Mr. George White has jbeen dis one full of hopes and fears, she loved her church and as long as her health permitted was regular in her place She was hoping for the home where we feel sure she now is and she fear ed the Lord as we are taught to fear Him. A kind and loving wife and mother a good neighbor and a ready helper in all good causes. Why God took her, we cannot under stand, but He needed her far more than we in some way. His band of beautiful angles was not complete. Her work here was finished. She leaves a husband and two small sons and one precious boy was waiting in side the pearly gates to welcome her home to heaven. She also leaves several brothers, one sister and host of other relatives and friends to mourn her going away. Resolved 1. That in this sorrow and gloom, we. look to God_ for help. Resolved 2.

Ber muda, orchard grass and clover, well I soded and well qared for, will save many dollars during the year. It will furnish grazing for the hog, cow and horse. You can cultivate the ground this year and sod with Bermuda at same time. Hogs in a pen or dry lot will be expensive. A cow at every home, a couple of hoys, a good garden and potato patch will assist you in reducing your groc ery account. Plant flowers and shrubs and help to beautify the home grounds. Spend money on comforts and con veniences rather than a large house or show. Why not build a fireless cooker for your wife? Waterworks will save many steps for the woman on the farm.

The early fly is the one to swat. Keep the flies from entering the house by a thorough screening of every window and door. The annual picnic at Digby was held last Saturday. The attendance from Brooks was not se large as usual, the farmers being engaged with their crops. W. N. D.

It only takes about one-eighth of an acre. Last year one boy in the state made more than forty bushels. If a boy at your home will not join, we will enroll a girl. Irish potatoes are good every day in the year. See us at once. Remember, peas, velvet beans, and soy beans all add nitrogen to the soil and is need on all our soils. Now is the time to prepare for next year. Now is the time to transplant sweet potatoe plants. They should be on the table ten months in the year. This is possible with a storage house. Cotton seed meal -is difficult to buy now and we are told that all feeds will be scarce next year. Corn ad vanced ten cents per bushel one day this week. Be sure you plant enough to supply your demands and a good hay crop will save you grain. Now is the time to provide both corn and hay for next year. A REAL MAN. It is pretty hard to assert your independence and defy the world when you hav& an empty pocket book and no bank account. The prudent man who has sav ed a little, who has a reserve at the Bank to tide him over a month or more, isn’t so afraid of sickness, or such a coward about being out of a job. A bank account is a stimu lant to real manhood, The larger the account, the firmer the footing. It breeds self-confidence, is a proof of efficiency, and an ever present resource in time of need. It’s not what a man earns in a year that gives him a surplus, it’s what he saves. Don’t make the mistake of wait ing until you are old to start sav ing. Start today. We give care ful attention to all accounts, large or small. BANK OF FAYETTEVILLE. 1 ££ GETUPAND6IT 99 Strange but True.
