JAPANESE HONOR
PERRY'S MEMORY
Demonstration in Commem-

Shimoda IS Years Ago.
BY the Associated Press.


SHIMODA, Japan. April 17.-One
of the most spontaneous demonstra-
tionS ever given an American in
Japan occurred here yesterday on the
occasion of the visit of Edgar a. Ban
croft, the American Ambassador, in
commemoration of the 10th anniVer-
sary of the landing at this little place
of Commodore Mathew c. Perry,
which was followed by the opening of
Japan to the commerce of the world.
The Ambassador, with other mem
bers of the embassy and some Ameri-
can guests, arrived on a destroyer,
and were met by local dignitarieS and
hundreds of children bearing Ameri-
can flags.
The Ambassador burned incense at
the Buddhist Shrine, where the first
American consul lived, and paid his
respects at the graves of the Ameri-
can pioneers of 1855.

FALSE ADVERTISING HURTS THE
COUNTY

Discriminatory and misleading
maps and booklets descriptive of the
Shenandoah Valley seem to be a part
of the money-making schemes which
more or less reputable publishers are
sending out. Why maps should be
distorted in the interest of individ-
uals, and for selfish purposes can
only be explained by the desire of
publishers to sacrifice accuracy to
greed.
Shenandoah County has within its
borders one of the greatest, if not
the greatest natural wonders in the
South. The unbiased and unpreju-
diced opinion of thousands of people
who have seen all of the great at
fractions of the Valley is that Shen-
andoah Caverns excels all others in
beauty, in diversity, and in the gor-
geousness of underground forma-
tions. 1t is the only attraction in the
county, which has an international
reputation, and brings to the county
thousands of tourists.
And yet incidents of the unfair
discrimination against this county's
outstanding attraction are frequently
noted. AS an instance, one of Rich
mond's leading hotels issued book
let purporting to set forth the worth
while places in the Shenandoah VAL
ley. Purposely, or inadvertently, the
Shenandoah Caverns were left off the
map. Probably the leading map pub
fishing house in America has just
issued what is ostensibly an accurate
map of this area. The map indi-
Gates Endless Caverns as being be-
tween Mt. Jackson and New Market
and puts Shenandoah Caverns south
OF Endless. Other maps show Shen-
andoah Caverns, using the scale upon
which are maps are based, to be six
or eight miles from the Valley Turn
pike.
These are but a few examples of
misinformation which are being per-
petuated upon tourists, Ell h er
through ignorance or a design to in
jure the county's big esset, Shenan-
doah Caverns.
As matter of fact, just about
one-half of the publicity which is be-
ing printed about the Valley is un-
reliable and is usually written by
men who either have no desire to
state facts or in an effort to make
money subordinate these facts to un-
fair Influence. So far as is posi-
Bile the people in Shenandoah County
and in fact in any other section,
should do all within their power to
misinformation of this
by telling the truth, and
when it is told this county will not
suffer by comparison with the rest
of the Valley.

KEEP UP THE ROADS

The use of public road funds in
Shenandoah County has frequently
been the target for public criticism
To a certain extent a lot of this is
justified, as it is evident from posi-
tive actualities that a great deal OF
money is being unwisely and non.
benefcially spent on our highways
One cannot help but recognize this
fact, when he notices the negligence
that is shown by the authorities in
failing to keep the roads we already
have, under repair. In the past {
number of first-class highways have
been constructed in this county, but
it appears that the supervisors idea
of economy and progressiveness is, to
build good road, and afterwards
let it take care of itself. Conse
quently, most of the highways in this
section are continually in bad shape
and require as much money, labor
and material to put them in good
condition again, as it did in the first
cost of construction This means that
we are not only put to to an un.
necessary expense, but that we are
losing the good roads service
demanded.
The trouble seems to have been in
an improper use of the maintenance
fund. The supervisors, with the
permission of the State Engineer
have at times applied this money in
trying to get more mileage instead
of using it for the purpose intended.
In some respects this may be all
right, but the business of building a
good road and afterwards letting it
go down does not seem the wisest
course to pursue nor the way to get
the best results out of an expenditure
OF our road funds. No scheme where
by, we try to do more, than we are
able at sacrifice of what we have
already done, is going to succeed.
1t reminds one of the Esopian fable
OF the boy and filberts, when he
stuck his hand in a pitcher, and got
it SO full of nuts that he couldn't
pull it out again.

