After many years of comparative

the old leech farms have long dis

than by the application Of these
blood-sucking creatures. The "ani-
mated mustard plasters" are export
ed in baskets from Turkey, and Paris

kElNs< IN Virginia was
/; ynl WI originally
VgN&zf 1<IS/ portion of
VSN>s~[W Virginia, the
/! ~ SEMHSS Old Dominion
!: Colony. While its history is nat
urally yoked up with that of the
Mother State, there are many
!: points In which the two sections
/: of Virginia were divergent and
!: 1t was for this reason that West
; Virginia finally became a sepa-
rate state.
/? The first white man who prob
ably penetrated the wilderness
of this Western region was John
Laderer, a German surgeon, who
went on a tour Of exploration in
1869. In the same year, La Sale
sailed up the Ohio and landed
at several points in the present
state. There was little colonial
tion until 1872, when Scotch and
Irish Adventures began to fill
Western Virginia. They were
encouraged but little, and, IN
fact, the King in 1888 declared
that this part of the colony was
Indian country and could not
rightfully be settled. COLOMBIA
ton continued, however, and Bit
ter warfare was waged against
the Indians and the French who
had come down from the North.
In 1774 the battle Of PIT. Pleasant
was fought, which was one of
the bloodiest Of Indian conflicts.
The backwoodsmen who set
tied in the Western part Of Vir-
ginia were entirely different
types Of men from the wealthy
slave owners along the coast.
Jealousies between the two Sec
tions arose and the Western
countries felt great dissatisfac-
ton at the way Virginia was
governing them. The most
marked point of disagreement
was over the slavery question,
and 1t was because Of this that,
when Virginia seeded from the
Unicn in 1861, West Virginia
took matters in its own hands.
Delegates met at Wheeling. drew
up a separate constitution, and
declared their independence.
Their, application for admission
into the Union was accepted by
Lincoln, and in 1868 West Vir-
ginfa became the thirty-ffth
state.
1t is often called the "Pan-
handle State" on account of its
shape. Its area is PATIO square
miles, and it has eight presiden-
tial electors.

TREES
| think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing
breast.
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray:
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
