AGRICULTURAL.
The Farmers Vacation,


Most farmers plan to take a few
days for visiting each year. 1t may be
only to drive to the homes OF nearby
friends or relatives, staying few hours,
and then returning, or they may go out
of the town or state to remain several
days, or both; but such visits are a
change and a rest, and do the farmer
and his family good in many ways.
But there are few farmers who think of
taking a regular vacation, dropping
all work and care and getting away
from work and worry for week or
two. Farmers wives need such resting
spells. 1t does them q world of good,
and every farmer who reads the
WATCHMAN ought to plan to send his
wife, if he is happy enough to have
one, away for a good long vacation. 1t
will do him good to depend on some
body else for home comforts while /;
he will realize how much his wife does
for him. And the wife must leave her
work behind, and not be all the time
worrying lest this or that should not be
done just right at home. She owes it
to herself and her family to get thor
ough rest. OF course we are perfectly
well aware that this advice cannot ap-
ply to all. Mothers with young chill
dren cannot leave them, and must have
them to care for if they leave home;
but go with them if you possibly can.
Thousands of women grow old in mid
die age just for want of little rest.
Let no man grudge his wife vacation.
OF course, when there is some one to
leave at home the farmer and his wife
should take their vacation together,
unless, as is sometimes the case, the
husband and wife need rest from
each other. After haying and harvest
ing are done is good time to get away,
and when one can go where he or she
chooses, and take a real rest from the
home work, it is great help to both
mind and body. 1t is desirable to 90 to
the seaside, or to some city, look on
new sights, let the mind take ia new
ideas, and get out of the old ruts in
thinking and working. Farmers do not
realize the need of this as do city peo-
pie. They have to take vacations; ma
ture evidently did not make men and
women to stay in cities all their lives.
A farmer who goes to the city soon
realizes that be is not the only one who
has to work hard, and if he has the
right opportunities for observation he
will 60 back to his farm home more
contented than ever He will have no |
desire to exchange his quiet farm life
for the noise and rush of the city. He
will realize as never before how free |
his life is compared with the lives of
those who are tied up to their desks,
offices, stores, shops and factories fifty |
weeks in year. OF course farming is
now under dark cloud and the future |
is not wholly promising, but so far as
real solid earthly comfort is concerned,
the farmer gets his share of it here in
the East. In the West it may not be
the same.

IT was the Leaders pleasure day
or two since to visit the State Hospital
for the Insane at Athens, and of course,
the recent change in the personnel of a
portion of the officers in charge was
noticed.
DR.. Rorick, the superintendent re-
Gently appointed impressed us as he
must quickly impress everyone, as be-
ing very fine man. He is dignifed,
though easily approached, and he,
with his interesting family, has settled
very gracefully into his new position.
The new Steward, Mr.. Frank
Rochester, of Logan, is young man of
good bearing, and has in him the ele-
ments of good business hustler and
general man of affairs.
We venture to predict that the in
stitution at Athens will prosper we'll
under the regime of these two new
officers.

MARIETTA ELECTRIC COMPANY.

The Marietta Electric Company is
the name of the corporation which will
construct and operate the new electric
street railroad. The charter has been
received from Charleston, having been
issued under the laws of West Virginia
with a privilege of increasing to $780,
900. The stock is all subscribed. the
company is organized and the work of
setting poles has commenced on Second
street. The Board of Directors will be
chosen Immediately and the permanent
officers elected. 1t is the intention to
push the work as rapidly as possible
and the buzz of the trolley will, in all
proba bility, be heard on Marietta
streets before the end of the year. The
stockholders of the new company are
all gentlemen of known solidity of
finances and character, which assures
the successful end of the promotion of
the enterprise, To Messrs Nelson
Moore, A. L. Gracey and John Kaiser
is due largely the credit for securing
to our city this valuab BILE and much
needed improvement More than
year ago they conceived the project
and set to work Immediately TO con.
summate their plans. Success was the
ineyita BILE result of their efforts. When
the project was in it's infancy the
Leader predicted its ultimate consum-
nation, basing its judgement upon the
well known ability of the projectors to
carry forward any undertaking. Since
that time there have become associated
with them, among others, the follow
ing enterprising and substantial bust
ness men: j. S. II. Torner, w. H. II.
Jett, ]. s. Simpson, E. w. Cline, II. E.
Smith, Dan T. McAyoy, James Tate
and E. Coste. 1t is with no small
amount of pleasure that the Marietta
public will view the first trip of an
electric car in the Pioneer City. 1t
will be one more exemplification of the
new and greater proportions which
our city has assumed.