bronze backs menu. This minnow
supply fed the little bass that stayed
in the creeks, and through natural
distribution, were washed down reg
ularly by high water, as a source OF
food supply for the larger fish in the
main stream below.
Today these conditions h av e
changed. 1t is a rarity to see min
now of any kind in the river and 1t is
an absolute fact that every little
stream in this county has been seined
out so thoroughly that it is doubtful
whether a dozen good bait could De
caught in any of them.
Through carelessness, thousands
of minnows were destroyed by fish
ermen, who invariably took more
than their buckets would hold, and
as result, half of them would per-
ish before they reached the fishing
grounds. Then, too, lot of fellows
while catching bait would only pick
out the larger ones and dump the
balance on the bank to die. There
was no necessity for this. Such
wantonness is costing the sport of
bass fishing. The fishermen who took
bass out of this stream last season,
will recall that the most of them
were poor and underweight, and that
they did not display their usual
gameness. The reason for this is
that they were underfed and did not
have normal strength. Inch for
inch and pound for pound, the black
bass is the gamest fish that swims,
but when you cut off his food sup
ply and starve him into weakness he
loses his beauty, and that admirable
strength, and quickness that makes
him the most sought-for of all game
fish. A bass is like anything else;
if they are not fed properly they viii
not grow nor increase in number
and in a short while will become ex
tinct. 1t is time that we awaken t.
the fact that if we expect to have
game fish we must take care of them
and it looks as though it would b.
the better plan for US, to restock thu
smaller streams with food supply TO
the bass, rather than put more bas
in the main stream.

SEND KELLY BACK

Shenandoah County is fortunate
in having in the Virginia Legislature
a clean, capable and conscientious
representative who. although men,
Der of the minority, won the esteem
and support of the majority in the
last House of Delegates He is a man
who subordinated partisanship to
whatever was best for his constitu-
ency and before advocating any
measure or measures weighed well
the merits involved and voted in the
interests of the people whom he rep
resented
Whatever mistakes, if any, he may
have made could not be chargeable
to any selfish or self-serving motive,
and as consequence the delegate
from Shenandoah County ranked
high among the states lawmakers.
In his private and his brief public
life, Nehemiah Kelly has maintained
that high sense of honor and loyalty
to his fellow-citizens which has in
creased his popularity and wor
friends irrespective of party affilia
ton.
1t is an undeniable fact that the
frequent changing of representation
in lawsmaking bodies impairs sucf
representation, for the novitiate al
a legislator has neither the infiuenc,
nor the grasp of public affairs as thu
seasoned member In ordinary yer
biage, one "Must learn the ropes
before he is in a position to accom-
plish much, and learning the ropes
is a matter which cannot be accom-
plished in one short term.
The Herald, therefore, is per
suaded that it would be for the bes
interests of Shenandoah County t
send Mr.. Kelly back to Richmond a
its representative
1t is a question of the man, an
certainly neither political party vii
sacrifice either prestige or infiuenc
by obliterating party lines and select
ing a representative such as Nehe
miah Kelly has proven to be to sue
coed himself

VALLEY FARMERS AT STOCK
YARDS

Grading of livestock and various
packing processes were demonstrated
Monday at the Union Stockyards and
at packing plants of Baltimore to
500 farmers from Rockbridge, Au-
gusta and Rockingham counties, Vir-
ginia.
The object of the demonstration
was to have the farmers study and
acquire more knowledge of maxket-
ing conditions. Most of them are
prominent cattlemen, and large
amount of the meat eaten in Balti-
more is said to have been raised on
their farms.
The demonstration began in the
morning at the Union Stockyards
with lecture on safeguarding by
James K. Wallace, of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture. Mr. Wallace
illustrated his lecture by using live
cattle, hogs and sheep as models.
He pointed out to the farmers the
advantages of properly grading the
animals according to their weight.
and the disadvantages of not grad
ing them
After the demonstration, which
lasted for two hours, the farmers
were conducted on a tour of inspec-
ton through the stockyards. Robert
L. Showacre, manager of the Union
Stockyards, acted as their guide.
Other members of the stockyards or
ganization and number of commits
sion men also went with them to
answer any questions they might
: ask.
The party then visited the packing
plants. They were shown how cattle
were killed. how their bodies were
kept fresh and pure in the cooler, .
and how other packing operations
; were carried through
