Henry C. Stuart.

Though it now seems more
than probable that Hon. Henry
c. Stuart will have no opposition
in the Gubernatorial race, it is
but mete and proper that the
readers of the Herald should
know more of the man who will
be next Governor of Virginia.
First and foremost, then, he
is farmer in the truest meaning
of the word. Not that he grows
tobacco, or cotton, or peanuts,
but that he does grow corn and
cattle, grain and grass. And
while busy on the farm his fell
low citizens first sent him to the
Constitutional Convention and
afterwards he was appointed
member of the Corporation
Commission.
AS member of the Constitution
al Convention he aided in giving
relief to the white people of
East Virginia. AS Chairman of
the Committee on Agriculture
he was author of a short article
in the Constitution which
brought the agricultural interests
of the State under the fostering
care of the commonwealth.
AS member of the Corporation
Commission he was author of
the two cent railway passenger
rate. He was author of a new
set of express rates applicable
in Virginia, which greatly low
cred the old rate and established
the fifteen cent minimum in
stead of the Is cent rate. He
reduced the 40 cent telegraph
rates to 25, established a system
of rules and regulations relating
to storage, demurrage and car
service in Virginia under which
penalties were imposed upon the
transportation companies for
failure to furnish cars within
a reasonable time after being
ordered, or failing to move cars
promptly to destination, also
allowing reasonable time within
which to load and unload cars,
five days being allowed to per-
sons living more than five miles
from the railroad station, extra
time allowed in all cases fol
inclement weather.
The above is but brief sum-
mary of the practical work of a
practical man dealing with pub.
lie affairs. Practical farmer first
and then practical public officia
dealing with the needs of the
people of the entire common
wealth.
Having done well he can be
relied on to do we'll as Governor
of a great State. -Farmville

you have and give this new crop
a chance. Have it dry, drainage
is first and most essential. Lime
it, one to two tons of burned
lime to the acre. Inoculate with
cultures on alfalfa soil, one to
two hundred pounds of soil to
the acre.
Don't do any two of these
three necessary parts. drainage,
lime incubation, and leave the
third out, or you won't succeed.
Don't sow sweet clover to get
incubation, you are wasting
time. Don't SOW a nurse crop,
because it is a robber crop. If it
keeps weeds back it keeps alfalfa
back as much; SOW alfalfa alone
and if your ground has been
pretty clean it will fight its own
battle, and the clipping will kill
most of the weeds. You SOW
your red clover in wheat not be-
cause it will do better than if
sown by itself. but to save the
use of land for one season, and
some of these days you can SOW
alfalfa the same way. If seed is
sown on rich soil you can get
from one to two cuttings the
first year, but to succeed your
soil should be well inoculated,
otherwise | think it preferable
to get soil in shape by killing
weeds all summer and SOW by
first of August. If you fail now
it is not the fault of alfalfa, soil
or climate. but one of the little
things which go to make success
Or failure when you are applying
practice to theory, therefore try
the second time and you won't
fial; if you do go after it again,
the third time is a sure thing.
You all have lost your red
clover crop more than three
times, in fact have cut it many
times when it did not pay. Now
if you won't SOW alfalfa send
and get a sample paper and give
it to the good wife. She will
show you how to raise alfalfa.

Raise Alfalfa

The time is coming when
alfalfa will be one of the rotation
crops in Western Pennsylvania.
This is a broad assertion, but it
will be so. AS soon as the people
recognize the feeding qualities
of alfalfa compared with all
other crops, then they will
awaken to the fact that they
have been neglecting a source of
revenue for years, but in order
to know this they must raise it,
you can't talk it. If you can't
start with one acre, begin with
less, even one rod square will
do. You all have time to make a
flower bed? Make it.
Now let US forget that we are
sowing alfalfa to enrich the soil,
which it does materially, but
that is indirect. Let us SOW the
seed to get a revenue from the
crop. Do you ever get any return
from corn, oats or wheat on poor
land? You have planted or sown
corn, oats and wheat all your
life and had time to study and
know the requirements of each.
Alfalfa-you have seen the seed
and that is all. Now get busy,

brushes all self-reliance and
ingenuity out of his boys by
constant fault-fnding, usually

work and in play, who has
stayed home evenings and played
checkers with them has been
"redeeming the time" most
wisely. Geo. w. Godfrey, Iowa.

The liquor traffic is "legit-

IAN evil that cannot be avoided, "
says the politician, and together
they stand united to perpetuate
this monster wrong. If you
would know what the liquor
traffic is see mother, at the mid
night hour. almost wild with
despair, waiting for the return
of her drunken, yet once inno-
cent boy. Hear her groans and
see her scalding tears as she
cries out from her anguished
heart, "Oh God, where is my
boy tonight-once so pure, but
now ruined and lost? Oh, that

earth and save my boyn'

pallid face. Hear her bitter

Look in the corner of the room

in the mire so he lies intoxicated
on the floor. Listen to her
words: "This cursed liquor
traffic has taken ALL! Joy fled
from our once happy home when
this curse entered. Oh, that the
dove of peace would again return
and that my husband might be
saved! My heart is pierced by
a thousand woes, but WHO
CARES?"
Hear the words of the once
prosperous business man who
has fought like a gladiator; but
has each day fallen deeper in
debauchery and sin. Filled with
desperation he pours out the
honest feelings of his soul:
"Oh, this awful G. u r S f.!

resolution meet an open saloon

Listen to these voices from
living tombs! Would you ask
again. what is the liquor
trafhc?" Neglected wives and
ragged children can tell you.
The mother who lays the cold
form of her drunken son in the
grave can tell you! The liquor
traffic is a mighty reservoir of
crime, misery, want and dis
grace, flooding the earth with
tears and blood! 1t is the break
ing of the cyclone, tearing up
happy homes. hurting children
into the streets, wrecking the
beautiful, the noble, and the
brave, leaving death and devasta-
ton in its track! Look over the
field where this destroyer has
done its deadly work-the skel-
etons of noble manhood and of
bright intcllects are strewn

MARION co. COURT
HOLDS SESSION

! JASPER, Tenn, April 23.-County
! Court met at Jasper Monday morning
in regular quarterly session. The re.
| port of County Judge G. l.. William
| son was read and approved. Appro-
pristion bill of general expenses was
ordereu paid, including bill for
Sl45 so to DR.. Bryan, of Monteagle,
for waiting on small pox patients at
Monteagle. There was considerable
debate over this point because of the
fact that the County Physician had
been ordered by a resolution passed
making it his duty to look after such
cases without additional pay.
Franchises were granted to two pow
er companies to erect poles along the
highways of the county. These fran
chises were sought for at January
term of court, but owing to refusal Of
parties to enlighten Court as to who
they were the matter was laid over to
this Court. The right was given to
the South Pittsburg Power Co. to erect
poles along the highways of the coun-
ty, and on the streets and alleys of
Jasper. The second franchise was
given to the Tennessee Power Co,
which gets its power from series of
dams constructed and others being con-
structed along Ocoee River in East
Tennessee to erect poles and towers on
which to stretch wires along the high
ways of the county. W. NJ Cameron,
of South Pittsburg, repI esented the in
terests of this latter company. The
Tennessee Power Co. is already in tue
