In language with magic and charm.

Far away from the ssphalts alarm
Where the air is like incense and water

Runs the ballad of "Bsck to the Farm. "

And many's the morn at four-thirty

To buy him a meal check, SO he will

Washington and Pennsylvania capital
lists, but the deal was not put through.
A member of the board Of directors
stated that the proposition to sell was
voted down, but from another source

besresumed at any time.
The Northern Virginia Power Com
pany, which has large electrical plants
at MilviIle, Jefferson county, W. Va !.
and also at Berkeley Springs and Great
Cacapon. W. Va, has become one of

trio railway line from Winchester to

The same interests are said to be allied
with former United States Senator
Watson and other wealthy West Viz.

for electrical lines from HagerstoWn to
Martinsburg, Winchester and inter
mediate points. -Journal.