this year. Assessor Dalton, when seen re-
garding the matter yesterday, said he
felt that such action would be taken and
added:
''The last assessment OF Assessor Leckie
was made in 1894 and amounted to $780,
s24, ,944. This was reduced by the County
Board of Equalization just 5000, leaving a
total assessment of 800, 81, ,744. The State
Board did not cite the county to show
cause why the assessment should not be
raised.
My first assessment was in 1895 and
amounted to $94,0S3. .282. This was re-
duced by the county board by 81, S73, 735,
leaving a total of $91, 832, 822 after deduct
ing 1916, ,725 of State mortgages, which
were worcestershire.
This year my assessment amounted to
$94, ,768, 740 and it was reduced by the
county hoard by $2.443, SAG, leaving an as
sessed valuation of SOL ,824, 1914. This year
there is $500. 900 of State mortgages, which
leaves $l24, It's more in State mortgages
than last year. That leaves net gain of
assessable property in the county of $115.-
SAT over 1895. The gain of 1896 over 1894
is 81, I26, ,625, aad there is no one, not even
the State Board of Equalization, who dare
say that valuations have increased IN this
county 10 that extent, as the values of
real estate have decreased fully 25 per
cent during the two years.

The Associated Charities will reap a
rich harvest from its benefit at the Expos-

'tWe are having favorable weather and
the crowds are constantly increa sing"
said Superintendent Crai.ie Sharpe. "Our
expenses are larger this year, but the at
tendance is also larger. The doors should

one of the directors. to-day, sit is GER
tainly drawing crowds. and as the people
want it continued longer than the conces-
sionaires want it, we probably will follow

advantage of the season tickets to visit
the exhibition every day. Personally
am in favor of its continuing for at least
another week"

The grand treasurer's report showed
that $1661 so had been paid to the widows
and orphans of deceased members; that
S3684 had been paid for the relief of mem
bers in sick ness, and that the cash in the
treasures OF the assemblies amounted to
$5687.
The grand secretary's report showed
membership of 1888, gain of 12s during
the year.
The grand presidents report expressed
more than satisfaction with the present
condition OF the society and full conf
dence in its future.
The consideration of proposed amend
ments to the constitution commanded
much attention. The constitution seemed
that but few changes were made, and
these were of minor importance.
Resolutions of respect to the memory of
the late George r. B. Hayes, past grand
president of the society, were adopted.
The business of the session was brought
to close with the election and installation
of the following grand officers: Grand
chaplain, Rev. Joseph F. Byrne; grand
president, Peter N. Hanrahan; grand first
vice. president, James A. Brien; grand
second vice-president. Herbert w. Salter /;
grand secretary, Samuel Haskins; grand
treasurer, James English grand marshal,
Frank G. Kenny; grand inside sentinel,
Daniel Fitzpatrick; grand outside sentinel,
Patrick Brazel. Grand trustees-Manuel
Rodgers, Hugh Mclaughlin. James Kill
gelion, Daniel Cronin, John Ryan.
The grand officers intend to strengthen
existing assemblies and organize new ones
in every parish. Permanent headquarters
will be established in Loyola Hall at
Tenth and Market streets.
The society was organized in San Fran
