ORCHARDS
And VINEYARDS Have the Coal
Miners instae POcahontas
Mininl REGION.

CHARLESTON. w. va. Jan. 27.
The majority of the miners of the Po-
cahontas region have no Intention Of
seeking employm ent elsewhere Tor
many years. Indeed, these MN -1s1
do not. even expect to move at least
within decade, from the houses in
which they are now living, thus show
ing that they are .contented with
their employers, their housing and
the labor prospects in that section
OF West Virginia:
Striking testimony of this fact is
given In the news that hundreds 81
families are setting out vineyards
and orchards on plots which they
have rented for nominal sum. Some
OF their vineyards and orchards are
three or four years old and are there
fore in bearing condition. Scores OF
others have been set out within the
past year and, of course, they will
have no harvest for couple of years
yet.
The majority of the white miners
in this region come from Italy and
Hungary and they were agrtcultur-
lists in their native lands. They do
not see any reason for not seeking
other products because they are earn
! ing more mony as miners in this
country than they ever could have
hoped to earn in Europe by tilling the
soil.
At Elkhorn and Grocer one can see
on the sides of the6 hills patches OF
ground fenced Ia, filed with neatly
lpruned and secured trellised grape
vines. On other spots there are
peach. apple; pear and other fruit
trees regularly laid out. The, most
Of the grape vines have been import
ed from the countries whence the
| miners came
But til1ing the soil is not confined
to the whites. Hundreds of negro
miners of the Pocahontas coal fields
devote their energy to gardening. Far
up on the tops of the mountain
where the land is level. is limited
areas, the negro miners work as chief
miners over it. They raise the vege-
tables they were used to in old Vir-
ginia, North Carolina and other
Southern states. They are not much
given for fruit raising. They do not
even raise many watermelons. But
they raise cabbages, potatoes. beans
and the like. BY this soil tflling, in
their leisure hours, the miners in the
Focahontas field have materially re-
duced the cost of Lying and are in
creasing their savings accordingly.

faulty construc lion Of the Stony yer
dam should lead TO regulations that
viii make such structures absolutely
safe.
we admit that we 1--we above the
high water mark, but we believe tn
the developments of power from West
Ytfgfnlass streams. )
What opposition there is to the
construction of water power dams
should be directed against the man
ner of their construction and not, as
the Register says, against the con-
struction of the dams themselves.
These things are great boon to the
people as they provide motive power;
and electricity much cheaper than by
any other method. Nor, inasmuch as
there istno prospect of government or
state ownership of such enterpT !ses,
should opposition to the construction
of dams rest against corporations.
either private or quasi public, simply
because they are corporations. a
big outlay of capital is required for
such enterprises and it is only by
means of a community Of interests as is
provided by corporation or q SINH
lar company that the necessary cap
IitaI can be provided for the work. 1T
should be remembered that ever pri-
vate concerns which develop power
from waterways necessarily must em
ploy a large number of people in the
development of the power as we'll as
furnish products for the market or u
useful service to the public.
But, so far as the opposition is d.
rected toward the methods of con-
struction, it is just and timely; and
the breaking of the Stony river dam
conveys lesson which it is hoped
will impress the public service COM
omission and other officials as forcibty
as 1t has large proportion of the
general public. Big water power
dams should be strongly and secure-
ly built and it is the business of TIE
state to see that they are so con-
+stFucted, in view of which it would
be we'll for the state to provide for a
constant inspection of the materials
used and the methods of construction
whenever dam Is building

Sound Advice.

+ ~. 8 The .Cumbef1ahd, Md, Daily News
hands out some sound advice about
treating children for sore throats, the
lesson OF which Is that parents should
acknowledgements reputable ply
stefan at the very beginning of the
4ailment. Says the News:
Don't trifle with your child's sore
throat 1t may be harmless-and it
may be the center of infection from
which diphtheria will spread through
an. entire neighborhood. Antitoxin
is an almost absolute cure for diph-
theria-when given in time. 1t is
likewise proved preventive, acting
in this regard like temporary vac
cination. With such an agent in the
hands of medical science, all that is
needed is care and cooperation on
the part of parents and teachers to
wipe out the diphtheria scouge all
together.

Water Power Dams.

Says the Shepherdstown Register:
There seems to be good deal of
excitement over the breaking of the
dam on Stony river, in this state, last
week. and though no person was hurt,
great many people were so badly
SCARED that they are now clamoring
fofsiactton to prevent the rebuilding
OF this particular dam and the con-
structtob of others that are proposed
III various parts of West Virglnia.
We think that the construction of
dams for the purpose of developing
power should not be estopped, forulti-
mately this form of energy must turn

must be provided, however. and the

bad rOad9.s.AThtS is tommy rot. Our
roads are, in most instances, very
bad, but not so much so as to cause
young folks to leave their happy
homes
1t would probably be little far
fetched to say that perfect stream
of young men is pouring out of this
state into western states on account of
bad roads, but 1t is a fact that many
young men of the central section of
the state have gone into the farming
sections of Texas, California and Flor
ida who doubtless would have re-
manned on their native heath had the
agricultural possibilities been as
great or nearly as promising as they
are in the sections into which they
went. The Telegram knows of sever
al OF these young men and they are
receiving this newspaper regularly in
their new homes.
1T was the contention of the edi-
tor IN the southern part of the state
TO whose comment the Telegram re-
Gently referred and who made a sim
liar com plaintS that such young men
very likely would have remained in
West Virginialf they had had the
promise of agricultural development
that good roads would have brought
them. No man can run a farm very
nrotitably il the farm is isolated two
thirds OF the year by long stretches
Of mud holes Some sections of the
state are awakening to the need of
better roads and where good roads
are being built there is unmarked de-
crease in the emigration. The Park
ershurg State Journal. for example,
declares thatsyoung men are not now
s1eafing Wood county Because 1t has
good roads and Is building more:
Young men or old men either are
mot doing this from Parkersburg and
wood county but it is also true we
are getting rid of our bad roads the
most rapidly of any county in the
state. Many miles of solid paved ones
are already in evidence for this and
we are going right ahead to build
more. Further, we make this liberal
proposition: if Harrison, Doddrfdge
and Richie will join in we viii have
that old pike leading out of this city
paved all the way to Clarksburg.

doubt a hundred or so feeders will

The proper performance of the duty

any careless handling Of the situation
