Mary was an earnest, faithful
Christian and for many years hail!
been a consistent memoer of hie!

i arced to Pennville and interred
there beside her sisters. Tile inner:
al services were conducted by her
pastor. There were gathered at
the funeral many of nor old friends
id' that place as well as a large j
number who came from Dry Val
ley and oilier places, attesting tin*
high esteem in which she was held.
How comforting it must have been
to her loved ones, especially to
father and mother to hear the
sweet words of testimony from
the lips of her pastor as to tier no
ble Christian character and how
Idling it was that this tribute
should lie given to such a noble
bfe. How sad death is to us in
any form. How empty and lone
ly when loved ones are taken from
us. How our hearts are torn aim
iTusned with sorrow, and were it

i power of our Lord and our fait-n

Mary leaves to mourn her loss a

How we thank God for her sweet

' biding faith in Him who doeth all
things well. May we with other
i loved ones cling closer and closer
Ito His side who has promised to
jgive grace sufficient for every trial
and with humble submissive hearts
say Thy will be done.

In Loving Memory
I Susie Lively was born October 27,;
1894, God, in His all wise prov
[ idence saw fit to remove her from !
[this world on the evening of No
| vember 26, 1912. She, being only
[ 18 years and one month old at the
time of her death, just in the bud
of lovely womanhood.
Susie had been sick for quite a
while, but was never known to
murmur or complain, but bore her
afflictions with gentle patience.
All that loving hearts and willing
hands could do was done for her,
| but God needed some bright spot
I m heaven filled and called her to
I come up higher.
To know Susie was to love her.
i She never had very much to say,
! yet was always cheerful and met
i her friends with a loving smile.
It has been my privilege to
know Susie from early childhood,
having lived near each other ami
being close friends until the time
of her death. It seems strange
that her life should end so soon,
but God's thoughts are not our
thoughts, nor are His ways our
! ways, and we realize that it was
all for the best for God doeth all
things well. While she lay on her
[ bed waiting for the angel of death
!to carry her away, she said that
j she was willing and ready to go,
[it being the Lord’s will. What
i comforting thoughts to know that
* she was prepared to meet God in
peace.
She leaves to mourn her going
away, two brothers, and a host, of
relatives and friends.
The furneral services were con
ducted by Rev. G. L. Ledford and
she was tenderly laid to rest in
the Bryant cemetery, where a
number of sorrowing friends had
gathered to pay her their last sad
triimte of respect.
My dearest friend, ah, is it true,
That we shall see thy face no more
j Her life was like the morning dew
Tis gone, our hearts are bleeding
sore.
Her loving friend, Teiime.

anthracnose
1 By President Andrew M. Soule.
The Georgia State College of Agri-1
culture has succeeded in developing
through selection, a strain of cotton I
; which is practically resistant to anth- [
racnose, a fungus disease now esti
mated to be damaging Georgia cotton i
to the exent of about $10,000,000 a [
year.
As fast as the growth of this su-!
perior strain of cotton can be pushed, i
the seed will be distributed through
out the state for the advantage of the [
farmers.
At present only a limited amount ot
seed can be sent out and then only by [
agreement to grow it under the terms [
laid down by the college, the purpose
being to hasten the widespread ad
vantage of growing this cotton.
TEST YOUR SEED CORN.
Jno. R. Fain, Professor of Agronomy.
Inquiry—When and how would you
test seed corn?
Since this is the season of the year
when farmers can find more time
than others, it is good time to carry
on germination tests. Prepare boxes
or hot bed, use sand preferably as a
seed bed, plant from 6 to 10 grains of
corn from each ear to be tested, tak
ing the grains from various points on
the ear; keep temperature, if possi
ble, above 60 degrees. Before plant
; ing be sure to properly mark the ears
[ and the rows planted with grains
therefrom, a good way to mark the
i ears is to take a small nail and fasten
a piece of cardboard to each ear by
driving nail in the butt of the ear.
On this board place a number corres
ponding to a number placed at the
head of the row.
Let the germinated corn grow long
enough to develop a root system.
Discard all ears showing less than 80
per cent, germination. Examine the
remainder to see which show the best
root development, dicarding those
showing the poorest. The corn plants
should have not only a primary root
but at least three secondary roots.
It is better to select an ear that
shows 80 per cent, germination and
I 80 per cent, root development than to
I select an ear with 100 per cent, ger
[ mination and 60 per cent root devel
opment.
Do not plant a single ear which you
have not thus tested. It will take on-
I ly a short time. From 10 to 14 ears
of corn will plant an acre and, of
course, it will take no great time nor

| A Song ot Christmas |
* *
* By JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY *
**************** * * *•**»*
CHANT me a rime of Christmas.
Sing me a jovial song.
And. though It Is filled with
laughter,
Let It be pure and strong.
Sing ot the hearts brimmed over
With the story of the day.
Os the echo of childish voices
That will not die away.
Os the blare of the tasseled bugle
And the timeless clatter and beat
Os the drum that throbs to muster
Squadrons of scampering feet.
But, oh. let your voice fall fainter
Till, blent with a minor tene.
You temper your song with the beauty
Os the pity Christ hath shown.
Asd sing one verse tor the voiceless
And yet. ere the song be done.
A verse for the ears that hear not
And a verse for the sightless one.
For, though It be time for singing
A merry Christmas glee,
Let a low, sweet voice of pathos
Run through the melody.

[ from various parts of Georgia show a |

trouble to make thorough tests. The
results will vastly more than justify
the time and trouble.
In selecting types, confine yourself
to that variety of corn most success
fully grown in your neighborhood or
under similar conditions to yours.
You may make a serious mistake by
sending off for corn that is suited
more to other conditions than yours.
CHOLERA NOT A RESPECTER OF
HOGS.
Dr. H. M. Burson, Professor of
Veterinary Science.
Question —Are razor back or ordi
nary range hogs less subject to hog
cholera than pure bred hogs?
All breeds are susceptible to chole
ra. Some hogs of all breeds are nat
urally immune. Perhaps the crowd
ed, unsanitary quarters in which
many pure bred hogs are kept and
the spoiled food they receive, may
account for apparent susceptibility in
some cases, of the pure bred.
Tuberculosis in Hogs.
Question —How can a fanner deter
mine the presence of tuberculosis in
hogs?
The only reliable method is the tu
berculosis test which should be ap
plied only by a qualified veterinarian.
To give an idea of the standing of
the Georgia State College of Agricul
ture before the world, the chief ex
pert in the cotton industry of Russia
came all the way to the college to
study varieties, cotton grading and
methods of handling and marketing
as taught by the college. He was
much pleased with what he learned.
