What is the matter with Watson?
We see so much talk from Riyesyllle
and Hoult correspondents about their
great industries. Rivesyille has q lit:
tie country coal mine, employing 3
coal miners and a pit boss that. have
been working for about 4 muothts stor.
ing coal on the banks Of the Monon.
gahela river thinking they can supply
the demand for coal during the con.
templated strike. We have ten large
boilers up here that they could not
supply coal for unless they ran q day
and night turn. AS for Hoult, they
never did have any industries except.
ing an incubator and tho capacity Of
that was only 80 chickens every 8
weeks. one thing Hoult Is neted for
is the steep hills; on a bright Juneday
you can look up the chimneys and see
y . H.. F.. . ~
the farmers blowing corn on the hill
sides. Hoult farmers plant Rtvesyille
corn and RIyesville farmers plant
Hoult farmers corn. The hills are sol
steep you have to take a shot gun and
get on the opposite sideof the river
and shoot the corn in the hills on the
other side, When hoeing time comes
they have to get a long rope and tieI
it to a tree and then around their bod
les for safety. Would like for the
Hoult and Rlyesyille correspondence
to come up and take a look over Wat.
son before they do any more Dragging.
/ might mention a few Of our indus.
tries in order to show them that an
incubator and little country coal mines
are not in itwith us. We have 2 coal
