TELLSWHY ALFALFA
WASN'T MENTIONED
President of Club Gives Reason
For Omitting Famous Grass
From Program of Farmers
Meeting Horse Day.

The question has been put to the
writer, why the meeting OF the Alfal-
Ia Club, horse sales day, was it that
alfalfa growing was not discussed,
mere were several reasons, to berin
with, the meeting was held for Ihe
purpose OF discussing and promoting
more interest III better farming gen
orally. MIR. L. o. Sandy, the alfalfa
speaker of the occasion, wired us mt
the last moment that he was unable
10 attend the meeting. Several local
ahal1a growers promised to make
snort talks ON their experience with
alfalfa, but they for good and sutii-
cient reasons were not able to be Mt
the meeting. Owing to the time tn
ken up by the Democratic meeting
our time was cut short, and we did
not begin to cover the subjects we
mad anticipated. The writer has never
grown alfalfa, but why our alfalfn
champion, Mr.. Leslie, didn't sneak
forth is puzzle to everyone, as he
is the greatest alfalfa booster i'm the
county. The meeting was we'll attend
ed, and will do lots OF good. 1t is only
a beginning and we are going to keep
II up II we can get the cooperation
Oh the farmers OF the county.
we are lngging behind in our farm
ing methods. 1t we give one-half MS
much thought to better farming ma
we do to the selection of our stock.
our county would be more prosperous.
some farmers say we can't grow
alfalfa in Tazewell; it took Kansas
and Colorado ten years to get it start
ed III those states. We would not
have to 30 through this long strug-
gle, as they have solved the problem
Tor us. One farmer in Eastern Vir-
ginla has five hundred acres in alfalfa
The crop brought $4,000 last year
Another farmer is netting six per
cent on his alfalfa grown on land at
Si,OOO per acre valuation. Is Eastern
Virginia any better adapted to alfalfa
than this county? Our best experts
say no. The most successful alfalfa
growers claim that alfalfa will grow
IN Southwest Virginia abundantly but
that we must go at il in the right
manner. Just any old slip shod way
want do. The soil should be fertile
and well drained, full of humus, and
rich in lime and phosphorus.
Don't stand Off and sny alfalfa won't
grow in Tazewell. Go to work and
put out an acre, and if you fail the
hrst year, try it again the next. If
1t pays in other sections it will pay i'm
Tazewell. Alfalfa hay is being re-
tailed in this section right now mt
$40 per ton, almost as much as wheat
bran.
The Alfalfa Club can furnish the
best of information gotten up by the
man who knows how to grow it, to
those who want to try an acre, more
or less, this season.

He MAN
Wise County Man Nominated for
Congress BY Acclamation in
Convention Marked by Har-
mony and Good Feeling.

Hon. r. Tate Irvine, of Big Stone
Gap, was the unanimous choice of the
Democrats in session at Bristol on
Wednesday for the nomination for
Congress from the Ninth district. His

and was seconded by Hon. VIM. N.
Wcrth, of Tazcwell; Senator B. Y.
buchanan, of Smyth; Judge Price. of
Bristol; Capt. Jas. l.. White, of Abb
ingdon, and II. y. Bruce, of Wise.
Governor Henry C. Stuart was
chairman Of the meeting.
From accounts in the newspapers
and reports from delegates who were
present, the Bristol convention was
specially enthusiastic and harmonious.
SO fur MS appeared ut any time there
was not the slightest hint of "divi-
sion and strife expected and by some
predicted.
Governor Stunrt presided, and made
fine address. Hon. r. Tate Irvine
of Big Stone Gap, was nominated by
acclamntion, and was enthusiastically
unanimous. No other name was men

sentiment of the convention was fine,

everyone to everyone, and the man
who declined to grasp and shake is
asked to "go away back" and take

The w. c. t. u. and Grape Juice.


