Planning Farm Work Ahead.

AS this is read the active season
so FAR as the production of our sta
pl crops is concerned, will be drawing
to Il close. 1t is true that some Guilt
walton still remains to be done; but at
most the farmer can do little more
henceforth toward making the crop.
If hte present outlook is poor, if
stands are bad, and if unfavorable
weather conditions appear to have cut
yields, we believe in many CAGES the
trouble may largely be attributed to
lack of vegetable matter-h;mus- .
in the land and to n lack of adequate
preparation. Now that the less sire
nuous days are here and we have
some time to look about us and plan
next years work, the progressive far
mer will begin to seek some way of
avoiding repetition of the Losses sas.
tanned this year.
Right now one of the most profit
able bits of planning any farmer can
do is to arrange to plant some clover
this fall. If n small patch was grown
last year the acreage this fall should
be increased, and if none has hitherto
been grown, by all means small
patch should be planted. Bear in mind
that here we have reference particu-
iarly to bur and crimson clovers, two
great winter soil builders that have
proved successful on practically ev-
cry welh drained soil type in the south.
We want to emphasize, too, the inn
portance Of getting clover seed early,
as it seems almost certain now that
the demand will far outrun the supply.
We are here emphasizing this mat
ter of n cover crop of clover because,
as we have often said before, it is
only the farmer with rich, clover
covered, humus-flled soil that is ever
to make anything Farming. These
cover crops offer such a cheap and
splendid means of filling the soil with
fertility that we believe no man is
realizing on his opportunities who
fails to grow them. Get in touch with
reliable growers and dealers at once
and prepare to become clover grow
err and soil builder.-The Progressive
Farmer.

have less and less in common. In
my youth parents and children
played together, and studied to-
gether, and stayed at home to-
gether, and went to church to-
gether. We sec as little of our
children as possible nowadays,
to the great loss of us all. But
at least we can go to Gods house
on the Lords day! The children
would soon enjoy going if it
were a family custom, and if
they didn't enjoy it, it would be
a wholesome thing for them to
discover that there are lots of
things in this world to be done,
whether we enjoy doing them
or not. That is the kind of les
son the coming generation par
ticularly needs.
But going to church has
above all religious value. And
let me tell you, if you are set
ting deliberately about abolish
ing the church altogether at the
end of another generation, the
surest way of doing so would be
to let that generation grow up
the habit of the church
attendance. Whether or not you
help them to form that habit
certainly seems to me impor-
tamil"
Mrs. Jenkins no longer smiled.
And so it seems to me-" she
said.-Youth's Companion.

The Church Habit.

(From the Clinch Valley Baptist.)
'NO," said Mrs. Jenkins, "the
children do not get to church
very often. They goto their Sun
day school and l think that's
enough"
DR.. Brown did not seem to be
convinced so she continued: "Of
course | should like them all to
go with me to the church SER
vice, but they are not much in
terested, and / do not insist! !"
"You insist on their going to
day school, whether or not they
are interested, l SUPPOSED" the
minister asked.
"Why certainly" Mrs. Jenk-
ms answered, with some indig-
nation.
"But why should you leave
this other matter, which seems
to me at least of equal impor-
lance, to their caprice?"
at isn't wholly a matter of
caprice" Mrs. Jenkins returned
with some spirit. Il think it is
too much to ask little children to
sit through that long morning
service"
"That long morning service
averages about an hour and a
half" answered the clergyman,
'"The same children sit through
two sessions at school every day
each session longer than that
You and /, in our youth, sat
through much longer services on
every Sunday, and our nervous
systems compare rather well
with those of the children OF
today"
"Do you really think it is very
important for the children to at
tend church 2"

Estimate of Greater Crops.

In the August government
crop report, which was issued on
Friday afternoon, July 81, the
estimated yield of winter wheat
par acre was raised to nineteen
bushels, which means crop of
672, $4,000 bushels, against
G53,000,000 bushels forecasted
in the July report and 521,000,-
600 bushels harvested last year.
Some lowering of the spring
wheat condition was expected as
a result of heat, drought and
black rust; but as the yield will
be based on ia bushels per
acre, or eight-tenths of one bus
hel higher than in July, there
would have to be a reduction of
10 points to bring the estimated
yield down 100000 bushels
from the 275, 0,000-bushel es-
innate Of month ago. Even
that reduction would mean a
condition of eighty-fve and
crop of 264, 100000 bushels, aga
inst 232,819,000 bushels last
year. Such an indication would
foot up a total wheat crop of
936,000,000 bushels or 5000, 900
bushels more than the preceding
forecast, and comparing with
763,380,000 bushels harvested
last year. A lowering of the con-
dition of corn from the 1913 of
the July report is expected, due
to drought and high tempera-
lures. The loss will be mainly in
the South and Southwest. A
drop of 5 points would Indicate
a yield of 2,836,000,000 bushels,
one of 8 points would suggest
2,700,000,000 bushels. The par
yield is advanced IL bushels per
acre, which is equal to 178, 000,-
600 bushels. The real estimate
last month was 2,916,572,0O0
bushels, and the final result last
year was 2,446,988,000 bushels,
while the fve-year average is
2,708,000,000 bushels.
1t will take a decrease of the
oat condition one and one-half
POINTS to make a crop of 1904
100000 bushels. The final last
gear was 1,76S,0O0 bushels,
while the five-year average is
!, 100,000,000 bushels.

In my humble Judgment one
OF the best indications of i'm
provement among the people of
our beloved country is the fact
that they are thinking for them
selves more than ever before
Inns being true, former i'm
positions and expressions will no
longer be endured. The peonle
have rights and they intend to
contend for them. If people al
low others to do their th,nkino
for them they ofttimcs become
Inc victims of false leadership
III politics, commerce, education
religion, etc. AS soon as evil lea,
ders ascertain that they no long
er have followers they will cease
to be.
To follow pure and wise lea
dership is the right thing to do.
and thinking people gladly do
IL, but thoughtless persons are
often led astray by false leaders
There has been a wonderful
awakening of the public con-
science; the so-called lords of
finance could a few years ago do
with lmpunity what, if thew
should do now, would land them
IN the penitentiary. This happy
state of things is due to the fact
that the masses of the people
are doing their own thinking.
This is an encouraging sign
of the times. No people can be-
come developed people, self-re-
liant people, until they do their
own thinking and acting.
God hasten the day when all
OF our citizens will do their own
rlght-thinking. Then the damn
able liquor traffic will be utterly
destroyed, political demagogues
will be out of a JOB, oppressive
financiers will have a day of
reckoning and there will be a
Juster distribution of the pro-
ducts of nature. Methinks, the
improper use of money, spread
ing broadcast over our State
of liquor literature and other ,
efforts put forth by the advo- !
Gates of the traffic, will all come
to naught, because the people .
are beginning to do their own 6
thinking. Give the people a
chance; let them consider, argue
reason, ponder over these differ
emit policies and nine times out a
of ten they will do the right I
thing. have confidence in a
people who will do real thinking
about what is to their best in |
terest-they are seldom, if t
ever, wrong. t

the printing press, good roads,
quick ways of locomotion, etc.

of general intelligence, and are $
making our people a thinking =
people, putting them in touch I
with the pulse of the world, and c
enabling them to know the right
and to successfully contend for
it. They have reached the point
where they refuse to be exploit

right-thinking continue to grow ,
until the whole mass of out citi-
zenship shall be leavened with
