MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK.

L-<A-z4@zh-->A==4--= -A---A---A--4A-=A-=J
On every hand the remark is heard
that more people have been at Mt.
Lake Park this season than in any
other year. The crowded condition of
the hotels and cottages has given rise
to the suggestion that another hotel is
a crying necessity. The congestion of
summer people at the Park this year
has resulted IN the suggestion that the
Mt. Lake Hotel should be enlarged by
the addition of hundred room, fifty of
which should have private baths. If
this is not found practicable, a Wheel
ing party has come forward with the
proposition that a lease or purchase
from the Association be made of an
eligible site and a new and up-to-date
summer hotel be erected thereon. We
also understand that some other West
Virginians are getting interested in the
project. Judging from the large num-
Der of people that could not be accom-
modated at the Mt. Lake Hotel this
season, the time is at hand either for
the enlargement and modernization of
the Mt Lake Hotel or the erection of
new hotel. Rooms with private bath
have long been needed, and the planning
Of the golf links for 1911 emphasizes
that need.
The Park is by no means deserted by
our summer resident, but many are still
lingering with US, enjoying the delight
fui fall weather.

FARMING FOR PROFIT,
Augusta Farmer Who Is Doing Things
That Are Worth Talking About.

Such reports as T.. J. Hatch of Au-
gusta brings of farming experiments
and experiences act as "a call Of the
wild" on the average city man. Thurs
day forenoon he came to the Journal
office with marvellous exhibits of sun
flowers and Of corn. One sunf1ower
measured Is feet, inches in height.
with head II inches in diameter An
other sunfiower head measured -
inches across the seed surface and was
a bout 60 inches in circumference.
Mr.. Hatch considers the sunfiower a
most profitable crop. He says cows
prefer the green leaves and heads af-
ter the seeds have been picked out by a
hen, to green corn fodder Then, again,
he utilizcs the stalks for beanpoles.
SunnOwer stalks raised in 1908 We're
used for beanpoles in the seasons of
1909 and 1910. Moreover. he declares
that sunflowers planted very early and
later pole beans planted around them,
serve as living poles and keep ahead
of the beans in growth.
Mr.. Hatch this year raised something
over half an acre of 90-day Monarch
sweet corn. One stalk which he
brought to the office had four perfect
ly developed and handsome ears. The
second had three ears. Four of these
seven ears were of very large size.
