The James River Improvement
is Attracting Attention

Hon. H. ID. Flood, member OF Con-
gress from the Tenth District, in dis
cussing the jams River improvement
situation some days ago In Washington,
said:
"At the coming session OF Con-
gress bill will probably be introduced
providing fora large appropriation to
develop theupper james river, from
Richmond to Clifton Forge.
1.-THE lower James is already navisa-
BILE and great deal has been done in
deepening and widening the channel
by the government: now we will try to
get something done for the upper
James.
"There is not the least doubt 10 my
mind" continued Mr.. Flood. that
such an undertaking would be OF the
greatest advantage to all the country
between Richmond and Clifton Forge
and would be the means OF increasing
the business of Richmond to large ex'
tent.
The distance from Clifton Forge to
Richmond is approximately 200 miles,
and if we could get appropriation from
Congress it would mean that all that
section would be put in touch with
Richmond, the capital OF the State,
and the center already Of large bust
ness in many lines.
This question was first Rgitateo
some years ago, and even at the time 1t
was easily sean what great advantage
the deepening and widening Of the
channel of the James river above
Richmond would be; 1t is even more
apparent now.
"When this matter is taken up we C
not intend at all to stop work that ha'
been and is still going on belog Rich

do with it directly as it Is not In NJ.

,,u ms uvcas,vn sne saw more ro-
nance in the affair. He was ralrIv
good looking man. He was . victim or
Injustice. He had passed through
GREAT peril. He was what she had a.
ways hungered to behOld-a hero.
Miss Gussie fingered for an hour aud
then left the things she had brought,
taking her departure to reappear next
day and the next and the next. In
brief, her visits We're made daily FOR
the next seven days. and each day she
saw that her bad man was making All
Improvement. On the last day she
found him waiting at the plum trees.
He had furnished himself up as best
he could and looked more presentable.
His lameness was about gone, and the
saddle from his horse was on the
ground beside him.
my dear young lady" he began, at
goes without saying that my gratitude
Is unbounded Did l promise not to
make you proposal Of marriage"
IL don't remember" prevaricated
the girl, as red flush crossed her face.
II think l did. and I will stick to
my promise. 1t was to be romance
and nothing beyond. No love, no mat
riruony-just romance I might make
an exception in your case, however,
"Please don't. That is-what are you
doing with my saddle?'
Removing it to make room for mine.
There we have It. You see, have got
to borrow your horse. That will also
be included in the romance"
But object 1t Is not my horse"
"Sorry, my dear girl, but can't get
away without him, and if should be
taken our little romance would be
spoiled For all your kindness thank
you, and should we meet again under
different circumstances"-
Miss Gussie grabbed at the horse,
but the bad man was too quick for her.
He raised his hat and smiled as he
rode away, and she sat down on
stone and cried. She was still crying
when the sheriff and four men came
galloping up and plunged down into
the gorge. They were back In Ave
minutes. and the official asked:
Young woman, have you seen any
thing Of a man around here this morn
ing?"
"He rode off on my horse half an
hour ago." replied the girl.
$50 he lived through it?"
"But the men had no right to jump
his claim when he was ILL.," said Miss
Gussie in spirited way.
Jump his claim! Do you know
who the Teller is?'
"N-not exactly, but he was very
nice. He had to take my horse to get
away from YOU"
Hear her talking. That Teller is
Bob Hill, the most notorious highway
robber in four states. You must have
nursed him up and helped him to va
moose, and I don't know but what
shall have to hold you as accessory"
That evening it was bright moon
light. and Miss Gussie was sitting
well away from the camp watching
the last rays of twilight fade into
night. BY and by young Mr.. Caswell
came over and took her hand and said:
"My dear Gussie, the fourth occa-
sion has arrived. / know I am not 1T
to lick up yo1r tracks in the dust,
but
"You can consider that we are en-
gagged" said the girl as she thought
how mean it was Of the stranger not
to have made her at least tiny pro-
posal before he gobbled her horse aud
rode away Just enough OF proposal
to enable her to brag about it among
the other incidents of camping out.

Handy HOme-Made Tool.

