IN MEMORIUM.

IN loving rem embrancc of my dear
wife, Clevie Robins Stewart, who en-
tered into eternal rest July 20, 1920,
one year ago today. In the cold
grave | saw her lie, oh my grief too
deep to tell; oh, how | miss vou
Clevic, no tongue can ever tell. 7
watched you day and night, and your
dear hands claspcd, until at last,
with broken heart, | saw YOU
breathe your last; and bending over
the open coffin, looking at your white
folded hands which will never, no
never, clasp mine in this world
again. Gazing upon your closed
eyes from which l have so manv
times seen the light of love shine
forth. Bereavements long withheld
descend sometimes as chastizinp
grief upon our nature, to remind us
of oar duty to our Heavenly Father.
and direct our thoughts to that happy
and blessed home where all tears and
sorrow shall be wiped away. There
is healing in the bitter cup God takes
away or removes far from us those
we love so dear, to increase orr
faith and impress on our minds the
uncertainty of life, and to teach us
to look forward to that reunion in
another world, where there will be
no more separation and no more sad
good byes. I have often been told
of a wonderful country, land that
no mortal hath seen, where rivers Of
crystal forever are flowing. Through
fields of perpetual green; the sum-
| mer and sun are forever unclouded.
and never there falleth the night: O.
land where the brightness of flowers
eternal and bright. They say in that
land is a glorious city whose walls
are jasper and gold, with glittering
streets of most wonderful beauty,
and wealth that can never be told.
They say the inhabitants never grow
weary, they never know sorrow or
care; that joy without measure and
peace everlasting are given the
blessed ones there. l read in the
Bible the wonderful story how Jesus
was nailed on the tree and how in
the bitterest agony dying, he opened

FOR MORE HAY IN PIckENS.
County Agent Conducts Interesting
Hay Contest.

Clemson College, July 28.-Pick-
; ems county is making hay while the
sun shines. In 1920 that mountain
county bought from January to
June 1 some 100000 worth of hay.
One farmer bought car of hay from
the West, paying $3.50 for the hav
and $20019 for the freight on it..
"What's the matter with us?" said
County Agent T. A. Bowen, eve can
grow that hay for less than $3.50 per
car and save all the freight besides. :"
The result of the county agents
question put to himself was hay
contest for 1921, for which the Pick.
ems Chamber of Commerce provided
@loo.oo in prizes to promote the
growing of crimson clover and oats
Tor hay. Some SO farmers entered
the contest, but because of drv
weather and poor stands many drop
ped out, leaving a dozen to finish tho
race. Only farmers who had ncvar
grown clover before could enter the
contest, Around 1000 pounds Of
clover seed were bought co-operat-
ivc!y for the contestants.
Inc first prize of $4,000 was won

same land.
Inc second prize, $500, was won
by Leslie Morgan, Pickens, who made
two tons of cured hay per acre; third
prize' $500, by A. NJ. Morris, Pick
ems IL tons of hay with no fertil-
l@er at all; and fourth prize, Sloan
Childrcss, Easley, 2 1-2 tons consist
ing largely OF oats with very little
clover.
The contest has resulted. as
County Agent Bowen hoped. in
bringing many farmers to realize the
economy of growing their own hay,
an" preparations arc being made for
seeding many acres this fall. The
third prize winncr, a. NJ. Morris, has
turned back his prize money TO start
fund for the 1922 contest: and tho
fourth prize winner, Mr.. Childrcss IS
buying enough seed to plant five
acres on his one-horse farm.
The county agent has advised his
farmers that the hay land will make
a crop OF late corn even better than
otherwise, provided the stand of
clover was good, and many OF them
have their acres in corn, which is
dong well. Several farmers and
land owners including A. M. Morris
and County Agent Bowen, are pro-
vldlng each tenant on their farms
with an acre of land rent free to
grow clover and oats, followed by
corn.
