BIG REVIVAL MEETING
AT FIG CLOSED SUNDAY

The revival meeting at the Fig
Tabernacle, which closed last
Sunday night, was the best at
tended and the most successful
one ever held.
Practically every service was
attended by hundreds of people
and there were a large number
of conversions. Rev w. T. Whit
tington, pastor of the West JEFF
ferson Baptist church, did most
of the preaching end delivered
many inspiring sermons.
The singing, which was an out
standing feature of the meeting
contributed much to its success,
and was directed by MIR. Lam
bert, of West Virginia.

are few suggestions from State
College specialists for the month
of September.
Pastures
John Arey, State Colleges
Well-knoWn extension dairyman,
adds his usual bit for pastures.
September is the ideal month to
plant pastures in North Carolina,
because the seedlings made now
will have "a good start during the
fall and winter. This will enable
them better to withstand the
drOuthS of summer, which is not
always true of pastures planted in
the spring. And here's how to put
in pastures: Seed on good land;
thoroughly pulverize the seed
bed to a depth of three inches;
fertilize with 800 to 400 pounds
per acre of a high grade fertiliz-
er mixture; use grasses and le-
gumes suited to local conditions
because other kinds may fail; and
plant temporary grazing crops of
the small grains mixed with
crimson clover.

ed the Judge. "He was by here a
month or SO ago, looking for
work. That's all l know about
him. Who is he?"
Il don't know much about him
myself. I met up with him not
long ago; he told me his name
was Jesse Conroy and we sort of
figured cut we were relations. :"
what were you two getting
ready to fight about?"
Barry shut his eyes and lay
still moment Without opening
them he said, my head hurts,
Judge; it's hard thinking
straight"
The Judge nodded understand
ingly.

FOURTH INSTALLMENT
Synopsis

Barry Haverill leaves his Texas
home to see the country, meets
a man who has Just been shot
who turns out to be a cousin OF
his, Jesse COnrOy. Barry helps to
take care of his wounds and Jesse
gives Barry his gun, a very I'M
usual one. When they part Bar
ry leaves for home and comes
across the murdered body of his
brother Robert. Barry starts
searching fer the murderer and
gees into the mountains to find
gold to use for continuing his
search. He finds a good spot, gets
gold and goes to Tylersville to
get money for it. There he meets
Judge Blue and his daughter Luz
cy, who help him to get $3.50 for
his gold. Judge Blue also tells
him that the gun Jesse gave him
is the gun of a murderer known
as the Laredo Kid. The Judge in
vites Barry up to visit him and
there Barry discovers the horse
and saddle which was stolen
from his brother Robert when he
was killed. He finds out that it
belongs to a cowboy who will
return that night. He waits out
side the stable and finally a rid
er comes up who turns out to be
Jesse COnrOy.

Fairs

In just . few days, county and
community fairs will be opening
in all sections of the State. Ma
turally, farm people will have
wealth of material to display in
competing for prizes and pre-
miums. One of the most attrac-
tive departments at most fairs is
that turned over to horticultural
products. H. r. NisWonger, ex-
tension hortculturist, makes this
very practical suggestion: Pre-
pare carefully your fruits and
vegetables for exhibit. Fruit to
be shown should be picked and
handled with extreme care, keep
ing in mind the fact that the best
fruit in respect to color and uni
formity is found at the top of the
tree. Don't pick the largest
fruits but select those typical of
the variety. Wrap each specimen
in paper and pack snugly. Vege-
tables for exhibit should be free
from blemishes, clean, and fully
matured.
Poultry
Roy Dearstyne, head Of the
State College Poultry Depart
ment, believes September an in
teresting month for poultrymen.
Not only that, but it's busy one.
Soon pullets will be coming into
production. This means plenty of
work for the poultryman. Before
these birds are brought in, the
J laying house should have a tho
rough cleaning and disinfecting.
Then, too, sub-normal birds
should be culled from the flock
at this time. Don't change from
teresting month for poultrymen
growing mash to laying mash un-
til the pullets are we'll in produc-
ton. Holding them on growing
mash until Is percent production
is reached is not bad plan
Other suggestions which Profes.
sor Dearstyne offers are: Plan
grazing crops to reduce the feec
bill; secure good breeding males
practice rigid sanitation; keep re-
cords; and finally, don't compro
mise on balanced feeding.
Swine
Many fall pigs are farrowed If
September, so H. w. Taylor, eX.
tension swine specialist, advise!
growers to put the brood sow be.
fore she farrows in a field which
has been cultivated since hogs
ranged on it. Never let the pigs
go to old hog lots or pens. Keer
them on clean land until they
weigh at least 100 pounds.

