God in their day and generation, and
are now worshiping him in that tenn
pie not made withhands, eternal IN the
heavens. let us praise and bless God for
His loving kindness and tender mer-
cies, and pray that from generation to
generation He may have here a people
10 love and worship Him, who with US,
may at last join:the ten thousand times
ten thousand, and thousands OF thous-

power, and riches. and wisdom, and
strength, and honor, and glory, and
blessing.
:Oh may we bear some humble part.
In that immortal song.
Wonder and Joy shall tune our heart.
And love command our tongue
The writer could not help but
feel what a grand opportunity
there was on this occasion to
make public acknowledgement
of the character, worth and
achievements Of this sacrificing
CAPTAIN who has led a legion up
the rugged sides Of life: always
directing to the life beyond. Oh!
we say, if some eloquent man,
with the data furnished him
from those men and women who
knew and felt, could have been
given this opportunity to relate
in historical detail the full his
tory of the Manning Presbyter-
ian church, what an address it
would have been, and how it
would have gladdened the hearts
OF many, many: to know that
there is an earthly record Of the
Joys and sorrows. the trials and
trioUlations, the heartaches and
disappointments of this godly
man, who carried his burden,
and the burden of these people,
with his face always to the front
and his finger pointing to the
goal; his voice clear and earnest,
encouraging the onward march.
May God bless him is our prayer.
The address does not give the
church's full and complete his
tory, because there are hundreds
Of actual historical facts con-
nected with the church which
forbids a man Of Mr.. McDowell's
modesty from referring to, be-
cause he could not make any
reference to them without refer
ing to himself, for 1t was his
zeal and love for his church that i
made these facts, and him it's
central historical figure. 1t
would indeed take a large vol
ume to record Mr.. McDowell's
with Presbyterianism
IN Clarendon, and the Manning
Presbyterian church.u

Tribute of Respect.

Whereas, the Almighty, in His wis
dom, has seen fit to remove from our
midst our Brother Sow. Milton &.
Lackey.
BY whose death we deem that our
Order has lost one of its stoutest mem
bers. Sow. Lackey had scarcely at
tained the prime OF life, which makes
his death peculiarly sad.
He was struck down by lightning
stroke almost at his door, in sight OF
family and friends. He was man OF
vigor, yet of kindly disposition, a true
friend, and kind neighbor.
Sow. Lackey was man esteemed IN
his community as was attested by the
concourse at his funeral.
Our Camp extends to his bereaved
ones our sincere sympathy IN this loss
of their loved one.

For Keeping Humus in Soil.

The experiment station lecturers defined
their system of rotation for the keeping OF
the humus supply in the soil as followsi
Corn is grown two years. The third year
the land is thoroughly disked early in the
spring and sown to oats. The oat crop Is
removed from the land and stacked as
soon after harvest as possible. II the
ground is sufficiently wet it is plowed at
once. If very dry or cloddy the land Is
double disked, thrice if necessary, and then
plowed deeply. Disking the land not only
prevents a further loss of the water by
evaporation, but 1t also fines the surface
so that fine earth is turned under at the
bottom of the furrow slice instead of clods
and chunks. The pillow is followed on the
same day with the disk or subsurface
packer in order to thoroughly fill up all
open spaces in the sub-surface. The COM
mon drag harrow follows these tools to
work the surface down into shape After
every rain the land is narrowed, soon
as it is fit to work, in order to break up
any crust that may form and by keeping
a loose surface prevent the loss Of moisture
by evaporation"

TO resist drouth and the more productive it
is. This knowledge then practically solves
the question of soil fertility and soil pro-
ductiveness. The same results may be had
by the liberal use Of barnyard manure, but
the very limited supply to be had on each
farm does not compare favorably with the
requirements thus necessitating the use OF
self-fertilizing crops such as the clover,
alfalfa and other legumes that may be en-
ployed as fertilizers.
In the case of lands rund down and low in
fertility it will Justify the sowing of
fertilizing crop to be plowed under in its
green stage of growth. In the best agri-
cultural districts of the east 1t has been
the custom for the last fifty years or more
to pillow under a crop Of clover occasion
ally in order to secure a high state of fer
tility and obtain large crops of grain for
several years following
This introduces the subject of crop rota-
ton some System Of which must be adopted
on all well managed farms, sooner later
It now remains for the practical farmer to
take hold of this feature of the work and
determine what is best for his particular
needs. II will be found, as a general prop
osition, that for this district OF country
called the Missouri valley. that clover or al
falfa will be the fertilizng crop to use and
that the order best suited to conditions will
be alfalfa sod plowed under for corn after
several years cropping to hay. The plant
ing of corn should not exceed two years,
then to oats one year. then wheat, then
seeded back to alfalfa. The system Of ro-
tation must be governed to suit the de-
mands of the farm operations live stock
kept, amount of land to be farmed etc.
In the course of the lectures the follow
ing example was given of the comparative
values of alfalfa and barnyard manure IN
growing of corn at the Nebraska expert
ment station:
"A piece of land sown to alfalfa in 1895
was plowed up and planted to corn in 1903.
Another piece of land of the same size and
on the same farm that had not been seeded
down, but had been well MANFRED with
barnyard manure and given the best Of
tillage, planted at the same time, with
the same variety of corn. The alfalfa land
gave a yield Of eighty-six bushels Of corn
per acre, the other field gave seventy-fve

