Farming at night is the innova-

Fowler, who lives twelve miles
west of Lodi, Cal. Fowler has
two crews of six men each and
has been ploughing night and
day. Immense searchlights are
attached to the ploughs and the
,laborers declare that they can
see at night almost as well as
during the day. An incongruons
feature OF the work is that when
the night crew is eating break
fast at six o'clock at night the
day shift is eating supper from
the same table. Fowler is plant
ing 1900 acres Of barlie and has
restorted 10 the novel scheme OF

LETTER TO D. L. WRGnR,
Jefferson, Texas.

One Of the ways to get rich is
to make a quartz look like thirty
There's a better: make it thirty
cents. 1t has this advantage:
one keeps out Of Jail. .r,...
There are 200 paint maufac-
turers making a quarter look
like 80 40 50 80 cents and all the
odd cents betwee. That is, their
paints profess to be paints, and
they are, in about the proper
tons named; they get 30 to 60
cents for a quarter .worth;
some get IS.
There's a better way to pay to
paint; Devoe. There are eight
honest paints. BY . honest, "
we mean not-adulterated and full
measure. The honest ones diff
fer; no two alik. In one, the
quarter is worth q or % cents;
in another, 80 cents; there must
be q best one in eight; it is the
one that takes least gallons to
cover a job-Devoe. - E-.~
To cover; that seems a light
way to speak Of paint. No, it
isn't. That's what paint is for;
to cover. It means to hide and
protect. The paint that goes
furtherest is best, wears longest.
Go-far is all; and Devoe is the go.

Obituary..

The Lord in His divine provi-
dence, seen fit to take from
among us our friend and sister
in the M. E. church, Mrs. Nancy
LOrena Bramtley.
She was born in South Caro-
lima September Sth, 1885, and
died January 18th, 1912, at Sui
phur Springs, Texas, She was
the wife of Robert H. Bramlett
deceased, who preceded her
some fourteen years ago. She
was laid to rest in Prospect
cemetery, six miles from Jeffer-
son, Texas. She was the moth
er of seven children, six boys
and one girl; six of them survive
her. She mas three sons chat
live near Jefferson, Texas. They
are industrious, Christian gen.
tlemen. They are members Of
the NJ. E. church South, in good
standing and faithful workers in
the cause of Christ. also Robert
II. Bramlet who was a member
of the M. E church. The ser
vices was conducted by Bro.
Mathison. Song led at the grave
by j. M. Clinkscales, Mother 1
will Meet YOU"
Mrs. Bramlett leaves host Of
friends to mourn her death. She
has been a member of the NJ. E.
church from nearly a child and
has been at all times loyal to her
church and the cause Of Christ.
She was a kind and affectionate
wife, a sympathizing and loving
mother and while her loved ones
have been bereft and the church
has has had one of it's best mem
bers transferred, yet we rejoice
that all things work together for
them that love God.
Oh, a mothers love! The love
we should bear to mother is
not to be measured by years nor
annihilated by distance or for
gotten when she sleeps in dust.
Who has stood by the grave of
a mother and not remember her
pleasant smiles, kind words,
earnest prayers and assurance
expressed in dying houry
Why may we not linger where
rest all that was earthly Of a be-
loved parent?
The mothers love is indeed the
golden cord which binds youth
to age and he is but "a child how
ever time may have furrowed
his cheeks or silvered his hair,
who can yet recall with soften
ed heart the fond devotion or the
gentle chidings of the best Of
friends that God eyer gave US.
So, loved ones, be as true to
your Savior and His church as
your mother was and you will be
permitted to meet her in heaven
and live with her forever.
Written by friend sincere.
