Many California Artists Achieve Success il
East by Using virle Methods Of The West
By Lucy B. Jerome

The number of California artists
who are winning recognition and
achieving success in the east and in
foreign centers seems to be steadily
increasing. Entering an untried field,
often as exponents of a virile and
vivid style OF newspaper or magazine
illustration, they bring to the work
something of the emotion, the vivacity
and wholeheartedness of the west
The viewpoint is different; the stand
ards equally high. perhaps along
widely differing lines. But the in
sight. the intuitive sense OF the fit
ting of text to illustration, the power
TO see below the surface of things. to
reproduce the subtle inner mystery

counting. no sacrifice too great to win
her smile, he will find her rewards

An example of the truth Of this
statement is found in the success Of
Gordon Ross as an illustrator Of tha
Dooley text in the New York SIN.
Never have illustrations been more de-
liciously real; never have they been
drawn with such abandon, penetration
and graceful humor. The high water
mark of Ross success as an ilIus-
traitor was reached when Peter Finley
Dunno himself declared that he had
never seen illustrations SO absolufeIy
hitting the text, so keen In their
diyination and expression of the au-
thors thought. 1t is seldom that
author and artist agree SO thoroughly
as this, but to those who remember
Ross work In Its inimitable wit,
gayety and penetrating charm will
know that praise such as this is but
his just need. As a further mark Of

FAIR AND FIRM LABOR SPEECH.

There is no trace of the damagogue
or of the trimmer and timeserver.
in Mr.. Bryan's Labor Day Speech
He does not fiatter the labor organ

upon their imperfections, upon
their human liability to error, and
TO be guided by opionions colored
by selfish interest and incomplete
information. just as the employers
of labor may err and be misguided.
lie temperately balances the faults
OF both employer and employee,
rebuking the tendency of the one
ID take undue advantage. and the
tendency of the other to resort to
violence. observing that the secur-
i,N nf our government is found in
tie fact that both, in their calmer
moments, will join in the enact
OF the laws which will restrain
them in moments of temptation.
In this there is firmness and dig
nifty. together With a spirit of uni
versal sympathy and justice. No
fair-minded man among either en-
ployers or employed can ask any
other attitude of the chief magis-
trate. The same firm but just
temper is found in his discussion
of trusts and unions, of the injunc-
ton issue, and of the party and
plaf form attitude towards it.

Taft's wild cry of alarm at the
Democratic proposal of jury trials
in injunction cases is particularly
effective. Ameasurc which passed
the republican United States Senate
in 1896 can hardly be consistently
denounced, at this date. as SO very
revolutionary and alarming, and q
Judge who has shown such decided
leaning against the JURY system is
hardly a fair critic.
AS Mr.. Bryan says all that is
sought is the substitution of trial
BY Jury for trial by judge when
the violation of the courts decree
must be established by evidence,
and as it is the Judges order which
tine accused must be charged with
violating, the propriety of the

Dates Of Seeding Winter Grains.

The time is at hand for fail seed
ing OF cereals in Virginia. The
date of seeding winter grains large
ly governs their ability to with
stand winter freezes, and il ais
affects the yield. Il circular on
this subject, written by T. b.
Hutcheson, has just been received
from the Virginia Agricultural
Experiment Station. The results
of four years experiments show
that winter wheat gives best re-
suits when seeded near the first OF
October, and that il gradually fails
off in yield when sown earlier or
later. Oats have yielded best when
sown by September 10Th, or even
earlier; rye and barley on LIST.
These results were secured in
Allegheny: Virginia; dates 10 t. | :
days later will give best results

obtained free by writing to Vir-
g.nia Agricultural Experiment
Station, Blacksburg, Virginia.

Virginia State Fair and Its Fine
Premiums.

lhe premium list OF the Virginia
State Fair is being widely distri-
buted. and copies can be obtained
by addressing, Mark r. Lloyd.
General Manager, Richmond, Va.
1t presents large and excellent
classification. The premiums have
been greatly increased over previ-
ousyearS, and amount to $50, 900. 90.
More than twO-thirds of this very
liberal sum will go to the farmers
of the State, the total premiums in
each of the several departments
being as follows: Cattle, Sc, 300;
Horses exhibition SO, 400; Swine,
1862; Sheep, 1885; Poultry,
3, 900; while nearly $4,000 will
be distributed among the exhibitors
in the other departments. The
race premiums amount to $II, 500
divided into SO purses.
n splendid feature is the offering
for county exhibits of farm pro-
ducts and fruit. The sum of 1926
has been set apart for the former,
to- be awarded for the best display
in each of the three divisions: a.,
the section west of the Blue Ridge:
(2), the Piedmont district; and, 81.
the Tidewater and Middle sections
of Virginia. The first premium is
$50, and the second S25. The
premiums for county exhibits of
fruitare 500 and $50, respectively,
to be awarded in two divisions.
with the Blue Ridge as the line.
There are more than one hundred

commercial exhibits of fruit. The
classes for the best acre yield of
hay and corn carry $50 first and

and the tobacco premiums are very
attractive, nearly $500 being
offered.

THE BOARD OF TRADE.

The attendance at the initial
meeting Of the Berryville Board
of Trade was very encouraging,
and the enthusiasm was deep
rooted.
Some of the things which the
Board of Trade will do well to pass
resolutions upon in the beginning
are
Favoring home trade;
Criticising those who send out
of Town for something which can
be secured here:
Placing the advantages and in
ducements offered by the Town
before outside capital in the shape
of attactive advertising matter;
Inviting any and all enterprises
to come to the Town for their
location, and, when it is necessary
to contribute to a fund to secure
Out-of-town enterprises, give gen
erously.
All of these things are proper
subjects for consideration 10y a
Board of Trade, and we have no
doubt will receive their prompt
and pointed approval.
1t is not impossible that the
newly organized Board of Trade
could help toward securing for the
Town an all night every night
electric street lighting service. 1t
would be a good investment.
If every man who has business
or property interests in this Town
will lend his aid to an advancement
and upbuilding of the town, there
is absolutely no limit to the ends
which we may attain.
You take personal pride in the
care of your own private enter
prise: why not take that same
pride in the welfare of the Town at
large! 1t will will mean greater
success for your individual affairs
If the Town generally is more
successful.
