DOMESTIC ANIMALS ON FARMS N

We have a just pride in the $50. 0O0, 900
annual coal sale in West Virginia. We
should have have equally just shame in
the fact that we import into West Vir-
ginia annually about $50, OOO, 900 of farm
products which the state should pro-
duce. "A careful investigation made a
short time ago showed that West Vir-
GINA imported about $40, 600, 600 worth
of hay. corn, oats, beans and potatoes;
about SIS, O00, 900 worth of animal pro-
ducts. and about s34. 900 600 worth of
other farm products. Thus it took all
of our coal to pay the.farmers Of other
States. The time is ripe for our legis-
lators and citizens to give these alarm
ing conditions careful considerations.
