Keepers THEATER FGRUIDCEN Presbyterians Must Abstain From These Amusements.* MISSIONARIES ARE HEARD Picas Are Made For Assistance to Push tin* W ork—Report ol' Committee on Home Missions—Progress of Sunday- school Work. Atlanta, May 23.—The Presbyterian general assembly by its vote urges mem bers of this church to abstain altogether from dancing, theater-going and card playing. The report of the committee on a pas t ml letter was adopted this morning. The letter is in part as follows: For the promotion of the spiritual well-being of the church, the general as- ts'milly feel constrained to address all our people a few words of instruction and advice on the importance of ab staining from such ^nusements as are destructive or unfavorable to the re ligious life of the Christian. Under the term worldly amusements may be included the dance, theater and the card table. There is dancing which is innocent in itself. There are plays that are highly moral, and card playing without gambling cannot be called a sin. There are also dances, stage plays, and games of cards that are in them- sehv- harmful and contrary to the law of God; and such being evil and only evil are condemned and forbidden by the church. On these matters the church, through its constitution, the deliver ances of its courts and from its pulpit* has spoken in the strongest terms. ^ The question then arises: May not Christians freely indulge in such forms of worldly amusements as are not sinful in themselves? In reply the general as sembly urges our people to abstain alto gether from the amusements referred to, as a matter of Christian prudence, ex ample and out of regard for the honor of Christ. The reasons are assigned— 1. These things are worldly and char acteristic of a worldly as distinguished from a spiritual life. -• Experience shows that persons en gaging in worldly amusements are easily led inti - such indulgences as are wrong in themselves. 3. Worldly amusements are not favor- aide to a growth in grace. Ehe report of the committee on home mU-ii ins showed two new presbyteries and 15 new churches. For local home miss;, ms $115,000 had been raised during the year. 'Alien the recommendations came up for consideration Rev. J. “P.

HAIRY VETCH. DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve Cures Piles. Scalds. Burns What the Alabama Station Thinks of It For “Winter Pastcrage, Etc. Hairy vetch (Yicia villosa), sown in September or October, alone or with oats, affords nutritious pasturage dur ing the following February, March. April and May. If not grazed too late, it affords a cutting of hay from April 20 to May 10. Hairy vetch is disposed of as pasturage, liay or green manure in time for quick growing summer crops, such as cowpeas, sorghum, late •corn, etc. It grows only from seed, but can be so managed as to reseed the ground continuously. At the station hairy vetch was cut for hay at four different stages. The yield of liay increased up to the time of full bloom, wheu the maximum yield of 5,789 pounds of hay per acre was obtained. Chemical analysis showed that, at whatever stage this plant was cut, the hay was nutritious. Consider ing both quality and quantity of hay it was concluded that the best time to cut vetch, growing alone, was three or four days before the period of full bloom. Hairy vetch rapidly enriches the soil in nitrogen if the plant is plowed in for green manure. It is able to draw this nitrogen from the air and add it to tlie soil only when the roots of the vetch plant are supplied with enlargements of definite character, known as root nodules or tubercles. When sown in the usual way on most poor soils in Alabama, the vetch plant does not have these “bumps” or no dules on the roots. If devoid of tuber cles, hairy vetch does not enrich the soil and fails completely if the land is poor. Such soils can be made to produce vetch plants containing tubercles by sowing, along with the vetch seed, some of the earth from a place where the English pea or the wild vetch has been grown for several years. The process, of employing suitable soil .or other material containing defi nite kinds of tubercle producing germs is called inoculation. In order to have available for use in future years a sufficient supply of valuable inoculation material, it is im portant that prospective vetch grow ers should sow at least a small area of vetch this fall. Tlie soil from this plot may be used for inoculating lar ger areas in subsequent years. Hairy vetch can be advantageously introduced as a “catch crop” into the ordinary rotation of the cotton farm without reducing the area of cotton, corn or small grain. Wheat In tlie South. That wheat can and should be grown by every farmer in the south, especial ly enough to furnish flour for his own family, is nothing but simply going back to conditions that existed before the war between the states. At that time almost every family had wheat of its own raising. Conditions that ex isted after the war, when cotton was selling at a good price, have changed, and now the time has come when farmers must raise their own supplies again and not depend on cotton to buy everything that is consumed on the farm. The time to sow in Georgia, in my opinion and from my experience with other grains, is from the 15th of Octo ber to the 1st or not later than the 10th of November. Owing to our spring aiid summer droughts we must grow more of the winter crops if we expect our farms to become self sustaining and to become a prosperous country, says a writer in Home and