The healing waters of the Sand. Lick

attention of many of the people in this

have been placed to its credit. Louis

has been compelled to use crutches,

two or three weeks has enabled him to

were sharp and cutting and there is a
diversity of opinion as to the line of
thoughts advanced. One thing GER

There is competition inIthe stage line
between this place and Campbellsville,
Mr.. Vernon Holt having the mail line
and Mr.. j. B. Barbee is running indie
pendently. Both proprietors have good
hacks and good horses, and seemingly,
they are running without jar. Travel
is light at this season of the year, hence
there is not enough money in the line to
warrant competition. Mr.. Holt is nee
essarially compelled to run, having a
contract with the Government to carry
the mail, and Mr.. Barbee says he will
not Quit the pike. All outsiders can do
is to watch and say, "Lay on McDuff,
etc."

Agricultural Survey.

The object of the agricultural or soil
survey that is now in progress in this
county in cooperation with the state
Geological survey, is to make study
of the soils and agricultural conditions
in general, with a view that the agri-
cultural experiment station may be
able to suggest methods by which
systems of pertinent agricultural may
be introduced and maintained.
Samples of the surface and subsoil
are taken from the various soil areas or
types of the different counties of the
state, and are sent to the agricultural
experiment station at Lexington, where
they are analysed chemically and
physically for the purpose determining
their chemical and physical nature.
A physical analysis is of less impor-
lance than a chemical. 1t tells some
thing of the capacity of a soil to hold
moisture which is in many parts of this
country limiting factor in crop por-
duction.
While a chemical analysis does not
tell the amount of available plant food
present in soil, its Importance lies in
the fact that it tells the total amount,
and also because it reveals the fact
whether or not any of the limiting
elements of plant food are lacking.
After chemical analysis of the soils
have been made and the results tabu-
lated and published. the publication will
be available to any farmer, free OF
charge who will have his name placed
on the mailing list at the agricultural
Experiment Station, Lexington XIV.

The Public Health.

The time is here now when every
citizen of Columbia, and all over the
county for that matter, ought to be
looking at the condition of his premises.
l have had several warnings put in the
papers, about the breeding places of
mosquitoes. l have asked the people
to have their houses screened in order
to prevent flies from spreading diseases.
I have called attention to the filthy
condition of quite number of privies
l have called the attention of the city
authorities to the condition of several
our of streets and alleys; but all these
warnings seem to have fallen upon I'M
listening ears. The season most dam
gerous to the public health is now
commencing. The time for house flies
to get in their unsanitary work is now
here. / have seen no rain barrels
covered, except at my own house. |
have seen none of the privies under
consideration cleaned.
Many of the people seem to be anx-
iously inviting an epidemic of sickness.
! am anxiously trying to avoid sickness.
l am doing my part as best l can. For
two years we have had the lowest NOR
tally per thousand inhabitants of any
city in the United States. Do you want
that record broken? Many of you act
as though you did. You who are Sc
neglecting your duties, will be, in case
of an epidemic, the first ones to throw
stones at the Board of Health. Let us
rouse from our lethargy, wake from
our sleep, and put the town in order
We can prevent typhoid fever, anG
largely prevent consumption if we try
We should not spit on our nice pave
ments. Consumption is spread in that
way. Let us all resolve to quit it.

Accidentally Hurt.

Last Saturday afternoon as Mr..
Robert Bault and two of his daughters
were returning from the Sunday School
Convention at Cane Valley, all three in
one buggy, an accident occurred, Miss
Ollie Bault getting very badly hurt.
On top of the hill, this side of the Ed
Squires place, the mule that was being
driven became frightened and ran. up
setting the buggy. Miss Ollie's head
struck the tire of the buggy, knocking
her senseless and cutting severe cash
in the back of her head. The young
lady was conveyed to her home and
Monday morning she was reported as
getting along nicely.

Essential is The Wrong Word.
Editor of the News:

Editor of the News:
Permit me to correct what l regard
as erroneous in your statement in last
week s issue as to what / hold or teach
about baptism. / have never in all my
ministry said or even thought SO absurd
thing as that baptism is ESSENTIAL
to salvation. -
ESSENTIAL comes from the Latin
ESSE, which means TO BE. When one
talks about the ESSENTIALS of thing,
he ought to mean the materials or ES-
SENCE of which it CONSISTS. The Els.
sENCE of pardon is the gracious ACT OF
GOD. To say that anything else is Es-
sENTIAL to the forgiveness of sins is to
talk nonsence. And by the way, this is
one of the reasons why so much con-
troversy has been INDUCED in on this
subject: people are too inaccurate in
speech to make themselves understood
exactly on an abstruce theme. What l
teach is, that if baptism is in any sense
meanse of grace-if the Master had
any gracious aim in appointing it-one
must observe it to obtain the gracious
gift which He has connected with it and
to fulfill His purpose. In this sense it
is NECESSARY. In this sense it is IN
DISPENsABLE. That is, we have nc
right to dispense With it. Even if it be
fact that God may forgive the neg.
lect of it, that does not make it right
for one to neglect it; and to PRESUME
TO Do so, because He is good and for.
giving, would be to exhibit very un.
dutiful spirit. And mind, when l say
NECESSARY, am speaking of MORAL
NECESSITY. 1 am speaking of that com
polling sense of love and loyalty which
will not let one find peace of conscience
till he has done whatever he is sure his
Lord has commanded him to do.
w. K. Azbill.

My Stay In Columbia.

| have been asked to write on the
above subject. 1t affords me great
pleasure to do so. l came here eight
cen months ago, and found, as had ex-
pected, beautiful, healthy and enthusi-
astic inland city. From day to day the
people have grown on me, till NOW at
last, l can write of my stay as pleas
ant memory.
/ came here a stranger to all, but
soon found that for which every loving
heart pants-fellowship. At no time
during my stay, can call to mind, a
single incident which is unpleasant to
remember. The people of Columbia in
general have captured me with their
kindness, hospitality and ease of living,
and as l go from you feel qualified to
impart that with which you have inn
pressed me. ] take occasion here to
say, have sought to appreciate your
every kindness. I remember with a
thankful heart your every smile, and
would be ungrateful indeed if l were to
forget to say, simply love you, that
is all.
My attitude toward sin has. been an
uncompromising one. l have courted no
sympathy and asked no special favors,
all of which might make me ridiculous
in the eyes of some, but in the eyes of
others manly, courageous and loyal. 1
have not sought to win single pet. I"
j have not cantered to public senti-
ment, but have tried to stand out in the
open for clean life, an open Bible, a
friend to the friendless and salvation to
the lost.
Somehow it is like breaking up home
ties to leave you. 1t was here my wife
was born and our brief stay in her old
home town quickens the sweetest men,
DRY of childhood.
1t will be impossible for me to take
all of you by the hand and say, Good
bye, but if were avoice that could be
heard throughout Adair county, upon
the day of my departure, l would cry;
FINALLY. brethren, farewell. Be per-
feet, be of the same mind, live in peace
and the God of peace shall be with you. "
]. c. Cook.

From the reading of the above it will
be seen that Mr.. Azbill criticises US for

lieves baptism is NECESSARY to saliva

Mr.. John D. Cook, a former citizen
of this place, a brother of Mr.. Geo. w.
Cook, met with painful and serious
accident at Dallas, Texas, last week.
Mr.. Cook is contractor, and was as
sisting in loading material into a car.
When the car came up, the mules
hitched to the loaded wagon, backed,
throwing the iron tipped tongue into
the air. When it came down it struck
Mr.. Cook on the fleshy part of the leg,
cutting severe cash.
