Show Results.
Along the entire route of the insti-
tutes literature will be furnished by
Commissioner Koiner, showing how
the agricultural interests of the State
have been furthered in recent years
by the adoption of better and more
scientific methods.
Acting In harmony with the Nir-
GINA state experiment station and the
United States department of agricu!-
ture. the State department. under
Commissioner Koiner. has been able
to show the most surprising results
so surprising as to be utterly unbe-
lievable but for the indisputable fig
urss contained in the records of the
Office.
With an annual appropriation of
only $4,000 Mr.. Koiner began his
campaign for agricultural betterment.
Since that time by actual results at
tanned he has been awarded larger
appropriations. until the annual in
come of the department Is now s40.-
600, but In this time the agricultural
income of the State has been inereas-
ed as many millions
The Institutes We're begun about
aight years ago. The first year
scarcely a dozen were held. This
year the total numter will reach the
two-hundred mark, and many more
lecturers and demonstrators will be
with the commissioner in his tour OF
the State.
The corn crop in Nirginian has heeg
increased in value from sic 100000,
in 1900, to over $4,000 The
famous King Corn movement was
begun in 1908, by the department
its annual handbook containing on
its cover the phrase Corn is King"
ms was lmmeolately taken up, and
became the slogan OF the farmers.
Demonstration stations were started.
boys clubs organized. and aided by
the institutes working with the vir-
ginia state experiment station and the
federal department OF agriculture,
the corn crop has been more than
doubled.
Increased Values.
In the last decade the State depart
ment has sent out approximately $780,
900 letters, besides it's regular pub
locations. which are now mailed to
thousands OF State farmers.
The value OF this campaign is
shown by the fact that trucking has
increased 500 per cent; fruit growing,
$50 per cent; the hay crop. 100 per
cent: live stock, so per cent. while
the corn crop has increased as indi-
Gated above.
Statistics recently compiled by the
commissioner show that one county

General Hitchcock has been detached
from duty practically as head Of the
postofice department, and he has been
assigned to take charge of the coming

this will lead to his resignation from

The Cairnrona sailed Wednesday

By great good luck the steamers Up

when the Cairnrona caught fire. They

passengers and landed them here.
Several of the first class passengers
and American cattlemen gave thrilling
details Of the accident. A number of
women, with children in their arms,
were sitting on hatch, when sudden

all parts of the deck. The hatch was
blown to fragments.

A terrible panic ensued, the emf

and down, screaming and wringing
their hands. Their terror was In

which poured from the burning hold.