alert he added, But Judge, he'll
be lookin' up his folks, across to
yore new ranch; an he'll be tel
lin the crowd all he knows"
He won't be seeing anybody
but me for a WHILE" said the
Judge. I'm keeping him shut
away. In the morning, if he's
'feeling like travelling. I'll put him
on a horse, tell him we're head

over to you And you'll be over at

Jesse laughed tauntingly.
There's one more thing, Judge"
he said. Il got a good look at the
girl the other day. When l hand
yuh back what's youre'n, yuh're
goin' to hand me the girl along
with the res O my payI got a
hankerin'-Judge, I'd marry her
event."
For a while it was very still
there at the stable. After while
the Judge drew long breath. He
said in a voice which was not
quite so steady: you're getting a
swell-head, Laredo. It's a disease
that's sometimes fatal. Better
slow down."
But the Laredo Kid, reckless
and arrogant young devil, mock
ed him draWingly.
Better be on your way, Lare-
do. And if you're not just trying
to be funny-Marry her? Well,
we'll Sc later. Tomorrow evening
early I'll be at Encina Canon, and
young Haveril will be with me.
Well talk. And one thing more:
better get rid of that horse and
saddle tonight
I'm on my way in two
shakes" returned the other.
Drag your man off and shut the
door SOS l can have a light. Meb-
be yuh'd better shine a light on
him now to make shore whether
he amt playin' possum."

adios."
Barry regained consciousness
lying fully dressed on the bed
which earlier he had been ad-
verse tc missing. There was a
cold wet towel on his head and
the Judge stood over him.
We'll, young Haverll,' he SAID.

confused.

Jesse COnrOy.
Barry didn't say anything. Lu-
CIV was right. That was Tex Hum
phreys' pride among his saddle
horses. That was the horse which,
only a few days ago, had carried
Robert Haveril to his death.
The Judge had a scrap OF pa
per in his hand. He waved it to-
ward Barry, saying as he came
on: I'm sorry you won't be able
to see your sister today, young
Haveril. There was note on my
study table, sent over by Zachary
Blount: he went to Pride's Valley
this morning on bit of business
for me. something that looked
funny about the deed to a new
ranch 1 just bought. He took his
wife along. But they'll be back
tomorrow or next day"
Barry was looking at the horse
again.
you're looking at some high
class horse flesh there, Haverll,
said the Judge.
Barry nodded. He wanted to
ask about that high-headed
black, but hesitated. Blind in
stinct. subtle intuition-he didn't
know what-made him move as
cautiously as all his true kim
dred. forest wild things moved.
Lucy asked who's the -strang-
err, Daddy, that owns that one?
He's got the most gorgeous sad
die l ever saw"
The Judge looked the horses
over. That black?" he said. "Oh,
yes. 1t belongs to a young cow
bow who rode in late last night
He had to 60 on and asked to
leave his horse here until he
came back. Where'd you see his
saddle?" he asked.
ANDREW was fixing the clnch.
It's a fancy Mexican saddle, and
Andrew gave all the silver work
polish; it hurts your eyes to
look at it
Lets 60 to the house" SAID
the Judge. Its most supper
time"
But if was not supper time, ana
thew loafed comfortably on the
shady front porch looking down
over Tylersville.
How far is it out to the ranch
where my folks are?" Barry ask
ed without withdrawing his eX-
pressionless gaze from the melt
ing distances. -,
Its inside thirty miles" SAID
the Judge. THAT little span OF
mine will do it in less than three
hours. We start right after sup
per-" e
But they didn't go right after
supper. nor did they go at all.
The three were dining at long
table that would have seated a
score when a man rode up from
Tvlersville for word with Judge
Blue. The Judge went out to him,
and returned almost immediate
w. 1--we got to see a man IN
town." he said. Go ahead with
supper; I'll finish when l get
back. l ought to be with you IN
half a nhour."
After an hour Of waiting Bar
nv was more the shifting bear
than ever. Lucy had conducted
him to a pleasant room where
there were books and piano and
sofa and easy chairs, and at first
had chartered like a maybe. She
had sung for him little, too, and
at first he had listened enrapt
and had looked at her admirlng-
ly, thinking her the daintest and
sweetest and cleverest little
thing in the world.
When the Judges voice said,
Sorry I'm so late" both of them
jumped, for they had not heard
him come in. He tossed his hat
to the piano top and looked at
his watch. we'll go first thing
in the morning. All right, young
Haveril?"
