Resolutions of Respect.

Whereas, almighty God, in his in
finite wisdom, has seen fit to take
from us our beloved President, Hugh
McCutchen; and whereas, our close
association with him as friend and
President of this, the Wee Nee Bank,
makes it supremely proper and befit-
ting that we make known our very
high appreciation of his services;
therefore,
Be it now resolved, that the stock
holders and friends of this bank keen
ly recognize that his removal means
very distinct loss to this organiza-
ton as well as to the town and COM
munity;
Be it resolved further, that his
strong character, his splendid mind,
his excellent business skill, and his
never-failing interest and energy in
the discharge of his duties be held la
grateful remembrance;
Be it resolved further, that by this
means we express our very deep SYM
pathy for the bereaved relatives OF
the deceased, trusting that all who
knew him, both friends and relatives
NAV bow in submissive resignation to

Pet Canary Gets Burial.

The scriptural assurance that SPAR
rows shall not fall unnoticed was CIV
en- tangible application to a pet can
ary bird a few days ago at Newark,
N. ]. Jimmie, the little songster,
choaked to death on a watermelon
seed, and so grief-stricken was his
owner, Emidio Russomanno, 65-year
old cobbler, that friends contributed
5000 for a funeral, including hearse,
five mourners' coaches and fifteen
piece band.
"He sang, ah, so sweet-like Car
uso," sobbed the cobbler as the little
plush lined casket, six by twelve
inches, was lowered into the grave,
He plans to erect monument later.

Don't Cultivate Cotton Too Deep.

A few days ago | was in field OF
cotton, the owner Of which was culti-
waiting in way, in my opinion, that
was doing more harna than good. He
was using a rather large and long SOL
id sweep, getting up close to the cot
ton, and every time he came to the
end of the row he had to stop to take
the cotton roots off the plow.
l think it is highly important to
keep dust blanket in the cotton field
at this season of the year, but if the
cotton roots have to be badly broken
up to get this dust mulch, then |
prefer to 60 wr,nout it. AS matter
of fact, the dust mulch can be main
tanned and grass and weeds KEPT
down without greatly disturbing the
feed roots of the growing crop. Where
heel sweeps are used, and on sandy
loam land these are excellent for cul-
tivating cotton, the scooter or shovel
plow ahead Of the heel sweep should
be short and blunt, and the heel sweep
should skim along just under the sur
face.
The manner in which late cultiva-
ton of cotton is done is of great i'm
portance, and every farmer should
give it much thought. If cotton is to
be kept green and growing and is to
continue to put on fruit, and hold it,
late civilizations must not be too deep.

clearance, ee1l inches, makes it ideal
for cultiyating, and it is equally well
fitted for planting and harvesting. In
addition, it has ample power for belt
work, pulling a 24-inch grain separa-
tor or 16-inch ensilage cutter with
ease.
There is work on the farm every
day in the year for the Moline Uni
versal Tractor. 1t will do every field
operation that can be done with
horses and do. it better, faster, and
cheaper. This is why the Moline
Universal really replaces horses, and,
at the same time, by enabling one
man to do much more work than
ever before possible, solves the farm
help probleni.
The detailed construction of the
new Moline-Universal, Model D, is
the best it is possible to manufacture.
Perfected 4-cylinder overhead-valve
engine, electric starting and lighting
system, complete enclosure of all
working parts, and fifteen Hyatt roll
er bearings, are few of the main
features.
We tnofte you to examine this mo-
chine at your earliest opportunity.
