to be found in the South, where you
and your children can make a good
comfortable living and enjoy many
privileges.
At Toledo Ohio several years ago,
negro came to me and asked me if
knew where he could find good stand
for butcher shop in North Carolina.
He told me that he was from North
Carolina originally, asked him why
he wanted to leave Toledo and come
back South,-he told me that he found
Toledo agreeable in some ways, but
that he was not permitted to work at
his trade, and that he had to do jobs
of various kinds to make living. Just
think of it, don't believe there is
any locality in the South where a
negro is not permitted to follow his
trade. This man brought his wife to
see me, and she told me that life had
been quite different, with more Difficult
ties than she had expected, and that
she and her husband wanted to get
back to North Carolina. This was a
most respectable couple and after
several years trial, they found the
situation in the North not so easy as
they had been led to believe it would
be. Since that time conditions in the
north have become much more serious
for the negro, on account Of the trade
competition that / have mentioned.

DESTROY THE BOIL WEEVIL

Clemson College, October 25.-
To make the cotton crop more GER
tain and to make the wcevil crop less
certain for 1927 cotton growers
should exert every effort, even if 9th
cr work must be suspended, to give
the right of way to the work Of de-
stroying millions Of weevils just as
soon as possible after picking is fin
ished. This Is accomplished by
cleaning up the old 1920 cotton
fields, including all trash and waste
occurring around the fields. The
wcevis that will enter the cotton
fields next spring are the wecvils
that stay over winter After n crop
is made the late growth of squares,
blooms, and young bolls continue to
be breeding places for the weevils.
In old infested fields it is q common
sight to find from one to six weevils
to each growing plant in the field,

and for the town. Today the coun-
try newspaper publishes first-class
articles on farming 1t contains in
terviews with good farmers on agri-
cultural methods and practices and
plans. 1t publishes news and feature
copy dealing with farming in the
community. IT is a representative
of the country as well as the town."
The farmer has begun to realize
that these are facts and to take
greater interest in the local paper
as medium of service to him in
his business. But there is room for
greater appreciation Of the local pa
per and wider use of it as an advcr-
tising medium for the sale of pro-
duets as well as an important chan
mel of agricultural news and infor-
nation. Perhaps, too, there is room
for keeper realization on the part
of the country newspaper of its op-
portunity and responsibility as a
strong agency for the bctterment of
agriculture.

FARMING AND THE NEWSPAPER

zone Of the most promising fea-
lures Of the country newspaper Of
today is the increased interest that
it takes, and the increased space that
it gives, to farming. The newspa-
per of the small town reflects better
than any other institution the spirit
of its community, and the greater
attention now paid to farming be-
tokens a greater realization that
farming is the primary industry of
this region and, for that matter, Of
the whole country.
"A few years ago it was exception
al to find town newspaper taking
any serious interest in farming. The
newspaper of the old days was of

London, Oct. 24.---The London

on the soils. 1t is quite evident from
the large number of acid or sour soils
in the Coastal Plain section of South
Carolina that not near enough lime is
used by the farmers at the present
time to secure the largest and most
profitable production of crops. | be-
lieve that drainage, lime and cover
crops will greatly increase the produc-
tivity of your soils.
A Blanket of Green
Let us put a blanket of green on
every acre of our cultivated lands this
fall. 1t will keep thousands of dollars
of fertility from being washed away
by the winter rains, and will increase
our production next fall, besides add
ing to the attractivenes sof our coun-
try. Bare desolate looking fields are
a poor advertisement.

The Fullness of Our Day
In closing | bring to you the words
of Henry w. Grady, of Georgia, who
as far back as 1888 gave voice to this
vision.
"Whcn every farmer in the South
shall eat bread from his own fields
and meat from his own pastures and
disturbed by no creditors, and enslav-
shaved by no debt, shall sit amid his
teaming gardens, and orchards, and
vineyards, and dairics, and barn yards
pitching his crops to his own wisdom
and growing them in independence,
making cotton his clean surplus, and
selling it in his own time, and in his
chosen market, and not at masters
bidding-gctting his pay in cash and
not in a receipted mortgage that dis
charges his debt, but does not restore
his frcedom-then shall be breaking
the fullncss of our day"

truth which had raised her. cling
ing to the glimpses of light which
came, even as did Jacob to his
angel visitants, until these pure
impartations from God became q
revelation of His immutable nature
and power, and then she healed
others, even as she herself had
been healed. In other words. the
spiritual teachings found in the
bible which Mrs. Eddy discerned
are the sole and only foundation on
which the Christian Science move
ment stands, spreading its branches
like the tree of Life over all crea-
ton, with its leaves-its teaching
ready at hand for the healing OF
all mankind.
In closing permit me to say this
about Mrs. Eddy. She stands alone
in modern history as the one who
through conservation has been able
to point out and to prove the spir-
itual import of the life and works
| of Jesus the Christ, showing US in
dividually how to use THIN in our
daily walks, how to make of them
for all time living, virile, irresis-
tible, irrefutable, and reversible
power, to the tearing down Of the
strongholds of evil and the estab-
lishment of His kingdom on earth
as it is in heaven. God placed His
command upon her, and she obey
ed it. and lifted the Christ mp from
the earth, out from the matter and
! into Spirit, until we see that all
mer are beginning to be drawn
unto Him, and the Scriptures are
fulfilled.
| Mrs. Eddy wrote Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures"
as it was revealed to her, and
though its teachings may seem
hard of acceptance. because 1t ov-
erturns and destroys ali man made
theories, yet does it bring to US the
very presence of God so clearly, so
vitality, and so usably that as time
sinks into obscurity, and the glories
of the eternal God become ascend
ant in thought, all the earth shall
call her blessed of God. a messen-
ger of peace and holiness to all
mankind.

No Christian Scientist ever urges
anyone to investigate Christian

As a matter of fact. when we
turn to God as Christian Science
teaches us to do. We are under no
obligations to let it be known. Let
us know that God is good and He
has given us goodly heritage and
that we cannot be separated from

ACTION ON AID FOR

Fight Over s9,300,000 Appro-
priation In Deficiency Bill
Delays House Measure.

Action by the House on the West
ern Europe food relief bill, carrying
$50, 900 900. was delayed today be-
cause OF the unexpected fight over
the $1,000 900 appropriation carried
In tho deficiency bill for repairs TO
navy ships and navy yards.
Economists in the House have been
reused by the statement OF Assist
mt Secretary OF the Navy Roosevelt
for a billion dollar -ayear navy, the
.trongest navy In the world, and the
recommendations from naval authori-
les for heavy appropriations to put
this existing navy in wartime shape.
Charges by Admiral Sims. and 9TH
srs, that the navy was not In good
shape at the outbreak OF the war have
awakened a demand TO know what
was done with the huge appropria-
tions made for the navy in the year
Immediately preceding the war.
The deficiency appropriation allow
ed for repairs to naval war ships, now
being pressed as an emergency mat
ter, was objected TO by several mem
bers OF the House when the bill was
presented last week. These members
asked for time to investigate the
House Naval Affairs Committee TO
ascertain the cause OF haste, the pres
ent condition OF the fighting ships,
and the need for immediate repairs.
Naval Affairs Committee members
are justifying their advocacy OF the
urgent appropriation on the ground
that many of the first-class fighting
ships were in constant service during
the war with Germany. guarding
troop and food conveys against sub
marines and in helping to hold the
German fleet in a bottle.
AS they could not be Withdrawn
from this service for necessary re-
pairs, many OF the ships are unfit to
take part in the maneuvers OF the At
