On the Iron Mountain Railroad de-
monstration farm at Hope, Ark, oat
land plowed four inches deep yielded
but 23 bushels to the acre, while the
same land plowed ten inches deep
and fertilized yielded n bushels to the
acre. This increase results from the
fact that the deep plowing afforded a
better reservoir for soil water, and
dry weather did not delay the growth.
In the deeper plowing large supply
of moisture came in contact with
more soil particles and dissolved
more plant food. There was also
more pace for root development, and
the larger root development was en-
abled to secure more moisture and
more plant food.

Obituary.

Margaret Lee Carl, infant daughter
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Claud Carl, was born
November 26, 1912, and died Augusta,
1918, aged months and 6 days.
God forbade her longer stay,
God recalled the precious loan!
He hath taken her away,
From our bosom to his own.
Surely what he wills is best;
Happy in his will we rest.
How we miss her, our little pet!
Though her life was short, she was
dearly loved by all who knew her.
'Tis so hard to give our little darling
up, yet we, could we, would not bring
her back.
We know little Margaret is safe
within the Fathers mansion; and we
should rather be thankful that God
loved our little baby too dearly to al
low her to remain long in this sinful
world and to suffer, perhaps, the
consequences of sin as do those who
are permitted to stay. She has gone
from this dark land of sin and shame
and is now dwelling in q land of light,
love and righteousness.
The little light that twinkled SO
brightly in our home few short
months is now shining in heaven. The
tender little plant thatwas cut down
so early there has been transplanted
there to place of endurance. God
allures US to brighter worlds by re-
moving our brightest objects of af-
lection here. The ties which bound
our hearts to earth shall henceforth
bind them to heaven. And how
precious the Savior seems when we
feel that our baby isl safe with Him.
He will not permit her to return to us,
but He can take us to that bright
place where Margaret is and some
glad day when life is o'er, we'll join
her there and part no more.
| All night long we watched the ebbing
il life,
AS if it's flight to stay;
Till as the dawn was coming up
Our last hope passed away.
Above the couch we bent and prayed
In the half lighted room;
) AS the bright hues of infant life
Sank slowly into gloom.
At last the futteriug pulse stood still
The death frost through her clay
Stole slowly; and as morn came up,
Our sweet flower passed away.
The form remained; but there was nov
No soul our love to share;
!. No warm responding lip to kiss
For Margaret was not there.
+ But years are moving quickly past,
} And time will soon be o'er;
| Death shall be swallowed up in life
On the immortal shore.
: Then shall we clasp that hand one,
more,
r And smooth that soft brown hair;
y Then shall we kiss those lips again,
For Margaret shall be there. x.
