VALUE OF COVER CROPS.


A few of the valuable features of
a cover crop may be named as fol-
lows
1. 1t ur>vents loso of soil fer
tility hv washing. Lands that lie
bare during the winter may loose
more plant food bvleachin9 than is
used bv the CROP that grows there
during the summer.
2. It furnishes Grazing to
stock at time when food of all
kinds is scarce. 1t also produces
health and vi9or in animals and
keeps UP good flow Of milk OF
dairy COWS. Anv successful system
of livestock production is LARGELY
dependent upon winter as we'll as
summer grazing.
+ 8. If we ever establish an en-
during and prosperous agriculture
in the State we shall have to get
humus (veeetable or organic matter)
into our soils. Growing a winter
cover crop is one of the ways Of
doing this. All fa1med lands
should grow at least two crops DER
year,-a sale crop and soil-im
Drovement crop whether this is
left on tn, land or first fed to
stock and then returned there.
A decline in SOL fertility is not al
ways due to a lack of NITROGEN.
potash or phosphoric acid. It is
often due to the absence of humus.
There are ten or plants that are
suitable for winter growing in North
Carolina. One or more of them is
adapted to the various soil types
and sections of the State. We shall
be pleased to enroll all farmers who
will help carry forward this inn :

The pastor. Rev. Joseph F. Cobb conducted the evening vesper service at the Church of the Good Shepherd at 7.45 o'clock Tuesday evening. This vices held under the joint auspices of the Universalist. and Broadway and Second Congregational churches Prayer was offered by Rev. H. J Wyckoff and Rev. E. s. Worcester read from the scripture.
 The subject of the address by Rev. MT. Cobb was Today, Jesus Appre- ciation of His Present Situation in the Closing Days of His Ministry. The text was taken from Luke, 2:51: should be received up He steadfastly set His face to go up to Jerusalern.' 2 The speaker said in part:
 During Jesus ministry in GahIee He whose guilty conscience identified him with that bold herald of right eousness and of the coming kingdom of God, John the Baptist, whom he had beheaded.
 Jesus as Johns successor had ral- lied about Him great multitudes in the most popufous centers of Galilee. Not only was -Herod watching Jesus, but Jesus was doubtless aware of the significance of that surveillance.
 The End Approaching.
 The news that John had been be- l4CdISd Was U OSSdS lld0 dllilSLdf- able sign that the days of his activity in GaIilee were limited.
 The two strongest forces in Pal estine were allied against him; both were inspired with the Jealous fear that his growing authority with the m asses would --endanger their own.
 Herod possessed the power and when he struck the blow would be sud- den, secret and deadly.
 There is also reason to believe that If at this stage would have endangered

 At this period Jesus lost His pop ularity. for the people were intent chiefly on physical health and mir aeulous signs and were dissatisfied with the ethical and spiritual food that he gave. This marks a crisis in His Galileean ministry.

 cess He was compelled suddenly to life beyond the bounds of Galilee
 From this time on Efis task was to perfect the training and faith of the few who were loyal to Him.
 During this period Jesus tried to impress upon His disciples the spir- itual clements in His conception of the task of the Messiah.

But as a careful student of the second Isaiah and of the larger book of life He recognized that the way in which the servant of Jehovah was to perform his task was the way of seeming shame and Of patient suffer ing and of complete self sacrifice.
 Jesus understood that He must lay down His life.
 He had prepared Himself for it. He however did not purpose to let his mission fail for He made certain of the continuation of His work
 It was with this idea that He ate the passover with them, and then at this farewell meeting with them He gave an exhibition of His. character and purpose as He washed the disci- ples' feet and instituted the Lord s supper that they should ever memem- Der Him and His work.
 Whenever they met to partake of a meal they should remember him.
 It was reminder of the covenant which bound them together closer than the bonds of blood -kinship and of that new personal relation which Jesus had sought to establish between each of His followers and their com mon Father.
 Facing the cross. with His heart burning within Him for the welfare of His people, He absolutely surren- dered Himself to do the will and work of the Father.

 The one wreck that the autochemical experienced served to show how val uable it was to have the repair factory close at hand. for the car was in ser vice the same day again at p. m., coming from the Pope Hartford fac tory at once.
 4 comparison of mileage and amount of gasoline used will show a little bet ter than three miles to gallon, but this is not all represented ir running distance outside the station. as the ton, and this all counts in gasoline consumption without showing in the mileage. Chief Stanton estimates that about four miles to the gallon is near CT the actual showing fer the car The car has never failed to start when cranked up at the station for an alarm or to test the motor at the regular signal times.
 Some of the more notable perform ances in answering for calls out of the city limits has been at the pr. Hills house at Norwich Town and at the McNaily and Avery Bros. places in that neighborhood, and the Lucas mill at Poouetanuck. At the Dr. Hills the house, but by making a run in record time, the autochenaical men, without water, saved the house with very little damage
 Many of the fires in the city which had the makings of confagrations were held in check by the quick re- spcnse which the autochemical was able to make. Among these Chief Stanton points out the fire in the Aus tin building, that in the Turr bull ga rage and the two in the Chapman building. By the quick hitch which the autochemica1 made at the Austin building fire they had a stream on from hydrant at the foot of the Main street hill before there was a stream on from a hydrant right across the street from the building where the fire was this hydrant being taken by an other fire company.
