By T. o. SANDY.

To a person who is deeply inter-

as well as Of great advantage. to note
the habits and general methods used
in the rural districts when travelling
through other States.
When recently en- route to Ontario

looked out on the section OF country
from York County, Pa, to Harris
burg, Pa, could imagine a contented.
peaceful country-loving people. Farms
were small and well fenceu. Houses
AMI barns neatly built and painted,
and, with the exception of orchards,
everything indicated thrift. which
could easily be accounted for. when
IL was noticed that the lands had
been well cared for. and at that time
lime was being applied to almost every
field through which our car passed
Fire cattle horses, hogs and a plenty
OF grass could be seen on ali sides.

Deep, fine seed beds, lime. PHOSPHORUS
and manure formed the secret of their
success. and I wondered how long 1t
would take to convince the farming
element OF Virginia that such metho-Ss
are no mistake. They have been fully
demonstrated In many sections of or
States.
There Is one thing. though, in
which several counties of Virginia
have surpassed those PASSED through
