The finest wheat ever seen here is
growing now, and many farmers will
make their bread supply, something of
a new departure in recent years.
In a fifty-mile ride over the county
a day or two ago the writer saw some
of the finest portions of the county,
and the best crops to be found any
where. In this distance not one acre
of uncUltiyated land was to be seen,
while the cotton and corn fields were
perfectly free of grass
Farmers are well up with work and
more contented than ever.
There is little, if any increase in the
cotton acreage in Sumter this year.
Sumter is now as much a grain-produc-
ing county as it was an all-cotton
county a few years ago, and the divis-
ion this year as between grain and
cotton is we'll nigh even.
Diversification is the watchword, too.
in this new march of progress, and
hay, cane, potatoes and the smaf1er
crops are given special attention. Ey-
cry Sumter county farmer is fast
learning to live wholly at home.
The cool weather of the past week
has done no material damage to the
cotton crop, as anticipated, and with
continued favorable seasons a record
crop seems assured. Planting is COM
pleted and stands are excellent. AS a
rule, many farmers are almost through
chopping, and only sunshine and show
ers are needed now to insure yield of
$4,000 bales in Sumter.
This is indeed the banner county
and the garden of Southwest Georgia.
In other counties ontigious-notably
Lee, Schley, Macon, Webster and Crisp
conditions are as good as could be de-
sired or expected. Crops in all Sec
tions are excellent, and the prospect
the finest ever known at the end of
April.

pentance is one sign of grace, but it
alone does not relieve of the guilt of
sin. ig@
Another means whereby men seek
remission Of sin is by or through good
deeds and self-denial. Now these are
good. Let us have reformation But
the question is how is a past debt
paid by not getting further in debt?
Does future good behavior condone for
past delinquencies?
Others believe that in the cere-
monies of the church there is re-
mission of sin. How wide of the
mark! We are baptized because we
are saved and wish to obey Gods COM
mandment; We are not baptized in or
der that we may be saved.
Nov all of these means or meth
DDS are futile fancies. These. things
mentioned above are parts of the Cos
pei, but not the heart of the gospel.
Gods plan for salvation from sin
is through a personal faith in the
Cucifed Christ This sacrifical act
of Jesus was foretold in the Old Tes-
lament, and emphasized in the New.
Jesus often spoke of the Calvary ex?
perience and of the glorious benefits
which would ensue. The sacrifice of
Jesus satisfies the Righteous and Holy
God, and when God looks upon you in
Christ He beholds new creature.
MANS part, you say? Well, it is
| to trust Him. Believe in the plan Of
God and commit yourself to it. If
we had had our way we would nc
doubt have devised some active plan
but Gods way is plain and simple. The
only place of safety is found in the
Cross of Christ. In the cross We see
the fullest expression of grace. Won
drous cross! You are not redeemed
with corruptible things, but with the
precious blood Of Christ"

PERMISSION OF Sins"
MOVEDELARGE AUDIENCE
Rev. CRANBERRY Delivered
Powerful Sermon

Interest in the revival services at
the Furlow Lawn Baptist church con-
tinues. The clear, forceful sermons
by Mr. Cranberry have found attenU-
i've listeners.
Last nights sermon was one of
special appeal and marked interest.
The texts were:
Hebrews 9:22.-"Wihtout the She'd
ding of blood there is no remission. s.
/ John 1:7-"The blood of Jesus Christ
HIS Son cleanseth from all sim"
MAN should be careful Of how he
speaks of the death of Christ The
Book declares that one of the greatest
themes of all Revelation is that re-
mission or forgiveness of sin is posi-
BILE through shed blood-the life-of
Jesus The worlds wisdom will make
merry around the cross, but the wis
dom that is from above compels rev.
erential acceptance of the great and
glorious fact of Jesus sacrifice for
mankind.
Various, indeed, are oftentimes the
methods used by men to secure rennis-
sion of sin. One of these is seen in
repentance. If you have a sorrow fol
your sin, God accepts you This doc,
trine is untrue to the Word. We
should repent, but all the repentance
in the world cannot blot out one spot
of hideous uncleanness. There is nc
atoning power in bare repentance. Re.

This is a question that the people de

communications on this subject that are
being received by members of Congress.
Express companies ought to be per
mitted to make a good liberal rate of in
terest on money actually invested, -

that the government permits express
companies to extort a profit of from 25
to 50 per cent on capitalization that is
