DEATH OF LITTLE ROLUE SMOAK Thursday night, May 26, between the hours of seven and eight, the Angel of Death silently came into the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Smoak and claimed for its own their j little son Rollie. He suffered fer about three weeks. His death was caused by measles. All was done for him that loving hands could do, but to no avail, for God had need for lit- m tie Rollie in heaven, and in His ail- ^ wise way took him. This dear little jJ one was permitted to stay only a "ll shoft while, yet his memory will jj ever linger in our hearts, and we have been saddened, yet it is sweet to know that litfle Rollie is safe in the arms of Jesus whispering softly, "Mother, father, little brothers and sisters, I am at the beautiful gate waiting and watching for you.!’ He was placed by loving hands in the Smoaks burying ground Friday, May 27. May the God df all comfort the heartbroken mother and may they have the sweet consolation of know ing that though their little one can not come back to them, they* can go to him and live forever. Sleep on little Rollie and take thy rest, we loved thee but God loved thee best.

When a man fnlly understands that the only part of the roots of the corn or cotton plants that are getting food from the soil is the lit tle zone of fine root hairs near the extreme tips of the roots, which laying-by time are well across the rows, he will never put a plow in there to tear them off and deprive the plant of the food those root hairs would have gotten for him, but will cultivate the crop as level and shal low as possible to avoid injuring the roots. Every big root of the corn or cotton you cut off deprives the plant of millions of feeding hairs out at the extremity of that root. And yet, I have seen many a man coming out of a corn row with hia plow al most choked with the roots he had torn off. and thinking he had' done good work in laying-by that corn with a big ridge, when he had realjy shortened the crop.—W.
