ney Barnes last fall adopted the in

liquor in Rumford Falls, and began in

fore Judge Savage at Auburn, in the

ing violated the injunction. County
Attorney Barnes appeared in behalf Of
the state, and Hon. VIM. Fl. Newell OF

by his tenants or lessees without his
having any knowledge of the business
which was transacted there, but on the
testimony of the officers Judge Savage
adjudged Tucker guilty of violating the
injunction, and gave him sentence of
ssyenty-five days in Jail at Auburn.

He was last seen alive on Jan. 10. Wal

In an address before the recent

up a road. As an effective and eco

depressions ia earth roads, especially
of clay nature. and keeping the

have advocated she use OF the road
drag, which Is extensively used in
many states. with excellent results. "

not been used as it should be, but
that wherever used the result has
been good. We have repeatedly

An extract from the United States
Statistical Report, copied In the an
nual report of the Commissioner and
State Board o. Agriculture and I'm
migration, shows Virginia to be the
wealthiest OF all of the States in The
South, with the exception OF Texas.
Nearly 1000 farms were purchased
in Virginia during the year 1907 10y
people from beyond our borders: the
population increased during the
same period Z per cent, which Is
more than any other Southern
State; the value of she principal
crops raised in Virginia during
1907 was approximately $1,000
600, and the value OF live stock
$6S. 900.
This is splendid showing for>the
Old Dominion and indicates that
the day is not far distant when she
will assume her rightiul position
among the Commonwealth OF the
nation.
