J. Scott, Bedford City, Va.; Edward C. Burks, Bedford City, Va. The "list of stockholders" is growing rapidly and contains some of the most prominent breeders in America. The company has purchased a large stock farm in the eastern portion of Bedford County, near Bellevue, comprising about 830 acres, upon which is located a fine old colonial mansion, which will be the residence of the general manager. The cost of this property was $30,000. It is the intention of the company to purchase adjacent lands from time to time until they acquire 5,000 acres, all of which will be devoted to raising standard types of pure-bred live stock. The system of operating the company's establishment is very complete. A separate "department" will be established for each breed. The "departments," which are first in importance and establishment, are those devoted to propagating standard types of the following breeds: Percheron horses, Shorthorn cattle, Dorset sheep and Poland-China swine. In addition to these there will be "departments" not so completely established at the beginning. One of these will be devoted to breeding heavy harness horses of the standard type. Hackneys will be the breed used most extensively, although a few of the more desirable specimens of the American trotter may be given a trial later on. The American saddle horse will be alloted a "department," as he is undoubtedly as useful and necessary to the farmers and stockmen of Virginia as any breed of horses. A "department" will also be reserved for the thoroughbred, his purpose being to propagate a class of stallions suitable to sire heavy-weight hunters—the sort that bring the long prices on the Eastern markes. Attention will also be given to mule raising. All mares that do not fill the requirements of a given standard will be relegated to the "department" devoted to the production of this useful hybrid. As time goes on and the demands increase, the field of operations will be extended. If found necessary or believed advisable, other breeds will be introduced from time to time as the circumstances may warrant. However, it is generally believed that the above named breeds will fully meet the requirements of the Virginia farmers and stockmen and that the present policy of the company, as herewith outlined, will be sufficient to accomplish the purpose of its inaugurators and be of untold benefit to the breeders of the entire country, and those of Virginia In particular, should stand ready and willing to aid and support this organization in any mainer they can, that the new year may be a successful and happy one for the stockmen of the Old Dominion.

THE MARRIAGE QUESTION. ALICE WINSTON. Of all the questions that perplex the public to-day there Is none of such vital importance as that of marriage. There is a desire In all for happiness and a belief that in marriage we may expect it. In that state we look for a devotion which never changes, a trust which never fails and the satisfying companionship of kindred souls. "O human love, thou spirit given On earth of all we hope in Heaven." Yet the newspapers ring with tirades from married people to the effect that marriage is a failure, and with replies from old maids that it is a success. As it is an institution which cannot be abolished—for it Is ordained of God—it would be well to see where the fault lies, if It be not with the people who enter Into it rashly or from wrong motives rather than with the state itself. The deep interest taken in the question calls for a health commission to find out the causes of the evil. As there is no poison without its antidote, we may hope a remedy will be found before the subject is shelved. That it fails to give changeless and unalloyed happiness even to those who have a solid foundation of pure and" unselfish love and thorough esteem cannot be denied. The monopoly of bliss will be broken by little jars and disappointments which do not materially cloud the sunshine of a true marriage. But it must be something more than little jars and disappointments which cause so many people to declare marriage is a failure. Let us see who constitutes the majority of the unhappy ones and why they say it is a failure. There are the mercenary marriages. "All for money" is their motto. If they get It they have what they wanted and ought to be silent. Love, honor, good temper and Intelligence were not mentioned in the bond. Their case can be dismissed without further hearing. There is the romantic marriage. "All for love and the world well lost" when the solemn vows are not taken "soberly and advisedly" but with as little thought as if it were an engagement to dance the german. A man meets a pretty, smiling girl at a summer resort. He has a nice moustache and a good figure and makes love charmingly. They become engaged and marry, each thinking the other perfection. Alas! the belief in perfection only exists in the unmarried. They are Ignorant of each other's tastes, habits and dispositions.. When the disillusion and rebound comes it is apt to shipwreck their lives, unless there is great good sense on one side or the other and great forbearance. Five cases out of ten the man finds he has for a life companion an 111- TJSEFTJX ANB BEAUTIFTTIi. No other firm can afford this bnt as.
