Creamery Notes.

a letter from the State Dairy
Commissioner contains the following
comment: q believe your creamery
is doing as well, if not better, than
any other creamery in the State to-
cay"
Town patrons of the creamery
dur'4g the month of March fur
nished more than a hundred pounds
OF butterfat. Mr.. Joe Wilkes fur
RiSncd 1876 pounds, Mr.. c. J. Le-
Stourgeon III pounds. Mr. T. K.
Benton 131 pounds, Howard e. Har-
risOn .06. Three other patrons fur
nisst': over 80 pounds each. When
it Is remembered that all of these.
with the exception of Mr.. Wilkes,
were not in the business a year ago
it can be seen how rapid has been
the growth of the creamery. Anoth-
er proof of its growth is shown by
the fact that since last August the
number or COWS on the north side.
of the Appomattox available for the
creamery has increased from seventy
to one hundred and sixty. And this
increase of over tour thousand dol
lars worth of COWS in the counties
of Cumberland and Buckingham
alone has been made on the farms Il
substantial farmers-men able to
are for and feed COWS. and add to
their stock
1t may be remembered that seven
ty of these cows were purchased
through the creamery.
Messrs. Willis Warner. c. G.
of Buckingham. Charles
Semrock. of Prince Edward, and
R. G. Garnett, of Sunny Side are
new patrons Of the creamery.

Calf With Two Perfect Heads Born
in Sunny Side.

A calf with two perfect heads was
born few days ago on the dairy
farm of J. NJ Blanton, Sunny Side.
Cumberland county.
Dairl man Blanton brought the
freak to Richmond and exhibited it
10 Health Chief Leay. Pictures of
1t were taken in the Photographic
studio of the health department.
The dairyman said he killed the
freak calf in order to save the COW.
You made a bad mistake" the
health chief told him. you should
have killed the COW to save the
calf, which would have been many
times of greater value as a freak
than the cow as a milk-giver will
be to you"
Darn a farmer anyhow" eja,u-
lated Mr.. Blanton, as the truth of
the health chiefs statement dawned
upon nhim.-RichmOnd News-Leader.
Old Cumberland is on a boom. 1t
is producing chickens with four legs
and calves with two heads, and
fried chicken is good and calf head
stew is fine.

HOgShead Making.

1t is interesting to watch the
making of hogsheads in the fac
tories on Third street. They are
turning out now some fifty each day
and the demand is equal to the
supply We notice that it takes two
men to make a hogshead. No ma
chinery as yet for putting a hoop
around a hogshead. and one has to
"hold while the other ties" We
have been wondering If the time will
ever come in the history of the
world, when one of them we'll fill
ed with tobacco will be carried
across the sea in an air ship? We
are not going to put a limit upon
the ingenuity of man. He is a dar-
ing animal, and what next remains
to be seen. cannot be even imagined.

MEETING OF B1ARD OF TRADE.
ATTENDANCE SMALL But RE-
SUITS LARGE.
The Overall Factory Seems To BE
Assured.

At a meeting of the Farmville
Board of Trade, which was held in
the court room on last Friday eve
ming, but one subject was up for
consideration, and that one the
overall factory. In brief this is the
situation. An owner and operator Of
such factory, now located in Rich
wood, Ohio. wishes to remove the
plant to Virginia and after looking
over the situation seems 70 prefer
Farmville as the center of his ope-
rations. His plant is valued at sew
enteen thousand and five hundred
dollars, is in full work and with or
ders largely more than can be filled.
This plant Mr. Mead, for that Is
tbe owners name, proposes to bring
to Farmville and increase his force
to one hundred operatives provid-
ed the citizens Of the town will sub
scribe to thirteen thousand dollars
of the stock. And this, as we are
advised. is to be preferred stock.
Leading business men have the
matter in hand and on their hearts, 4
and we feel that there is go in the
scheme. Before the meeting adjourn
ed some ten thousand of the stock
had been subscribed to and no doubt
the whole will be readily taken il
It has not already been taken. To
buy thirty thousand plant for
a thirteen thousand investment
strikes the business man as a good
bargain, and this is what is propos-
ed to be done
The Herald has long been hoping
for a larger pay roll for Farmville,
and with one hundred operatives at
work in this factory a decided move
On that line will have been made.
We are told that one citizen of
Lynchburg was ready TO take the
whole Of the stock Farmvlle is ask
I'd to buy. and the thing that in
iuces the owner to prefer Farm
Vile rather than Lynchburg is the ,
act that he believes the labor may ,
De more certainly secured here and
It cheaper rates We have been ad-
Used that the old knitting building ,
AN be readily converted into such ,
hape as to meet the wants of the d,
lew industry. and fortunate is it ,
hat we have such nucleus around
which to rally. Mr. J. Taylor Thomp- ,
on has personally inspected the
ohio property and is satisfied with
What he saw and heard o.

Public Educational Meeting.

There will be an educational meet
ing of the Board of Trade in the
Courthouse at $50 o'clock Tues
day evening, April 18th. The meet
ing is called with a view to ascer-
tanning the sentiments of the cti-
zens of Farmville in regard to their
public school system present and
future.
Steps are contemplated which, if
they meet with the approval of the
patrons of the schools, will mater
tally affect the future educational
interests of the town. To that end
every person interested in the edu-
cation of the youth of Farmville
should be on hand TO participate in
the deliberations. Don't let trifles
keep you away, for the topic for
consideration is one of greatest i'm
portance and no man can afford to
let another represent him. Come
yourself and bring others with you.

Luxuriant Red Top Glover.

On last Monday, the 11th, Mr.
T. H. Bruce brought to the Herald
office a bunch of red top clover
which measured fifteen inches. That
is tall for this season of the year,
and when we remember that the
spring has been dry. He used only
acid phosphate, three hundred
pounds to the acre upon thin
land. But now that he has such a
stand of clover it will be no longer
thin, for yielding a full crop of clo-
yer it can be made to bear anything
that Southside Virginia soil can be
made to bring forth. Grass and the
victory is won, without grass the
same old story is repeated.
