CIRCUS TIME AGAIN.
SELLS-FLOTO MUCH BIGGER

The Sells-Floto aggregation of CO.
lossal and renowned features will be
in Pendleton, June 25. Acrobats from
the Old World and the new; giants,
pigmies, beasts of the widest forests
of the world; strange birds and dar-
ing bareback riders will all be here.
Circus day comes around about
right. A fellow gets old during the
winter. Notes fall due; things must
be attended to; life looks serious any
way one looks at it. A thousand
things press down upon the mind until
the head aches. Wrinkles grow deep
during the winter, and the hair bor-
rows tinge from the frosts. It's diff
ferent circus day. You're a boy
again-or ought to be.

FARMERS INSTITUTE.
SMALL ATTENDANCE But MEETING OF
GREAT INTEREST.
Practical Talk on Practical Subjects.

Owing to the TACT that the court
room repairs had not been finished
the Farmers Institute, which met
here on last Wednesday, was held in
the opera house. The attendance
much to our surprise, was small and
those farmers who failed TO attend
denied themselves a great privilege,
and neglected to take advantage of a
fine opportunity for self up-lift in the
noble profession which they have
adopted for their life work
Mr.. f. T. Bondurant was the first
speaker, and having tobacco as his
theme was at home with it and dealt
with it in his own strong and mastery
way. He reviewed the history Of
the winsome weed from the begin
ming, and emphasized the fact that it
had long been and still was the money
crop of this section Of Virginia, at
the same time urged upon brother
farmers the duty of raising other
crops such as hay, corn, &c, not
only in sufficient quantity for home
use but for the home market as well.
He was followed by Mr. T. o. San
dy, a prince among the farmers Of
Southside Virginia, who discussed the
possibilities Of our lands. In quiet
but impressive manner Mr.. Sandy
told of the increase in the value of
our lands, of what the boys were do
ing as corn growers, one OF them
making I'D bushels to the acre, an
other ll5. another 100 and still anoth-
er lO5, Of the necessity Of selecting
good seed corn. that is grains with
heart in them, and then how to make
the most corn to the acre. Crimson
clover is the key to the situation.
The address was OF the highest order
of excellence and our regret is that
the room wasn't crowded with farm
ers.
The last speaker was Mr.. j. 5.
Thomas, who moved the audience to
genuine enthusiasm as he told in
graphic and glowing words what the
dairy COW can be made to produce.
We repeat that the meeting was one
of unusual interest and value and at
least 500 farmers should have been
present.
