ter season.
This great National Corn Exposition
will be grand roundup of all state
agricultural shows and agricultural
meetings. The name Corn Exposi.
ton" does not mean that only corn
will be shown, for all grains and
grasses, the prize winners only, at the
various shows, will be in competition
for the valuable national trophies.
More than thirty-five states will have
competitive exhibits. twenty-five
state agriculture colleges and expert.
ment stations will have scientific ex.
hibits, each demonstrating its most
advanced experimental work. These
exhibits, which will be in charge of e1.
pert demonstrators, will deal in prac.
tical way with nearly every phase of
the science of agriculture. For in.
stance, North Carolina will emphasize
the cotton industry-from the growing
plant to the manufactured article
with cotton gin and loom in actual op.
GRAFTON, while Illinois will especially
emphasize its soil work. Never before
in the history of the world has there
been such showing of results in agri-
culture, based on scientific investiga-
ton.
The federal department of agricul.
ture will be represented with its fam
GUS exhibit, which fills two large furni-
ture cars, and which has just been re-
turned from the international expOsi-
ton at Buenos Ayres.
Important among the many meet
ings, exhibits and other special fea-
lures of this greatest of agricultural
expOsitions may be mentioned the

families alike.
Special entertainment features Will
include two-ring winter circus, bano
concerts with vocal soloists and NOV
ing pictures.
Speakers of nationwide reputation
will deliver addresses daily on the Ma

Industry in tine State of
West Virginia Shows
Progress.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 27.-While
West Virginia stands third among the
states and territories of the United
States in the production of pottery,
being exceeded only by Ohio and New
Jersey, its standing as producer
of clay products as whole is only
tenth. These figures are given out
by the United States Geological Sur
vey and have just been made public
What is called white ware" and in
cludes general household ware cor
stitutes almost one-half of the total
Of all pottery products, and in the
production of this class of wares West
Virginia stands second, being ex-
ceeded only by Ohio. Sanitary waro
forms about twenty per cent of tho
value of all the pottery produced ana
West Virginia stands second in this
line, only being erceeded by New
Jersey. The total value OF all tbs
pottery produced in the United
States in 1910, according to the &c.
illogical Survey, was S3S,7s4,67S, and
West virginia's part Of this total was
$2,675,53O. Ohio produced more than
Sl4,000,00O in value and New Jersey
more than $S,O0OOOO. Pennsylvania
was close behind West Virginia with
product valued at s2.229.9SO.
While producing large part of the
pottery output of the country and
ranking third among the pottery
states, West Virginia ranks only as
twenty third among the brick and
tile producing states. But CHASING al
clay products together West Virginia
stands tenth.
The production and value of ths
clay products OF West Virginia fol
1910. as stated by the Geological Sur,
vey, were as follows: common brick
77.9ls,OOO, valued at $5OS,422, or al
average of 1888 per thousand; vitri,

For several years West virglni;

DECISION
Of the Supreme Court, on
Powers of Town to Con-
denim, is Important.

An interesting case was decided in
the supreme court yesterday when
1t was decided that the city of Rom.
ney had legal right to condemn
property owned just outside the city's
corporation limits, and which is own.
ed by Capt, John Baber White, o!
Charleston. The contention arose
when the officials of the city of Rom.
ney wanted to take portion OF a
farm owned by Mr.. White on which
is located a spring of sufficient
strength to supply the town with
water, Mr.. White, however, could no;
see why the spring, which was very
valuable to him, should be taken
away from him for the use of the
town and fought the case to the high.
est court. The court, however. de,
cided that the power of the corpora.
ton to condemn property beyond The
limits of the city is a legal one AMI
refused writ of prohibition to Mr.
White.
