Way.
For many years the enormous
chestnut crop Of West Virginia has
been waste, with the exception Of
that proportion which has been locally
marketed or devoured by pigs or wild
Dlrds and mammals. The value OF
the chestnut crop o. the state has
been investigated by the Commission
e1 of Agriculture. H. E. Williams. and
IN his new division Of markets he
has included lists of markets for this
crop. BY the time the 1916 year CROP
1s ready for the marked it is expected
That there will be much greater
number of buyers in the West Vir-
s1n1a chestnut centers than in any
other year in the past.
1t is widely known that the pota-
toes grown on the mountain slopes
OF West Virginia are of the finest
quality, and command fine prices. The
marketing OF the crop has heretofore
been haphazard, but Commissioner
Williams has been looking into this
crop also, and has discovered that a
carload OF potatoes has lower
freight rate from Michigan to Clarks-
burg than from Randolph county, one
or the fine potato-growing sections
OF the state, to Clarksburg The aD-
parent injustice of this comparison
lr rates, it is stated, will be readiust-
ed by this time the Randolph potato
crop is ready for the market this
year. Randolph county is endeavor-
ing to build up her potato industry.

The division has been interested
IN the work Of obtaining reductions
in freight rates for beaches shipped
to southern destinations. In 1914 the
peach belt in West Virginia shipped
to Southern cities only about 80 cars,
while in 1915 1873 cars were shipped
Commissioner Williams has issued a
booklet giving the name and address
or every fruit grower in the state,
and the issuance Of this list and the
advertising done in connection with
this industry were reflected in ship

were only about 100 cars.

EYT|NGE' 5 NEW
 MAGAZINE NOW
 ON THE MARKET
Noted Writer Has Kept Promise and is Publishing Neatest Business Maga- zine Yet Placed on Sale. First Copies Here

Louis Victor Eytinge confined be- hind the walls of the penitentiary at Florence, is directly responsible fer the cleverest and best gotten up bus mess magazine, which it has vet been the good fortune of many fhoenicians to encounter
 Some months ago, Eytinge an hounced that he was about to bring out business magazine. which would open the eyes of the business world. He has certainly kept his promise. and in Postage" the name of his periodical he has far surpassed the efforts of other laborers in his lire The new magazine is devoted to a widely varied list of subjects. Its statement of policy which of course is the product of Eytinge's fertile brain. says in part as follows: "Postaee will not enter into any controversies or diStussions regarding the merits of various mediums. It is the intention to allow every contributor to express 1 his ideas freely in order that the widest variations of opinion may find a hearing. Postage believes in calling names-readers are entitled to know how and where they can ob- tain work whose quality is fitted 10 their needs. Postage reserves the right to censor all advertisements cf- fered for publication"
 | From the standpoint of the printer. the magazine is a work of art. Neat ness and compactncss are the pre- dominant characteristics. Taking it in perspective. it lacks nothing. there is just enough of everything to ma ie it balance.
 l In it's advertisements, it is blazing a new trail. There is not an ad in the magazine which is not artistically gotten up. The cuts several of which are done in colors, add another dis tinctive characteristic, making Pos tage appear more like a popular fic- tion monthly. than staid business mans magazine.
 1 Although Eytinge is unavOidably de , tained in Arizona, he will be the heart and soul as well as the brains 1 of Postage. In addition to conduct ing the editorial policy of the paper, he will be contributor In the first issue is one of his well known snappy articles. carrying a punch all the time.
