SIlEAR SEASON Is ON,

Life and the verdict OF O Petl
jury have long been classed among
the most uncertain things, bu
many persons believe that the SUI
gar season deserves the distinction
and is entitled to the belt. Them
formation given out by the above
heading is true. but before this is,
sue of the paper is in the hands OF
our remote subscribers, the maple
sugar season, like Flannagan's
wreck, may be "off again, on again
gone again"
As most persons know, Highland
county leads in the production of
maple sugar and syrup. and no
doubt many of the uninitiated often
wonder why the output varies so
much from year to year, or why
little Highland doesn't just keep on
and turn out enough sugar and syr-
up to sw eeten the whole universe
and burst the big trust. No one
except the owner of a big camp,
who works it for all there is in it,
knows so we'll how absolutely un-
certain the business is, how depend
ent upon the whims and caprices
of the weather. No amount of pre-
paredness, foresight or good man
can materially effect the
Without the requisite
weather conditions, past and pres
ent, no matter how much "pent-
up" energy he may have, the camp
operator must expend it along 9TH
er lines. Even prayer cannot be
recommended, since the petition
would SAVIOR too much of sel6shness
or self-interest and rise no higher
than the smoke of the camp. All
he can do is to get ready about
and wait. Not knowing
how ''ready" to get, he generally
makes ample preparations, and if
the season prove very short, some
of the labor expended has to lay
over till the next season.
The industry is unique and inter-
esting, but very laborious and ex-
acting, and to appreciate this, one
has to be in a sugar-camp about the
time the frozen trees are being kiss
ed by the warm February sun and
famed by soft south wind. 1t
is then the camp-owner puts on the
fast feed and runs on high gear.
In view of the foregoing state
ments, no predictions can be. made
for the present season. 1t opened
auspiciously, however, and those
who were ready for the flow of sap
last week made good beginning.

Blue Grass Responds.

In Our issue of Jan. 13, Monte
reyan, over signature of Patron, I"
offered a $500 gold medal to the
best debater at the close of the
High Schools in Highland, and
called for additional offers as an
encouragement and incentive.
We are directed to say that a
friend of the schools, living on the
Blue Grass side, will add $1,000 to
this amount provided someone will
give another 500, making the to-
tai $4,000
This amount would provide sew
eral handsome medals, and other
"classes" could thus be included.
Who will come up with the need
ed five?

These facts from Leachman &
Edelin, Grafton, w. Va, will be
useful to you.
A customer painted his house
last time with the paint they were
selling then-they thought it first
rate; it cost them S cents gallon
more than Devoe-took I0 gallons.
They sold him I8 gallons of
Devoe for same house; he used
only II; returned z; saved about
$50.
If this is the way Devoe is go
ing to work, there oughtn't to be
much difficulty in selling it.

The other half is the wear. A
third half is the reasons for both
all paint goes further and wears
longer than part paint; true paint

the cost of painting, which goes by

Spublic Opinion s

Editor ReveilIe:
read an editorial in the Mag
nolia Gazette endorsing Mr.. Percy
Quinn of Pike county as a candi-
date for Congress from this district
to succeed our present able mem
Der, Mr.. VIM. A. Dickson. The
only recommendation Mr.. Quinn
seems to have is that he is from
the eastern part of the district and
from Pike county. No doubt but
that Mr.. Quinn would like to have
the job, and that he is hustler
and a man of ability. But why
make changer We are now as
ably represented as any District in
the state, and by a gentleman who
has already made good, and has
established a reputation and stand
ing with the national law makers
which puts him in a position to ac-
complish more for his people than
any new man they could select.
This thing of locality should cut
no figure in the selection of the
man to represent us. The only
test should be, "Is he honest, is
he faithful, is he true to the con-
stitution." Possessing these is all
that should be asked. And claim
that Mr.. Dickson can stand the
test, and that he should and will
be returned and kept there as long
as he proves as true to his constit.
uents as be has in the past.

receipts for the three days being
nearly $4oo. AS we stated las
week, the flower parade was very
fine, far excelling that of last year
The hog and cattle exhibits also
surpassed those of the 1910 fair
but the agricultural department
and some of the other departments
did not show up as well as they did
before. This is accounted for by
the fact that the fair just ended
was held a month earlier than the
one of last year. Many farmers
claimed that they were too busy
gathering their crops to prepare
exhibits. This objection will be
eliminated next year, for the asso.
citation has decided to hold the fair
directly following the state fair,
which will place the date about the
10th of November.
In addition to being instructive
and entertaining, the fair has
proved to be fine advertisement
for those with stock or articles for
sale, as many sales were made last
week. Mr.. Watt sold 100 of his
brooms and may sell his entire out
put because of the display he made,
and one hog raiser sold $50 worth
of pigs. Many other smaller sales
were made.
Next year there will be new tea-
lures added to the fair, and many
valuable premiums offered.
