CHARLEsToN. w VA. Feb. 10
A little act trsnspired here within
the past few DAYS that displays
wonderful energy and pluck. Miss
Mary Kenna, aged fourteen, daugh
ter OF the late United States SEN
ator John Il. Kenna, is the hero: ne
OF the story. Her mother. Mrs.
Anna kenna. the postmistress
here. has been in Washington, ID.
c., for several days examining the
statue Of her late distinguished
husband. MISS Mary desired to
accom- any her mother TO that CITY.
but Mrs. Kenna thought it wise
Tor the daughter to remain at home
and see to the household. The
6affied daughter turned to her in
genulty. She proceeded to write
to the president Of the .Chesapes k g
Il Ohio railroad, and asked him for
u round trip pass from here To
Washington. On Friday the
young girl was rewarded by iec.lv-
ing the pass and yesterday she ar
ranged for the care Of the house
hold during her absence and took
the tram for Washington. She
telegraphed her brother to meet
her at the train. but not To tell the
mother, who WAS taken by surprise
by the daughter, proud of her vic
tory. The daughter wanted to be
present at the unwilling of her
f"ther's statue. which will take
place in few days. Miss Mary is
said to resemble her father very
much both In appearance and de-
termination.

Survey of Sociological Thought
during the summer quarter NJ Tho

course traces the gradual Develop
ment of sociological thought fl ON
antiquity through Hebrews, Greek ),

down to our own times. The So

MoReANTowN. w. Va,
February IL, 1898.
One Of the most important steps
yet taken TO place the West Vir-
GINA University in line with the
leading and most progressive uni
versities Of the country is.the re-
vision OF the courses and schedule
OF studies so that as far as possible
subjects will be taken up and com
plcted in one quarter. Instead OF
scattering over several subjects for
q year or more, the student will
concentrate his energies on two or
three subjects. master them, pass
his examinations, and be ready to
take up something else. One of
he great advantages Of this modern
system is that students entering
the University at the beginning Of
any quarter will find courses com
menclng which he can take up and
complete In one quarter.

CRANBERRIES.
Their Growth Profitable In Canada.
Why Not In Tucker And Preston

in this part OF Canada, is Cranber-

more money and lees labor IN

lie last fall gathered from two

one hundred and eighty five barrels
Of this very p'Iatable berry.
The prices were good and the

Just think Of it: Here was a
two acre bog OF supposed worthless
land (and there are many like it in
Tucker, Preston and Randolph
counties,) from which Mr.. Shaw
Realised the handsome sum of over
81, 100. Why not in Tucker utilize
these same lands. heretofore con-
sidered worthless.
Mr.. Shaw in his published state
ment, SAYS, that the first choice OF
land for the cranberry growth, Is a
spruce or alder swamp, sec md, a
bog, third. low wet sandy land.
Ii the sand can be brought to the
surface with u pillow, so much the
better and cheaper; il not. the sur
face must be covered to the depth
OF at least four inches with sand;
the deeper the muck, the more
sand required.
Set the vines in May or June si1
or eight barrels Of vines to the
acre, make the burrows three OF
four inches deep. strew the vines
in and cover we'll, letting the up
rights stick above the ground. II
necessary, keep down weeds and
grass the first and second year
after that the vines will take care
of themselves.
The ground should be flooded
with water from the middle Of No
yember until the first or middle OF
May. This is not absolutely nee
essary to the growth of the crop,
but prevents injury from frosts and
kills the cranberry worm.
II the conditions are right. the
fourth or fifth years crop will pay
all expenses.
After that it is all clear profit,
no resetting or cultivating.
Mr.. SHAY says to get the most
worthless swamp or bog you can
find; do the work right and success
is certain. Suppose the yield to be
only forty barrels to the acre and
the net receipts per barrel only
$500; that would give profit of
5000, from only one acre of land.
Mr. Henry Shaw has also three
other acres set in cranberries COM
ing on, which he estimates that in
two or three years will bear equally
well with his two acre bog above
spoken OF, and he estimates the
crop of cranberries in Kings county
at 5000 barrels. AS the lay of the
land in Tucker county aud its
climate seems so much like that Of
Nova Scotia, / have no doubt,
many Tucker county farmer
could very pro6tabiy raise an acre
OF cranberries some where on his
mountain farm, and it would pay
him better than any other portion.
The fact is, he will always find a
good market for them and they are
80 cold he can ship them il neces-
sary to Europe without their spoil.
