Colonel Whitehead to Make In
teresttna Experiments at Ashland.

Colonel Thomas Whitehead. the genial
Commissioner of Agriculture Of Viz
ginia has established quite a little ex-
perimenta1 station OF his place. at Ash
land. During this summer he will make
some interesting and beneficial tests there
as to The culture OF the sugar beet and
Hahana tobacco The Colonel has Sc
cured a great deal of literature and pri-
vate Information touching these subjects,
and proposes TO give the entire state the
benefit Of his experiments.
Colonel Whitehead intends TO plant
some of the seed upon his place ana
watch its growth carefully, AT the same
time observing all the instructions that
he has received. He will make several
paintings. one will be made at an early
day. and others will follow during the
summer. IT is his intention TO deter
mine when Is the time to plant the seed
in this section Of the State to get the
best results.
Colonel whitehead said yesterday. ave
have sent out all our first consignment
of seed. but ! am expecting more in a
few days, so that we can continue to I'LL
orders.
81 am pleased to know that the most
progressive farmers In the State are send
ing for the seed. and they Will, | know,
fsake thorough tests of IT.
"The outlook IL very promising for Vir-
ginia farmers 10 go into beet raising.
There is no question but everything is
favorable TO II being a very profitable
industry"
Colonel Whitehead will also make some
very interesting experiments with Ha-
Jaaa tobacco at his Ashland place. He
will endeavor to discover the way to
keep the flavor In seed grown here 1t Is
known that the trouble with Habana to-
bacco seed has been that in this state,
after two years. the product loses the
flavor which makes II SO much sought
for and so valuable. Colonel Whitehead
believes that he has discovered the way
OF preserving the flavor in the seed
grown here. and II his experiment proves
this ne will have brought about a new
era I'm tobacco-raislng I'm Virginia.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been

The usual symptoms are fun or Floating

times with sour or watery risings, q
formation of gases, causing pressure Oh

ness. and a general played-out, languid

There is often foul taste In the mouth,

stomach could be seen 1t would show a
Shiny, infamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble is found in a treatment which
causes the food to be readily. thoroughly
disested before II has time to ferment and
irritate the delicate mucous surfaces OF
the stomach. TO secure a prompt and
healthy digestion is the one necessary
thing to do, and when normal digestion
Ia secured the catarrhal condition will
have disappeared
According to DR. Harlanson, the safest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet. Composed of Diastase.
