Tie Feet and Legs of Horses

Horse owners know how easily
the feet and legs Of horses are
affected if care of them is not
taken. A horseman with ex-
I erience in this matter says:
Some horses are particularly
rredisposed to cracked heels or
scratches, and will brake out if
well fed and not regularly ex-
ercised. Cold, damp weather and
standing in mud or slush, with
out care being taken of the legs,
usually serves TO increase the
trouble, which is thus worse in
spring, autumn and winter. 1t

skin, technically called erythe-

TAZEWELL. VA, JAN. 81. 1913.
AGAINST PRIMARY.

1t now seems from the actions
of the Democratic county
committee that there will be nc
primary for the election OF
recommendation of postmasters
for Tazewell and North Tazewell.
The committee was unanimous
in its conclusions that the ques-
ton of calling a primary to
settle the post Office squabble is
not within their jurisdiction.
The committee did not say there
should be no primary, but simply
reached the conclusion that the
party laws did not cover the
question, consequently they were
powerless to act in the premises.
They say that a primary thus
early in the year, two months
before a Democratic President
has been indicted into office,
was considered inadvisable. The
primary adherents in the county
will probably wait until a more
suspicious time and occasion to
further consider the matter.
Adherents of the primary have
stated that a meeting will be
called in the near future to fur
Their consider the primary for
the two towns.

The Cream Pail

No man ever grew a calf he
was proud enough of to take the
neighbors down to the barn and
exhibit the animal unless he
spent some time every day
grooming, feeding, and other
wise caring for it. That is til e
price of good calves.
Don't worry because other
folks have things you haven't.
They are thinking the same of
you. Bad for you both. Keep
CHEEKY.
Maybe you have a hired man
that can be trusted to fodder
your cows. If you have, you
have a jewel. Most farmers had
better do their own foddering.

A PEOPLES GOVERNOR.

1t appears from newspaper
reports that Governor William
Suizer, of New York, is already
making record for fearlessness
aid independence in the conduct
OF the affairs of that great state.
Tammany does not now reign in
the affairs of State, and will
have to share in the spoils of
victory with others less fortu-
nate in organization. Like
Governor Harmon, OF Ohio, Mr..
Sulzer, comes from the common
people and knows and appreciates
their needs.
We have an idea that the
gentleman from Russell county
has a good deal of the Sulzei
qualities and would govern the
State of Virginia regardless Of
clicks and rings.

News of Tip Top.

Tip Top, Va, Jan. IS. There
is much sickness in our COM
munity at this time. Mrs. Mollie
HARRISON, of Abs Valley, has
been sick for a month, but is
better now. Tom Shells wife,
who has been very i'll with pneu-
monia, is slightly improved.
Chas. Kinzer of Mudfork is con-
fined to the house was better
yesterday.
DR.. Pyott is looking after the
sick folks, and is having a bad
time getting around over the
new roads and old ones too,
through the mud. The writer
went with Doctor yesterday,
down Abb's Valley. There is a
force or two at work on this
road. About 7 or 8 miles of
grading is nearly finished. This
will be fine piece OF road when
completed; and with roads being
made in Horsepen and on Mud
fork, will be of untold value to
farmers and others in getting
products to the markets. A force
OF men are now at work l mile
west of Tip Top quarrying stone
for the macadam road from r.
R. Shoots to Tip Top. The
on this road was nearly
finished last year. Now, if the
road from Tip Top to Bailey was
macadamized-a route direct
from Tazewell, and all the west
end of TaZewell County would be
opened to travel. 1t is earnestly
hoped that all the little gaps will
be connected up this summer.

ALIENS RESPTTED.

The News announced last
Friday morning that Governor
Mann had respited Floyd and
Claude Allen, father and son, to
March 7th. The Governor an
nounced that he would hear
further arguments in favor of
the communication of the sentences
on February l. 1t is stated that
after-discovered evidence will
most surely influence the chief
executive of the State to com
mute the sentence of Claude
Allen to a term of Imprisonment.
1t appears that Governor Mann
has paid little heed to the
thousands of petitioners who
have asked him to save the life
of Claude Allen, who was
brought into the frightful Hills
vile TRAGEDY through his father,
and who did ne more than any
other faithful son would have
done.

Save The Waste

What other business except
the raising of corn will allow a
waste of 80 to 40 per cent. and
still permit the producer to make
some profits? Can you imagine
that sane, sensible men by the
hundreds and by the thousands
would work hard almost the year
round raising and caring for
valuable corn crop and then
deliberately waste from 80 to 40
per cent. of the gross results of
their labor? No, you cannot
imagine such a thing; but the
facts are this is just what
thousands of farmers in Iowa
and Nebraska are doing today.
This is not any fanoiful theory
of mine, but demonstrable facts.
One acre of good Iowa and
Nebraska corn will produce
twelve tons of corn silage. This
same twelve tons of rich feed
with hay will feed two milk
cows for ten months, which, if
properly cared for, vi ling
their owner anywhere Ircm $50
to $50 from the sale of cream
during the ten months, to say
nothing of the two calves that
can be raised, nor considering
the value of the skinned milk
for pig and chicken feed, and,
there is no business that will
return such quick and handsome
profits as feeding skinned milk
TO pigs and chickens. This same
twelve tons of corn silage can be
put into silo at the cost of S25.
Farmer, build silos. Don't wait.

One hundred saloon-keepers
of Pottsville, Pa, who failed to

discontinued their former habit
of making saloons their meeting
place, and now take their
families and meet at the picture
