Few people know that an almost
continual state of warfare exists In
this country, the incidents of which
remain urchronicled by the general
press. Few weeks pass down on the
banks of the Rio Grande, which sepa.

without some battle between Snug

cooperate with Uncle Sans.

THE PEA CROP.

The pea crop in the Rsppahannock
valley, the yield from which was very
large, was not as remunerative this year
as usual to the planters, owing to the
fact that 1t was impossible TO secure the
necessary labor to gather the peas at
the proper time, causing delay in getting
them 10 the market while the high
prices prevailed, AMI the slump came
before the bulk of the crop could be
shipped.
inability to gather the peas will lead to
q new experiment. Many truckers will
harvest the ungRthered crops when the
peas become fully matured and save them
for seed. 1t is said that the seed of the
English pea requires peculiar treat.
ment to retain the germ vitality. Ig.
norance Of this treatment has prevented
Virginia truckers from attempting 10
save their own seed heretofore. Should
the experiment prove a success this
disastrous year may prove a blessing In
disguise.
