..If any man serve me- let him follow and where
there shall also servants be; any man serve me-
him viii my Father hOnor.-JOhn vii; 20.
Have you looked for the sheep in the desert,
For those that have missed their way!
Have YOU been in the wild waste places
Where the lost and wandering stray!
Have We trodden the lonely highway,
The foul and darksome street!
1t maybe we'd see in the cleaning
The print of my wounded feet.
Have We folded hone to your bosom
The trembling neglected lamb
And taught to the little lost one
The sound of the Shepherds name!
Have We searched for the poor and needy
With no clothing, no home, no bread!
The Son of Man was among them
He had no where to lay his head.
Have We carried the living water,
To the parched and thirsty soul!
Have We said to the sick and wounded,
"Christ Jesus makes the whole!
Have We told my fainting children
OF the strength of the Fathers hand!
Have ye guided the tottering footsteps
To the shores of the golden land!'
Have you stood by the sad and weary
To smooth the pillow of death,
To comfort the sorrow-stricken
And strengthen the feeble faith!
And have we felt, when the glory
Has streamed through the open door
And fitted across the shadows,
Tha | had been there before?
Have We wept with the broken-hearted
In their agony of woe!
You might hear me whispering beside YOU
"Tis the pathway often go!.
NV brethren. my friend, my disciples,
Can We dare to follow me!
Then wherever the Master dwelleth,
There shall the servant be!

CROPS DURING 1918.

Report Of Secretary Of Agriculture
Shows That They Have Fallen OF.
Very brief space is allotted this year
to a discussion of, the crops in the
United States in the report of the Sec
rotary of agriculture, Special empha-
sis is laid on the fact that the figures
quoted are estimates. and it is pointed
out that this fact should be constantly
kept In mind. From the estimates at
hand 1t appears that the production
Of crops in 1913 was materially below
the average. the yield per acre of all
crops combined being smaller than in
any year in the past decade with the
exception of 1911. The corn crop. the
most valuable product of this country.
according to the estimates. fell below
2,5OO.OOO.00O bushels. which is smaller
than any crop since 1908. Wheat pro-
duction. with an estimated total of
753.O0O.OOO bushels. is the largest ever
recorded in this country. This crop
was matured before the drought be-
came effective Brief mention is made
as to crop conditions throughout the
world. From the estimates it appears
that there were increased areas sown
to wheat, oats. barley. rye and corn
and that the wheat acreage has prob
ably yielded a record outturn. Barley,
oats and rye are bountiful crops. but
corn will probably give the poorest re-
suit in twenty years.

Consumpio Takes
$50 People Every Day

In the United States and the sur
prising truth is that most cases are
preventab1e with timely, intelligent
treatment.
These appalling facts should warn
us that after sickness, colds, over
work or any other drains upon
strength, SCOTS Emulsion should
be promptly and regularly used be-
cause tubercular germs thrive only
in a weakened system.
The tested and proven value of
SCOTS Emulsion is recognized by
the greatest specialists because, it's
medical nourishment assimi1ates
quickly to build healthy tissue;
aids in the development Of active,
life-sustaining blood corpuscles;
strengthens the lungs and builds
physical force without reaction.
SCOTS Emulsion is used in tuber-
culosis camps because Of its rare
body building, blood making prop
critics and because it contains no
alcohol or habit-forming drug.
BE sure to insist on SCOTS.

generally it is not profitable. for
; the reason that large quantities

TO enter into new contract with the
Western Union and ordered the re-
moyal of it's poles and wires from
that right of way. The Western IN
ion started condemnation proceed

HOG AND HOMINY
THIS FARM GROWS
Not Worrying About Price Of Cotton
With 215 Hogs and 80 Cows for
Sale. Not Stalk of Cotton.


There is one farmer who lives in
Triton and has a farm two miles out
who is not worrying about the price
of cotton. He has 215 hogs, about
fifty COWS, a sprinkling of sheep and
goats and feed enough to carry all
of these over until spring, with room
for fifty more cows.
Mr.. c. L. Parker thought Proyi-
dence owed him something, for he
got a raw deal from the weather man
for two years. This year he planted
no cotton, and now he and Provi-
dence are even.
He has cultivated a farm of 100
acres with two hands and their fami-
lies. He has a fine crop for which
there is a ready market and is not
losing any sleep worrying with cot
ton pickers.
He has Is acres in corn, velvet
beans and peanuts. The beans are
now in full bearing and almost cover
the ground. From land where ne
planted cucumbers he is gathering a
crop of corn which will yield IS or 40
bushels to the acre. He lost money
on the cucumbers, but got his tertll-
izer back from his corn crop.
Mr.. Parker has 215 hogs, some CT
, them of fine breed. Next year ne
intends to raise 5O0.-TiftOn Ga
