FIRE DESTROYS
BARN NEAR HELLTOMN.

Fire, supposed to be OF an incendi-
airy origin destroyed the barn o.
Richard Myers, near Red Banks,
last Friday night between 10 and II
O'Clock.
The barn was a large frame build
ing adjoining wagon shed and q
tool shop, all OF which were destroyed
Together with the building were burn
cd four horses, ten head of young
cattle, thirty one sheep, several COWS,
six hogs, wagon, harness, a. ricul
tural machinery, last years crops OF
hay, corn and wheat and silo with
|ensilage.
A posse had been searching that
day for Mike and Dave Neff.
Mr.. Myers had a warrant
issued for Mike Neff for stealing
meat, upon which charge he had
been convicted, but up to thia
time has escaped arrest. When Sheriff
Stoner attempted to arrest him he wal
assaulted by the Neff gang after
which they made their escape. Three
of them were afterwards arrested ir
Ohio and brought back.
From these circumstances 1t il
generally believed that the Neff ganl
are responsible for the burning o
Mr.. Myers properly. They art
evidently lawless Gang whose out
RACES will sooner or later bring upoE
them retributiOn.

Storm Does Great DAMAGE.

The storm of last Sunday morn
ing, particularly In the western part
of the Valley, was the most severe
ever known in this section. Many
roofs OF houses and barns we're blown
of, q number of barns and other out.
buildings were blown down and many
OF them completely destroyed. AS
far as could be learned 1t extended
from one end of the county to the
other, and from every section great
damage has been reported. A large
number of trees we're blown down In
the woods and in the orchards. Tele-
phone wires were twisted and poles
blown down, in some cases blockad-
ing the roads. Very little stock Is
reported injured.
It is impossible to give the names
of the losers as nearly every farmer
from one end of the county to the other
had either house or barn injured or
destroyed. and, in some cases. both
Fortunately no loss Of life has been
reported.

CHATHAM FARMER
JOINS THE RANKS
Becomes One OF The Ever In
creasing Army of Dreco
Boosters. Tells What
It Did For Him.

No greater Joy could come to per-
son whose health has been impaired
by long years of trials and suffering
than to find blessed medicine that
each day brings him little nearer to
that perfect health that once made
suffering unknown and life con-
slant Joy and pleasure. Could a
person wish for anything better?
Would anything be more welcome?
Such in brief has been the experience
of Mr.. j. II. Edwards, the we'll known
agriculturist Of Chatham, Va.
Every body in his community knows
Mr.. Edwards He is deacon In the
Baptist Church and Is looked up TO
for ADVICE and guidance in matters
closely connected with the affairs Of
his community.
At the age of SO, after years of SUI
fering, he reports wonderful result
from using just two bottles of the new
herb medicine, Dreco. Here is his
testimony:
"Dreco is the only medicine that
has ever started to build me up l
suffered for years with gastritis, rheu
natism and other constitutional dis
orders and l tried SO many different
things that did no earthly good that
l naturally became doubter. So
when I started taking Dreco 1 must
confess was in doubt that 1t would
ever help me. But now we'll know 1t
will do all that Is claimed for it. 1t
helped me wonderfully and l have
gained considerable in flesh since
starting the treatment.
Dreco is worth trying. 1t is in
expensive, harmless. pleasant to take
and contains absolutely no harmful
mineral salts.
Almost all good druggists have
Dreco in stock or will be glad to get
it for you il they are sold out. 1t is
particularly recommended in Wood
stock by Schmitt's Drug Store. adv.

THE CEDAR TREES
To BE CUT DOWN

The Board OF Supervisors held q
meeting last Saturday to ascertain
the sentiments OF the people OF Stone

of the orchards from cedar rust.

burg, Judge F. s. Tavenner, Hon. M.
L. Walton and Mr.. John Pifer, OF
Davis District addressed the Board
and audience upon the subject. They
ga We estimates of the great loss to the
fruit or overs bv the cedar rust, and
earnestly advocated the cutting down
of the trees.
The opposition was represented by
Mr.. Jas. W. Sheetz who made q
characteristic speech. In eloquent
terms, he plead for the protection Of
the birds that hsd found safe har'
Dor from the icy blasts OF winter in
the cedar trees. In laundering invec
tive, he denounced the arguments OF
Judge Tavenner and Mr.. Walton, and
declared that they would deprive the
people of their individual liberty, ant
then In melting tones, he besought tn
Board not to deprive him OF tn
privilege of having little cedar tree
planted at the head of his grave
whose tender rootlets would entwin
themselves around his old bones an
whose branches would be made to re
Isourd as the birds warbled swee
