100000 Land Deal.

One of the biggest land deals
ever consummated in this section
was completed last week by Mr.. ].
w. Peters, of this city, by which
s. W. Patterson, of Vivian, becomes
the owner of the valuable coal prop
critics near Williamson, lying for
the most part on Sycamore creek,
and owned formerly by ]. w. Riley,
the Lawson heirs, and Richard
Williamson. The deal involves the
transfer of about 500, 900, and is,
we understand, practically cash
transaction. Mr.. Patterson, who al
ready owns some Williamson prop
erty, Is one of the most active and
energetic among the operators in
the Pocahontas field. He resides at
Vivian, and though not very well
known here generally, is frequent
visitor to our city.
The coal in these tracts is of ex-
cellent quality and easy of access.
1t is also a six foot seam, which
will be very profitable to work.
Mr.. Patterson will proceed just
as soon as practicable to the work
of installing a coal mining plant up
on his new holdings. This opera.
ton in such close proximity to Will.
hanson will necessarily be very
beneficial to business here, and will
give employment to a large force
of men. The news therefore will
be very welcome in this section.
The addition of another 800, 00C
to the amount OF money in circula,
ton here must of necessity be Of
considerable assistance in the loca
financial world. Taken from any
standpoint, this transaction is one
of which we may all well be glad

news OF The FARM.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Farm improvements.

The farmer should give more con-
sideration to his barns and fences,
to his stable or dairy, to all the
surroundings of farm life.
A stitch in time saves nine; re-
pairs save labor and expense; a
gate hinge out Of order indicts the
farmers before every visitor, ..
Keep everything in working Or
der; it pays. Do not put off until
tomorrow repairs to the roof or
paint on the porch. or the swing
ing shutters. You labor for a home,
and it is foolish to let go to ruin
the things your labor in the field
has paid for.
There is vast difference in the
way farms are kept. You notice it
as you drive along the road. After
the war the South was poverty
stricken, and it had to do the best
1t could, spending only for the ac-
tual necessities of life.
Every year should see every farm
in better condition. Watch your
roof, and when you repair it, do it
well, with the best material.
Paint has a twofold mission; 1t
preserves the thing painted and it
gives an air of neatness which is a
great part Of beauty to whatever it
touches.
This expenditure is not extrava-
gance; it is real economy. Get good
implements. Get good tools. Get the
best seed Keep the roof whole. If
it is worn out, put new roof on
before the rains beat into the house
and injure goods worth more than
the roof.

Eggs And Poultry.

1t is predicted from time to time
that the limit for prices on eggs
and poultry would soon be reached.
The demand, however, continues to
exceed the supply, and each sea-
sons prices surpass those of the
preceding year. ..... .
The consumption of poultry and
eggs is probably double of twenty
years ago. The public is growing
more discriminating, however, and
now demands the very best eggs
and poultry. No half starved fowls
nor filthy eggs are wanted, while
first-class stock is in great demand
and at profitable prices.
The day of the mongrel has pass
ed and those who expect to reap
the benefit of high prices must
keep pure breeds. .... ...

after the corn is gathered. When
drilling for this purpose the later
kind are best.
Three pecks to the acre for this
work. Peas should be sown not
over three inches deep and the soil
must be dry and warm.
When drilling for hay any after
culture aids very much in the yield.
When the peas begin to show
signs of ripening, by the pods and
foliage beginning to turn yellow, we

Let the vines remain as cut for
at least "a hours, to cause whiting,
and throw into small piles or cocks
to dry out thoroughly.
They should not be drawn in for
several days il the weather will al

II the trailing sort are planted
care must be taken in stacking that
good ventilation is given to prevent
mold.
good stand will yield from one
and one-half to two tons per acre.
In the north it is valuable
drought-resisting plant and will
grow where almost any other plants
would perish.
Many farmers save only seed
sufficient for their own use, as the
labor is tedious.
The pods are plucked by hand,
or when the bush sort is grown
the plant is pulled and stored away
until some convenient time when
they are threshed out with a fail
or by machine.
If the trailing sort are wanted
the vines are moved and treated as
above. Some wasteage occurs in
this method, but this can be utiliz-
ed in pasturing afterward.
Green COW pea hay is more ru-
tritious than red clover and con-
tains less dry matter for total
weight than any of the grasses or
clover
When planted for green manur-
ing it is advisable to turn hogs or
any stock in the fields about the
time the pods are ripening.
Hogs, especially young pigs, thrive
on the succulent growth and the
quality of the meat is very super
ior.
An acre of COW peas will pasture
IS or 20 hogs several weeks. The
worst drawback is the first cost of
the seed, but when once you have
started their growing you can save
seed at half of first cost.

Turkey Season.

This is the season for turkeys,
and we should remember that the
tall, lanky gobbler with no flesh on
his frame will not be the one which
the buyer will want The demand
is for well-fattened plump fowls,
with full breasts, nicely dressed and
delivered in prime condition.
Many otherwise good fowls are
spoiled in dressing and shipping,
There is much to look after in pre-
pairing turkeys for market. In the
first place turkeys should be fat,
and 1t will require not less than
thirty days to put them in that con-
dition. During the time of fatten.
ing turkeys must not be confined
but should be allowed their liberty
in the fields. They should be fed
morning and night all they will eat
Be careful that they have fresh wa.
ter and grit. Whole corn with al
occasional mixture of other grair
will produce the best results. Dc
not wait until the last week ant
then try to rush them. 1t takes
time to round out their bodies ant
give them plump full breast.

Randolph Bias. former Williamson
postmaster, for alleged contempt Of
of the Mingo Criminal Court, as ex-
pressed in comment on the Musick
trial published in the Bluefield Tel
egraph. II will be remembered
that Mr.. Bias was summoned by
special writ to appear before Judge
Sam2selle on the first day of the
present term To this writ Mr.. Bias
filed an injunction before Judge
Wilkinson, which injunction was
granted, stopping Judge Sampselle
from hearing the cause in its form
er shape. Then followed the in
dictment Mr.. Bias appeared before
the court last Saturday, with G. r.
c. Wiles as his attorney, and de-
murred to the indictment, then
moved to have same quashed. Both
motions were oyerruled by the
Judge, and the ex-postmaster there
upon plead not guilty. A contin-
uance of the case to the January
term was then granted on the re-
quest of the prosecuting attorney,
and Mr.. Bias thereupon gave bond
for his appearance at that time in
the sum of $500 with Alex Bishop
as surety.
The case is one that will attract
much interest, as it will open up
the graft" charges again in full,
and will doubtless be stoutly con-
tested both by Mr.. Bias and the
State.
