What about a watermelon?
It seems to us they are mighty
blamed slow in coming.
We don't give a rap how
many men run for office. The
more the merrier, so long as
the three bucks come promptly.
We would hate to have to
all that hot air about "beautiful
Chesterfield" we see in the
Advertiser.
The announcements are coming
right rapidly now, but there
were not enough for us to make
the trip to Chick Springs this
week to be with the other fellows.
Mr. W. J. Tiller, the demonstration
agent for this county,
has heen in rather poor health
this spring and has had much
sickness in his family. As n
result he has heed unable to do
as much work among the farmers
as he would have done
under more favorable circumstance.
lie draws his pay for
the time he actully devotes to
the work and not for the time he
is sick or kept at home by sickness
in his family.

think about laying by the crops.
The agricultural writers and
those who have tried it tell us
thot it is nr? time, to rjwit ?bp
crops- They say that August 1st
is early enough to quit, but that
it is best to cultivate very shallow.
It is probably better to
quit a little early than to plow
up and destroy all the feed roots
on the corn and cotton. .So then
we suppose that the advice they
would give would be to cultivate
long, often and shallow.

CHURCH NOTES ^
Methodist Protestant
By. J no. W. Quick, Pastor b
Our protracted meeting will ^
begin the second Sunday in August
at 11 o'clock. Set about ^
creating a soul-winning atmosphere.
It is just as necessary to ^
have the right kind of spiritual .
atmosphere as it is to have the ^
right kind of atmosphere to
breath, which we all know is so a
vital to our physical well-being.
We must pray to God and bring s
down His presence and power. ?
No church can be a soul-win- 11
i ? ? . i . r
ning cnurcn unless at least a *
portion of it has power with T
God. . 11
We must have love for souls. E
If we do not love men's souls, v
no matter how much our words e
may indicate such love, we can
not reach them. We must have v
love, "baith, hope, love."
Our appointment for next
Sunday, Pageland at 4:30 p. m.
Baptist
J. M. Sullivan. Pastor.
It was a great joy to be with
our people again after being
kept out of our work for over
two weeks.
Good congregation at White
Plains last Sunday morning and
we enjoved the effort of trying
to preach. Some of those who
heard had the courage to say
that they enjoyed the discourse
very much. We regret very
much that it was impossible for
us to be with these good folks
Saturday afternoon; we have the
confidence in these people to
believe they under the circumstances
excuse us. Regret also
to miss the Center Grove appointment
in the afternoon.
Some have said that Dr.
Langston preached a fine sermon
Sundav morning and we
are glad to know that they appreciated
his work.
Truly hope it will not be
many more days before we can <
get out and see our people in <
their homes. If you need our <
service we wil^l try to do your ,
bidding as best we can under <
the circumstance. <
'It is with pleasure that we are <
to have with us on next Sunday <
morning at Pageland Bro. B. C. <
Aslicraft, of Monroe, N. C., to <
lecture to us on some religious ?
topic of the day.
We are glad to have this good
layman from our sister association
come over and help us in
the Lord's work.
Brethern let us begin now
praying for a great spiritual
awakening in our town anH
community, that christians may
be made stronger in the faith,
backsliders healed, indifferences
removed, fellowship restored,
i\nd the unsaved brought into
/Jic Kingdom.
Next Sunday, Pageland 11
a.m., 8:30 p.m.
Revival services conducted by
Rev. J. E. McManaway, Home
Board Evangelist, will begin
fifth Sunday in August.

Washington, July 1.?A total J
area of 3(>,%0,000 acres of cotton I
is in cultivation in the United '
States, according to the prelimi- I

of agriculture announced today. J
This compares with 37.458.000 !
acres, the revised estimate of

ago, 37,089,0<x> acres picked last
year, 34,283,000 in 1012 and 36,045,000
acres in 1911.
The condition the growing
crop on June 25 was 70.6 per
cent of a normal, as compared
with 74.3 per cent on May 25,

The month began with one of J
the severest droughts ever 2
known in the eastern portions of j
the cotton belt. It greatly retard- I
ed growth of early planted cot- 2
ton and delayed the germination J
of late planted. In the western j
jTQrtions of the belt the first ^