The w. G. Il. u. met on Tuesday
afternoon at the home of Mrs. II. e..
Peery, at North TaZewell, and had q
very harmonious and enthusiastic
meeting until the time came to pass
around the refreshments, when, be-
hold, grape juice Instead of the con-
ventional tea or lemonade, mine host
ess, Mrs. Peery, served in dainty re-
ceptacle the most luscious, appetlzinp
grape juice. AS the society bars ali
drinks, even sweet cider, this move
was an innovation, and the ladies cast
inqulring, significant glances at each
other, as they slipped the fruit of the
vine-all except one. Our informa-
ant states that Sister O'Keeffe re-
fused to partake, not only so, she
proceeded then and there TO give the
ladies a lecture, standing out against
what she believed to be violation of
the spirit of their vow.
Someone has suggested that Mr..
Bryan's example OF using grape Juice
on his table at public functions was
partially, at least, responsible for
this innovation, if innovation it was.
1t is also remembered that the w.
G.. L. U. pledge, while it includes
cider, however fresh and sweet, SAYS
nothing about grape juice.
AT any rate, these good ladies drank
it down, and felt none the less loyaI
after the pleasant and harmless To-
ton.
Let it be distinctly understood that
what is written here is in no sense a
criticism, only an item of news given
the reporter of this paper.

Sunday School Sunday.

The executive committee of the
County Association has suggested the
first Sunday in April as "Go-to-S Sun
day-School Sunday" This is also
"Go-to- Church" Sunday. Let this
first Sunday in April be general
rally day in every town and commu-
nifty throughout the county. Don't
neglect it. Let every superintendent
and teacher, every preacher and every
body else, talk it up between now
and that time, and crowd the Sunday
schools and churches on that day

Object Of The Alfalfa Club.

The ObJect OF the Alfalfa Club is
not only for the purpose of creating
interest in alfalfa growing, but in
better farming generally. There are
few counties in the state where the
farmers are not organized.
Let us get together and improve
our farming methods. 1t will help
US to build and maintain good roads,
good churches and schools, and make
us better citizens.

She trusted him implicitly, so
much so that when he said a daily
conference at the Office would be
necessary, Miss Nancy did not de-
muir. But the conferences did not
seem very businesslike. Yet they
were sufficiently pleasant to be con-
tinued after Office hours, at Miss
Nancy's home. And long before the
month was ended they were sure
that they loved each other.

The girl rose from her chair and
fingered her gloves neTvously. She
turned toward the door. Then she
came suddenly back. She sat down
at his side. Tell mel" she whispered.

Miss Nancy took leave of him in
some further confusion. In fact, when
she had gone, the young man felt
that he would like to have the case
spin out for a year-with daily con-
situations. For year? Forever.
AS for Nancy Lawrence, we are
not entitled to inquire into the state
of her feelings, since a girl is not
permitted to have any until they are
evoked by formal declaration. But
when she had turned the corner she
fairly danced up the street home

A brief examination of the will

Indications Point TO New Factory Al
though No offbcial Statements
Could be Secured
Last Night
ARE NoN-CoMMITTAL
Conferences Were Held During tho
Day and Chicago Men Met
Executive Board Last
Night.

Although nothing official could be
obtained from interested parties last
night, Indications point to the secur-
ing Of another industry for Keokuk.
Lincoln Brooke Of Chicago, who has
both general and financial interests in
Keokuk was here yesterday. 1t Is un>
derstood that Mr.. Brooke has inter
ested some Chicago people IN the IDEA
Of locating in Keokuk.
Several conferences we're held yes
terday between Mr.. Brooke and the
local people. Last night there was a
conference between Mr.. Brooke anu
the executive committee Of the Indus
trial association at the association
rooms.
Mr.. Brooke was seen last night by
representative of The Gate City
after the conference, who asked him
If he had statement to make con-
corning his errand to Keokuk.
Mr.. Brooke said that he could not
give out anything as that would be
| in the province of the local associa-
ton and that he preferred that what
ever should be given out should come
! from the Industrial association.
"You know I make frequent trips
to Keokuk, and am more or less in
terested in a number OF things" Mr..
Brooke said.
Industrial association officers were
likewise non-committal. However,
from sources that are believed to be
authentic it is learned that the con-
ference was over an industrial propo-
sition which is seriously considering
the idea Of locating in Keokuk.
The frequency with which indus
trial bodies investigate conditions IN
Keokuk is simply proof of the energy
with which the Industrial association
is carrying on its campaign to enlarge
Industrial Keokuk.
