SMALLER CHESTNUT CROP
IS EXPECTED This YEAR

Owners of chestnut woods state
that the crop this year Will be much
smaller In many sections than last
year The nuts are not so large. while
the burrs are only half filled with
them The growers down-State have
commenced to harvest the crop. but
they do not expect the largest yield
until after a heavy frost. The light
frosts of a few weeks ago were not
sufficient to do the work. The woods
owners state that in most sections
of the lower counties the trees have
been badly affected with the chestnut
blight as a result Of which the trees
arc dying rapidly. They state that
unless some remedy is found to stop
the ravages of the disease, the trees
will be thing of the past in very
few years. During the past two sea-
sons large numbers Of trees have
been affected and died.

Industry In Belington.

That the city of Belington, will in
the near future have canning fac
tory, now seems to be an assured
fact as several of our citizens have
taken the matter in hand and are
making arrangements toward that
end. A meeting Of farmers of the
county has been called to be held
at the Office of Capt. f. P. Rease,
opposite the w. M. Depot, on Satur-
day evening, and it is hoped that
there will be large attendance of
the citizens of the county who desire
to make more money from their
farms. Don't fail to attend this
meeting Saturday evening and lend
your assistance to this enterprise. 1t
means a greater and larger demand
for tomatoes and other vegetables
that can be grown in this county.

IN HOLE FOR MONEY.
Legislature Failed to Provide Suf.
icient Revenue to Run State.

CHARLESTON, w. VA, Mar. 49,.
Il is rumored about the city today
that owing to the failure of the Leg
islature to provide sufficient revenue
the state will be required to defer
payment of claims, including saba
ries of officers and attaches of the
state. The Board Of Public Works
held a meeting yesterday, but beyond
the admission that the financial con-
dition of the state was dicussed no
statement could besecured from any
OF the members. 1t is known that
very little revenue will be received
by the state before July /.
The Constitution gives the Board
Of Public Works the power, it is con-
tended, to borrow money in case Of
an emergency, but that since the leg
islature was advised Of the condition
Of the finances and made no provi-
sion to provide funds for immediate
use the Board of Public Works is
without authority to borrow.
IL the rumors are well founded sal
AIRY checks will not be issued on the
25th Of the months, as has been the
custom.

FARMERS CAN GET
RID OF WILD GARLIC.
United States Experimental Station
Gives Out Some Useful Informa-
tion to Local Farmers.

Local farmers and dairymen know
what bothersome task it is to get
rid of wild garlic in the woods and
the fields which they often pasture.
They also know that it is not desir-
able feature to have customers COM
planning about the milk and the but
ter tasting. The farmers and dairy
men are given much useful informa-
ton by the United States government
experiment station on farms and soil.
Experiments show that wild garlic
can be eradicated by spraying with
orchard heating oil. The method is
practicable, not very expensive and
entirely effective if done at the right
time and in the right way. The di-
rections for spraying are as follows:
Spray while the garlic PLANTS are
in the tender leaf stage and before
they begin to form heads. The proper
time in West Virginia, under normal
conditions of the season is between
the fifteenth of April and the first of
May. Spraying done much later when
the plants are heading out is almost
useless as it scarcely Injuries the hard
fruiting stalks and the oil cannot
reach the secondary underground
bulbs which by this time become
separated from the parent bulb. AS
the oil kills most other plants besides
the wild garlic, it obviously cannot be
used on fields occupied by growing
crops. For the best results, it is ad-
visable to pillow the garlic infested
land in the fall. This will turn under
and get rid of dead vegetation and
other obstacles that might interfere
with the proper application of the
spray. 1t will also encourage the
growth of the resting bulbs in the
soil as well as the bulblets on the
surface of the ground, and give&the
best growth of garlic that can be
obtained.
Two years ago it was the good for
tune of the botanical department. to
fall in with a representative farmer
and a commercial firm who joined the
department in a cooperative study
of the wild garlic problem. This
triple alliance consisting of the far
mer, represented by Mr.. Jacob Corn
bach. a man of wide knowledge and
experimence, together with great en-
tnusiasm. of the commercial firm, re-
presented by DR.. Fl. E Horton, man
of collegiate training, ,f acqualn,
lance with both European and
American agriculture, and with ex-
parience ii weed spraying investssN-
tions, and the forces of the state
experiment station, made it possible
to bring to bear on the problem
large resource of knowledge and IN
vention.
