DA!GYsi4G N VIRGINIA

iHcu,y Years ago Virginia Was
hardly thought Of as Dairy state.
. There were only . few small herds
to supply mili; "a 'ne lar.e" cities,
Even tcn wears az" ,..IS ":d"strT
had n"t devatopea very 'n:,.'.: "2'.
there were plenty vi inch vino
thought that the State was not
adapted for dairying.
That this was a mistaken idea
has been proven by the fact that
successful diaries are now in oper-
alton in all parts of the Sta;e rs
more modern methods of farming
have come into use, as the farmer
has been looking for methods oi
keeping his rich lands rich and make
his poor lands fertile, 1t has
been proven to him that there IS no
better way 10 do this then by keep
ing dairy COWS.
It's good results haYeb been show
iii the great blue grass sections of
the state where farmers have been
wondering why their yield Of wheat
per acre, wi, n fertilizer, has become
less than it was without fertilizer.
It's good results have been shown
IN the tnhat.rc sections. where thr
average farmer ;uc Years has Heen
robbina his soil Of fertility. The
saying more COWS, more manure,
more manure, better land; better
land, more crops; better crops,
more money" is true in Virginia as
elsewhere.
The increase in creameries gives
some indication of the growth Of
this work. Five years ago there
were only six creameries in thestate,
there are now twenty nine. An
expert from the Agriculture Depart
ment at Washington recently re-
marked that the development CT
Virginia in this line has been mar
veious, far exceeding The develop
ment of any other Southern State.
With this development has come
demand for men; hustling. agrees
i've young men, men who know how
to handle a dairy on farm, or men
who can run a creamery, and for
Ice cream makers.
To help to supply this demand
and furnish young men from our
State to fill these positions, the Ag-
riculture College at Blacksburg has
arranged to put on a special course
during the month of October.
If any young man is interested IN
this work can communicate with
Blacksburg or the Dairy or Food
Division at Richmond, and get in
formation in regard to this special
course.

A. tAesuggestiol OF the local reg
istrar We again call attention 10 the
new law relating to vital statistics,
which went into effect June ii, AS
previously stated, unless The people
co operate in carrying cut lis pro-
visions, there is sure to be colItUs-
ION and delays. especially ia the
burying Of the dead in rural sections
The maGistrars Of the county are
rhe Registrars; they are supposed

tween them, and have been sup
piled with necessary blanks. Ia
case Of birth, the attending physt-
elan or midwife is required, under
penalty Of fine, to make report to
the local Registrar within ten days.
Since &ndertakers are not allow
ed to bury any one unit! q permit
is obtained frc m the Registrar or
| his deputy, II viii facilitate matters
and often prevent delays il, when

tons and have the permit ready 70
hand to. the undertaken when he
comes. This is mentioned because
The undertaken often lives 10 anlace
remote from scene of death. and
often does not arrive untii the hour
of. burial, or short time before the
time. This permit must be obtain
ed from the magistrate nearest the
place of death, hence friends of the
family can secure it more readily
lhau the undertaken, and to have
it ready when he Gomez will be
much better then to delay the bur-
ial until the permit is secured.
Bear it in mind tits now one OF
tAe laws of the State, and burials
are notpcrmitted without this per-
nit. Many persons may fail to see
the Importance of it, but it is 80 re,
garded, and is for the peoples
good. Talk about it and get ready
to do your part in carving out its
provisions.

Commissioner koinef Issues
A New Bulletin.

The State Department of Agrl-
culture is now sending out the June
Monthly Bulliten. This issue goes
to about 10000 farmers, who are
scattered in every one of the hun
dred counties of the State. These
Monthly Bulletin are fresh and prat-
teal for the season in which they
are issued. The June Bulletin con-
taines very practical and inetruc-
tive article on Why We Cultivate
The Soil. Many people, think the
soil is cultivated simply to kill the
weeds, but this Bulletin shows there
are more impartant reasons then
to kill the weeds. 1t says the soil
is cultivated to loosen it, to let the
air in, that the plant roots need air,
as we'll as man. The loose soil also
lets in heat to warm up the soil and
hasten plant grouth, and cultivation
locsens the soil to allow the tiny
roots to push out in their grouth
and lastly the cultivation is to kill
weeds. The article fully explains
the importance of these important
results that are obtained through
cultivation of crops.
Another interesting article ex-
plains fully where the fertilizer
materials are gott,n that go to
make up the fertilizers that the
farmers buy, and thepart the differ
ent fertilizer ingredients take in the
grouth of plants. Another article
discusses the Importance of raising
more live stock in Virginia.
Commissioner. Koiner urges our
farmers to save their crimson clover
seed. He mentions one farmer in
Amelia County who sold $4,000
worth of crimsno clover seed from
his farm last year. This man is a
newcomer from Illinois. The Bul.
letin contains other interesting al
ticles, also large number of analy-
ses cfthe different brands fertilizers
and grass seeds sold in the State.
In Bulletin no. "a, issuedin April,
the saving of the COW pea was urged
and also valuable artical furnished
on How to Grow More Hay and
Grass in Virginia.
In Bulletin no. IS, issued in May,
the leading article discussed the
value of the silo and furnished state
ments from many farmers praising
it's use.
These Bulletins are sent free to
all Virginia farmers upon applica--
tor to Commissioner Koiner at
Richmond and should be read by
evey farmer in the State.
