AF4RMERs' CONTENTION.
Important Movement Inaueurated by the
State Board OF Agriculture.

When the State Board Of Agricul-
ture met on January lith last the foi-
lowing resolution was offered by Col.
A. 5. Buford. president OF the Board. and
adopted: Resolved. That a committee or
three be appointed 10 consider the prob
able utility and practicability of securing
during the ensuing spring a large and
representative convention Of the farmers
OF Virginia. or OF the several States OF the
Union. with power to act on the subject
az they shall deem best
The President appointed the followng
Messrs. Hurt Hine and Whitehead, and
President Buford was made a member OF
the committee ex ofilcio.
Since tho adoption OF this resolution.
the committee has given the matter ma
ture consideration. and as result has
issued the following circular addressed 10
the members OF State Agricultural Board
In the various States OF the Union:
Richmond, Va. Feb. 6th 1891
Dear Slr,-Our Virginia State Board OF
Agriculture has under consideration a
proposal OF recent origin for holding a
representative convention OF the farmers
OF the several States. at some suitable
time and place during the ensuing spring.
Tor conference. discussion, and concerted
action on pending public questions Of
our agricultural population. y positive
and spontaneous interest In this state in
behalf OF the movement has been devel-
oped and some initial steps TO meet II
are deemed TO be proper and necessary.
To that end we beg respectfully TO re-
quest your concurrence in what we have
now TO suggest, viz. as an initiatory pro-
ceeding that a preliminary conference he
held at the Ebbitt House. Washington,
ID. c., say March ;. 1891. at which de-
finite plan should be easily devised ard
adopted for constituting organizing. and
conducting a body such as IS thus pro-
posed 20 be assembled. In such manner
as would be then and there determined
10 be appropriate and practicable; and in
view OF the brevity Of intervening time.
we take the liberty further 10 suggest dn
default OF something else preferred that
such cOnferees could appropriately con-
sist OF one or more delegates-not eX-
ceeding five from any ono State-either
of designated members Of organized state
Boards. or State Commissioners OF Agri-
culture. or Of such others. representative
farmers. as may be appointed or accre-
dited for such conference by State Boards
or other competent State authority.
We do not venture to detain you now
with further details or any presentation
Of the large possibilities for good TO our
farming communities. that may reason
ably be hoped for and expected as ulti-
mate results from intelligent and sue
cessful work on the line indicated.
We trust the idea and purposes sug-
gested will receive your cordial approba-
ton and active sympathy and we beg
I'm conclusion that you will allow this
communication 10 have your early con-
sideration and reply
Yours very respectfully.

There was a miraculous escape from q
serious railway disaster on the Cleve-
land, Lorain & Wheeling road, Just one
mile west OF Bridgeport, at 5 o'clock last
night. The passenger train from Cleve-
land was coming in at a pretty lively
speed. when at the point stated It ran
into an open switch, 1t was a bad place
for collision as there Is very sharp
curve,
The engine struck a train Of gondolas
standing on the switch and telescoped
two or them. The engine was badly
wrecked. While none OF the passengers
on the train was seriously injured, all OF
them were more or less shaken up. Missel
Estela and Nettie Kraus and Mary
Burk, Of this city, were passengers on
the train returning from visit to Cleve-
land They were showered with broken
glass and tossed about by the shock, Mrs
Emelne Buster, Of Martins Ferry, re.
celved The worst injuries having four
teeth knocked out, She is about sixty
years OF age.
The engineer must have succeeded IN
reversing the engine and applying the
air brakes, else the impact would have
been greater The road at the point
where the collision occurred is close to
the creek, and the embankment has
sheer fall Of twenty feet. II the speed
OF the passenger train had not been
checked the coaches would have gone
over the bank into the creek,
