Side Lines in Farming

A farmer ought to have some thing to sell every time he goes to town. In furnishing such material the dairy stands first, with perhaps the poultay as d close second. At any rute the dairy can be depended upon to supply a means for ready money at all seasons of the year and in a larger. volume than most Of the 'sSide liueS.

General Kuropatkin has published
another volume of his book, Russia

to have joined the Real Russians in
demanding the exclusion of our breth-
rem from the army. The defeated COM
mander of the Far Eastern forces is
evidently anxious to regain his popu-
larity in Russia, and he chose anti
Semitism as the path leading to his
elevation. Hhis statements are all the
more serious because the Jew-baiters
will hail them as criticism from an
experienced general, who, too attrib-
utes his failure in the war to our CO.

The thoughtful student cannot help
but note the wonderful progression
of order preserved in the accounts Of
the creation" A hasty conclusion
would be that man" should have been
the first as he is the highest creation.
But what Go we find? The order eX-
actly reversed, rather from lower to
higher, than vice versa The scient-
list tells us that this is the proper or
der, according to geology.
To detail few of the harmonies
in the progression: LET there be light,
was the first order of the Creator. In
our English word light" we do not get
the same depth of breadth of meaning
that the Hebrew word cor" conveys.
The English word light" gives only
one of the forces of the universe,
while the Hebrew word Eight"

tricity," as we'll as light" Skeptics
contend that light" the result of the

Tradition has it that the day set

significant commemoration in the his
tory of man. God, who had ever reveal
ed Himself in the Quinate moral Law,
now, for the first time, definitely pro-
claimed Himself in the Fiery Deliv-
erance of the Torah. Our Patriarchs,
with the Moral Law written on their
hearts, their conscience bearing wit
ness thereto, needed not the miracle
on Mt. Sinai to persuade them that
God spake these words" But for the
guidance of those less blest morally,
to whom a life of holiness, humility
and self-denial, would prove a trial,
hindrance and burden, it needed
the flush and breath of an
unconsuming fire to impress the ete"n-
al distinctions of Right and Wrong
From that time, all conscientious
men who have been brought under it's
influence, find satisfaction in striving
after the ideal of perfection, which
the Torah reveals. 1t prompts all
men to rise in the moral scale toward
this ideal with the full conviction that

stancy when His sons have triumphed
In Lev. Oh. xiii, V. 10, the Lord
commands that I'VE shall bring a
sheaf of the first fruits of your har-
vest unto the priest" This was first
observed when the children of Israel
were installed in the Land of Canaan.
Only after Joshua had taken the land
was it possible to introduce the entire
Mosaic polity. This was the first sac
rificial observance of Shovuoth.
At the present day, throughout the
world, wherever Jews congregate, the
festival is religiously observed. In Am
erica, where reform Judaism FREEDOM
mates in so many communities, this
feast has been given a poetical
Interpretation by offering on this day
the Confirmants of the congregation
in lieu of the original first fruits as
commanded.
In our present unstable religious en-
vironment, Reform thinks it wise to
invest the day with a sentimental val
ue, thereby not losing, but rather
bringing home more forcibly the re-
ligious lesson it would teach. And
what more appropriate substitute for
the first fruits" than the conservation
of the young hearts of Israel to the
service of the Lord? Where the les
sons preceding the confirmation have
been adequately expounded by the
teacher and fully imbibed by the chill
dren, the day will ever stand out as
the most significant in the lives of our
future Jews and Jewesses.
But even with the most brilliant
showing mlde by Rabbi and pupils
mot much hope can be held out for
the future of Judaism here unless all
this is supplemented by more religi-
GUS and respectful attitude at home on
the part Of the parents of the Con-
firmants.

In Memoriam.

