INTERESTING FARM NOTES.

to make the hole and fill; how to leave

branches to the west but says to not

three years. Now, brother, do this one
time. Take any apple, peach or pear
tree that is in good condition for
transplanting; cut OFF all branches
then cut from straight twig the last

will be as large as the one you have
moved from the nursery bed, provided
you make d large hole then fill in

THE MILITARY BOYS ARE
NOT STILL CAPTURERS.

Editor Hustler-Democrat:
The Militia of Henderson County or
OF any other place is in no way con-
Lected with the Revenue Service.
It has come to my knowledge tina.
there is report circulated in some
parts of the county to the effect thar
members of the militia are bound in
some way to report stills and take part
in revenue operations. thereby brand
this report as a falsehood and state
that no member of this company is in
any way connected with the revenue
service and the person who started
such a report, either had some desire
to injure this company or else person
al reasons. The purpose of the militia
is to defend their country in time o.
war and to preserve order in case of
riot or instruction.

WHAT MAN LIVES THE IDEAL AND
: SUCCESSFUL LIES

Editor Democrat:
Ideals the idealist, and the ideal life,
re words and terms greatly overwork-
ed by orators and public speakers in
this day and time of ours. There once
lived a king who has been and is still
pronounced the wisest man who ever
lived on this earth, and the most fear
full Indictment ever brought against
any man was brought by this man
! against himself and alas, how many
great and successful men in these
modern days of ours, must bring the
same accusation against themselves.

rent and tore the Jewish hierarchy to
pieces, Immediately after his death.
Look at the scandalous life he lived in

graded women. Either himself or his
father David, before him, living the
lives they lived, while kings of the
Israelitish people, had they been presi-
dents of the United States in our day
and time, would have been impeached
for high crimes and misdemeanors in

we are often made to wonden how tits
that men of motley records can be
held up now as ideal kings;-not only
great and wise, but even successful IA
vorites in the eyes of Jehovah and
E!ohim. The answer for us is that
they lived in a dark age ofsthe world,
before mankind had established a high

if they will do to set UP as standards,

Editor Democrat:
DR.. Howard Kelly, B. A, LID, used
100000 worth of radium treating the
cancer that killed Congressman Brem-
ner, which reminds us of the value of
life compared to dollars. Just think
what a nan would give for the privf-
lege of being allowed to remain right
here on this earth. When the average
person gets sick the first thing he
does is send for the doctor. Why?
He doesn't want to die. He is not so
anxious to go to heaven as he thought
he was. This reminds us of one Lot
who fed Sodom, (Gen. 49,. Yet Lot
was a righteous man, but fed from an
opportunity to go to heaven. No, Lot
knew that his future life was conferred
in the resurrection from the dead
Geek S7:12). Lot knew nothing Of
the present day theology that teaches
either heaven at death or eternal mis-
cry. He knew that if he remained in
Sodom he would lose his life. So he
fed saying, Thou hast magnifed thy
mercy which thou hast showed unto
me by saving my life; and l cannot
escape to the mountains lest some evil
take me and I die" (Gen. 1919. So
Lot fed to the little city of Zoar just
before God rained fire and birthstone
from Heaven and destroyed Sodom and
Gomorrah. (Gen. 10: 1924 Brother
Lot was a Bible student you see and
knew that a dead man was not alive.
