The worlds record foY corn raising
belongs, if our memory serves us right
to alter l.. Dcenson, an Alabama boy,
yet IN his early teens. Last year this
boy raised 232 bushels of corn on n
single acre of land, which is the larg-
est yield per acre yet recorded. This
remarkable record was made by an
ordinary boy on ordinary land. He
became interested in corn raising and
studied the matter of the kind and
proper use of fertilizers and proper
cultivation. AS Il result of putting
his knowledge to practical use he rails
ed 232 bushels of corn on one acre of
land, thereby winning the champions
ship of the world. What Walter l..
Deenson has done serves to show what
common everyday, out and out boy
can do if he is given the chance. There
are thousands of ambitious boys ON
the rich farms of this state. many in
this county, who never know what it is
to be encouraged to take an interest in
agricultural or stock raising. If
these boys were given small plot of
ground and some seed-corn for exam
ple-to plant and cultivate, a circus
would not be able to turn their
thoughts very far from the enchanted
spot where wonderful harvest will
be theirs to reap. A boy may not be
ableto raise 232 bushels of corn on an
acre of his fathers land, but he can
do well enough to make his efforts
worth while. What boy in this county
is going after the worlds record next
year?

The P&Sfanan School

- About SIX years ago the Buchanan
Baptist Mission School was cstab-
nshed and opened its doors for the re-
ception of pupils, with Mrs. j. W.
Reams and Miss Yeats in charge.
during this first year there were 70
pupils enrolled. The next wear Pro-
lessor X. A. Henderson and wife, and
MISS Attic Garlick and Miss Margaret
r.. Niche took charge and are now
successfully conducting the school.
The enrolment last year was 1875 pu-
pils, gathered from the surroudinp
territory. The school is supported bv
the Baptist people of the State. Pun
lis are required to pay what they can

degenerate the homes from which

Henderson and his helpers are doing
heroic, history-making work. If the
BAPTIST people of the State and all
the people of Buchanan, do not stand
by this school they are not only blind
as bats to their own interests, but are
crImnaily indifferent and selfish. This
