Obituary.

Died-At the home of her sister,
Mrs. F. A. Sinclair, 1884 Gamble ST.,
st. Louis, Mo-, on January 81, 1920,
Mrs. Maude McCabe, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. B. A. Sloan of Bismarck,
wife of Jesse McCabe, Graniteville,
Mo. After brief illness of only a
few days the quiet messenger of
death came to her relief who only
band home.
How strange to us that those so
young should be called away, but His
ways are, indeed, mysterious and
past finding out. Some time, some
where we'll understand. Not now,
but in better land. SIN the midst
of life we are also in DEATH" This
messenger claims not only the totter-
ing pilgrim from the Shady Slopes OF
time, nor the tiny babe from it's
mothers bosom, but the young and
promising from the busy cares, at the
MONDAY of life. How uncertain in
deed is life and how sure is death.
| She leaves a father, mother, 3 sis
ters and one brother to mourn her
departure besides baby boy of only
years and months, left to battle
this unfriendly world without either a
fathers tender counsel or mothers
loving care. But our Heavenly
Father who careth for the lambs of
his fold promises to be a father to
the fatherless and ever lend listen
ing ear to the cries of the orphans
wilLno doubt SO guard and inspire
this oung life that it will be shin
ing light and living glory to Himself
and those gone before. "To live in
hearts we leave behind is not to de-"
Since God in His infinite wisdom
has seen fit to call from US our be-
loved sister and thereby sever ten
der ties which have for so long made
US an unbroken family here on earth,
let us bow in humble submission to
the will of Him who taught US to
pray 'tThy will be done.n "The Lord
giveth and the Lord hath taken away,
Blessed be the name of the Lord"
Behind this dark cloud which o'er !.
shadows MS we behold His smiling
face and hear the same consoling
words spoken to Martha of old, 81 am
the resurrection and the life. He hat
believeth In me, though he were dead,
yet shall he live.n ssIf thou woul DIST
believe thou shalt see the glory Of
God.n
Then be it ours to mediate in th ese
dark shades OF bereavement and in
the beautiful order of thy works
learn to conform the order of ouI
lives.

To Capture Melon Markets.

Jefferson City, Mo-, March 16.-
Southeast Missouri watermelon grow
ers are already making plans for the
capture OF the August and September
melon trade Of the country.
If plans which have been set on
foot mature, all melons from Missouri
producing sections will be carefully
stacked and graded this coming sea-
son and will move under rigid in
spection. 1t is felt by growers gener :
ally, that this action is necessary for
the preservation Of the industry IN
Southeast Missouri.
Outside buyers haye been inducing
growers, especially during the past
few years, to load green and othei
inferior melons with the result that
considerable discredit has beer
brought home to even those growers
who have loaded mature melons
while all credit for the loading ol
green, necked, and small melons i
Iron County register. [volume] (Ironton, Iron County, Mo.) 1867-1965, 1920-03-18

not due to the efforts of buyers, it is
known that growers have in many
instances been induced to load melons
which have been purchased in the
patch, before these melons have be-
come fully ripe. The accumulated
effect of this practice, as well as of
the dishonest loading, as practiced by
at least some few growers, has been
to throw the Southeast Missouri melon
into bad repute.
Local shipping organizations are
being formed at each loading point in
the Southeast Missouri territory and
a uniformsystem of grading, stacking,
and inspection will be inaugurated.
It is also quite probable that the out
put from all of these associations may
be sold through single distributing
agency, the growers generally favor
ing the appointment. of a single sales
manager who shall be directly re-
sponsible.
