Fairfield Sheep Show
Big Livestock Boost
i 'v r * . i " v.. /? ?? >,Vi . * \ r"
Wlnnsboro, Novx 7. ? "By iar the
best sheep phow we have ever had,"
say many Fairfield county farmers
and others regarding the one-day
annual event, held October 16, when
43 sheep and a good many heed of
calvc3 and pigs were shown, and
great interest was manifested in the
animals themselves and in the pro
gress being made towards better
livestock in Fairfield county.
Of the 43 sheep on exhibition 29
were shown by 4-II ../.top Club mem
bers, according to R. H. Lemmon,
cpuhty farm agent, no it was very
evident that they ve.e better blocked
and better fitted 'h :.n ever before.
Twenty-seven of these sheep were af
terwards shown at the State Faic^
and took creditable winnings.
Matthew Patrick, a 4-H sheep club
member, purchased a fine Southdown
ram that was on exhibition at the
State Fair; and Howard Snelling pur
chased the grand champion South
down ram shown at the Fiar. These
will help to improve still further the
blood of Fairfieltl sheep.
In addition to sheep at the Fair
field sheep show, there were 22 four
H Guernsey calves and 12 four-H
purebred pigs. Eighteen Jiead of
?hese calves and the 12 pigs were'
later sent to the State'' Fair and these
also won prizes, helping to run the
total winnings of Fairfield clubsters
to $276.50.
Many remarks overheimf at the
-iheep show were to the effect that
he sheep, calves and pigs on exhibit
would do much towards creating more
interest in better livestock in Fair
field. "v

IN INTEREST OJF THE KINGDOM
BTKtv. E. B. Jonkin*
? icH ?? ' ? ? r- ?
The Sign of Mlsaiona
In Matthew 24th Chapter and *4$h
verse, our Lord said: "And this gos
pel of the kingdom shall be preachSd
in all the world for a witness unto all
! nations; and then shall the end come''.'
? Thus we see that the preaching of the
gospel to all nations is the sign of the
return t>f our Lord. The early church
was the most evangelistic, zealous,
loyal, devoted, faithful church the
world has ever seen. Missions was at
the very heart of the church, and the
church evangelized the nations around
about and pushed its claims into the
ranks of heathenism. This zeal con
tinued until the middle ages, then the
light of the gospel seemed almost to j
gK> out. ... ? f I
During the middle ages also called
the dark ages, the missionary com
mand of our Lord was forgotten. Men
became, interested in theology at the
expense of the gospel. Prof. Chas.
Hoffding of the University of Copen
hagen said that the thought of the
middle ages was theolog"y". Thus the
priests quibbled over theology, and
neglected to carry the gospel to the
heathen. Then the church became
wealthy, indifferent, unconcerned and
the priesthood became corrupt. The
gospel was hid away in monasteries,
and the heathen were neglected, "ana
it looked as though the gospel would
not be carried to the heathen at all.
But" a change came -
God looked down and saw a man in
a monastery in Germany studyins
New Testament. This man was study
ing and praying. God led him out of
that monestary and one day while in
Rome he- was climbing the marble
stairs in one of the famous churches,
\yhen he had a vision. He arose from
his knees and walked down the steps
and went back to Germany and start
ed the Protestant Reformation thai
changed the face of Europe. The.
the churches took up the task of e
vangelizing the world. Missions a
gain revived, and men went out t
preach the riches of Christ Jesus tr
a dying world.
After the Protestant Reformation
passed, there was a century of evan
gelization on the part of the churci
and again the church lapsed into in
activity. But it was not to remain
thus always. In England there was i
man whose heai't went out to th*.
heathen of Africa. So he laid himseK
upon the altar of God, and went to fai
away Africa. With a company of na
tives he traversed the mountains, fort
ed streams, swam rivers, braved wild
animals, faced deadly serpents, hacked
his way into the very heart of Africa.
He pitched his tent, and there undei
the star light tropical sky, he went
to his cot, and knelt to study his Bible.
He instructed his servant to wait foi
him, so the servant waited ? an hour
Westminister Abbey in London. Liv
two hours, and then as ne did not com
out? the servant went into his tent
and there he found the missionary
kneeling by his cot, with his Bibh
open before him, and his he?yJ oft hi
Bible ? dead. Faithful servants wrap
ped his brdy in windinn sheets, anc
carried it ba^k 'to the sea coast 500
miles awpy. There it ^as placed or
a ship ai d carried to England. The
writer h;is stood at the tomb of this
great missionary, I>avi(J Livingston in
ingstcn did more than any man of hif
day to arouse the church to the great
need of sending the gospel to the endV
of the earth.
