BUCKwHEAT-This makes a splen-
did soil-improving crop, and does
not cost SO much to SOW as the COW
peas, and can be sown later. 1t is
also sown largely for grain for grind
ing into flour and for feeding poultry
and stock. The flowers are very de-
sirable for bees Sow any time be
fore the end of August, atfrom three
quarters to one bushel per acre.
GERMAN MlLLET-This is one of the
most valuable summer crops Makes
a large yield of hay of splendid
nutritive qualities, and is not ex-
haustive TO the soil if cut when in
bloom Should he sown thickly at
the rate OF one bHshel to the acre.
BLACK COW PEAs-The old standard
sort. Makt.s oI,e of the most valua-
BILE green iertiiizing crops grown.
Also makes an excellent hay or
forage crop. Sow at the rate of one
to one and half bushels per acre.
WHITE NAVY BEANs-W When proper
ly grown, these usually prove very
profitable Plant in rows three feet
apart. drop two or three beans to
gether, foot apart in the rows
Should not be planted before June.

of maintaining the unity of the
Spirit.
Every great church has it's deposit
of truth to contribute to the church
af the future. The Presbyterian fam
lily will contribute a doctrine that
gives glory to God, and polity that
gives liberty to the people.
At the close of the sermon the Rev.
G. w. Robinson prOpOunded the con-
stitutional questions to pastor and
people which united them in the sa-
cred bonds OF new relation, and in
voked the divine blessing upon the

in 1st Timothy, 4:16. Take heed
unto thyself and unto the doctrine"
and enjoined the cultivation of per-
sOnal piety and the preaching of right
doctrine.
The charge to the people was deliv-
cred by the Rev. j. Horace Lacy, of

possibility of the individual members
of the congregation, and emphasized
the duties of the people to the pastor,
charging them first to exercise for

self. The weapon was discharged, the
ball entering the right side of his face
between the jaws and penetrating the
brain, killing him instantly. 1t is
