A BRIGHT IDEA
The following anecdote will. ] think,
bear repeating: Some years ago ten law
yers from our county attended Giles
Court, travelling. as was necessary al
that time, horseback. On their return,
having partaken literally Of the best
that Pearisburg could AFFORD, they were
confronted by a toll-gate. The old lady
who kept II refused passage until her Zee
was paid. The travellers found that the
smallest piece Of money they had was
a 50-cent piece. This the keeper could
not change. A consultation was held, and
after a long and heated tripartite discus
sion one of the gentlemen hit upon q
bright idea. Said he: Jim, tell you
what to do. / will hold the pole and
you Just ride the change out" This was
thought capital by Jim. and he proceeded
to do so, but wound up on the wrong
side OF the gate, and barely escaped hay-
ing to pay another fee to pass through.

OUR OFFER TO FARMERS.

Frequently within the past year or two
the Dispatch has called the attention OF
our farmers to the Importance OF tho
cultivation Of bright tobacco. There are
thousands OF acres Of land classified as
poor. idle. and unproductive, which could
be made to yield most gratifying results
from such cultivation. The experiment
in South Carolina upon similar lands has
been wonderfully successful. The Tobacco
Trade here have been aroused to the
Importance Of this subject, and are urging
our farmers who now grow no tobacco
to engage in the production of this staple.
1t Ia q source of qualification to US that
this important question. the growing
of bright tobacco, is beginning to
receive attention from our farmers and
the trade. and In order to stimulate en-
terp-lse and furnish needed information
to planters tn, Dispatch offers four
premiums Of $50, SIS, SIS. and SO. re-
spectively, for the four Virginia OF North
Carolina crops OF 1885 OF highest merit
sold in the city OF Richmond.
A committee On awards will be duly
appointed from the Tobacco Trade. Com
petition will be open alone to farmers OF
Virginia and North Carolina, and only
10 those who engage IL this industry for
the first time this year, and who an
nounce their intention to the Dispatch
Company Of competing on or before the
ist Of August. 1896.
In connection with the offer Of prizes
we propose TO publish series OF articles
on the culture and curing Of bright to-
bacco, from the planting OF the seed TIL
the leaf IA ready for Market The nrst
article will appear next week.
We further offer as a premium 10 any
one sending in (cash In fulD two months
subscription to the Daily or a years SUBJ
scription to the Weekly Dispatch one
ounce of the best bright-tobacco seed
sufficient to plant several acres. This will
enable subscribers to get at the same time
seed for planting and the beneft OF our
series of valuable articles on the culture
OF bright tobacco. Address EDITOR OF

The various discouragements which
some OF the European cities have met
with m securing satisfactory street pave
ments have led to somewhat extensive
and. It would appear. encouraging ex-
periments with what Is called cork pave
ment--from the fact that cork Is the
most prominent and essential insredient
In the amagam OF which it Is composed.
The pavement used IN Vienna consists OF
granulated cork mixed with mineral as
phalt and other cohesive sub
stances, compressed into blocks OF suita-
bic size and form. Among the numerous
advantages set forth in Its behalf are
cleanliness. noiselessness. durability. eias-
ITCHY, freedom from slipperiness.

Unlike wood, too, II Is non-absorbent.
and consequently inodorous. 1t presents
the minimum resistance to traction. and.
being elastic under passing loads, does
away with the vibration caused by heavy
teaming. The blocks are inbedded in tar.
and rest upon q concrete base six inches
thick. When taken UP for examination
they have exhibited, when compared with
new ones, reduced thickness by wear
OF less than one eighth inch-this in the
case Of section of London street lead
ing to the Great Eastern railway station,
subjected to continuous heavy traffic, the
blocks having been in use nearly two
years.
