with the hope that 1t win be instrumental In not
only acquainting the outside world with the tre-
mendous agricultural advantages offered by yir-
ginia. but will awaken the people of this State to
keener realization of the virtues of this grand
old Commonwealth. ts
The pages OF the tabloid issued supplemental
to The rir0inian are filed with the opinions OF
men who have made agriculture, fruit culture,
stock raising. and geology a lifelong study. The
story of virginias stupendous resources and ag.
ricultural facilities is simply told and without
exaggeration--if there could be exaggeration in
writing on such an inspiring subject
Commissioner of Agriculture Koiner sums up
the matter in single sentence:
"The sun merer ilumaaed a more beau
tifnl country, the pIosoman neuer turned
kinder SOIL and the stranger nerer
shook the hand Of q more hospitable
people,"
The Farmers Edition of The Virotnian has
a good purpose. 1t is to attract attention of nom
residents of Virginia to this State, not by highly
colored advertisements and bombastic phrase,
but by cold, hard. incontrovertibe facts from
men whose word is all but gospel on Virginia
agricultural matters. Ranking second only to
this purpose, is that of inspiring the Virginia
Farmer to greater things and to an appreciation
Of the fact that under his feet he has soil un
surpassed in the world end about him climate
which cannot but bring to him and his State
more enormous wealth from the bosom Of the
earth than anywhere else in this country at
least. A perusal of the pages OF the tabloid
shows that different writer's claim different sec
lions OF the State to be The Garden Spot" No
inconsistency is thus shown for the fact OF the
Garden Spot" and all sectional claims are justi
fed.

How Billiards oriainated.

1t Is fact not generally known that
the game of billiards was invented by
d pawnbroker. William Kew by name.
who fourished in London some time
in the sixteenth century
This inventive avuncular relative of
the needy used to employ his leisure
hours in wet weather when trade was
dull by taking down the three balls
which were the insignia of his profess
sion and pushing them about the
counter Of his shop with yard stick,
after the manner of the game as at
present played. and using boxes fas-
tened to the sides of his counter for
pockets.
Out of this was developed table
with fence of slight elevation about
1t to keep the balls from rolling on
the floor and to enable the player to
make what have since become known
as cushion shots.

interurban Not A Paper Road

One thousand tons of steel rails and
20, 600 ties for the new Chicago & Wis
consin Valley interurban railroad have
been ordered for early delivery, says
the Portage Democrat.
Three hundred thirty tons of this
steel will be delivered in Portage, and
$40 tons in Madison. The rails and ties
will be used in construction of the city
lines of the road. Work is to begin
next spring as soon as a pick can do
good service in the ground.
The first shipment of rails will be
made from Corey, Pa, in the early part
of February. The order for the ties
will be filled by the Brown Land &
Lumber Co. of Rhinelander. Ten thou
sand of the ties are to be shipped imme-
diately.
In giving the above information the
Portage Democrat, whose editor is
treasurer of the railroad company, adds;
"Skeptics who have insisted that the
Chicago & Wisconsin Valley was a
paper railroad" are especially invited
to be on hand to count the rails and the
ties as they arrive. Stevens Point

Counting Your Chickens
Before They're Hatched
Is not Generally Consid-
cred Good Policy

Selling chickens before
they are Matched might
therefore be considered the
height of fOolishness. But
in order to sell day-old
chicks, it is manifestly neces-
sary to receive orders before
the chicks are Matched. To
advertise them the week al
ter the hatch comes off
would be too late.
The eggs for our first early
hatch arrived Tuesday and
the incubator was started
Wednesday, consequently,
according to the laws of
nature, if there are no mis-
haps, we will have some day
old chicks Feb. 16.
These are thoroughbred
White and Barred Plymouth
Rocks, Of a winter-laying
strain. The eggs come from
a reliable poultry breeder OF
Wisconsin, who was the
only one we could learn of
who would furnish us with
fertile eggs this early in the
season and get them to us
without being chilled in
transit.
Anyone who has had ex-
perience in handling baby
chicks or who will follow the
directions laid down in num-
erous poultry books, can
care for these day-old chicks
as successfully as we can.
The pullets should begin
laying in August and con-
tinue all fall, and the cock
erels you do not care to
keep can be fattened and put
on the market by May first.
If you try a dozen or two OF
this hatch and prove success
full you can get more later.