Again the interest, of the church
in missions waned. But again God
brought forth a man to arouse thf
church to its opportunity and duty in
sending the gospel to the heathen
There was a shoemaker in England
who cobbled shoes. On the wall o*
his shop he had a map of the world
and each flay he would study that
map. He pvot a vision of the heathen
world dying without Christ. Later a
r. great church convention he made n
^ lea for the heathen of India but hip)
'vordfi fell on indifferent hearers, and
nothing was done. But ho would not
be set aside, so he laid himself on the
altnr of the Lord and went forth to
carry the gospel to India. There he
labored long and haVd, but fought
mightily- for the Lord, and the King
' om. The fruits of his labors aro in
India today.
In America there was a l^ck of in
ter*. at in missions. So (io<i laid it on
the heart of Adrian Judaon and he
went to Burma and there preached for
seven years without a amnio cojlvert.
He translated the Biblo into the native
language. But he was thrown toto
prison, by a native king aa he waa ac
cused of assisting the Britiah in the
j political achemea to get power in the |
countrj. Aa an American he waa not
interested in the Britiah political plan
for gaining a hold in that country.
Here in priaon he Buffered greatly for
his faith and hla Ix>rd. Later he waa
released and broken in health from
the cruelties and exposure of prison.
He started back to America to re
mm whll? on his way. and w?
buried at sea in the Indian 0<Wn. The
news of his sufefring and death, a
rouaed the churches to the great need
of missions. Luther Rice came upftfid
| down the country raising money for
, missions among the churches of that
' day. He visited churches from New
Enfiand to Florida seeking to arouse
'God's people io the great need and
opportunity of seeding the gospel to
the heathen lands.
So far the gospel has been preached
in nearly all nations of the world.The
little nation of Tibet, west of China
has been closed for centuries to all out
side influences and people. Col
Youngblood a British officer some
years ago took a company of soldiers
and marched into the heart of Tibet.
Now that country is open to the gos
| pel. Thus the gospel is being preach- '
led to all nations as a witness. Jesus
said when the gospel had been preach
ed in all the world as a witness to all
nations, then-the end would come.

Cotton Pricos Adtanto '
I ? ? \ -.
| It is too good to be true? or too bad,
whichever way you look at it.
At any rate, it just looks improb
able that this^year's cotton yield in
every last one of sixteen states grow
ing cotton \should be higher than the
10-year average, as was indicated by^
the August 1 United States Depart
ment of Agriculture cotton report.
Here are the figures showing the ten
year average yield per acre in each
of these states and the "indicated 1931
yield" as shown in the government
otton crop report: ?
State 10-yr. av. 1931
Virgnia 246 276
N. Carolina ...247 256
S. Carolina 109 210
Georgia 136 160
Florida . -113 150
Missouri 254 340
Tennessee 184 205
Alabama 151 ISO
Mississippi __182 215
Louisiana 160. 220
Texas . . . 132 156
Oklahoma 146 180
Arkansas i_...169 215
?New Mexico (x) 293 375
Arizona ...29C 355
California 30G 460
All other (x) 192 221
. It will be seen that in every singlo 'v
[state from Carolina to California in
clusive, the prediction is for yields
J well in excess of the ten-year average
of that state. We are not saying itt
all that this was not "indicated" by
the condition of the crop of Aupust 1.
We are saying, however, that is is
improbale that so abnormal a situ
ation will continue till the crop is
harvested. '
I Meanwhile we advise growers not
to bo stampeded into selling cotton
at present ridiculous prices. Cotton
is not a perishable crop. It can bo
stored and will "keep not just one year
or two years but fifty years, prac
tically without damage. And even if
the final ginnings (which are still a
long, Jong way off) should give the
crop the extraordnary yields now
forecast, four things would soon serve
to increase prices
1. Consumption of cotton by reas
on of the attractive prices to manu
facturers, would rapidly increase.
2. Many manufacturers would not
only buy to meet present needs, but
to store a surplus for future use.
8. Many farmers, knowing that
any product in the Ion? run must al
ways bring cost of production, will
hold out part of their 1931 crop, and
