SMUT IN CORN. “My coin is attacked by smut balls on the stalks and ears too, and such stalks make no corn. How can I get rid of it? - ’ Smut is carried to corn by the manure and soil and not by the seed. Cattle will eat the smutty fodder and the pores will be carried in the manure and spread on the land. Keep flu- smutty fodder away from >th e feed lot and you will have less of it. Then farm in a good rotation and do not grow corn year after year on the same jpnd. —The Progressive Farm- Our mercantile business, con sisting of a stock of shoes and menu's furnisKings j ,is for (sale.

Pope well said — 'Tis education forms tin* com mon mind, .lust as the twig is bent the tree’s inclined.’’ What sort of bending is your school district? It is a glorious occurrence that occasionally some giant soul, indomnitble and un quenchable, despite circum stances and lack of training, climbs to the highest table lands of success. The man who would have nothing German used in Amer ica, is like a man who would re fuse to eat a juicy piece of coun try haute because it was fried in a skillet. Accordion music sometimes reminds one of a jack’s braying while svrup caiulv is being pull ed. Had you noticed that sub scribers who take and rod the Delineator are always pretty well dressed? This shows that it is good to read the right kind of magazines. Some Christians even in Win der, were willing to pay liberally to the Y. M. C. A. who refused to give a penny to the hospital, the orphans’ home, the objects fostered by their de nominations for years . It is had to turn down the cry of orphans. It will soon be time to pur chase $3.00 worth of garden seeds, $5.00 worth of fertiliz er, do $25.00 wort h of work, and get therefor SIO.OO worth of vegetables. A fool ran take a sledge ham mer and knock down a house, itnt it takes a man of wisdom to take a tack hammer and build a chicken coop. If tilt* courts of the county would fine liquor sellers to tin* limit each time convicted, it would stop blind tigering in < Jeorgia. Should some boys and girls inherit the evil tendencies of their mothers and fathers they will go through life greatly handicapped. When a preacher gets a repu tation of being a great visitor among his parislmners, it is practically certain that he is neglecting his study, and the Bible teaches that a man is called to preach the Word ml not to ring door bells and make pop calls. Plenty of young men will spend five dollars one (‘veiling on tin* child of two living pa rents, who refuse to give a dime to the orphan child of two dead ones. Those* who practice* the* Gold en Rule* when they get into ete*r nity ought to get the best the devil has to give them. They gave* him their best while* here. Eve*rv parent who denies his children the privilege of reading a gooel daily paper is robbing them of something of almost in caleulabl value so far as the* fu ture is coneerneel. When a girl begins to make* a paint shop of her face, a e lotle s dummy of her body, and a walk ing add of silk hose, it is about time her ma should give* her a (•u tain lecture. Jf it is right for the govern ment to help out the westei wheat farmr on his high pric wheat, why is it not right for the same government to help out the semtherji cotton farmer 7 What causes one man to run his shoe heels down on the out- side, and another to run his down on the inside? Takes sense to answer it. As long as all men put on their left shoes last upon rising mornings, it will be useless to prophesy no more wars. The democratic senators went and did it when last Monday they killed suffrage in the sen ate. But democratic mossback senators are still numerous enough to cause that party to play tlu* fool at the opportune* time. WINTER PLOWING TO DE STROY GET WORMS. One of the troublesome pests of every truck grower is the cut worm. The winter stage of this pest is passed in the ground in the form of a half grown worm. By plowing the land in late fall and exposing these worms to the cold, a large* percentage of them can be destroyed. There fore*, every truck farmer should turn during late fall or early winter all ground that is not growing some winter crop. This fall or winter plowing will not lolly destroy cut worms, but many other harmful winter in sects, among them being white grubs. Plowing should be good and deep, however, in order to get at this white grub, because of the fact that it goes quite deep into the ground. Too much stress cannot be placed upon the value* of fall and win ter plowing to destroy the pests mentioned and many others. — The Progressive Farmer. CHURCH NOTICES FIRST BAPTIST (’llFR('II.
