responded by asking: 'eWhere is your

are many.
The old idea of real home is fast dis

to stay; it may be worse as time goes by,

What is the remedy? Simply to make

Long Continued Drought Cuts
Tobacco Crop Short-Cotton
Mills Worked by Steam.

Danville. Va. August 5.-The long
continued drought in this great tobacco
section has become very serious
proposition While the rains have n,
last come. the general opinion is that
they came too late TO do very much
good. The tobacco crop Is cut short
all the way from % to so per cent.
This margin is explained by the fact
that the rains that have come have
been very scattering. Some showers
that did good work within a space OF
Il mile did not get much further. Here
and there tobacco growers have good
crops and good prospects. and here
and there they are making utter fail

From this auto trip. which. by the

other information gathered I learned
that all of the roads ceptring in the
town OF Lawrenceville for three to
hve miles out have been made good by
the Bravel-c!ay blend process. and the

Lawrenceville have planked UP the

Away back yonGer, in the early days
OF the present year q. .. Pcrego, OF

which he had developed. and which
he was pleased to call the Texas
Stock Melon" His experience Of four
years in the culture of this melon
seems 10 have developed the fact that

way. in that it would keep green all
winter and furnish green food for
cattle. hogs. sheep and chickens; that

and other good things for the winter
time. Mr.. PereEo. who is a constant
reader of the Industrial Section of The
Times Dispatch. had by such reading
become right much interested in Vir-
Einia farmers He conceived the idea
that the Texas stock melon would
grow quite as we'll in Virginia soil as
in Texas. and being willing and anxi-
Gus to help his Virginia brethren as
much as possible. ne made a PROPOSE

is report or two l have from tho
folks who have experimental with
Mr.. Perego's Texas stock melons. So

any melons: they are not expected TO
