than drive until Z mile or more Of hills

this is the only one this week, and !
should have been out now had it nos

am to teach a Sunday school class
and preach three times tomorrow.
But / was talking about the snow.
We had one Sept. % about as deep as
to-day. Last week, On Wednesday,
the thermometer registered at II.
Our farmers have had very good
year. Cabbage, the medium Of clrcu-
lation in our town, truly meant green
backs Twenty-Five cars were shipped
from here in one day. Think of that
for a town of 1000 people! Both the
yield and prices were good. 1t could
be grown without loss for 25 cents per
hundred pounds. This year it aver
aged about one dollar per hundred.
Farmers made from $3.50 to 5000 an
acre. Some years though they lose,
and then cabbage rots in the fields.
Quantities Of potatoes (Irish), ruJa-
bagas, and livestock have been shipp-
ed. The export beef cattle in size
look like young elephants. 1t is not
unusual that they weigh 1900 pounds
each. Last Monday. l spent some
time about the hospital for the insane
at Marion. I have never seen finer
cattle, chickens and hogs. They had
only Holstein COWS, and some OF
them they told ne gave four gallons
at each milking, twice a day. They
had only two kinds of chickens, Plym-
orth Rocks and Leghorns. These
layed we'll only one egg day; they
now have about 5000 of them. Be-
sides houses full for brooding, and
many in lot for fattening. saw 48
in pen that would weigh about 400
pounds each. They had only Berk-
shires, and their brooding houses were
fixed up with steam heat.
This is hog killing time here and we
are enjoying it if the real hogs are
not.
Mrs. Ballentine has had busy sum-
ner. She has had 27 piano pupils,
and taugniss from s to 10 hours six days
in the week.

he from Leesville, s. O. AS many OF
your readers know, we expect to move
there in December. Nothing hinder

pleasant, and we leave only friends.
The Lord has blessed His work in our
hands. But we know we shall also

that He has something for Us to do
there.
All are well. Mrs. B. is out with

to respond to all invitations before

do.

VERY UNIQUE CAMPAIGN

United States senators. represent
ing the leading coal mining states
OF the country. will be present. The
governors invited To participate In
tie conference are Charles s. De-
neen. of Illinois; Edwin S. stuart.
II Pennsylvania: Edward w. Hoch.

ccuri: J. Frank Han'ey. OF Indiana;
Andrew l.. Harris. OF Ohio; VILLA

and A. Il. Wilson, OF Kentucky
Senator Knox probably will attend
some OF he sessions OF the con-
gress.
The purpose OF calling the gover-
nors OF the coal mining states to-
gether in con erence IS to have chem
agree upon uniform mining laws
VIII ch they can recommend to their
legislatures for adoption. The gov
ernment has installed a coal testing
laboratory at the arsena. in Pitts
burg. Investigat ng work is car
red on in connection with mining
reforms. The government will not
enact mining laws unless compelled
to do so by the failure OF states TO
pass adequate legislation. 1t Is ex-
pected that when the governors
meet here and confer, they will be
able to hit upon laws which will
apply to their separate states.
By meeting in Pittsburg they
have the advantage of examining
the only testing laboratory estab-
shed by the government, and at
the same time can meet with mem
bers of the mining congress who
have made study OF mining condi-
tions throughout the country. Con-
gress appropriated $15O,OOO for the
testing work being carried on in
p ttsburs
IL is expected that about 1000
persons will attend the sessions Of
the mining congress in Pttsburg.
