CROP ROTATION FOR

ROTATION AS ESSENTIAL IN
GROWING SWEET POTATOES
AS IN ANY OTHER CROP.
HAS MANY ADVANTAGES
Aids in Preventing Losses From, d.

Weevil.

Crop rotation is as essential in grow
ing sweet potatoes as in growing any
other farm crop, according to NJ. Hull,
assistant horticulturist, Extension d.
vision, Louisiana State University. In
creased production, soil improvement
and reduction Of injury from insects
and diseases are chief among the ben
efits derived from this practice, he
says.
A rotation in which sweet potatoes
are grown on the land once IN three
years, combined with seed selection
and disinfection, is not only effective
in preventing loss from stem.rot, black.
rot, and other diseases, but also IN
controlling the sweet potato wscyil.

So long as the evil fruit of the race

the South the Chicago Tribune has
complacently and continuously taught
the doctrine of race hate from the
premise that the Southern whites
were the workers of iniquity and per-
secutOrs of the innocent. Never has
1t recognized them as the victims of
a cruel fate and hard, unnatural con-
ditions. Never has 1t taught the duty
and the policy Of race Cancellation and
harmonious commingling Of the two
different races and Of the necessity of
provision for the inexorable demand
of the color line. Always the negroes

The Perfect LaxatlVe

We presume there never was a
newspaper in any locality that gave
all the local happenings. 1t is often
that someone comes or goes that the
reporter does not see. 1t happens
that the family is missed several
times. They get the impression that
the editor does not care to mention
them. This is a mistake. In most
country towns the local work is the
hardest work connected with a news
paper. A man may be good editorl-
al writer, but fiat failure in the To-
cal work, and vice versa. Editorial
material is obtained by study, by
reading newspapers, sometimes by
using scissors. Personal and local
happenings can't be read and clipped
from other papers, not by a jugful::
1t takes physical as well as mental
exertion to get out four or six col
umns of local news in town OF this
size. Most people take local paper
to get the local happenings. Don't be
afraid to tell the editor or reporter
that YOU have friends visiting you.
There are lots of people who are in
terested in your friends. You owe 1t
as a duty to them to let your frlenas
know of their doings. Perhaps you
think the paper shows partially,
but just see if the paper doesn't
treat you right if you give it a chance

Jesus of Nazareth was dead, and
his bruised body had been laid in the
new-cut tomb Of Joseph Of Arinla-
thea. Joseph was rich man who be-
lieved in Jesus; when the word came
Christ was dead, Joseph had gone to
Pilote, the Roman judge, who had
from the hill called Golgotha that
found no fault in this just man, and
begged Christ's body. He had wrap.
ped the body in fresh linen and laid
it in a new sepulcher, where no
mans body had ever been. And a
great stone was rolled in front of the
entrance of the sepulcher, and it was
sealed.
All was over, the disciples told
each other; their master was dead,
and the dream ended. There was
black despair among these humble,
loving followers.
New, early in the morning of the
first day of the Jewish week, two
days after the crucifxion, Mary Mag
dalene, and Mary, mother of James;
went to the sepulcher, taking with
them spices and ointments bought
out of their scanty savings, where
with to anoint the body of Jesus. 1t
was the last service they might do
him. And as they went along they
wondered how they would roll back
the heavy stone from the door of the
sepulcher, that they might enter in.
But when they were come to the
sepulcher, behold, the stone was roll
ed away and, entering, they found
the body of Jesus was not there; the
linen clothes lay there wherein JOS
eph had wrapped his Lord, and the
linen cloth that had been bound
around his head, folded and laid
aside. And they began to weep. Then
they saw two men, with garments of
light, sitting one at the foot and the
other at the head, where the body
of Jesus had been, and the men said:
"Why seek We the living among
the dead? He is not here, but is ris-
en-, as he said"
And, looking on those bright,
grave faces, the women knew that
they beheld two angels. Then they
ran into the city and told the disci-
pies, and Peter and John returned
with them, and John outran Peter
and came first to the spulcher, and,
STOPPING down, he saw in very truth
That the tomb was empty. And
Peter went into the sepulcher and
saw the linen clothes lying there and
the other disciple went in also, and
they maveled, not yet being sure
what these things meant. For they
were simple men.
And they went away again into
the city. But Mary Magdalene stood
without at the sepulcher and wept.
And as she was going away, bearing
the gifts she had not been able to
leave him, she saw man, whom
she supposed to be the gardener.
He said:
Woman, why weepest thou?
Mary said to him:
"Sir, if thou have borne him hence,
tell me where thou hast laid him,
and l will take him away
He made answer:
Mary.
And at that word she looked into
his face, and it was Christ the Lord.
Master" she cried.
Jesus, with a smile of infinite
compassion, said to her:
"Touch me not, for l am not yet
ascended to my Father; but go to
my brethren and say to them | as
cend unto my Father, and your
Father; and to my God, and your
God"
Then Mary Magdalene returned
into the city, and her sorrow was
turned into gladness, and she told
the diciples how she had seen the
risen Lord.
