CANNING FACTORY.

No doubt very few people Of
the town have, as yet, visited our
new industry the Canning Fac
tory, and are not aware of the
benefits that are already accru
ing to this town and vicinity from
the operation Of the same here.
We heard often from the knock
srs that canning factory could
not do anything here and they
would invariably say, with a very
suggestive smile upon their face
What have you got to can? and
upon enumerating the many
things that could be handled,

mentioned and very frequently

who should foster all improve

Many said, you can never buy
blackberies at fifteen cents per
gallon. Have any of them visited
the factory to learn how wise
they were and how very we'll

We have seen for ourselves
the output of the factory up to
Thursday evening, when there
had been canned approximately
1900 2-lb cans, and with suf
ticient supply on hand to run all
Friday forenoon and was in

MISTAKES or WOMEN.

One Of the mistakes of women
ID in not knowing how to eat. II a
man is not to be fed when she is,
she thinks cup Of tea and any
thing handy is good enough. II
she needs to save money she does
it at the butchers cost. If she
is busy, she will not waste time
eating. If she is unhappy, she
goes without food. A man eats
if the sheriff is at the door, if his
work drives, if the undertaken
interrupts and he is right. A wo-
man will choose ice cream instead
Of beefstake, and a man will not.
Another of her mistakes is in
not knowing how to rest. II she
Is tired, she may sit down but
she will darn stockings, crochet
shawls, embroider dollies.
She doesn't know that hard
work tires. II she is exhausted
she will write letters, figure her
accounts or read up for some
circle or club.
She would laugh at you if you
limited that reading or writing
could fail to rest her. All over
the country women's hospitals
flourish, because women do not
know how to rest.
Another mistake on the list is
their constant worring. Worry
and hurry are their enemies and
yetthey hug them to their bosoms.
Women cross bridges before they
come to them, and even build
bridges.
Women are not jolly enough.
They make too serious q business
OF life, and laugh at its little
humors too seldom. Men can
stop in the midst Of perplexities,
and have q hearty laugh and it
keeps them young. Women can
not and that is one reason why
they fade 20 early. There are
other reasons but we will pass
them now. Worry not only
wrinkles the face, but it wrinkles
and withers the mind. Have
hearty laugh once in while. It
IL agood antiseptic and willpurify
the mental atmosphere, drive
away evil imaginings, bad tenn
pers and otherills. Buffalo Times.

A Californian has hit upon q
novel plan for making poultry
work in his plum orchard where
and how he will, of cleaning the
land of curcluios and fertilizing
1t at the same time. He has
twenty eight small, portable
houses, each containing about
fifty hens. Most of the house is
simple enclose Of wire mesh,
with q covered annex for stormy
weather and for . roosting place.
The hens are kept healthy
by putting layer Of straw in the
enclosure and throwing grain
into It, which gives them abun-
dAnt exercise in the shape Of
scratching. At short intervals
= horseis hitched to the house and
II il moved ahead one tree row, to

ration Of scratching cultivating

and enriching the orchard.

The Fishing Season.

There was a noticeablespurt of activity
at Fishtown this morning. About 20,
900 herring had arrived and dozen or
more cutters were busily at work. No
shad, however, had been received, and
but few rock or perch. Herring had
declined in price and ranged from SO. so
tc IS per thousand. Shad were firm,
and were held at from $50 to $50 hun
dred. People operating small seiues
near the city are catching fine black
bass. Most of them are brought to the
city market and sold to hucksters.
They are sold at fancy prices. Persons
employed at Fishtown complain Of the
rude conduct of numbers of negroes of
both sexes and all ages who loiter around
the wharves and board vessels before the
lines are made fast. Baltimore, it is said,
is receiving the benefit this year of an
unusual supply Of shad. Not for 90
years have shad been so plentiful in that
market or the prices as low as at
present.

The Gas Works.

The Clerk of the City Gas Works says
it appears from the general run of the
gas bills for the quarter ended March l
that the past three months consumption
will not equal that of the corresponding
period one year ago. This is owing,
no doubt, partly to the small supply of
a not over-good article produced during
the recent changes in construction at the
works. With the greatly increased price
of coal, it is not probable that large
profits will be received from the gas
works this year to assist the city's gen.
eral fund.- 1t is stated that an addi-
tional appropriation of "a, 600 or 50, 600
will be necessary to complete and pay
for the new works.

The two cases of grand larceny against
Amos P. Elliott were set for trial this
morning. The first case was foI
the larceny of 1924 from William Mar
cey. and the second for stealing siol
belonging to Walker Chapel, Methodist
Church. These cases have attracted
considerable attention, as Elliott was
CAPTURED in New York, after the alleged
theft. and Commonwealth Attorney
Clements found it necessary to obtain a
reouisition from Governor Montague, OF
Virginia, upon Governor Odell, of New
York, to have Elliott brought back to
Alexandria county for trial.
Before the cases were called this
morning Elliott had made restitution OF
the money and paid all costs and ex-
penses in the matter, whereupon the
cases were mol pressed with the consent
of the court. 1t was shown that Elliott
was not fully accountable when he COM
mitted the offense.
Court adjourned for the term.
During the term six criminals were
sent to prison and the criminal docket
was pretty well cleared.