While loved ones fingered
round the bedside, the soul of
the mother was sweetly called
home.
| Mrs. Frances Elizabeth Gates
(nee O'NeaD was born at Selma,
Ala, March 2, 1888, and died at
the home of her daughter, Mrs.
Bob Garmon, in Verona, Miss,
July 10, 1910.
At the age of fifteen years
she joined the M. e. Church,
South, and ever afterwards lived
a consistent christian life. She
loved the church. and it was her
delight to attend all services.
She was twice married. First
to Mr.. M. R. Gilmer. From this
union four children were born,
two sons and two daughters. A
Son and daughter, with the faith
er. preceded her to the glory
land. In 1889 she was married
to Mr.. T. J. Gates. God calling
him home about eight years ago,
she was left a widow the second
time.
Mrs. Gates was a devoted wife,
a tender, loving mother and
grandmother, and a faithful
friend. In sickness, IN health,
in joy or in sorrow, her gentle,
kind words were with friends
and neighbors. She had a cheer
full, sunny nature, always look
ing upon the bright side and had
a pleasant word for everyone.
Her last illness was of short du-
ration, and although she suffered
greatly she did not murmur. She
said God had been good in letting
her live seyenty-two years, and
that she was ready and willing
to go when he called.
AS was her custom, she spent
the winter at her nome in Missis-
sippi City and at Gulfport. In
April she went to Indianola to
her son, Mr.. ]. w. Gilmer. On
July 4th she bade farewell to her
old home at Indianola as she
told her grandchildren for the
last time. She came on to We
roma to her daughter, Mrs. Bob
Garmon, and was taken sick on
July 9Th and died July 10Th. All
that was possible was done to
save her life. and while the
weeping children, the devoted
son. in-law and daughter-in-law,
grandchildren, relatives and
friends stood by asking God to
spare the life that was so dear
to them, the gentle spirit slipped
out and went home to God.
After the funeral services,
conducted by Rev. D. w. Babb,
her body was laid to rest in Zion
cemetery. May heavens richest
blessings rest upon the sorrow
ing ones.
'1t'was only the footsteps of angels
| That silently entered the door,
And carried our own dear mother
To dwell on that beautiful shore.
It was only touch, soft and loving.
| Aud then the dear form was at rest:
| While the soul of our loved one departed
To dwell with the pure and the blest. -
A FRIEND.

typhoid fever and in fact any
intestinal disease. Every family
should screen against this insect
and keep it from coming in con-
tact with the food. Ninety-fve
per cent of the common house
fly breed in and about the stable,
therefore by keeping the stable
clean and the manure in a bin in
few years flies would be hardly
noticeable.
Malaria is one of the most
prevalent diseases Of Mississippi.
Fifteen thousand people die from
this disease annually throughout
the south. and hundreds of reo-
pie are rendered incapable of
making a living. This is trans
mitted only by the mosquito and
the species of mosquitoes which
spread the disease flies only at
night. 1t is not due to bad water
or bad air as formerly supposed.
If we will protect ourselves by
screens, and sleeping under mos
quito bars from this insect, the
danger of catching the disease is
greatly reduced. The best way
to eradicate malaria is to prevent
stagnant water from standing
around and thereby prevent the
mosquito from breeding. Ii a
pond is too large to be drained
then it could be covered by a
cheap grade of oil which would
kill these insects in the process
of development. If every family
would see that sanitary con-
ditions prevailed around the home
in few years this disease
would be the exception rather
than the rule.
''The hookworm disease is very
prevalent in the south. Recent
investigations show that hun
1
dreds OF cases of this debilitating
disease is in Mississippi. This
organism is not the cause of lazl-
ness but like any other agent OF
disease when one becomes infec-
ted it causes the body to become
weakened and person afflicted
with this trouble is simply sick,
and therefore incapable Of work
ling as one should. This disease
offers a problem to the people Of
the south just as any other dis
ease. It is not a fad but real
! ity. The problem Of eradicating
disease is one peculiar to every
state in the union, and in discus.
sing these questions for the pub
lie good there is no inference
that our state is any the worse
than any other state, but in or
! der to mike it better it is i'm
perative that we face the prob
I lens as they exist. Indeed Mis-
sissippi is entering upon the mos1
prosperous period in her history
and our people are happy ant
] progressive. But by improving
the sanitary conditions of th'
! state it is perfectly clear tina
they will be happier and ever
