About 1000 vessels, including some
OF the largest steamships and war
ships afloat. have been hauled out in
the dry-docks at the plant during the
past sixteen years, and the first mishap
in the docking of vessels has yet to
occur at tho plant.
The largest number OF vessel ever
handled in the basins in n single day
was nine, four of them being taken out
of the docks and five floated in with
in twelve hours. This rather remark
able docking feat occurred last August.
The repair department is ono OF the
most important departments in the
plant, about $s.ooo,O0O worth of this
kind of work being completed annn-
ally. This includes the docking fees
and the worn done on the vessels while
they are in tho dock.
Much of the success of tho Ship
building company is III to the untir-

Formation Of New Countie..

fOrmatlOn OK new Counties.
Please let me know what steps are
prescribed by law in forming new
counties in Virginia. ]. C.
Proposed county must not contain
less than 600 squar miles and 5000
people. nor leave any county from
which its territory is taken below
those limits. A county moro than fifty
miles long or ono whose length is
more than three times the breadth
may be divided. Notice OF petition 10

ty must be posted on q court day at
the front door OF the courthouse In
every county affected by the change.
and must state the pounds OF the pro
posed county. the location OF. the new
county seat. and the. names Of tho
counties from which territory Is drawn.
This must be done at least sixty days
before the election OF members Of the
General Assembly. Fifteen days be-
fore tho election OF members of the
General Assembly, each clerk In the
counties affected must be served with
certificate that the notices first men
toned have been posted according 10
law. These clerks shall then provide
poll books, cause ballots &C BIO printed
and separate ballot boxes to be in
place. and the officers OF the general
election shall conduct, at the same
time and place With the election OF
members OF the Assembly. a special
election TO determine the sentiment for
or against the new county. The poll
books. etc, covering the result OF this
special election must be sent to the
clerk OF the House OF Delegates and
the representatives OF the region in
question would. in general. get passed
a law making such provision for tile
new connty as the people desired. IT
seems that the initial notice may be
signed by only one person. Provision
is made against incessant annoyance
in the posting Of such notice by the
stipulation that, In case the majority
against tho proposed county Is very
great, no similar attempt may be made
for six years.

BIG LOST RIVER PROJECT.
Steady Land Sales In Big Custer
County Reclamation Plan.

Guy c. Barnum president of the Big
Lost River Land and Irrigation com
pany, over in Custer county, was in
town this week on company business.
He says that the company has sold
about 5000 acres Of water rights on its
project since the opening on the 4th of
September, and that sales are going on
steadily. While the land lies some
what higher than the land in the Lin
coin projects, ranging from 5000 down
to 4,200 feet, it is the levelest and
easiest prepared or cultivated of any
of the projects. It is extremely fer
tile, as the old ranches show, there
being between 1900 and 5000 acres of
improved land adjacent to the project,
part of which has been in cultivation
a number of years. Great quantities of
apples, prunes, sugar beets, and small
grain are produced, and this years
crops have been an object lesson to all
the new eomers. The sugar beet crop
is unusually good, the beets being
shipped down the Mackey branch to the
Blackfoot sugar factory.

GOOD PLACE FOR HATCHERY.
State Fish Farm May Be Located
on Silver Creek.

Governor Gooding and State Game
Warden Stephens came down from Sill
yer Creek, Saturday, after careful
examination of sites for the proposed
fish hatchery. They have about agreed
on a location, provided only that by
walling up a certain spring the water
can be raised four or five feet to give
sufficient flow through the building. A
40-acre tract will be secured, ample for
all the needs of the hatchery, though
not providing for game park or bird
breeding establishment. Robert Stiles,
the hatchery expert who is to have
charge of the institution, remained to
make further measurements. The land
lies only few yards from the railroad,
giving the best of shipping facilities
for the fry.
The Mammoth Springs at the head of
the north fork of Snake river, in Ere
mont county, still appeals to the COVER
nor as the best place in the state for
hatchery and park on a large scale.
This land, however, is within the for
est reserve, and not available except by
an almost endless red tape route. The
Silver Creek location, however, can
be made ideal for the hatchery alone.
