east of dead centre OF Lunenburg
county, and stands on ridge between
Flat Rock Creek two niles south, and
Nottoway River four miles to the
north. Water that falls In the village
runs part into the creek on one side,
and part in the river on the other. The
natural drainage is therefore splendid.
Three religious denominations are rep
resented here. and the town has a
splendid public school occupying
$1,000 building, and conducted by three
trained teachers. who have i'll their
charge sixty regular pupils.
Such is brief outline of the village
of Thinking of to-day And now what
OF the town or little city of Kenbridge
of the early future? Much of It's fate
is perhaps wrapped UP In the rich lands
and magnificent forests OF the triangle
have outlined, and in considering the
destiny of the coming chief city OF old
Lunenburg county the triangle must
needs be studied little more.

Rich TOBACCO Lands.

Within the triangle, as before stated,
are the rich and heavily tinbered lands
of about all of tie large county of
Lunenburg and considerable portions
of Nottoway. Brunswick and Mecklen-
burg counties, while Charlotte and
Prince Edward touch it on the west,
and the peanut lands of Sussex are in
easy reach on the east.
In this territory may be found some
of the best and most varied tobacco
lands in the State. Those who are
familiar with tobacco culture in Vir-
ginia are aware that these lands pro-
duce in abundance the dark and light
red long tobacco, so much sought after
by English and German manufacturers
and dealers, while the bright red filters
ard wrappers that are fluc-cured for
| this consumption OF domestic manu-
| facturers are grown in large quanti-
| ties, and bring prices that make their
! culturl very profitable. A large part
| of the territory Is OF that peculiar soil
| which makes the bright yellow wrap
| pers, filters smokers and cutters to
perfection. For the last named grades
! this triangle cannot be beaten any
where on the earth.
Grain. Grasses and Vegetables.
The bottoms on the Mehcrrin and

both directions through the territory
are regarded as nong the best corn

We cannot set prices aud maintain

Organizing only affords the oppor-
