OBITUARY


 angel again visited our commun- ity and took from us our beloved aged friend, Mrs. Mary Rachel Rhodes. better known as Aunt Mary" She was born in New ton County, Georgia, in '42, came ] to Gale, Arkansas in AS, where she lived to the age of 73. She was the mother of eleven child ren, four have gone before her. 'even are left behind, who with ! number of grandchildren and yreat- grand children must suffer his loss till heaven is made their nome, for we are sure she IS ther" enjoying the music the angels make, and though it is so sweet we would gladly strain our ears to catch one note from their harps or hear one song of our fathers love, yet she can sing one equally as sweet-'pve been redeemed"
 If she so much enjoyed sing ing it here that she would re- oice, how will it be now as she sings it in.the presence of her re- deemer? We expect to soon join aer in that sweet song.
 Before she became too weak to talk she told them not to weep out to rejoice, and was happy as long as she could talk. The night before she died the room wss filled with. :. friends, children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and one brother, ZEN. Daniel of Prescott. At whosel'request as it had been hers, we sang and prayed sing ing old --primitive hymns which she had once enjoyed hearing and we were made Ito rejoice in a savior's love while tears flowed | freely and the voices trembled. Yet, the music seemed to float out on the still night air.
 While we sang, There are Angels lowering round and They will carry the atidings home" Pm sure they were near us and as we could almost see them. floating above us we could | feel ..thesjoy pouring into our souls and we think sinners must l felt solemn, and%desire to live so that the same might be said of them as has been said of this mother.
 Bro. J. D. EIkins of Dlevins 1 spoke words of comfort followed | by a short talk by Bro. Meadows | after which the black box con taining the cold body of Aunt | was borne by loving hands to it's last low resting place in Friend ship grave yard where she will lie undisturbed till Jesus says, Come forth"
 We will say to those who were not permitted to see her in her last hours, look up and rejoice that she has crossed the dark riv- CT and swept through the pearly gates where you too will soon be if you live true to God.
 For though we miss her and
 are lonely,
 She is happier. far than we,
 With the ones who've long
 been waiting
 For her just across the sea.
 They have met 10 part, no never,
 In the presence of their king.
 Where no pain, no sin, no
 sorrow
 Ever shall be known again.
 Why should we then weep for
 mother,
 For the sister once so true.
 For she longed to be with
 Jesus,
 The one of all who had been
 most true.
 Let us then look up and praise
 him
 For his matchless love and
 grace,
 Live to honor and obey him

TOM DAVIS LEFT HOME

On the 18th day of January, Tom Davis left his home near Mt. Moriah, Nevada County, to come to Prescott on business. He was seen in Prescott that day and the next morning. but has not been heard of. since. He was farmer and leaves a wife and four children. His neigh bors say that as far as they were able to see his home life was happy. They can advance no theory for his sudden leaving.

1t Is proverbial that 1.-The darkest
hour precedes the dawn" w. F. Den
ming. the English authority on me-
teors, has recently called attention to
the literal accuracy of this proverb. as
established by his own observations
on thousands Of nights. He says:
Before dawn greater darkness
seems to drop down like mantle upon
the immediate surroundings. Objects
which We're plainly observable during
the previous hours of the night are
blotted out, and nervous feeling IL
sometimes induced by the dense opac-
ity of the air"
He claims to have noticed this
phenomenon when the subject was far
from his thoughts, so that it could not
have been purely subjective. He Is
unable to state the exact interval be-
fore sunrise when the remarkable dark
ness comes on nor whether 1t is COM
mon to each season and sky conditions.

ness toward the sick and wounded
against which Wellington struggled in
the peninsula. One evening at dinner
he heard that at a post several miles
away large number of sick soldiers
were lying in the open, exposed to the
weather He rode promptly to the
place, found the sick in the plight de-
scribed, while the healthy officers were
in comfortable houses, and was told
by the commanding officer that there
was no accommodation for the sick.
He instantly arranged In detail for the
billeting of the sick In those houses,
but suspecting what might follow,
paid a surprise visit the next night
and found that the invalids had again
been turned out into the open. Well
ington Immediately reinstated them,
arrested the officers and had them
tried and dismissed for disobedience.

noticed that she was giving more milk
than she had been for long time. The
feed was the same. In fact, everything
else about the care and treatment was
as it had been except the way the
milking was done.
What was the difference In the way
these two men did their work ut milk
ing time? cannot say so well for the
first mans way, but | watched the
second mans methods after we saw
what a change had come over the COW
through his better handling, and here
are some of the points l gained: The
second man was quiet about his work.
He often said that be would rather be
all alone In stable with the cows
when he was milking than to have a
number Of hands there, some speaking
loud, some whistling or doing some
thing else to distract the attention of
the cows. In more ways than one
quiet is great help to good milking.
And then this man took pains with
his finger nails. Now, don't laugh al
this, for 1t Is a matter of more impor.
lance than we sometimes believe 1t to
be. The teats Of cow are sensitive,
some more So than others, and If the
nails Of the mixer are all the time
digging sharply into them the cow will
feel nervous and uncomfortable, with
the result that the milk yield will be
affected.
Then, too, the second mixer took
great pains in the way he pressed his
fingers against the cows teats. To,
ward the last Of the milking also he
was very careful to get the last drop
the cow had in her udder. If all milk.
ers were as careful at this point as
they should be it would bring thou
sands Of dollars more into the pockets
of the farmers of this country every
year.

DAIRY cow FEEDING.
Weighing Both Feed and Milk Neces.
sary For Best Results.


sary For Best Results.
Successful COW feeding depends upon
resting the cow six or eight weeks
prior to freshening, feeding her well
during that time that she may freshen
In strong, vigorous, feshy condition
giving birth to a strong, rugged calf
says Kimbalrs Dairy Farmer. After
freshening and when the COW has
recovered from the weakening effects
Of parturition she can be started on a
ration Of five pounds Of light food,
such as a mixture of ground oats,
bran, oilmeal with some cornmeal
Every alternate day her ration should
be raised one-half pound. This process
should continue for thirty days or un.
til the cow has reached the climax of
her production.
A large variety Of food should be
used for efficiency and economy. Silage
and clover hay should form the basis
of the ration and be supplemented will
a variety of concentrated foods In
abundance according to the demands
of the individual COW as evidenced by
the milk yield. Weighing the feed and
weighing the milk will make 1t profit
able to feed grain. No other method
will.
