RICH RESOURCES
The Land Of Canneries That
Bring in Piles of Good
Money.
ITS UNDEvELoPED WEALTH
When More Railroads Get There
Botetourt Will Be Immensely
Rich Country.
BY j. o. LusTER.

Fincastle. Va, September 23-No
county in the State of Virginia has
made more progress in agriculture than
Botetourt. The nices homes and large
barns and grainaries are excellent
signs of it's prosperity. The farms are
clean and well cultivated, and the land
shows high degree OF fertility. Many
of the Botetourt farmers have adopt
ed the modern plans of farming, and
instead eff drawing year after year
from the soil and inpoverishing it, they
are yearly adding TO its productiveness !:
consequently to-day the county's aver
age to the acre Is on par with
any county in the State. The apple
and peach crops on an average yield
100000 to 100000 annually. and 1t
is growing In this department yearly.
Boterourt county will produce on a
paying basis most anything raised in
coed (outside of the cities) any county
to canneries in actual operation. with
and these carry a value OF 100000
Peaches. apples, berries and corn are
also canned for the markets to largo
extent, adding $4,000 or more cases OF
goods to the tomato output. These
canneries created a necessity for tin
can factories. and two. which employ
largo numbers of workmen, have been
established in the county. They turn
ed out last year something near TO-
100000 cans a box-making plant
also became necessary to furnish cases

BY FRANK s. WooDsoN,
Industrial Editor.

A few days ago l was talking with
a railroad man, one connected with
the so-called industrial department. Of
a certain railway that makes it's liv-
ing and profits in the South (his office
is not in Richmond), and 1 asked him
why his road did not do more extern
sive advertising of the advantages OF
the splendid country through which
the line runs. He replied in about
these words: The people in the South
are always asking favors of the rail-
roads. and at the same time the Cor
poration Commissions and the Legis-
latures and the people generally are
harassing us and making laws and
rules and regulations to bleed u.s." etc
My friend Is mistaken. In this connec-
tion nobody Is asking any favors of the
railroads, but simply suggesting to
them good paying business. Nobody
in the South would benefit as much as
the railroads by the incoming of new
settlers to till the soil. the establish
ment of new industries to consume
and to sell and ship in manufactured
state the raw material and to enlarge
business and enrich the country gen.
orally. The Western roads have found
this profitable business. Constantly
we are getting statistics showing what
eASee sums VI HloheS the western
roads are spending along this line and
everybody knows they are not spend
ing III just for fun. or for the benefit
of the public, but rather for the profit
that comes to the roads.

ALL A|.ATCHING
IS PROFITABLE
Some Rules and Regulations in
Regard to Raising Broilers
in Autumn.
BY WALTER c. soHAAF.

Is fall Matching profitable? No
doubt. but this is question that comes
to the minds of all amateur poultry
raisers when the days OF the spring
and summer have passed. They have
hens or iIcubators that are idle. and
eggs that are not bringing very
high market price. They wonder IL
it will really pay to hatch a few
chicks and raise them to some size
before the cold weather comes.
Now, this fall Matching of chicks
depends upon what you want the chicks
for. If 1t is for winter layers. OF
course, 1t is out Of the question, for
they would not lay during the winter.
If. on the other hand, you had eggs
and broody hens and wanted a few
birds to sell IN the very late fall or
at Christmas time, it would pay. II
you wished some pullets that would
begin to lay when the others had
Stacked bit during July and August
of the following year. they would just
fill the bill. Many breeders are hatch
ing chicks during the early fall in
order to have pullets that Will begin
laying In the spring. and keep 1t up
till late fall. Then they can be sold
just before they begin to moult, which
would be month or two later.
1t Is true that summer chicks are
harder to raise on account Of the eX.
treme heat. but If properly cared for
they will soon pass the very warm
period of the summer. and the fall
weather will agree with them, and
they will grow like weeds Care mus,
be exercised to give them proper shade
with plenty of light, bulky foods. SO
that they will stand the heat and grow
quickly.
In Time for Holiday Dinners.
We VIII say that you are Matching
during September; the chicks come out
about the middle OF the month. They
will then have nearly three months in
which TO grow. and by that time they
will be large enough to stand the cold
I of winter. and yet continue their
: growth.
II. however. you have raised these
birds simply to sell for the meat You
will have two or two-and- half
pound birds to sell which at market
price will bring you q Soodly return
The hatchi: eggs We're at the lowest

They would be sold at time wher

do with few dollars in the upbuild-
ing OF the South what the people and
the railroads spent millions to do in
the West. The answer is easy-the
West shows results. If our people can
ever be made to fully realize that a OIL
lar given to the cause of upbuilding the
South is not contribution TO charity,
but a dollar we'll invested, then, and
not until then, is our section going
to prosper as 1t should. To develop n
city. or section. or the South, will re-
quire money just as the development
of the railroads required money"
BY way of comment, the editor o.
the Record asks:
When Will our Southern railroads
really learn that they can create their
own prosperity by wisely spending
money to develop the growth through
broadcast publicity work. This is a
work which should receive the direct
personal study of the executive Off
GERS, and not be handed down to some
minor official with limited means at
his command. This creative work is
big enough for the brainiest executive
officer to be in constant touch with
and then possibly the money needed
for Its details will be found"
That seems to hit the nail right on
the head, and further comment is un-
necessary at this time.

CRAWFORD TALKS
 ON BUILDING PLANS
Dividend Declared By American Trust Seyier Added To Board of
 Directors

At a meeting of the board of directors of the American Trust and Savings bank, held yesterday, the usual quarterly divi- dend of per cent upon the capital stock was declared and ordered paid to the stockholders on July 1.
 President Crawford stated that the old building would be entirely removed by the end of this week, and that immediately thereafter excavations would be begun for the foundation of the new building and that detail plans would be received and the contract let for the new building by July 1.
 L. Sevier, general agent of the Southern railway, the Alabama Great Southern railroad, and the Mobile and Ohio rail- road. was elected a member of the board of directors of the American Trust and Savings bank. The election of MT. Se- vier will add additional strength to the already strong and influential board oi directors, as perhaps no one enjoys a larger and more extended acquaintance ship over the state and the south than Mir. Sevier.
