REMOVAL OF TUMoR.

Mr.. Henry Will, of Beaver creek,
Floyd county, is several pounds
lighter to-day than when he left
home few days ago and came to
Louisa, The difference in weight is
the result OF the removal of fatty
tumor which had grown on his left
side and made life a burden. On
Monday last the removal was ac-
complished by DR.. T. d. Burgess,
Or G. w. wroten assisting. Mr.
Will was accompanied to this city
by brother, and they win probably
return home this week.

Stop The ExtortIon.

Governor Wilson's election will
insure Democratic House and in
all probability Democratic Senate
to carry out his policies of progress
sive reform and then there will be
no further delay in the peoples de-
mands. They will no longer be
thwarted by the vetoes of Presi-
dent who is bound hand and foot to
the interests on the most insignifi-
cant pretext. The tariff will be re-
duced to the necessities of an econ
omically administered government
and high prices for food and cloth

B. { 0. RAILROAD.
Making 4 Survey Along Big
Sandy River.
RunoIs Of q New Railroad Line IN
This Valley Revived BY This
Action.

A Baltimore & Ohio engineering
corps OF nine persons arrived here
last Sunday night and began opera
tions the following day The party
has quarters at the Brunswick and
VIII. SO II Is said, be in this sec
ton OF the country about three
weeks. The engineers began work
IN the John Bartram bottom near
Fort Gay, w. Va.
Speculation is rife concerning this
late move OF the B. & 0. The fol-
lowing from the Huntington Dis
patch has an air OF probability and
is interesting. The work now being
done by the corps near Fort Gay
may be part OF the survey mention
ed in the Huntington paper:
Having completed their survey
OF railroad right OF way for a
great distance up Symmes creek
from It's mouth. the engineers OF the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad have
moved TO the Big Sandy valley, and
are now engaged in running a pre-
liminary survey from Kenova to
Shelby Gap. Both sides OF the Big
Sandy river are being surveyed. and
Il "a believed that line of railroad
extending from Huntington to the
holdings OF the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad about Jenkins. KY. will be
built In the not distant future.
The rumor has been afloat in this
city for some time that such a sur
vey was contemplated. and It has
been known for some time that the
line up Symmss creek was prac-
tically completed. Yesterday even
ing MIR. Richard Mather, assistant
engineer OF the Baltimore a Ohio
with offices in this city. was ques-
toned In regard TO the matter, and
confirmed the rumor that the en-
gineers OF the b. and o. are now at
work in the Sandy river valley near
Louisa
The Importance OF this movement
OF the d. and o. engineers Is readily
apparent In the light OF the battle
which has been waged between rail-
roads through this section for a
right OF way from the enormous
coal fields in Kentucky to he great
lakes. Almost score OF surveys
have been made over all possible
routes TO find an advantageous out
let for the Kentucky coal to the
northern markets. The b. a o. rail-
road now has n line built from Shell
by Gap to jenkins. KY, in the very
heart of the new coal field, and a
line from Kenova to Jenkins prob
ably means that the b. & o. intends
to bridge the Ohio river at this
point and build continuous line
through Huntington and up the
symmes creek valley TO one of the
ports on the great lakes.
II will probably be some time be-
fore the definite plans of the Balti-
more & Ohio railroad can be known,
but II Is definitely settled that n
line will be built from Kenova to
Shelby Gap along one OF the routes
as laid off by the engineers now at
work In that section

Farmers INSTITUTE /.
Held Here Last Week Had Small
Attendance.


Please notice the omission of the
word Farmers. The promised in
instructors were here, but for all
the agriculturists who attended the
school it might have been called
any kind of an institute. The
weather was fine, farm work al
this season is not pressing, and
nothing but want of inclination
kept our farmer friends from at
tending. and they missed much
which would have proved interest
ing and valuable to them The
lecturers we're Mrs. H. B. Walcott,
of Shelbyyille, KY, Mrs. G. L.
Chamberlain, of Irvington, KY, Mr..
Stanley F, Morse, of Northboro,
Mass, and Charles d. Lewis. of
Berea, this State. These people are
well versed in the different lines
of agriculture, stock raising and
the business of household manage
ment, and the court house should
have been filled with farmers and
housekeepers, but it wasn't.
The Big Sandy news., 1912-10-25

1t is deplorable fact that the
average farmer in Lawrence county
doesno. care to learn scientific farm
ing. At the Farmers Institute held
lin the court house Friday Oct 18.
there we're only 15 farmers present.
The Big Sandy News had printed
notices of the meeting. hand bills
had been distributed generally over
the county. and yet there was a
meager attendance. 1t seems to an
observer that the only hope OF
arousing any interest in this, and
surrounding counties, in better farm
ing, is to begin with the boys and
girls, and to do so, in the common
schools of the country. The lectures
were splendid but were made to
vacant seats. II we have about lost
hope of interesting the mature
manhood OF the county in these
vital matters. we must urge upon
the proper authorities to have the
common school teacher, as part Of
the common school course. teach
the children how to bring back the
original fertility Of the soil.
