In truck farming and grain raising
Maryland is probably more advanced
than most of the other Southern States,
and the special trains that have car
ried the agricultural evangelists from
one end o. the State to the other have
produced lasting results. Our State
Experiment Station and the Maryland
Agricultural College stand in the front
rank. But more experiment farms are
needed, and the organization OF corn
clubs, the offer OF prizes for the raising
OF fruits and vegetables, to be exhibit
ed here during Maryland Week" and
at the various county fairs, will stim-
ulate competition and excite whole
some rivalry that will enlist the inter-
est OF the young farmers in every
county.-Baltmore Sun.

Building Up The Farms

The Federal government, the STATES
and the railroads are making plans on
a broad scale to aid the Southern far
mer in increasing the fertility OF his
lands and the yield OF his crops For
many years the late DR.. Samuel Knapp
carried on experimental work and SOW
ed the seeds that some day will yie.d
rich harvest to the Southern planter
He lived to see his disciples numbered
by the thousand, and the people to
whom he had devoted so large a part
OF his life show their appreciation OF
his work.
Intensive culture has proven COM
plete success even on the poorest
south Carolina sand hills. Thomas
Hitchcock, Jr., turned over to the
Government experts his 5000 acre es-
tate near Aiken, S, c.. and put up the
money for experimental work. Ira W..
Williams, DR.. A. G.. Smith and their
assistants in three years have made this
supposedly worthless land produce bet
ter crops than the rich acres in other
sections. They believe they can make
this sandy soil grow 40 or so bushels
OF corn, bale or more OF cotton or
two tons of cowpea hay TO the acre.
There are said to be about 1000 square
mics OF this soil in oouth Carolina
alone and millions OF acres in Georgia,
Alabama. North Carolina, Florida and
neighboring States.

HISTORY

The Protestant Episcopal Church in
Delaware is filled with interesting ms
tory. The following clippings are TAX
en- from a recent issue OF the Every
Evening OF Wilmington:
The oldest church in which her lit
urgy is used, and perhaps the Oldest
Protestant place OF worship in the
United States is the venerable Old
Swedes Church in this city. The first
Swedish colony under Minuer, in 1898,
landed al the Point OF Rocks on the
shore OF the Christiana River, now
marked approximately by the rock
around which fence is erected that
can be seen from boats passing out OF
the Christiana. On this site one OF the
lrst cares OF these settlers was to build
a place OF divine worship. This site
was called a. the time Fort Christine.
Minuet was accompanied by clergy
man named Torkillus, who othciated
till his death. in 1913.
The cornerstone OF the present Cd
Swedes Church was not aid until
March 2Sth. 1903. The church was io--
rnal,y dedicated on Trinity Sunday o.
the year following, and was nance
Trinity Church. 1t was about 1890 tl.at
the cnurch in this country severed It's
connection with the mother church i'll
England Trinity Church, after this
date came under the care OF clergymen
OF the Protestant Episcopal Church,
II was not until after 1901 that mission
airy work was taken up by chartered
society.
The second church was that which
was built at Crane II look, on the south
side OF the Christiana, in 1867. 1t was
supplied NTH religious services by
Lock, the only Swedish clergyman in
the colony, who also had to supply, as
well as he could, the congregation that
still met at the fort and that at Iinicum
near the mouth OF the Schuylkill.
William Penn sent to this colony a
parcel o. books and catechisms, With
a folio Bible for their church, and by
petitioning the Swedish ambassadol
in London for ministers and books tor
them assisted wonderfully in increas-
ing their strength. SO that church con-
tinued through various successes ano
oitentime discouragement until the
present day.
In 1904. Emmanuel P. L. Church, al
New Castle, was founded and the build
ing was finished and opened i'll 1906
Rev George Ross was s>nt as mis-.
sionary to New Castle in 1905. Dur
ing his pastorate at New Caste, Mr.
Ross also had charge OF the service:

Aneas Ross, the son, was in charge O

from 1857 to 1882, which embraced
