore and
Ohio somewhere between Point Mar
ion and Fairmont, probably at Nor.
gantown. 1t will he over 40 miles
long, probably terminating at Phil
ippi or Grafton. The country to he
tapped by both these lines is rich in
iron ore, timber, limestone, glass

Agricultural Notes.

Prizetaker onions sown in a hotbed
and transplanted later to the open
ground give excellent results.
Trianon Cos is a good summer lettuce.
Some gardeners use poultry wire net.
ting for supporting pea vines
When you receive trees or vines with
frozen roots, you can either cure or kill
them. Slow thawing means the one,
sudden thawing the other. Put them in
cool soil in the cellar and let frost draw
out gradually. Then all will be right.
The decline in the price of sheep has
been considerable in the last year. Hogs
have also fallen in price, but there is ev-
cry appearance of rapid recovery.
In prices horses have declined "a per
cent, mules 10 per cent, milk cows have
remained almost stationary, but with in
creasing tendency, while oxen and other
battle have lost three-eighths per cent.
The American Cultivator says nova
days the quality of potatoes depends
more on keeping the foliage whole and
free from blight than on the kind of soil
they are grown on.
Good heads of caulifower only grow
tn cool weather and rich soil. Do not
expect good results ON dry poor soil or
in dry, hot weather. The heads must
form either very early or quite late.
T. D. Terry says when he sends 800
worth of beef to the city he sends with it
$15 worth of fertility, but when he sends
300 worth of potatoes he sends along
only $40 worth of fertility.
Farmers often dust plaster over fresh.
ly cut seed potatoes for the purpose of
absorbing the moisture and rendering
the tubers easier to handle, and it is pos
sible that the coating of plaster, when it
dries upon the tuber, may prevent the
loss of moisture and delay shriveling,
but its advantage in this respect, Pro-
fessor Bailey thinks, must be small.

California as a Sanitarium

In an article written for the Califor-
MAN, Lieutenant John p. Finley, OF
the United States Weather Bureau:
makes the, following statement,
Theoretically California should fur
nish the best and the most varied
health resorts and sanitarium in the
United States. Within her borders
almost every form of wasting disease
should find the means of temporary,
if not permanent relief
This theoretical statement, from all
unbiased, scientific standpoints, is
fully and abundantly confirmed by
actual experience. The cool and brac-
ing coast climate, devoid of any trace
of malaria, extends from the northern
part of the State to the extreme south.
There is the choice between this cool,
humid atmosphere and the dry, warm
atmosphere of the inland valleys.
In the matter of altitude there is a
yet greater difference. From Palm
Valley, 300 feet below sea level. to the
upper Sierras, 1000 or 5000 above,
any altitude can be selected, and
comfortable homes be founded.
The popularity of an almost rain
less summer, during which the injur-
ious germs Of animal and vegetable
decay are destroyed by thorough desi-
cation, is one of the striking features
of California climate.
During the rainy season it is usual
ly too cool to facilitate fermentation,
and the result is, except along some
of the river valleys, an absolutely pure
atmosphere. The ocean winds enter
ing through the several coast openings
are tempered by the intermediate area
passed over, and often receive desira-
BILE healing properties by taking up
the resinous odors of the pines and
redwoods on the Coast Range.
The skillful physician, acquainted
with the climatic conditions, should
find little difficulty in selecting To-
cality where climate environment will
do all that these agencies can ever do
toward the restoration of health.
There is enough Of wildness to keep
the mind constantly engaged, and
enough of civilization to satisfy the
most eXacting.
Sufferes from pulmonary diseases
people whose systems are charged
with malaria, or are ''run down" by
over work, find immediate and in
many cases permanent relief in this
invigorating climate, establishing
anew the fact recognized by all intel !
ligent persons, whether physicians or
laymen, that s'Nature is the best
healer"

Professor Thomas of Minnesota writes
in The Live Stock Report about the diff
ficulties in getting clover catches on
new land i'll the northwest. He attrib-
utes the fact to porosity of new soil,
which causes drying winds to penetrate
it and take away its moisture. An ex-
change commenting on the foregoing
says: In the dry regions beyond the
great lakes this may possibly be the
effect, but elsewhere we have found
that a soil which is porous at the SUI
face furnished the best clover catch.
Loose soil on the surface acts as mulch
and keeps the soil below moister than
it would otherwise be. We have usu-
ally had better catches of clover on land
newly cleared than on that long cult
waited. On the later sowing on sur
face that has been repeatedly frozen and
thawed during the winter gave the best
results. But on new cleared land we
have had just as good clover catches
with oats, which are generally a poor
crop to seed with.

