Hollingsworth, who leased an acre and a half of onion land of Alf Donnelly and put it out in onion sets, will have from 600 to 800 bushels of sets. These sell from 31 to $4 per bushel, depending on crop conditions. Alf, the “onion king,” has out two acres which will not yield half as much as the one and a half acres of the Hollingsworth boy and he stands a good chance of losing the title of “onion king” to some of the younger onion growers who have sprung up in the last two or three years. An informal meeting of the hospital board was held last evening. The matter of a site was discussed and all those so far suggested were considered, but no action was taken on a site, nor will tfipre be at this time.

It has been suggested since the meeting that Milroy Park would >be an excellent site for the hospital, and as this is owned by the city of. Rensselaer it could probably be deeded to the county for the purpose of a hospital. Drs. Besser and Rainier, of Remington, were present at the meeting. nis Aim The cannon ball express was crawling up the Blue Ridge not far above Warrenton when a. small yellow dog dashed «narHng out of a house near the track and ran after the train, barking at a furious rate. “Well, sir,” exclaimed the conductor, proudly, to a passenger from the north who stood beside him on the rear platform, “that’s a most amazing dog. He tears out of that house every day and chases after this train for miles. He’s—” “Pardon me, captain," Interrupted a Inng. solemn Virginia farmer, the only other occupant of the platform, “but what do you s’pose he’s aimin’ to do with the train if he does catch ttr Argument Closed Jackson and Johnson are not now on speaking terms.
