IMPORTANT DECISION.

The AppomattoH and Buckingham
Times, of this week, contains the follow
ing article concerning an important decis-
ion recently handed down by the Court of
Appeals:
On the Sth day OF June, 1898. the Nor
folk and Western Railroad Company was
indicted by an AppomattoX grand ury for
running freight trains on Sunday The
case came up for trial, and was tried ut
the November term following of the
county court. They were found guilty,
and fine of so was imposed The COM
pany appealed the case to the Circuit
Court. which at the December term 1893.
affirmed the decision of our county court
The case was carried to the Supreme
Court of Appeals, where it has been pend
ing ever since. The Court of Appeals, in
its opinion rendered last Thursday. says:
Norfolk and Western Railroad Com
pany vs. the Commonwealth, Section :}S0l
of the Code, which prohibits railroad
companies from running freight trains on
sunday, is held not to Inc in conflict with
the commerce clause of the Constitution
of the United States, and is valid cyer-
else of the police power of the State for
the protection of the morals and health of
the people. The State has the right in
order To secure and protect the laws or
health of its citizens, or to preserve good
order, and the public morals. TO lcgiolatc
for such purposes. And where it is done
IN good faith. and without discrimination
against interstate or foreign commerce. il
l. not in violation of the comcrcc clause
of the Constitution of the United States
although such legislation may sometimes
touch in its exercise the line separating
the respective domains of Federal and
state authority, and. to some extent
affect interstate and foreign commerce"
Immediately after the opinion WAS
handed down by the Supreme Court the
Norfolk and Western Railroad issued or
ders that no freight trains should be run
on Sundays.
This case was argued in the county and
circuit courts by Hon. II. d. Flood fol
the Commonwealth, and stubbornlv
fought by Judge W. II. Mann and +. :.
kirkpatrik, Esq, for the railroad COM
pany
Our able Commonwealth : attorney has
taken great deal of interest in this case.
and 1T must certainly be gratifyig To him
TO have his views sustained by our court
of last resort.

the possibilities in ginseng culture. ] have at this writing December, '94) 3s beds in the garden stocked with roots and seeds, 25.ooo seedling roots in forest nursery beds, 2l,OOO seeds sown in forest, from which plants are expected next spring. and this seasons crop ot seed, packed in loam in condition to promote germination, ready to be sown next season. l have also during the past four years furnished the public with over 60,000 seeds and about 1,5OO roots for cultivation. I am aware of the general impression that ginseng culture is slow business, and that it cannot be made profitable success. 1 admit that 1t is slow starting and must be worked up from small beginnings. but when once fairly started can be developed quite rapidly. But no one need think he can rush into ginseng culture and make fortune in one or two years Setting 6 few roots or sow ing few seeds. and giving it no furth- CT attention, will never develop ginseng culture on a paying basis It won't spread over your ground like weeds.
 To my mind the business is best suited to the small farmer and market gardener.
 Chinaman came to Boston a few years ago wanting five hundred tons of ginseng-he succeeded in getting about -four hundred pounds. This is the way we are supplying the demand The ex ports of ginseng from the United States during ten years, 1sS2-l89l, amounted to nearly eight million dol lars-an item of some importance This valuable source of income will soon be thing of the past, unless an effort is made to develop it's cultiva- tion, as the wild plant is fast being ex- hausted in this country
 Ginseng is native in China, Tartary and Korea. It has been cultivated in Korea for hundreds of years. It is royal monopoly, cultivated under li- cense, and the value of the crop is esti- mated'a at five hundred thousand dollars a year.
 am often asked how can we get started in ginseng culture. My advice to all is to go into the forest, gather the wild roots and transplant them. A few weeks devoted to this work each year for few years will give a good start.

CULTURE OF GINSENG.
Crop That Can Be Made to Pay Very
 Handsome Profits.

This has yielded me over $500 from less than two square rods of ground in less than five years. l have taken this season 1S94l from seven beds (3x16 feet each 2,234 roots, weight 13l pounds. From these were taken out for replant- ing 1906 roots (5o4 pounds), leaving S0H pounds to be dried for market making 295l pounds dry, which sold for S5 per pound; 629 seeding roots, worth S2 per hundred, for transplanting, were also taken from the same beds, and are not included in above figures The 2,234 roots had been under cultivation in one bed five years and in the other four years, and had produced during the time at least S75 worth of seed. The first cost of stocking the beds with wild roots was less than $25. It will be observed that the stock has been de- creased only 32S roots.
 The above figures show something of
