A Big Meeting,

Major Tynes has returned from
the Annual Confederate reunion,
in Roanoke, quite hoarse,
whether from speechmaking or
just hollerin', is not known. He
says. that the reception given
the veterans by the City of
Roanoke was perhaps the very
heartiest and best ever known.
The Roanoke Times, it was
noticed, didn't "enthuse",very
greatly over the veterans, due
no doubt to the ninety dollar"'
episode mentioned in its editori-
al columns q short time ago.
Some fellow "enthused," anG
it cost him ninety bucks, and this
seems to have had a cooling
effect upon the naturally en-.
thusiastic editor of the Times
However, the people enthuset
all right. Truth is, Roanoke is {
fine up-to-date town, and never
does any thing by halves.

memory is not at fault the Ninth
district has never had a member
of this board, and now that
there is a vacancy caused by the
death of Col. Harwood, the op-
portunlty is afforded the Govern
or to fill this vacancy by an an
pointee from the Ninth, if he
should see fit to do SO. The
Ninth district would seem to be
entitled to representation on
this Board, as the medical col

at Minneapolis for an operation
believing that n successful op-

health. The day before he was

stricken with a severe attack of

the end came quickly.
Mr.. Suthers left Tazewell near

he and his sons entered claims
and began farming and stock

year, until they now control a
large and magnificent estate.
He was a noted Masonic instruc-

Corn Short-Steak at 81. 90.

President James Ed. Peery, of
the Tazewell Street Railway
Company, was in town yester-
day, and ordered the News sent
to his son, Albert, who is attend
ing Fork Union Academy. Like
other farmers in the county Mr..
Peery's corn crop is short, feed
ers scarce, price high, but what's
the difference the nations in
safe hands. Mr.. Peery places
little credence in the report sent
out from Chicago few days
ago, that steak in a year or two
would be $1.00 per pound. In
case that price should prevail,
what would Tazewell fat cattle
be worth? How would this
sound: "a pound of beef for &
years subscription"

VICE OF ALL KINDS
EXISTED AT FAIR
Reports Of Gambling, Etc., at Fair
Are Always Heard, But Few
KnOwihe Game Whenihey Seeit.

Several complaints and pro-
tests have been vigorously made
as to the gambling devices on
the midway, at the Fair. 1t is
reported that wheels of fortune.
roulette wheels and other gambl-
ing devices were much in evil
dence, and seem to have been
of absorbing interest to the
young boys of the community,
and some boys not quite so
young. The Commonwealths at
torney and other officers seem to
have taken no notice of the
matter, and the conclusion is
that perhaps these complainant g
are mistaken, and don't know a
gambling machine when they
see one. Horse racing is general
ly attended by more or less bett-
ing and gambling, and one form
is not much if any worse, than
another. The more respectable
the more dangerous. If there
was no gambling at all at this
Fair it was perhaps an exception
to any Fair ever held in this
section, and yet it would be
efficient if not impossible, to
find a man who saw and would
be willing to tell. What are you
going to do about it?

ORDER OF ALFALFA
ORGANIZED HERE
Hon. WestmOreland Davis, Leading
Virginia Farmer, Talks on Sub
jects Of Interest to Farmers.

The suggestion was made ir
this paper that Mr.. Davis visit
to Tazewell should be made the
occasion of the organization OF
an "Order of Alfalfa" for the
county.
In pursuance of this object a
meeting was held in the Clinch
Valley News Office on Thursday
night, where the matter was
fully discussed, and plans put on
foot for the permanent organi-
zation of the order Mr.. Davis
was present, and made an in
teresting and informal talk on
the subject of alfalfa, the
Queen of the Clovers. The
state of Wisconsin, Mr.. Davis
stated, had been made rich and
independent largely through the
growing of alfalfa, by which a
great dairying industry had
been built up. Other states have
Il similar experience. Thousands
of acres are now being grown in
Virginia successfully" The
only objection said Mr.. Davis"
that | have heard made against
alfalfa is, that it keeps you
cutting and putting it up all the
time" From three to five tons
per acre of the finest hay ever
made, can be grown on almost
every farm in Virginia.
Mr.. Lacy Tynes was chair
man of the meeting. and Col.
O'Brien secretary, and these
gentlemen were constituted
committee on membership. There
will be- no dues. The only re-
quirement is a promise from
each member that he will grow
a patch of alfalfa, the size of
W hich he himself is to fix. 1t
is expected that the order will
be large one.
Col. Coffman, the we'll known
breeder of pure bred hogs was
present, and made several in
teresting talks, showing that he
knows about other things than
swine. He has studied alfalfa
and fertilizers, and is now in
Producing among the farmers
phosphorus in the shape of raw,
rock phosphate, finely ground,
at a low rate, in car lots. He
secured a number of trial orders
here. Mr.. Coffman says he hopes
to do for the wheat bins and
corncribs of the country as ervice
similar to that which he has
done for the smoke houses.
Clinch Valley news. [volume] (Jeffersonville, Va.) 18??-2019, 1913-09-26

The Superintendent of the
Agricultural Department, who
is the editor of this paper also,
told Henry Copenhave how to
grow alfalfa, giving him all the
information he could. Henry
went at 1T, and at the last Fair
showed against the editor and
beat him to first premium.
Also he distributed samples of
his line sweet corn seed to
number of his friends, among
them Mr.. Thos. Jackson Brown.
The said Mr.. Brown went at it
also, and showed corn against
the editor and beat him for first
money. Nevertheless, the ed ditor
has his reward, even if he was
beat at his own game.

In fulfillment of a promise
made to the editor of this paper,
at the State Farmers Institute,
in Lvnchburg, in August last.
Mr.. Westmoreland Davis, Presi-
dent of the State Farmrs Insti-
tute, was here during the last
two days of the Fair, remaining
over until Friday morning. He
was scheduled for an address on
Thursday, but owing to the down
pour of rain, preventing the as
sembling of a crowd, the address
was not made. However, his
visit was, by no means useless.
He met privately a number of
the leading citizens of the county
on the ground and in town, all
of whom were impressed by his
enthusiastic and intelligent con-
versation on matters generally,
and agricultural matters in par
ticular.
Mr.. Davis is not only an en-
thuisiastic and successful farm
er but he also takes a lively
interest in all public matters
looking to the uplift of his
brethren. Through his influence
largely the lime grinding bill
was passed in the last General
Assembly. He has made long
and expensive trips through the
great west and northwest,
studying agricultural conditions,
and brought back with him
valuable suggestions and plans
for the benefit of the farmers OF
the State.
He is a young, progressive,
hard-headed Virginian farmer
and man Of affairs, optimistic,
genial and popular withal. Il
has been more than once public.
ly and privately stated, that Mr.
}. Davis will one day be governo,
of Virginia.
Should this dream "com,
true" +" the farming interest il
the State would have in him
