Isn’t it fortunate that Moses didn’t

digging in bis garden.
Magnus Johusou says a third
party can elect a President this
year if they select the right candi¬
date. Only his inherent modesty

Mr. Daugherty’s retort seems to
indicate that he thinks the state¬
ments of Mr. Pepper should be
takeu with a grain of salt.

RESOLUTIONS
Who it that said, “ I con
was
sider beyond all wealth, honor, t r
even health, is the attachment due
to noble souls; because to become
one with the good, the generous,
and the Hue, is to be, in a manner,
good, generous, and true yourself. ”
A good man is the best frieud, aud
therefore soonest to be chosen, Ion
gest to be retained, and iudeed
never to be parted with, unless he
cease to be that for which he was
chosen. Character is so largely
affected by associations that we
cannot afford to be iudifferemt as
to who and what our friends are
They write their names in our al
bums, but they Jo more, they help
make us what we are. The friend
ship of high and sanctified, conse
crated spirits, is a cadence of di¬
vine melody melting through the
heart. When asked the secret of
his marvelous success and the
reason for his cheerful, joyous
spirit, a great mau replyed:“ I had
a friend”. Thank God for hearts
that love me; for friendships tried
and true!
No pastor ever had a better
frieud; no church ever had a better
deacon and member; no B. Y. P. U
ever had a better leader and worker
than our retiring deacou, leader
aud member, Brother I). C. Alii,
good, who this day severs his con
nection with this churh to go to
his uew place of business and
church of love aud labor, at Mari¬
anna, Florida. A citizen four
square to every ill wind that blows;
loyal and true to everything pure
and good and noble; a champion
of right, and enemy of wroug—
happy Marianna, Florida! fortun
ate city and church, to have this
high sbuled!, clean lived, conscien¬
tious, consecrated Christian gentle
mau to cast his lot withiu your
borders!
The FirsQRaptist church can ill
aTToVlff^^
worth and influence, yet we rejoice
that he goes to make the same or
even greater contribution to the
cause of the Master in the church
of his new home, than he made
while among us here. His mem
bership of this church reaches
back through seme seven or eigh
years, but more especially do we
think of the great and good work
he has done during the past two
years as officer, worker aud leader
among the young people of this
noble church and the Tucker Bap
tist association. His work in this
field ofservice will abide through
the passing years. The youug
people of this church and the
entire association loses iu him a
man who burned his very life into
their own. Truly he came to the
Kiugdom for a day like this, and
God used him in & marvelously
glorious way. We cau never think
of the BYPU success iu Tucker
association apart from the pioneer
work among the churches of this
man of God, who this day goes
from us. We grieve with the Lutb
er Rice Intermediate Union of this
church in their great loss, but we
gather up his mantle aud go on in
Christ’s holy Name. After Jack
son had received his mortal wound
at the battle of Chaticellorsville,
Longstreet the next morning led
Jackson’s men to the fight with
battle cry: “Remember Jackson”.
With a deep sense of our own iu
sufficiency and limitations, we
lead these noble boys and girls to
the holy conflict with the battle cry:
“Remember Alligood”.
As a Deacon he met the New
Testament qualification. It may
supremely be said of him, that he
is full of the Holy Ghost aud
Faith. He regarded this high of¬
fice as a sacred trust from his
church, aud always he stood for
these measures that promote the
nterest of the Master’s kingdom
in the world. Loyal to his pastor,
he was a comrade, and ever gave
him that unswerving support that
every true God-called pastor
should have. A better Deacon no
pastor ever bad. Oh, bow we
shall miss his support iu this ca¬
pacity! Speaking of Christian
Stewardship that gracious doctrine
1S personified ■c a- in him. AUigooa A llicrnnd is is
an IDEAL STEWARD. The
Stewardshin btewarasmp of oi Life w is a sacred
thing to him. God give us more
men like Dave Alligood!
In every capacity ot cau.v
vice, and especially in the Bible
’
class, , of t which u he rrac was a a rhaiter chatter
member and first president, he will
he be sadlv sacuy^ missed. misseu. We bid' him
God speed as he g
We*shall ever pray for his success
materially and spiritually in his
new home view'
In of the foregoing pre
mises we gladly i subsc
following statement oi sentiments:
1. It is with profound sorrow
that we part with Bro. Alligood.
o We gladly commend him to
'
, his . friends f . , an j „„ _
uew
of which might .
citizen any City
well be proud to claim, and a
kiugdom laborer of rare and large
accomplishments.
3 _ We shall , ,, pray alw , y , ’
that God may continue him in the
field of usefulness, only in a larger
degree.
4. We have found him to be a
man of r courageous, . t

questions.
5. We have found him true to
the Faith, sound and well ground
ed i„ the teachings of the Bible.
6. We have found that b.s coil
duct, both iu precept and example
rneets the requirements of God’s
Word
7. We have found him to be a
man of tireless industry, one
works with speed aud energy.
8. We have found him to be
a kind, considerate, companion¬
able loving friend aud companion
9 Aud lastly, we know him to
be an IDEAL STEWARD of the
manifold grace of God, deeply
conscious of his life-trust from
God, and ever ready to make that
life count for God’s glory and
human good.

Production of cotton under boll wee

cation of thfl weevllS( scientists de
c j are and everything possible should
he done to aid the cotton plants in
one tlie f j rst E * 0 p S j n furnishing
this aid is through preparation of the
soil, ; A good seed bed is necessary *
to btain the best results and
should be prepared early so as to have
a firm, smooth and well settled bed
at p ; a nting. Experts say that the
importance of a well prepared seed
bed can bardly be overestimated,
Also, unfavorable weather conditions
shortly before planting often prevents
plowing at that time and early prep
aration does away with this risk,
planting should be delayed until ail
danger 0 f frost is past and the earth
i S warm enough to cause quick
sprouting and a good stand. Early
Planting is recommended but it should
be borne in mind that it is possible
to plant too early so that the plants
become stunted during the early days
0 f their growth,
Plant if possible only selected seed
of “ early maturing variety, and of
a staple not less than 7/8 inch. In
formation as to a suitable variety for
y 0ur particular locality can be ob
tained from the county agent or the
state college of agriculture. It is
definitely proven that increased yields
worth from $10 to $40 an acre may
be obtained by planting selected seed,
Q ne bushel or more should be plant
ed to the acre.
Cotton rows should be from three
to four feet apart, according to the
"fi C, **5g? g
twelve inches with from one to three
stalks to the hill. Tests under va
rious conditions have proved that
thick spaced cotton matures earlier

The intelligent use of commercial
fertilizers is an important step in the
profitable production of cotton. Prop¬
erly used it will both hasten maturity
and materially increase the yield.
Contents and their percentages de¬
pend on local conditions. The county
agent or the agricultural college can
supply information on this point. Only
the well drained, fertile lands, and
when available, early soils snould be
used. It will pay to produce cotton
only on land that will produce, under
average conditions, at least one third
of a bale to the acre.
