FARMS IN VIRGINIA.
A SOUTH CAROLINA VIEW OF AGRf-
CULTURE IN THIS STATE.
The DEPARTMENT COMMENDED
Advantages Are Being
Brought to the Attention OF the
PcopIe of the North and North
wcst-simplc business Methods.


Hon. George w. Koiner. the Commits
sloner OF Agriculture, has only been In
office since the first OF the year. but du-
ring the few months Of his administration
he has been so active In setting forth the
advantages Virginia offers to home
seekers that both agricultural journals
and the daily press Of other States have
favorably commented upon the manner
in which he is conducting the work Of his
department.
Only recently a Michigan paper referred
to the favorable impression which the
residents Of that State had OF Virginia
as a result Of Mr.. Koiner's busness-like
methods of attracting attention to the
Old Dominion, and a few days ago one
Of the leading daily papers Of South Caro-
lima. in an editorial. compared the Vir-
gina Department OF Agriculture with that
OF the Palmetto state. and advised the
latter TO follow in the path of the Viz
ginia Commissioner. IL may be said in
this connection that the Department of
Agriculture OF South Carolina receives
$jaOQO annually. while that Of Virginia
now has to live on an Income or about
s. 600.

BUSINESS METHODS.

The editorial. which was quite a lengthy
one was. in part, as follows;
"This movement in favor Of Virginia
has been brought about by simple busi-
ness methods. Virginia has an official
known as Commissioner Of Agriculture.
This Commissioner does not spend MS
time discussing income tax, fertilizer tax,
free coinage Of silver 1G 10 /; nor does he
look to reform movements TO enrich
lands. make crops grow, pay old debts

creditor. and do all those marvellous
things promised by seedy politicians lie

He believes that small farms VIII hstu-
