According to the annual review of the
Wool and Cotton Reporter, in proportion
In nonuIation the South built a larger
number of textile mills in 1884 than the

Whether the Code OF Virginia IL sum-

Every year since I have given attention
to the subject there has been more OF
less Texas-fever In Virginia, due to the
moving OF cattle from the infected district
into the non-infected district at period
of the year when the disease Is liable to
be spread. This fact confirms an opinion
which I have always he'd. that the mea-
sures provided by the Code Of Virginia
are not practical, and that there has been
no uniform action In the various paris
