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
ill tll-.it lint nir -llmnl "linonlifiil
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 been in rather poor health
this spring and has had much
sickness in his family. As a
result be has heed unable todol
as much work among the farm !
ers as he would have done
under more favorable circumstance.
lie draws his pay for
the time he nctullv devotes to
the work and not for the time he
is sick or kept at home by sickness
in his family.
This is July Nth and the people
are beginning, as usual, to
mink about laying l>y the crops.
The agricultural writers and
those who have tried it tell us
thol it is nr? lint . to rjujt 'lio
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 ail the feed roots
on the corn and cotton. So then
we suppose that the advice they
would give would he to cultivate
long, often and shallow.

CHURCH NOTES
Methodist Protestant
l?y. Jno. \V. Quick, Pastor
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
vital to our physical well-being.
We must pray to God and bring
down His presence and power.
No church can be a soul-winning
church unless at least a
portion of it has power with
God.
We must have love for souls.
If we do not love men's souls,
no matter how much our words
may indicate such love, we can
not reach them. We must have
love, "haith, 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 I)r.
Langston preached a fine ser
mon Sunday morning and we
are glad to know that they appreciated
his work.
Truly hope it will not he
many more days before we can
get out and see our people in
their homes. If you need our
service we will 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.
Asiicrult, ol 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.
lirethern let us begin now
praying for a great spiritual
awakening in our town and
community, that christians may
be made stronger in the faith,
backsliders healed, indifferences
removed, fellowship restored,
vpul the unsaved brought into
/lie Kingdom.
Next Sunday, Pageland 11
a. in., 8:30 p. m.
Revival services conducted by
Rev. J. L. McManaway, Home
Hoard Lvangelist, will begin
fifth Sunday in August.
Nearly 37 Million Acres In
Cotton
Washington, July 1.?A total
area of 3(>,%0,000 acres of cotton
is in cultivation in the United
States, according to the preliminary
/?f ll"> i
J */ 111 V \1V |'?ll IIIIUII I |
of agriculture announced today.
This compares with 37,458,000
acres, the revised estimate of
acreage in cultivation a year
ago, 37,080,0? ><> acres picked last
year, 31,283,000 in 1012 and 36,045,000
acres in 1011.
The condition of the growing
crop on June 25 was 70.6 per
cent of a normal, as compared
with 74.3 per cent on May 25,
this year, 81.8 per con;., on June
25 last year, and 80.7 per cent the
ten-year average on June 25.
1 lie month began with one of
the severest droughts ever
known in the eastern portions of
the cotton helt. It greatly retarded
growth of early planted cotton
and delayed the germination
of late planted. In the western
portions of the helt the firsti
week of the month was excess
ively wet. This prevented anfl
improvement in the plants ana
made cultivation and planting
difficult. j
Better conditions prevailfl
during the second week, > flH
plant making good progress vy
the eastern and central
tions of the belt, while the wfl
tern portion had the most favo?|
able weather for several weeks.
During the third week local
showers in the central and eastern
portions of the belt greatl#
improved the outlook and earl4
planted cotton generally wal
reported in good condition biJ
latt'T nlnnt(>(l wire hnrkwnnl nnd
needed rain. Highly favorabl^
weather continued in the western
part of ihe belt.
The final week of the month
was reported as the most favorable
thus far this season, good
rains having fallen over much
of the central and eastern portions
and the plant having made
excellent growth. Over the
western portions warmth, occasional
showers, permitted rapid
growth and the outlook greatly
improved. Holl weevil were
reported as numerous in Louisiana,
Mississippi and Alabama.
