We spite theher.te Miss e, infant Mrs. J. rst prize e recentThe Tazewells M i xed.Al. Jennings, the once noted highwayman and despar ulo, has recently contributed a series of interesting biographical articles for the Saturday Evening Post, in one of which articles he states that he was born m Tazewell county, Virginia. His family were driven out of Tennessee by the invading armies, and he states that bis family stopped for sometime in an old school house in Tazewell county Virginia,at which time he was born.Inquiry among the oldest people around here fails to elicit any verification or recollection of this family and this event. More than fifty years have clasped, it is true, but there are people still living on the borders of this and contiguous counties, who should, traditionally at least, have some information on the subject.We think, as does Capt- Tynea an old soldier, who is familiar with the movements of the armies in Tennessee, that Tazewell Virignia and Tazewell Tennessee have gotten mixed in this narrative. If,-as Jennings implies, if he does not explicitly state that his family was between the armies of Longstreet and Rosecrans Tazewell Virginia could not have been the placeindicated, says Capt Tyncs. for at no time wasRosecrans in Virginia or even near the line. Can any readers of this paper give any light on the subject?—EditorMore Corn and Potatoes ThanLast Year.The crop report of November 10, 1913 just issued by the Bureau of Statistics of the Agricultural Department of the United States, for Virginia, gives this State an average yield per acre of 20 bushels against 24 bushels for 1932, and a total yield of 51,480,IKK) as against 47,520,000 bushels in 1912- This gives an increase in the State of nearly 4 million bushels, and this was not a favorable year for corn either, in this State. Better seed and better culture will greatly increase this vield. This latest bullitin gives to. al yield in United States as nearly 700 million bushels short of 1912, and the yield per acre of 23 bushels against 29 last year.Potatoes, 9,400,000 bushels in the State, against 8,265,000 bushels last year—over a million bushels short.beAiheovancogootlofstlt;Pi’ZGm;recara]apuCUJmlNthoaninjwiwcveWEE\seiMiMlt;LeELFoBaDi1 ,elieTefolBeMibuTeVoLaLoS.FrVsTiThe Southwest Governors.Editor News:—In your last week's number you named three former Governors of Virginia from the Southwest.
