TOLL ROADS.

The road problem is the greatest and
most important now before the Vir-
ginia people. Each county, and every
community in each county, is concern
ed, and If they are not deeply interest
ed they should be. One OF our best
young citizens thinks that the best way
out is to borrow a sufficient sum of
money to mcadamize the thoroughfares
OF the county, and have toll gates. and
make the road pay for itself this way.
and by people only who use the load.
Another suggestion is, that each
property owner mcadamize the road
along the front of his own farm. allow
ing him sufficient time, and the help Of
all the people living on his farm and
back OF him, who may have occasion to
use the road. One thing is well estab-
lished, viz: That if we ever have good
roads we must tax ourselves to build
them. AT present each different sec
ton OF the state seems TO be whiting
Tor some other section of the state TO
make their roads, by enactment OF law.
or otherwise. Just why any communi-
ty should expect to have good roads
built any other way than by taxation.

Wishing TO open saloon must get n
majority OF the registered voters i'm his
district to sign a petition asking for the
license. This puts the burden upon
the man desiring TO open the saloon.
If majority of the registered voters
who generally, are the taxpayers, want
a saloon they have the opportunity Of
saying so. This seems TO be fair Il
the people most interested want any
thing they have a right to say so. and
whether by petition or the ballot boz
makes little or no difference. Should
this bill become law many saloons Il
the state will be closed, as. we believe

The latest one is that at least two
of the seventeen Republicans of the

and in favor of retaining Judge
Campbell on the bench.
One of them, Mr.. Moore, of Taze-
well, does not hesitat to state ms

against the report because the ac-
cused Judge has but little while
longer TO serve, and because per-
sonal friends desire he shall so vote.
Mr.. Moore is big-hearted gentle
man, and desires, he says, to crafty

SHIPPING DRESSED LAMBS.
Best Winter Lambs For the Market.
Shipping Stretcher.

Shipping Stretcher.
Winter lambs for market should
weigh not less than forty-Hve pounds
alive and be fat. This condition is de-
termined somewhat accurately by feel
Ing the brisket and the tail near the
body. A high degree Of fairness IS more
important than weight. as they sell by
the carcass rather than by weight The
weight of two lambs being the same,
the younger one will sell higher. The
evidences OF age are the fleece and the
degree OF Justification In the bones.
Most lambs are marketed between the
ages OF ten and sixteen weeks. n few
as young as eight weeks. The market
for them extends from Christmas to
Easter, according to an Ohio Farmer
correspondent, who further says:
To prepare n dressed lamb for ship
ping. sew about each lamb square
yard OF clean, new muslin. as shown in
the cut. We have shipped in various
ways and by both express and refrlger-
ator freight We now place each lamb

tried shipping in crates. but the crates
would get crushed.
