This annual renovation Dot only beautifies the premises but also increases healthfulness of tbe To get the greatest comfort from one's environment not only and sanitation must be looked sf ter, but utility as well. A touch here, a change there, now this im? provement, then that, and the desired end is reached. When these are undertaken by concerted action, wben neighbor is inspired by neighbor to oultivate flowers, or plant otherwise adorn and beautify bis abiding plaoe, thc spirit of improvement grows and other households catch the infec? tion, snd before one reallies it thc whole community takes oa a hand? some dress and more attractive face.

Thus a very valuable anti commendable public as well ai private eervice is performed. THE SAN JOSE SCALE Tho State Entomologist, Prof J. L. Phillips of Blaoksburg, bat submitted a report to Boan of Supervisors of Rockbridge or the inspection work in the for the San Jose scale. He statei that there are very few orcbardi ii Rockbridge that bave not beei treated for this pest.

He report! tbe number of apple trees in Rook bridge as being 140,158 in 1900 nearly double the number ten year previous. Perch trees, plums pears and other fruits have in ceased in like proportion. Rockbridge ranks third or fourtl in number of peach trees in thi State. This tree has been threaten by peach yellows in rome sec lions of tbe State, but tbe dieeas has done very little damag 1 far in Rockbridge. Witl proper preventive measures, Fro feeaor thinks tbe uiseas can be entirely stamped out.

Hi recommend" the prompt destruc tion of all trees so infected.

John Thomas Dunlop had died suddenly at bis country home near Buena Vista, Virginia. Mr. Dunlop wai a ion of Mary? land and there grew to young manhood. When hearing the call to arms on the part of tbe South? land, he responded to that call and amid the shock of battle, the fatigues of tbe march, and ths weaiy waiting of camp life, exhi? bited tbe truest qualities of tbe good solder. In Hardy oounty, West Virginia, while with bil regiment assaulting a blcok-house of tbe enemy, he desperately wcunded, and wore tbe badge of honor with modest pride until he bad "fought bis last fight." To bim was no "lost cause," but when the flags were furled stacked arms with his comrades and entered earnestly upon tbe pursuits of peaceful life.

Selecting farming as bis pro? fession, the noblest known to man, be was soon making "two blades of gran grew where only one grew before," and io became "bene.ao tor" well as farmer. While engaged in unosten? tatious far removed from rush and roar of what ii known ai business life, he nevertheless studied and mastered tba general principles of banking, the most delicate, complicated, and impor? tant of all of human in? dustry, end as president of tbe First National Bank of Lexington, for 16 years, held the helm witb steady and unshaken hand, and guided the venture through all seas and all ohangei to its present iplendid success. Wise in oounsel, thoughtful and resourceful, progressive yet con? was looked up to with perfeot confidence and implicit trust. Bank meeting days always found him at tbe place of duty, and no demand of bank or of its eonfidins. patrom, was ever made upon hi tr, tbat was not responded to prompt I and with fidelity.

And while thus absorbed be stil found time in which to thoughtful attention to affairs a more general and more public nature, and when called upon bj his fellow citizens, to represen them in tbe Legislature of bu adopted met tbe new with Jeffersonian test of states macship, and was "honest anc capable." But after all, there ii to humat life but "one thing needful," abd tbii busy, brave man found timi in which to choose "the bette part," atd was not ashamed ti "confess Christ before men." He was twice eleoted elder ir the Church of his choice and his love, the first time by thi members of Falling Spring Presby terirn church, and was serving a ia the church of Buena Vista when he died. Tbe world waa made richei by the life of suoh a man, and i poorer now that be is dead. His "works, however, do folios him," and there await bim fron Ihe God he served "tbe well done' a "crown of rejoicing."
