Tonic Knew Cincinnati AS
A Village

When James Dryer, 425 Gin
ton street, Cincinnati, O., gave a
statement about Vola-Tonic for
publication recently the entire
city of Cincinnati was interested.
Mr.. Dryer, who is 90 years old,
moved to Cincinnati in 1885 and
knew that city as a village of
about 1000. He probably is one
of the oldest residents of the
city yet living and everybody
was interested in what he had to
say about VIOLA Tonic.
Stating that Vola-Tonic had
made him feel years younger, Mr..
Dryer went OH to explain his case
fully.
Unfortunately, I had influenza
last winter and have not been
strong since" Mr.. Dryer said
"My vitality was low due to my
age and the influenza further
weakened me. | couldn't sleep
well ana was very nervous at
times.
''Vola-Tonic is excellent for
elderly people and for anybody
else who needs more strength
There's wisdom in the words of
a 95-year-old man. Years before
most of us were born, James
/ Dryer was studying conditions
and accommodating knowledge
You can have faith and confidence
in what he says. And he says
l VIOLA onirs is excellent for any
body needing more strength. II

room in which will be a couple Of
large itnbs, the water for which viii
pass through heating tank afford
ing battles at any temperature desired
This is the only real enterprise
that has ever come to Bolar and in
fact the only one of the kind to High
land county.
A fine opening is here for So
room hotel-a demand also for bet
ter roads as the travel to this point
will be by automobile, our nearest r.
r. station being Hot Springs a dis
tance of % miles.
We cannot urge too strongly that
I our Bath authorities carry out then
plan of putting the road from Warm
Springs toward Monterey across the
Rocky Ridge on a good grade. This
road was surveyed by the State High
way Commissioner and the county
requisition on the State for convict
labor to help build this piece of much
needed road before the world war,
but on account of the war this en-
terprise was allowed to lapse. We
urge they take it up now and push it
to a finish.
We cannot close this appeal for a
better road from our, nearest R.. r.
station witout calling attention to
the urgent need of better road from
Monterey, the county seat Of High
land toward Warm Springs. This
road would lead down Jacksons River
and pass in about two miles of Bolar.
Our Highland fathers have spent
and are spending $4,000 on about 8
miles IF road leading off this Monte
rey Warm Springs road at Wander
pool to Meadow Dale-if this money
had been put on the main thorough
flare between the two county seats, 1t
would have been well and wisely
spent, it would have been working
Jointly with the Bath authorities and
have done more, much more, for the
people of Highland, giving us anothe
and shorter road to the R. R. than we
now have. ~.
This would encourage people of
wealth to invest at Bolar, and if only
for summer residence would very
materially help the people of the
whole county.
The road building toward Meadow
Dale leads to no where, to no outlet
for the general traffle Of the county.
And while we are glad to have such
Improvement in roads 9nd congratu-
late the few people who occasionally
travel over it. we must insist on a
wider and wiser view when public
money Is used, and we trust at least
something will be done shortly to
better the condition of the road lead
ing from Vanderpool toward the Bath
COUNTY line.
This enterprise Of DR.. Bragg's is
only q beginning-others are sure to
follow: " ...:..
To give an Idea of the value OF such
enterprise in q direct way beneitting
the people of this immediate neigh
borhood, the Dr. SO far has spent for
labor alone near $500, the total ex-
pense running close to $4,000.

II. C. Grasty as an Independent can
6idate for Congress was passed by
The Augusta County Farmers union,
which. during Mr.. Grasty's tenure
of office as president, grew from an
infant organization to strong union
having nearly one theusad members:
Whereas every farmer III Viz
GINA is ready to do his part during
the era of reconstruction that lies
ahead Of us. and we, the members Of
the Augusta county farmers union
have learned crol.i experience that
without an organizations to protect
our interests ct washington both The
producer and consumer will suffer on
account of the profteers, and
Whereas out of 531 members Of
congress there are said to be not more
than a dozen members who even
claim to be farmers, the Augusta
county farmers union is CT the opin-
ion that the time has come when the
farmers should have at least an eqG.t
able amount IT representation in con-
grecs. We do net ask for any special
favors. but we do ask for q square
deal; and
Whereas our former president,
the Hon. J. H. C. Grasty, has done
more than any man in Augusta coun-
ty to build up the farmers union at
home and In Rockbridge county, and
Whereas we know him intimately
and have absolute confidence in HIN
and his ability we, the farmers of
Augusta county, hereby nominate
and endorse him as an Independent
candidate fer congress and call On
our brother farmers in the other
twelve counties Of the Tenth congress
sional district to support him at he
polls"

6er-to shoulder and elect Grasty, the /,
profteers will get their profits"

Readers of the Recorder doubtless
noticed the announcement as to the
recent discovery that oysters may be
Matched and grown right at ones
fireside and in his own backyard, and
it may be that this discovery, along
with Henry Ford's price-tumble, may
have helped to jolt the H. c. of l..
loose at the top.
As to homegrown oysters, at this
altitude and so far removed from the
saltwater haunts of the btYaies,
HighlanGers will do well to look in
to the matter fully before de-
Gliding to order a hen oyster and set
ting of eggs. The meager details
given would indicate that the expert
ment has barely reached An interest
ing point. It is asserted that one
o. ter produces millions of eggs each
scaa,n. OF course that means that
WHEY would get nothing done but
gather eggs. The statement, as we
have said, is lacking in some details,
but, prestirs .iy, the hen oyster is
not expected to cacic1e eyery time she
deposits an egg. She just couldn't
do it, SD that fact is selfevident. Just
think of the possibility of crossing
them with the barn-yard fowl, and
eggs at SO eefls per! A fortune i'll a

Not a few Highlanders will dis
agree with much of the argument US
ed by J. H. Burns in his Bolar letter,
most Of which relates to private
enterprise and savors strongly of free
advertising.
In his zeal to boost Bolar he takes
untenable ground both as to High
lands logical outlet and the relative
merits of the Vanderpool-Back Creek
road. A thoroughfare connecting
Highland and Bath is very important
and desirable, and in the course OF
time it will be link in the Cumber-
land-Hot Springs route, but it can
not at this time claim precedence
over q road which is a means by
which "a large section reaches the
county-seat and the county's natural
and logical outlet-the S. & P. pike.
