everything was in order. The flags of
our nation were unfurled to the breeze.
Brothers Harry Moore and Olen Fallin

Percival with his launch towed the
lighter to the desired point. But one
of the best trips TO Sandy Point was
with Bro. A. l.. Hogan on the launch

POULTRY FOOD LAW
WILL BE ENFORCED.

Virginia merchants who have on hand
continental stock and poultry foods for
which no license to sell in this State
has been obtained, are being urged To
dispose of it before September II, when
the new law will be Put into effect. The
State Dairy and Food Commission does
not desire TO see these merchants lose.
but it is making preparations to enforce
the law.
The law, which was passed by the
Legislature at its last session, is very
comprehensive in its provisions. AS a
prerequisite to the sale of continental
stock andtpOultry food and powders in
tended for live stock. poultry, swine or
sheep. an annual license fee of $40 is
required. This fee must be paid to the
Dairy and Food Commissioner on or
before January of each year.
1t was with the idea of protecting
merchants from loss that the law was
passed with a proviso suspending its
operation for six months. 1t is realized
that some of the preparations are not
licensed under the old, and will not be
licensed under the new law. Penalties
will be enforced for the sale of such
food or powder after September II.

State. These things were accomplished
under his administration and by his per-
sistent, intelligent and never-tiring
work: High schools of the State in
creased from "a to $50; new school
houses built at a cost of So, 200, 600: ag-
ricultural and normal training schools
established in each of the Congressional
districts; State department of dairy
and food inspection established: in
creased appropriations for the develop
ment of the fruit industry; State Board
of Health created; State Highway De-
partment established; State Geological
Survey created; colony for epileptics
provided for; State Board of Charities
and Correction established; increased
pensions for Confederate veterans urged
and secured; jamestown Exposition
promoted, and many other things of
practical value to the Commonwealth
advocated and accomplished through his
constructive work.
This is record of which the new
Senator may well feel proud, and it is
because of what he has achieved by his
abundant labors that the people of the
State expect good work from him at
Washington. He will succeed one of
the foremost men of the South, and fol
lowing his example in all that touches
the life and character of this part of
the country, he will prove himself wor-

REGULARITY OF FISH MIGRATION,

The regularity with which fish migra.
tions occur is very nearly miraculous.
One such migration is the occasion OF
an annual holiday and feast at Samoa.
On certain day in October there ap.
pear off the island tremendous shoals
of small but very delicious fish, resemb.
ling whitebait. The still waters of the
lagoon are alive with the tiny creatures.
The shoals take about As hours to pass:
then they are gone and are seen nc
more until the same day in the follow
ing year.
The Mediterranean funny is almost
equally regular in it's movements. The
Spanish fishermen know to day when
TO post the lookout on the high cliffs
above the Mediterranean, and the sen
tries are rarely on duty for more than
4S hours before the blue waters foam
under the rush of the great silver mon
sters. Then, for two or three davs. il
is one tremendous killing. and by the end
of that time the men have made their liv-
ing for at least six months to come.
The oily pilchard that forms the year
ly prize of our Cornish fishermen. is
not quite so regular in it's migrations.
but. like the herring, it appears about
the same date, year after year.

other in October. They run up as far
as Giurgevo. a distance of 1870 miles
never farther. Why they should enter
the muddy Danube no one knows. 1t
is not for spawning purposes. Nor can
any one tell what becomes OF the shoals
at other times. They are believed to
come right up from the Mediterranean.
One thing is certain-they do not live
in the Black sea. for accept in the
shadows along the coast, the Black
sea is almost devoid of fish life.
In the same way, it is not known
what becomes of salmon when they
take their annual holiday in salt water.
lhey SIMPLY vanish into the ocean, and
1t is very seldom indeed that one is ever
caught in sea fisherman's net.
Whales travel enormous distances.
In eight weeks they have been known
to cover over 5000 miles.
Eels are the most extraordinary fish.
Every eel once in its life migrates to
the deep ocean. and there, safe below
the reach of nets or lines or any other
enemies, spawns. There are two an
nual runs" of eels-one in April, one
in October. EeIs always move at
night, and, unlike other fish, always
swim with the current. Men who net
cells on the muddy east coast rivers
know exactly when the fish will run,
and say that it is always on a moonless
night. London Week Ending.

1.-THE ROSARY OF MY. YEARS. 81

Some reckon their age by years,
Some measure their life by art,
But some tell their days by the flow of
their tears,
And their life by the means of their
heart.
The dials of earth may show
The length, not the depth, of years
Few or many may come, few or many
may go;
But our time is best measured by tears.
Ah! not by the silver gray
That creeps through the sunny hair,
And not by the scenes we pass on our
way
And not by the burrows the finger of care
In forehead and face have made;
Not so do We count our years:
Not by the sun of the earth-hut the
shade
OF our souls and the fall of our tears.
For the young are ofttimes DID,
Though their brow be bright and fair,
While their blood beats warm, their
hearts lie cold
O'er them the springtime-bu winter
is there.
And the old are ofttimes young,
When their hair is thin and white;
And they sing in age as i'm youth they
sung,
And they laugh, for their cross was light
But by bead and bead | tell
The rosary of my years,
From a cross to crown they lead
tbs well!
And they are blessed with blessing of
tears.
Better a day of strife
Then century of sleep;
Give me instead of long stream of life
The tempest and tears of the deep.
A thousand years may foam
On the pillows of all the years;
But never the foam brings the brave
bark home
1t reaches the haven through tears.
Father Ryan.

MUCH LESS FEVER THAN LAST YEAR

Typhoid fever is claiming a much
smaller toll in Virginia this year than
it did last year, according to reports of
the State Health Department. Physi-
clans in rural Virginia reported a total
of 1904 cases of typhoid during the
month of July. 1909. while during last
month they reported only 1927 cases,
showing decline of / .157 in the total
number of cases.
This decrease in the amount of fever
is considered by health officers to be the
greatest victory yet gained for better
health in the country districts. A sta
tistician expressed his opinion that the
net saving to the State by thisdecrease
in the amount of typhoid would not be
less than six hundred thousand dollars
to say nothing of the sorrow and death
averted.
When asked how he accounted for
the decrease in the cases of typhoid
the State Health Commissioner said:
1T is not impossible that there may be
some obscure climatic influence with
which we are not familiar, but gener-
ally speaking, it is safe to say that the
better education of the people regard
ing the disease is responsible for the
difference. We have striven to give
them full information as to the spread
of typhoid, and have told them that
where sewerage is cared for, flies kept
from the house. proper precautions
taken and good water secured, there is
little danger of typhoid. The people
of the State. acting on this informa-
tion. have done the rest. AS they see
the great advantages already gained,
they can be counted on to still further
reduce the amount of disease. The field
inspectors of the Department are ready
to investigate Immediately any epidemic
of typhoid that appears and can be
called on at any time.''