grain crops as in years gone by. The

poverishment of soil fertility.

enough, II is believed. TO iast for all time
in the production OF maximum crops. The
addition of commercial fertilizers contain
ing these properties is not necessary, and
possibly never will be. The need is to
supply the humus that is being exhausted.
This is the vegetable mold formed by de-
composition of grasses grass roots, etc,
which has for many years been supplied to
the prairies by natural means of growth
and decay. This accounts for the dark
color of the soil to a depth equal to whore
the washing Of the humus has extended
down into the ground. In the process
of the decomposition Of this vegetable mat
ter organic acids are formed, which at
tack the mineral properties in the soil
and convert them into soluble form to be
taken up aud used by the plants. Plants
must have the mineral matter to produce
growth, and without humus or vegetable
mold they are unable to get it. Humus is
a releaser Of mineral fertility.

Career ns Speaker.

There was little casting about for can
didates when Thomas b. Reed resigned as
speaker of the house Of representatives in
1889. David Bremner Henderson was chosen
with almost singular unanimity TO control
that turbulent body. The gallery loved
dearly TO listen to him in debate. The
phases of his character were many. Dis
tinguished men have laughed inmoder-
ately when Colonel Henderson, divesting
himself Of his coat at the liquor course Of
d dinner struck up his pet song, There's
Hole in the Bottom of the Sea" and re-
quested everyone 10 join in the chorus.
Here was good nature without a dross Of
alloy. Yet the next morning Colonel Hen
derson might fay in debate the diner
with whom he clinked glasses.
He was somewhat proud Of the distinc-
ton Of being the second alien-born TO oc-
cupy the speakers chair The other was
Judge Crisp. who was born in England.
Shortly after the first speakership cleo
ton. the metamorphosis OF Henderson be-
gan. He was still the good fellow TO a few
of his intimates, but 10 the public at large
he became the speaker Of the house Of rep
resentatives in all that the term implies.
Formerly the most approachable Of men
for newspaper purposes, he frOze suddenly
ana became as silent joss. He sat in
solitary state in his room and let people in

great parsonage who had important mat
tiers on hand AT all times and could not be
bothered with little details presented by
little folks. He started in 10 force social
recognition for his place. He developed pc
culisr views as 10 precedent, and his claims
often embarrassed private as well as offi-
cial hosts and hostesses. He had a regular

President Roosevelt felt il unsafe to invite
Henderson and Frye at the same time to
any function where the placing OF the
guests implied seniority or precedent in
rank.

The great and central thought in all this
seed corn proposition is the stimulating
influence towards greater effort to produce
larger crops Of corn on the same acreage
now used for this crop. There are but few
farmers or corn growers who do not know
a good ear OF corn when they see it, and
who have not heard all about the kind
of ear to select, and how to take care of
It when selected, but the careless indiffer-
ence in carrying into effect the knowledge
already possessed is the demand for in
struction and instructors to prompt them
to action. When 1t can be proven that by
the mere selection of a certain type Of
ear for seed, thai possibly may be found
in their own crib, they can increase their
yield of corn 20 to 30 per cent, it seems
business suicide to let this opportunity
pass UNDECIDED Let every farmer who
raises an acre of corn stop and consider
his own pocketbook but for moment
and see IL thirty bushels of corn per acre
is more satisfactory than forty-five? This
advantage has been secured merely by the
selection of the seed ears from the same
field. Like produces like" is principle
in nature that holds good. 1t is by this
principle that improvement has been made
in animal and plant life.
The great wizard in plant creation, Luther
Burbank, is credited as saying that one
grain more added to each ear of corn
now grown in this country would increase
the yield 100000 bushels. II is within
the possibility of the present day corn
selection to increase the entire yield of
corn 20 per cent in actual weight and not
increase the number of ears.
Soil management is becoming the i'm
portant and most interesting feature in
