1t is point Il cit that in these
same nine Years the Southern
States have sent North more than
a fifth OF one billion dollars.
Many millions of dollars are sent
from the State Of Virginia every
year to the North for insurance
premiums. Some of these millions
go across the ocean To Liverpool
and London.
The great wonder is that the
people of the South do not patron
ize home companies with their
insurance. If there are States or
communities without insurance
companies it would be an easy
matter to form them.
If the people of the North can get
a quarter of billion dollars of
southern money for insurance in
less than a decade, why cannot the
Southern States establish their own
companies and by patronizing them
keep these hundreds of millions of
dollars at homel
There can be no negative answer.
Keep the millions at home and
let them make more millions in
stead of sending them North TO
millionaires. Roanoke Times.

Fine Coal Bins Here.

PullIam Brothers have recently
completed for the Berryville Ice
Company long row of the finest
coal bins ever seen by our people.
aud the company now has storage
capacity for at least 500 tons of
coal.
Manager W. +. Lewis. in talk
ing to the COURIER man, said:
We will handle all the standard
commercial grades of coal, from
the highest to the lowest. and our
price to consumers will be as low
as it is possible to sell the coal.
During the summer months we will,
in all probability, be able to sell
coal at lower rate than during
the winter. and those who desire
to give in their orders now can see
me for rates.
The company has also installed
a fine Jones scale, which will be
approached on each side by a
macadam roadway. Coming from
the bins with II load the driver
will take the wagon upon the scale,
weigh it, and then drive out toward
the home of the customer.
The new we'll was sunk to depth
of over 100 feet and fine stream
of water was secured. which will
be used upon the condensers at the
plant. The ice will be frozen
from tue pure mountain water,
filtered and sterilized. The ice so
far made at the plant has been
extremely clear and pure, and
everyone is pleased with the pro-
duct being delivered to them each
day.
Everything being installed at the
Ice Plant is the best 10 be purchas-
ed. Tne coal bins are high and dry
above ground. tightly rrofed, and
all the c.i'.l will be clean all times.
