Gone but Not Forgotten.

Death again has visited us, and
claimed for its victim Bessie, the
only and beloved little daughter
of DR.. q. 7. and Irene. Wood. She
was sick only 16 days when God
saw fit to take her away, then lit
tie Bessie closed her eyes gently
to open them no more on earth,
bidding farewell to father and
mother. She is now resting round
that beautiful Throne, she has
clasped hands with her little
sweet brother, who she never
knew Oh earth, but OH we shall
know each other there. Now we
would say to her father and
mother, weep not for those little
ones in that sweet forever where
no graves are ever dug, no tears
ever shed aud no farewells are
ever spoken.
We loved her yes we loved heT
But angels loved her more,
And they have sweetly called her,
To yonder's shining shore.
The little cradle Is empty now,
The little clothes laid away
A fathers hopes a uo.her's Joy
In deaths cold arms doth lie.
Go little pilgrim TO thy home
On yonders blissful shore,
We miss thee here but soon shall cone
Where thou has gone before.
| O! what a blessing it is for us
to know we are ready and prepar
ed to go when God in his great
power and wisdom sees proper tC
take us away. We know that
little Bessie is resting round that
beautifulThrOne with Gods angels
And o! how sweet twill be When
we are called away, that we can
clasp hands with our dear ones
where parting is no more. Clos,
ing her little eyes gently little
Bessie has gone to sleep; yes q
sleep in Jesus blessed sleep, fol
which none ever wakes to weep
Farewell little Bessie your loss We
greatly feel, but only a few more
weary years and we will meet tC
part no more. The grief stricken
father.and mother have our sincere
sympathy. May the blessings OF
our good Jesus be with them il
this their lonely hours.

FARM TOPICS.
Great men are not born in
cities.
A prosperous and intelligent
yeomanry'is a country's great
pride.
Greatness may mature in the
metropolis, but it must begin in
the country.
When times are hard with the
farmer the business community is
in distress.
Young men should stick to the
farm-the fountain of all wealth,
the nursery of every virtue.
Country life conduces to the
generous expansion of the mind,
and the healthful development of
body.
Raise the best of everything
you expect to sell. The quality
of your produce fixes the market
price.
The man who lives within his
income is getting rich. The man
who lives beyond it is already
poor.
In China the man owning ten
acres of land is wealthy, while he
who owns but one acre possesses
O competence.
The farm upon which diver
sity of crops is raised is bank that
keeps all of it's capital effectively
employed.
The farmer cannot make his
farm a success without keeping
accounts; he must know what pays
and what does not.
Five.cent cotton is benefit to
the South in one sense-it sends
the planter to his own smokehouse
for his supplies.
The farmer should study how
to improve his condition, and by
so doing learn how to improve his
crops and the prices they bring.
Why sensible people will leave
the farm and huddle together in
overcrowded cities, when country
life is so inviting is difficult to I'M
derstand.
The essences of the advantages
Of crop Investigation is that it
assures the farmers an independ-
ent living from his own acres.
No farmer who gives all his
time and labor to single crop
can utilize to the best advantage
the possibilities of his farm.
The low price of cotton and the
high price of farm supplies is the
strongest argument for a great
diversity of crops.
Plain common sense dictates

side line of all food supplies in adj
diton to his principal crop.