IN THE VEGETABLE GARDEN.

Hotbeds and Cold Frames-Pea Brush and
Tomato stahes-shady Sheds For Celery.
A mistake frequently made by gar
deners of little experience is not making
proper allowance for the inevitable set
Ting of the manure. We want the soil
of hotbeds and cold frames pretty near
the glass in order to avoid drawn"
spindling plants. No matter how care
fully and solidly the manure is packed
down, it will settle down several inches
afterward.
Another important precaution is to
pack the bed soil down firmly. Well
prepared hotbed soil is quite loose, and
far too loose for best results in plant
growing unless well packed down. An
Inch or so of the surface can then be
nellowed and smoothed by means of a
fine steel rake, and the bed will then be
ready for the seed.
The amateur, in his limited operations,
can do many things which it would not
be profitable for the market gardener to
undertake ON his larger scale. The for
mer does not miss the time it takes him
to cut and put in the few sticks needed
to "brush" his little row of peas. 1t is
nice to have peas brushed. They look
well. They do well. But when you
have peas by the acre or even half acre
you will prefer to rely on dwarf sorts
and perhaps some manipulation in turn
ing from side to side with rake or fork
handle rather than on brushing. In the
same way few rows of well trained to-
matoes can be made great attraction in
the home garden. 1t will not do to wait
until brush and stakes are needed before
we think of getting them. Apple tree
trimmings now furnish material for pea
brush. For tomato stakes we prefer
sawed lumber, says a writer in Ameri-
can Gardener, authority for the follow
ing:
Another convenience which the anna
teur is better able to have than the mar
ket gardener is shady shed for his eel
cry and strawberry beds. This may be
simple affair, consisting of posts set
firmly into the ground in rows eight or
nine feet apart each way and at least
six feet above ground, with poles or
scantlings across on top and laths or
brush fastened over these to give a
healthy mixture of light and shade.
Evergreen brush might be used to
good advantage for the covering, but
must be put on rather thinly to avoid
overshading. 1t seems to me that shady
shed of this kind might we'll be found
among the equipments of every home
garden. Almost anything will do for
posts. If they have to be cut purposely
in the wood, | would select, if possible,
sticks with crotch or branch, thus pro-
viding natural rests for the cross poles
or scantlings. A dozen posts will be
enough for shed covering bed nearly
two rods square and giving space for
800 or more plants of celery when grown
by the new method.
Blight has been the all powerful foe
which has so often snatched the well
earned success with early celery away
from us in recent years when we thought
we were sure of it. This year we shall
test the virtues of the shady shed, COM
bined with subirrigation, in the hope
that the combination will prove pana-
cea for all the ills that the celery crop is
heir to.

The Little Mountain state.

1t is becoming almost as common
10 speak Of West Virginia as the
Little Mountain State as TO refer to
New York as the Empire State.
Though there is much truth in the
liite, ct we fear it is often a little
misleading. A reference to little
State usually brings to mind Rhode
Island and Delaware, and we do not
want to class West Virgins with
them in size. Ours is small State
in comparison with many Others,
yet there are no less than eight
States in the Union that are smaller
than West Virginia. Only one of
the six New England States is larg-
er than our Mountain State. Leav.
ing out Maine, West Virginia is
larger than any two of the others,
and her surface will cover the small
est four of those States. We have a
county that lacks less than 100
square miles of being as large as
Rhode Island, and yet plenty of
New Englanders would not believe
there is such place as West Vir-
ginia, unless some Yankee was the
author of the book that told them
so.
West Virginia is more than twice
as large as Maryland, and more than
three times as large as New Jersey
We should have a correct under.
standing of our State in respect to
its relation and comparison with
others. 1t is mountain State, and
if we call it the Little Mountain
State, we should not let the title lead
us to forget its Importance and high
rank in many respects. Do not for
get that West Virginia is not mere
~ little pine thicket cut off from
the mother State as not worth own
ing, but that it has many high
mountains, fertile valleys, flourish
ing towns and happy, prosperous
people. Let us stand up fer what
we really are.
