In Memory of Malcolm John Nc
Donald.

The subject of this sketch died
very suddenly at his home near Car
ollna church on Nov. %, 1911, at
the age of So years.
He was in the best of spirits and
In his usual good health.
Ills life was one the purest and
most unselfish that it has been our
privilege to know.
without warning and in the
twinkling of an eye, he was called
from the earthly cares of this life
to the Heavenly home above.
Mack was noted for his devotion
to his only son, whom he came as
near worshiping as a consecrated
loyal Christian could do. His op-
lnion and what he said was for him
final, for to it he heartily consent
ed and approved.
But as is always the case it was
rewarded here and will not be for
gotten in the world above.
If any part of the church work
was dearer to him than another, it
was the mems prayer meeting, of
Carolina Church. He was always
there in his place by the window,
unless Providentially hindered.
His life, though comparatively
short. is not ended here. Its influ-
ence will continue to work and
grow. It's full meaning will only
De seen when we shall meet face to
face with loved ones gone before
and with friends all with whom
he so faithfully served. Therefore,
be 1t resolved,
First, That, though we shall miss
his companionship and helpful
counsel still we recognize the hand
of a wise Father, who "doeth all
things well," and we bow in hum
Bile submission to this divine will.
Second, That we extend to his be-
reaved loved ones our sincere SYM
pathy and commend them in love to
the God in whom he trusted.
Third, That a copy of these reso-
lutions be placed on the minutes of
the mems prayer meeting of Carroll
ma church, and copy given to The
Dillon Herald and Presbyterian
Standard for publication.

Last of all came the handsome

new CROP FOR NORTHWEST

More than 1, 500 acres of non-irri-
gated lands in the Walla Walla
valley, south of Spokane, and other
parts OF eastern Washington will be
planted to broom corn this spring.
The crop has been grown success
fully in the Touchet, Gardena and
Snake river districts and the pro-
duct marketed at good figures.
Gustav Meese, owner of a broom
factory in Spokane, says an acre of
land, properly cultivated, will pro-
duce 1, 500 pounds of broom corn,
which, at the prevailing price of
800 ton, means a gross production
OF about S65 an acre, or from 100
to $50 percent more than the
revenue from an acre of wheat.
Manufacturers in the Northwest are
encouraging the growers by en-
larging their plants to work up all
the raw material that is offered.
The combined output of two fac
tories in Spokane and Walla Walla is
115 dozens of brooms day, but the
supply is not equal to the demand.

SHEEP TO KEEP DOWN WEEDS

Five hundred bead of sheep and
an experienced herder will be en-
ployed this season in an endeavor
to eradicate thistles and weeds on
the banks Of the Sunnyside canal.
The animals will go over the ground
three times during the growing
period. Afterward the banks will
be seeded with white clover and blue
grass, rye being used in the dryer
portions to bind the soil. /
Joseph O. Jayne of Spokane,
whose Investigations for the United
States department of agriculture in
clude the maintenance and opera
ton of irrigation canals in this
district, said in making the fore
going announcement that it cost
the management Of the Sunnyside
project several thousand dollars last
year to destroy weeds and growths
along the canal right-of-way.
Railroad officials, municipal or
carnations and farmers and or
chardists all over the United States
and Canada, as we'll as ditch owners
and growers in the irrigated districts
will watch the outcome of this ex-
pertinent with keen interest, as the
solution of the weed problem in
America will mean the saving Of
hundreds of thousands of dollars ex-
pended annually in controlling the
rank growths.
The uncultivated banks of irriga-
ton canals afford the most inviting
propagation ground for thistles,
wild mustard, saltbush and other
noxious weeds, the seeds of which,
carried by the wind and the water
in laterals, are scattered far and
wide. In many instances the
growth becomes so dense that it is
difficult to pass through on foot or
on horseback, and when occurring on
large fills hiding places are afforded
to burrowing animals, which are
menaces to banks and often the
cause of disastrous breaks in canals.
