Seed Corn

The October Bulletin is now being
sent out to the farmers of the State
by Commissioner Koiner is good one.
It calls the farmers timely atten-
ton to the Importance, of selecting
his seed corn for the next year s
crop. The Bulletin contains a cut of
an ideal seed ear of corn. 1t is a copy
Of the Champion Ear of Corn that
took the ST, 100000 prize at the Ma
tional Corn Show. The proper care of
seed corn is more important Ethan
many farmers suppose. Test reports
show an increase in yield of 16 bush
els per acre due to extra care of seed.
Some farmers are not posted as to
what is the best shaped ear of corn
to breed from.
The Bulletin also contains a time
ly article on the impor tant subject
of chow to grade winter apples for
the market to obtain the best prices.
There is plain discussion on the
use of lime, also, an article showing
a common waste in caring for the
corn slower in this State. The Com
missioner urges the use of the Silo on
the farm.
There is also an instructive article
on the value and use of Hog Cholera
Serum to save loss from Cholera in
hogs. The article stated that SIS, OOO
90 has already been saved by the
farmers who have used the serum.
There is ..receipe on how to keep
cider and wine. Also treatment fol-
the foot and sore mouth disease that
has been prevalent in some sections
of the State this season. The Bulletin
contains a number of analysis OF
fertilizers and seed. Every farmer il
the State should get these helpful
bulletins. which, are sent monthly
free of cost, to all who send Commits
sioner Koiner their names and ad
dresses.

TAzEWELL LIKE
GARDEN OF EDEN

DR.. George S. Walker, father of
Mrs. George w. st. Clair writes rs
follows in the Stuunton Daily Leader
Having returned to stanton after
spending several months in Southwest
tern Virginia, and being so favorably
impressed with it, have concluded
to give you limitedde scriptio of it.
It rained nearly every day curing the
months of June. and August, which
enlivened everything, and when left
on the 18th of September, the country
was fresh and fine.
The only objection 10 visiting
Southwestern Virginia from Stanton
is the Inconvenience occassioned by
bad railroad connections. Leaving here
at 2 a. M, you will have to wait at
Basic about four hours to get train
west to reach TaZewell, whittier /
went, ut 3 p. M, distance Of $50
miles and thirteen hours on the road.
During that time | travelled only
about eight hours. the balance of the
time being wasted. If you leave
here at any time you will have to
stay all night at Basic or Bluefield,
or some other intermediate point.
Returning you reach Basic mt 10 20
on the N. and W., and the train on
the G. and o., passes there coming
west about 10 80 p. m. and if they
have no one to get off there, they will
not stop, and you will have to stay
all night, only about IL miles from
home; hence the inconvenience and
waste of time. 1t seems to me the
railroad companies should look into
such things and correct them. Pro per
connections would save our people
great Inconvenience and considerable
waste of time, and save expense.
Well. that is about the only object
ion. and having reached the portion |
visited one feels fully repaid.
Tazewell county, where | was, is
the most fertile and picturesque coun-
ty in Southwest Virginia, and taken
all in all, / doubt if it can be excelled
at home or abroad, especially that
section in which Tazewell, the county
seat, is situated. This portion of the
county is valley, beautiful beyond
| description, and / think would defy
| the skill of an artist to picture it..
True, it is mountainous, but it is no
wilderness. 1t is five or six miles
wide and about 25 long, with Clinch
River running through it, with in
Vulnerable springs and running brooks
on every farm. Tazewell G. H. is not
| far from the eastern head of the val
ley, or section, with an altitude OF
$500 feet, and has population OF
1900.
The view from almost every dwell
ing house is fine, but ascending {
little elevation, the scenery is beyont
description. The moutains are no
continuous, except on either side o
the valley, but consist of large an,
small elevations, many of them beau
tifully shaped, some here and ther
