some Giants That Grow at the Foot
Of the Blue Ridge Noun
tains.

Near Stuart Va, at the foot of 4
spur Of the Blue Ridge mountains
there is an apple tree which measures
nine feet and five inches around, saws
the Philadelphia Record. Five fee:
from the ground are four branches, the
largest being six feet around, the next
five feet six inches, the next five feet,
the smallest four feet five inches. The
tree is 50 feet high and II feet broad.
Although it is about 10 years old it
bore this year very large crop. 1t
has been known to produce ITO bushels
in season, and, as might be supposed,
the soil in which it grows is exceeding
ly rich.
On neighboring farm there is an
apple tree which is eight feet five
inches around In 1880 IS bushels of
nice picked apples were gathered from
1T and sold at the apple house for $50.
The tree is rs years old and is still bear
ing.
Two miles from Stuart, on the farm
of j. w. Robertson, stands the famous
Robertson apple tree, the parent of all
the apple trees Of that name in the
United States. 1t bears a large redap-
pie, which keeps well, and it has pro-
duced at one bearing S. bushels, is
about so years old and is still in bear
ing
a few years ago there was on farm !
near Stuart an apple tree which pro-
duced at one bearing 1870 bushels. 1t
shaded at meridian 90 feet Of ground in
diameter. Apple trees grow very large
in Patrick county, and the flavor of the
fruit is unsurpassed.

The Jumbo Eagle.

There is something peculiarly in
spring about an American Eagle. Nc
man--no American surelY-can look
upon this proud king Of the birds Of
all the earth and not feel a throb OF
admiration. The splendid poise OF
the head, the arch of the neck, the
strong talons, the fierce eye, all be-
speak the innate and inconquerable
nobility Of the feathered king of
Forest and mountain.
Over in the Jumbo store may be
seen perfect specimen, a singular
triumph of the taxidermist's skill. 1t
was shot by hunter few days ago
not far from town and presented to
Lud Churchill who lost no time in
sending it to a noted taxidermist at
St. Louis, and today itreturned beau
tifully and artistically mounted. and
now occupies central position iu the
Jumbo Store.
The bird measured feet s inches
from tip to tip, and the form of the
great plumed giant has been so cley-
erly preserved as to look most life
like and fresh

A Most Enjoyable Evening Spent
With DR.. and Mrs. Foreman.

The Enigma Social at the home
of Mr.. and Foreman last evening
was most enjoyable affair. Miss
Graper entertained those present
with some delightful selections on
the piano and Miss Jesse Daniel
also played very pretty selection
after which Mr.. Ratcliff called for
order and explained the Enigma"
feature of the evening.
Slips of papers were passed, on
which were written the enigmas
and a prize was offered for the
most successful guesser. Some
enigmas were rather vague so Mr..
Ratcliff explained that "Recogni-
tion" was a looking glass but that
he failed to see why a looking
glass should be called "Recogni-
tion." Mr.. P. S. Davis in his
presentation speech remarked that
still another enigma was that Mr..
Ratcliff failed to recognize himself
in the mirror.
While the judges were counting
the papers, Miss Carrie Stephens
gave Humorous Servant Girl
VS.. Book Agent" recition in a very
creditable style.
Miss Alice Cooper won the prize
a beautiful begonia in bloom.
One very original young man de-
cided that the "Gentleman from

The fact that large "Vest" re-
posed gracefully on the back Of
oarlor rocker, and that Woman

ast one answered with large

After the presentation was over
most delicious refreshments were
erved in the dining room.
