Judging from the extensive prepara
tions being made by our farmers, the
prospects are that Coweta will raise
more wheat in 1915 than in any year
since the Civil War. Nearly everybody
is plunning to sow wheat, and a larger
acreage than usual will be devoted to
oats also. To supply the extraordinary
demand, our leading merchants have
bought many hundreds of bushels of
select seed wheat and outs, and are ex
erting themselves in other ways to in
terest the farmers in these useful crops.

Day of the. Reformation at the Pres

Presbyterian church, through its high
est court, the General Assembly, ap
points annually a day known .as "The
Day of the Reformation,” to be ob
served in the various churches. The
purpose of the day is twofold. To
keep alive in the hearts of our people
the principles of the reformation, and
to lift up a barrier of inteligence
against the oncoming tide of Homan
Catholicism, which threatens our
liberties in America. Next Sunday
(Oct. 25) this day will be observed in
our local church. The subject will be
"The Struggle in the Netherlands.”
Both services, 11 a. m. and 7 p. rri., will
be devoted to this subject. The public
is cordially invited to noth services.