All growers of blackberries and rasp-

agreeable jobs Of the season is the cut

some kind so arranged that the operat-

tool illustrated may be readily made by
any handy man, and will do the work
required quite as effectually as a more
expensive tool.

Poultry.

A careful observer Of poultry needs
no better sign of its condition than to
watch the comb. A bright red comb
shows that the hen or male Is healthy
and vigorous, and If hen, she will
probably be good layer After the
egg supply has failed the comb will
generally lose its color. In cold wealth
er fowls with large combs must have
extra warm quarters as they are very
easily frozen. 1t Is frozen combs more
often than anything else that makes
Leghorns ana Minorcas poor winter
layers. AS their names imply, they are
natives Of warm climates, as, indeed,
most fowls are. They very rarely get
into as warm quarters in winter as
they could find anywhere in the coun-
tries where they had their original
home.

Beans,

Beans" Is the title of a recent farm
ers' bulletin, by Professor Corbett, the
well-known horticulturist of the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Beans belong to one Of the most impor-
tant families Of economic plants with
which man has to deal-that of le-
gumes. The bean furnishes food for
both man and and beast, and at the
same time increases the fertility of
the soil. 1t Is, therefore, an impor-
tant crop, both in farm rotation and
in market garden work. The new, bull
letin treats fairly Of Its cultivation,
care and use.
Professor Wianeko, Of Purdue Expe-
riment Station, has just issued an in
teresting bulletin on Soy beans, COW
peas and other forage crops. The cul-
ture of COW peas and soy beans Is be-
coming important with many farmers,
as they make good forage crops and at
the same time add fertility to the soil.
They belong to the legumes, and the
cost Of producing is about the same as
for corn, while their food value COM
pares very favorably with corn. Sew
eral other classes Of forage plants are
described in the bulletin.

A Peaceful Bee.

honey close at hand, while at the same
time the bees will inculcate their les
son of industry, are possibility, for
the Department Of Agriculture has sue
ceeded in importing from abroad what
may be termed a peaceful bee, which
finds our tickle climate to Its liking.
The newcomer is known as the Cau-
caslan bee. The name Is derived from
its native locality, and is emphasized
by habits of life which rank 1t distinct
ly as the white mans bee, 1t is civil
lied, dlgnified and high-toned. 1t
rushes with reluctance into anything
that smacks Of warfare, having, in
place Of the belligerent instincts Of
others of Its class, predispositlon to
arbitration.

Fruit from Seed.

1t Is doubtful If there is any kind Of
fruit that will come strictly true to va
rlety when grown from seed, as there
Is tendency to deviate from the orig
inal. One may secure something supe-
rior or the fruit may revert back to
some undesirable kind. 1t is a slow
and uncertain process. Chestnuts may
be grated when year old. The nuts
are usually placed in the ground in
rows, 6 inches deep, early In the spring
or late in the fall, hilling over them If
in the fall, and uncovering in the
spring. They are very unreliable in
terminating and prefer a sandy loan.
The European varieties are larger than
the native. The native chestnuts vary
greatly, no two trees producing nuts
exactly alike in size, flavor, etc. The
foreign varieties are grated on the
American stocks Trees grown from
American nuts can not be depended
upon for quality Of product.

Shredded stover

For winter feeding of stock animals
this makes one Of the finest feeds on
the farm. The modern husking and
shredding machinery does excellent
work, and its man-eating proclivities
have been largely eliminated. An or
dlnary threshing machine can be made
to do good shredding, but the grain Is
not left In the best condition. The
greatest drawback in the use Of both
husker and thresher is that they re-
quire large force of men and teams,
hence the work Is quite expensive.
Perhaps the cheapest corn husking Is
done with the little old husking peg.
But 1t Is almost impossible to feed long
stover without considerable waste, and
the refuse stalks are a nuisance when
1t comes to handling the manure. These
difficulties may be overcome by running
the handhusked stover through a COM
mon cutter and shredder. This work
can usually be done without employing
much, If any outside help. In case ev-
erything Is hired, the cost of the work,
added to that of hand-husking and put
ting Of the corn and stover in crib and
NOW or stack may equal or even exceed
the expense Of machine husking and
shredding. This is a point for each to
decide from his own tandpolnt.-Agrl-
cultural Epitomist.
