Back Home" to Virginia.

About five years ago a young
man and his wife "pulled up
stakes" and moved from Taze-
we'll to Northwestern States.
Like hundreds of Southerners
they were attracted to the great
West by wonderful stories and
alluring offers put out by land
agents and railroads The
promise of cheap lands, free
homesteads and the open, free
life of the plains lured hem
away, and away they went.
After five years of hard work,
day and night, they returned a
week ago, broke" They
found t h at the newspaper
stories did not tell all the story
oil life in the great Northwest.
The bright side of the picture
only was presented. Hot winds,
blizzards and drouglhts cannot
be put i'll pictures,a and are never
put in words
The particular case of the
young man above mentioned liz
typical of hundreds OF others
He failed through no fault of
his own. Not all men who
move west fail, by any means,
but the ONT to 10 made
here is, that there is M reason
in the world why any man seek
ing home for himself and
family need leave Virginia for
the West, or any other part Of
the country Does he seek lands,
good water, good climate. good
churches and schools: All
hese are to be found right here
at home, and right among the
kindest, mos, refine and most
hospitable people on earth. Vir-
ginia has hundreds of thousands
of acres of vacant lands which
can be fought very cheap, and
on the best of terms. True,
much of this land is called
poor but much rich produc-
tive and all Of il can be made
so by intelligent cultivation.
The young man referred to.and
his partner, had out last season
$50 acres i'll wheat, which av-
eraged about bushels per
acre. Thus might have been
Exceptional but for years the
hot winds, droughts and bliz
yards, unknown in Virginia
bIighted their crops, and left
them Sin u hole every time.
Experience is costly teacher.
The boys will learn the les
son after II while which the
newspapers and other agencies
here have been trying to beat
into their heads for years that
old Virginia is 1.-THE garden
spot of the earth. "-Clinch
