FROM THE SUNNY SOUTH LAND.

Among the many gifts that Nature has
lavished on the South none is more val
liable than her gift OF the cotton plant.
In the soil, warmth and sunshine OF the
South, the cotton plant attains its high
est perfection. Formerly, only the white,
downy lint of the cotton boil was pre-
served, but today, from the kernel OF the
cotton seed is pressed an oil which, when
refined, compares favorably with the
purest olive oil. FROM the choicest OF
this oil of the cotton seed is made a
cooking fat called Cottolene. In citl-

Preached Farewell Sermon.

Rev. r. c. Craven preached his fare
well sermon at the Methodist Episco-
pal church Sunday night and left
Monday to attend conference at Eliza
beth City. Both morning and evening
sermons were heard by good congre-
cations many friends and admirers
OF the popular minister outside OF the
regular attendants being present.
The theme OF the morning discourse
was taken from the text '1 am debt
or" and in its complete and salts
factory consideration from every
phase and viewpoint it seemed to
lack nothing. Mr.. Craven was at bis
best and spoke with deep feeling and
tender emotion At times as befitted
the occasion. The sermon at night
was further elaboration OF the same
text-or the latter part OF ito
whom debtor, and why.
Mr.. Craven has completed the four
years term as pastor of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church in Henderson
and will be assigned bv conference
to another charge He ia the only
preacher who has STAYED the limit
allowed by the Methodist itinerant
system in twenty years. For one
cause or another changes have been
made after the second or third YEARS
passionate, not necessarily through
any desire OF people or pastor, how
ever. Some were made presiding
elders and others sent to certain
charges because of their peculiar
adaptabilitv for the work or exigen-
cies OF the situation.
Pastor Craven has rendered a good
account OF his stewardship. He leaves
the church in good condition finan-
ciallv and otherwise. He went to con-
ference with a clean score-all finan-
cial obligations mat-no deficit to
report. And better than all this the
accessions to the membership and
spiritual condition of the church.
There is regret that Mr.. Craven is
to leave Henderson. He Is popular
as man and preacher and has been
a useful, helpful citizen. He will be.
missed in the community in which he
has been An active, vital force. But
no more 40 than his good wife. In herl

Farmer Who Lives at Home.

Mr.. l. NJ. Green one OF Vance
cOunty's successful farmers OF the
Epson neighborhood, was a caller
at this office yesterday and in the
course of conversation we learned a
few things worthy OF passing along
for the benefit Of others. Mr.. Green
killed hogs last Monday-ten in num-
ber-aggregating 2,720 pounds OF
meat. The heaviest wei hed 3OS
pounds. They were Berkshires, 13
months and 16 days old. From the
same SOW, mother of the hogs killed.
Mr.. Green has sold and engaged $40
worth Of pigs-1O at S. 90 apiece and
6 at 800. Putting the meat just
killed at Is cents a pound ($408.OO)
in Ii months and 16 days this one
SOW with three litters OF pigs has
yielded her owner a revenue of $47S.-
90. Mr.. Green says he raised his
meat at comparatively small cost.
He fed his hogs largely on potatoes
which filled them up and kept them
growing nicely. He had them up
35 days before killing when he fed
corn to put the fat on
Talking about hog raising natural
~ suggested corn growing and Mr..
Green informed us that on Z acres OF
land he made TOY barrels of corn. He
raised 700 bushels OF potatoes and
feeds them to his stock with satisfac-
ton and profit
While on the subject OF hog killing
Mr.. Green said he made 271 pounds
OF sausage and engaged 40 pounds Of
this here Wednesday at 20 cents a
pound.
And yet, Notwithstanding and new
ertheless, when Irving Green had
finished talking and warmed himself
good he bowed himself out OF our
office with perfect good grace and
never said a word Ito us-conf1den-
tally about the best part OF hog

In the absence OF the pastor Sun
day, Rev. William Denham, a student
at Union Theological Seminary,
Richmond, Va, preached in the Pres
byterian church, morning and night.
Both sermons were worthy OF an
older and more experienced person,
admirable in conception and delivery,
apt in illustration and application
and made fine impression on those
who heard him. Mr.. Denham is from
Monticello, Fla, and is finishing his
fourth year at the Seminary. He is
a young man OF good ability and we
predict for him a bright future and a
useful career in his work of the minis
try.
