To the Editor of the Dispatch: Warfield, Ya, March 1,1906 ?If you will allow me space mjourpaper I will tell my old Lexington friends something about Virginia. We had a good little snow Tues- j day, and it is very cold now, though we have had a nice winter: cen't complain about cold weather. It begins to look like spring. You con hear the buds whistling. Well, Lexington friends, I guess you are turning the soil but the Virginia farmer has not started yet. Tney don't have to plow as early as you all do, though they raise no cottou up here. They never saw it grow. They raise corn, wheat, tobacco and peanuts. They are with their tobacco like you all are about cotton?they raise more of it because it brings more money. It briDgs from 15 to 35 cents a pound, and there is shure a lot of it raised. I see in the Dispatch where they are trying to get the Troley car line from Columbia to Aiken, and I hope they will succeed. It will be of great benefit to eorie of the Lexington people. You can talk about railroads ' but they build them in Virginia, ora hmtdincr one from Norfolk, AUV ~ r? V*, to the coal fields in Pmnylvania It is calied the Tide Water road, and is to be completed by 1907. It will be a fine road when finished. Contractors are struDg all along the right-cf-av*ay. I wotk with A & C. Wright, contractors. They have a fine outfit. Tbev have on this job about eighty mules working with wheelers and a euarn shovel. Tne wheeler gang has completed their work and moved on up the lice about fifty odd milee, to a little town called MaharaD, Va, where they will wheel the dirt again. Capfc A. & C. Wright has twenty-two miles up there to grade. They have a steam shovel at Atlanta, Ga. it has about fiuished its work and will go on the other contract. I would be glad to hear from any I of my old Laxington friends as it has | been a little while since I have heard from them. Mr. Editor, I will tell you a Joke on a Yankee in the city of Washington. :Once there was a Yankee sitting on the corner of a stieet with both hands and feet cff, and a Southern gentlemen walked up to him and gave him a five dollar note snd walked cff a little waysand turned around and went back to the Yankee and gave him another five dollar note, and the Yankee says to the gentleman, "why is it that you are so much better to me than my own peoplt-?" In reply he said, "6imply because you are the first Yankee I ever saw that was fixed exactly right." Much success to the Editor of the Dispatch and its many readers. F:ank tlarman. Clears the Complexion. Orino Laxative Fruit Syrup stimulates the liver and thoroughly cleanses the system and clears the complexion of pimples and blotches. It is the best laxative for women and children as it is mild and pleasant, and does not gripe or sicken. Orino is much superior to pills, aperient waters and all ordinary cathartics as it does not irritate the stomach and bowels. For sale by Kaufman Drug Co. * ? Animosity is Spreading.
