A MEMORIAL SERVICE.
Congregation Does. Honor to the Memory
of Deceased Pastor.

A large congregation was pres
ent Sunday afternoon at the First
Presbyterian church, to witness
the ceremonies incident to the un-
yelling and presentation of the
tablet IN memory of the late Rev.
J. Rumple. The tablet, which is
the gift of the ladies of the con-
gregation, is made of bronze and
bears this inscription:
"This tablet placed by the la.
dies of the congregation in loving
remembrance of Rev. Jethro Rum
ple,-D. D born M..rch 10, 1927,
Installed pastor of this church
November "a, 1850, after a faith
full service of over forty-five years,
died January 20, 1905.
Servant Of God, we'll done!
Rest from thy loved employ,
The battle fought, the victory won,
Enter thy Masters joy"
The tablet was unveiled by
Miss jamie Dickson Vardell, a
granddaughter of DR.. Rumple,
after which Rev. J, M. Wharey
made an address, presenting the
tablet on behalf of the ladies of
the congregation. He referred
10 a touching manner to the life
work of Dr.. Rumple, his influence
upon his people and The commu-
nifty at large, and exhorted his
hearers to keep fresh in their
minds his teaching and the exam
pie of his holy, consecrated life.
Hon. Theo. F. Kluttz accepted
the tablet for the church. He
made a brief address in euiogy of
the deceased pastor, III whose hon

saying: "May it be the prayer

righteous, and my last end be like

Another Store Hobbery.

The store of the Belk. Harry
Company was entered by a theft
or thieves on Wednesday night of
last week. A couple of dollars in
change was taken from the cash
drawer, but nothing else was taken
so far as known. It is believed
the thief concealed himself IN the
store before it was closed for the
night, as he went out by the rear
door when ready to leave. This
is the second time within the past
few weeks that the store has been
entered.

APPLYING FERTILIZER WHEN
PLANTING.
While 1t Is certainly true. in our ex-
perlence, that the greater part of the fer
tilizer should be applied about two weeks
before the crop is to be planted, wei
m,1ed IN the soil Of the bedding furrow
tnat would justify a farmer in making
one or more intercultural applications
including one at the actual date of plant
ing. Inc Following are such circumstan-
ceS:
% When a farmer has not been able
to secure the whole amount of his fer
t1l1Zers before planting time.
: " When he concludes, after his croo
has been planted and is growing. that
ne did not buy n apply as much as he
should have done before planting.
90 When the yellowish green color and
want of vigor in the appearance Of the
plants indicate that more nitrogen "a
needed by the crop.
we believe it may be safely accepted
as a general rule that a small portion
or Virginia Carolina Fertilizer should be
applied with, or near the seed, at the
time of planting. The effect of this small
application is to supply the young plants
with available food during the first stage
OF their growth, inducing prompt and
vigorous development. For this purpose
~ TO 81 pounds per acre may be applied
OF the same fertilizer that had been bed
ded on two weeks before planting.
A second application of high-grade fer
t1llzers may be made at the second G..
third blowing of cotton, or at six or eight
inches height Of the plants up to 10 inch
es, or the middle to last of May, and the
middle to last of Tune.
