The Lee Co. Journal chronicles one
ofthtir citizens that has been absent
from Sunday School only four times
in As years and publishes the pic
ture Of that citizen. A genial and
benign countenance that would
really look out OF place anywhere
else may account in measure for
attendance. The secret Of it though
is really that the man was getting
something out of it that did him
good and appealed to him or he
would not have been so regular.
Yet everyone else can get the same
things If they would look for it,
Contrast that with a fellow that we
know that has not been in 46 years

DIVERSITY THIS YEAR MR.
FARMER

And now that cotton is to be no
longer Monarch Of this section, it
seems that we are threatened with
plunging into another one crop
system peanuts. Now peanuts,
like cotton used to be, is a good
crop, but dangerous if trusted in
too great an extent. There are
several crops we can raise and do as
we'll with and we should give lit
tie thought to them. Until we ex-
pertinent a while it is not we'll to
concentrate upon a single crop
but plant two or three money crops
besides our regular staple crops
such as CORN peas, velvet beans,
potatoes etc.
A good plan would be to organ
ize clubs in each shipping point,
each man agreeing to plant speci-
fed amount Of certain thing, Say
ten men club and plant acres of
sweet potatoes, 5 acres Of canta-
loupes, IL acre onions, etc. let a
market be found for these before
they are ready for shipment. This
can easily he done, the quantities
produced to an extent that buyers
will come here and compete, aud if
any one crop is improbable the
others will take care Of the loss.
Let's think over it and act. If we
dont't cooperate we cannot expect
to get the best results.