Farm. Onions In Lonisiana. In south Louisiana onion seed Is sown in September and October, trans planted to rows 12 to 18 inches apart and well cultivated. The onions are ready for the market in April. In north Louisiana the seed may be sown in January or February in drills, thin ned to a stand and cultivated. By the end of spring or early in summer the crop may be gathered, stored or sold. EDUCATION A FEATURE It "Will Be Given Prominence at the Inter-State Fair. Look in Your Mirror Do you see sparkling eyes, a healthy, tinted skin, a sweet expression aijd a grace ful form? These attractions are the result of good health. If they are-absent, there is nearly always some disorder of the dis tinctly feminine organs present. Healthy- menstrual organs mean health and beauty everywhere. MeELRETS Wine of Cartiui makes women beautiful and healthy. It strikes at the root of all their trouble. There is no menstrual dis order, ache or pain which it will not cure. It is for the budding girl, the busy wife and the matron approaching the change of life. x\t every trying crisis in a woman’s life it brings health, strength and happiness. It costs $J.oo of hiedicine dealers. For advice in cases requiring special directions, address, giving symptoms, “ The Ladies’ Advisory Department/’ The Chattanooga Medicine Co., Chat tanooga, Tenn. MRS. ROZENA LEWIS, of Oenaville, Texas, says:—“I was troubled at monthly intervals with terrible pains in my head and back, but have been entirely relieved by Wine of Cardui.” AN INTERESTING EXHIBIT Arrangements Have Been Perfected For Contests In Oratory and Com position Between Boys and Girls. Prizes Offered by the Educational Department. The Educational Department of the Southern Inter-State Fair, to be held at Atlanta this fall, will he one of the most interesting features of the fair. It has always been difficult to arrange a basis of competition for school exhibits that would be practicable, and at the same time prove interesting to visitors and the public at large. But this diffi culty was happily adjusted by the ar rangement-under which the Educational Department was operated at the State Fail- held in Atlanta last year. This plan, with a few modifications suggested by experience, will be adopted by the Fair Management this year, and it goes without saying that the success of last year will cause a doubled interest in the work now under way for the fair this fall. Under the plan adopted colleges, schools and school systems, both county and city, may make practical and inter esting exhibits and compete on an. equit able basis. The plan ia an interest in* Miss Florence Newman, who has been a great sufferer from muscular rheumatism, says Cbaimberlain’s Pain Balm. Is the only remedy that affords her relief. Miss New man is a much respected resident of the village of Gray, N. Y., and makes this statement for the/ bene fit of other simiiary affected. This liniment is for sale by H. B. McMas ter. one ana scnooi commissioners, superin tendents and teachers should apply im mediately to the secretary of the fair for a copy of the rules and regulations in order that they may be carefully studied before the present school term expires. It is not saying too much to state that the educational department of last year’s fair was one of the most, if not the most, interesting department of the fair. Possibly the most interesting features of the plan presented for the coming fair are the premiums offered for decla mation and composition, the former to be contested for by the boys and the lat ter by girls. Under the arrangement students are placed on an equal footing. That is, boys studying in the grammar grades of a county system compete against boys studying in the same grades. Boys studying in the higher branches of either county or city sys tems must compete with students of like character. The same rale applies to the girls who compete for the compo sition; all will compete on a fair and equitable basis. But to thorongly un derstand the conditions governing the various contests the published rales should be carefully read, and interested parties should apply at once to Secretary T. H. Martin, 218 'Prudential Building, Atlanta, for a copy of the official pre mium list. Here are some of the prizes offered for oratorical and composition contests: Best declamation by boy, studying only in grammar grades, from any county school system, $25.00; best declamation by boy, studying higher branches, city or county, $25.00; best declamation by boy, from any city or local system, open to grammar grades only, $25.00. Best composition by girl studying only in grammar grades, from any county school system, papers limited to 200 words and written within one hour’s time, $25.00; best composition by girl, studying higher branches, papers lim ited to 300 words and written within one hour’s time, open to city and county, $25.00; best composition by girl, from any local or city school system, papers limited to 300 words and written within one hour’s time, $25.00. To the boys who have a mechanical turn the fair management offers some especially handsome premiums as fol lows: Best exhibit of woodwork, made by boy between the ages of 16 and 20 years, $50.00; best exhibit of forged work, made by boy between the ages of 16 and 20 years, $50.00. These premiums and the character of the contest should interest every boy and girl in the state, and judging by the success of the plan last year, it is safe to say that there will he a number of spirited contests at the fair this fall.
