ANTHOINE, Frop’r., FORT VALLEY, GA As a church we mourn his loss, but we rejoice in the fact that he was ready for the Master’s call. By faith we look beyond the sunset and behold him in the land of eternal day, “waiting and watohing” for those he left behind. While we, his little flock, are overwhelmed with sorrow at the loss of our beloved pastor, Therefore be it resolved, 1st, That in the death of Brother Powell the church at Henderson has suffered an inestimable loss. 2nd, That though sorrowing much, we would bow in humble submission to the will of our Heav- enly Father, knowing that he doeth all things well. 3rd, That Brother Powell, during the time he was our pastor, had greatly endeared himself to the church, and to Henderson and the surrounding community, and was, we trust, the means of doing muoh good while in our midst. For this we humbly thank the Divine Giver of all good, Who sent him to us. 4 th, That we tender to his wife and dear little boy our deepest sym pathy in their sore affliction, and assure them of our sincere love and earnest prayers for their future wel fare. 6th, That we request the Home Journal to publish these resolu tions, that a oopy be sent to the wife of the deceased, and a copy be spread on the minutes of the church book.

CHEAP STEEL FENCING. Better and More Economical Than ' r " At Wood Fcjr Large and Small Enclosures. This is the age of cheap steel and good steel. Steel implements have increased the productiveness of the soil and steel fences are now increas ing the profits of farmers and plant ers by protecting crops and holding stock at a minimum co3t. The pros perity of the country is reflected in the enormous demand for and corre sponding output of steel and there was never a better time to improve the farm by putting up steel fences that can now be bought oheaply and which will last a life time. The approved steel fence to-day is made of heavy Bessemer steel, heav ily coated^ with galvanizing. The fence is woven by machinery in the works. Such a fence is the Ameri can Field and Hog Fence which is delivered to the planter in rolls of twenty or forty rods. This has heavy bars of Bessemer steel wire and stays of No. 12 wire placed twelve inches or six inches apart. The larger mesh is suitable for large enclosures, pastures, ranches, &c. The smaller mesh is recommended for hog pens, sheep or cattle yards. The fence can be obtained in heights from 20 inches to 58 inches. By Big Sandy.
