PITT BOYS WIN SUCCESS.
Some Will Soon Move
Into Their New Building
Wherever The Reflector, man
strikes any of our home boys
who have cast their lot in other
places, it is always a pleasure to
find them getting along well and
making success of their business.
While in Norfolk Friday we took
enough time off from the
ties to look over the new building
being erected by Whichard Bros.
Co., wholesale dry goods and
notion dealers there. This firm
has had such a successful career
that though they have moved
once to larger quarters, it was
not long before they found them-
again cramped for room to
accommodate their growing
business. To provide for this
they decided to erect a modern
building, and for this purpose
secured a desirable lot on Ran-
street near the Atlantic
hotel. They now have nearly

institution, between

strikes any of our home boys
who have cast their lot in other
places, it is always a pleasure to
find them getting along well and
making success of their business.
While in Norfolk Friday we took
enough time off from the

that though they have moved

not long before they found them-
again cramped for room to
accommodate their growing
business. To provide for this
they decided to erect a modern
building, and for this purpose
secured a desirable lot on Ran-
street near the Atlantic
hotel. They now have nearly
completed a splendid building

INLAND WATERWAYS CONVENTION
By far the best meeting the
Inland Waterway- Association
has held was in Norfolk
last wet k. The attendance was
very large, and more interest
was awakened in the movement
than has been known heretofore.
About the best speech made at
this convention was by Congress-

one of the leading spirits there.
Mr. Small spoke on Thursday
emphasized the need of
mediate work on that portion of
the waterway between Norfolk

The most notable day in the
history of Norfolk was Friday,
when President Tuft went down
to speak on the waterways and
other questions, and to be the
guest of the city for the day.
The city was beautifully
rated and every mark of respect
honor was shown the
visitor. Features of the
day were a military and naval
parade, an oyster roast at Cape
Henry, a display of
and a smoker to the
members of the press.
dent Tuft spoke three times and
at every appearance was given u
ovation. Norfolk did her
self great credit in the way the
president, the delegates to the
waterways convention, the
of the press and the thous-
ands of visitors were entertain-
ed.
There were a thousand covers
at the smoker given at night in
honor of the press. Besides
tors from other places, there
were some seventy odd from
Washington City, among in

an average of forty bushels per

what modern farming can do on

It is not best to let land be idle

farmers should be careful to

In fact, with either of these Player Pianos
as a companion, you have the advantage of
playing the music music you best
like, and playing it in that rich, full manner,
bringing out the delicate beauties of the melody
which even many skilled pianists fail to develop,
and this, possible with the veriest novice, with-
out your knowing one note from another.
We will take your deaf and dumb piano in exchange.

Carrying out the idea
Mr. explained the

The effect was to show that, re-
the gifts of nature in

the United States could in

cause victory is always first

showed that such general self-

whole South to more effective
announcement of its resources

Ticks Yield of Beef and Milk.
A cattle tick that has reached
the engorged stage weighs about
grains, about 1,600 such
ticks a pound. cattle
in the tick region often carry
many thousands of these blood I
tusking and as each
tick during the period of its at-
to an animal draws
more than its own
weight in it can be teen
that these ticks an
enormous drain on the cattle
which they infest. This accounts
for the fact that under such con-
it is impossible to fatten
cattle even on rich pasture d
with an abundance of good feed.
A large part of the nourishment
that should go toward producing
beef and milk is consumed by
the ticks. In addition to the
of blood and nourishment there
is the never ceasing irritation
caused by ticks, so that the
existence of the infested
is beset with continuous suffer-
this of course also tends
to keep them in poor condition.
The shrinkage in the milk
production of a cow harboring
many ticks will average one
quart a and the loss
sioned thereby at cents a quart
for the dairy cattle
out of more than 4.000,000 below
the quarantine line would amount
to a day. Counting
milking for each cow to the
year would make the loss from
this cause per annum.
Full information as to how to
get rid of the ticks, including
directions for the preparation of
dips and sprays, the arrange meat
of pastures, etc-, may be obtain-

farm demonstration work in the

the best country papers in the

speaker- He clearly showed the
benefit to come to farmers
