Columbia.-The production o; cc in South Carolina has aivanceud : the point where a grain elevator 3 be needed within two years," said F. S. Terry in discussing the inrcs: in this state. According to' stetistics prepared by the state department of agriculture the corn production for last yr w about 45,000,000 bushels. Sttist''ce obtained by the departnem sh1 that about $6,000,000 worth of ccrn is brought from the West t i state each year. This means t:U the farraers buy about TM{.0:.M els of corn annually. With aver. conditions it is expected that th. production will reach 5,0T. . els this year, which would eliminxi: the Western corn producers f:e: :ii. territory. Practically all corn produced ia state is consumed by South Carelin: farmers. Little corn is shipped cu! of the state. Reports have been ie ceived in Columbia from time tc time that farmers in various secticn: of the state experienced trcuble ir - finding a market for their corn. First of all, the elevator would b; erected in Columbia because this is the logical and gecgraphical puini A farmer in the Piedmiont or Pee D. sections, with an elevator here would have little trouble in dispcsin: of his crop. "The elevator should be e r c' with a view to handling all kinds c' grain," said Mr. Terry. "Within tw. years' time this state will be in a 1a sition to ship corn out." Study of Rider Spider Goes Or.

Three things deserve special notics in cnnection with the scene of" the baptism of Christ: The bapt-iism it 4:2-h self. the dcEcendi'rngtt dove, and the hreavenly -voice. The baptism of Christ is connected with the fact that Christ was thirty years old. T.Is v.%ss the age when Le vitical priest; were set apart and con scerated to their o'ice. The baptism. thIrcore. 1 a.s rcf%: ene to the priestly oflcee of 7rivt. Ty submitting to ba tism'. JeTsus idcntiies hims.elf with the worl's sin. Christ's b:. pti' th:n xas not per sonal-for h- hi:nsclf was sinless. The lesson tclls us that while others. after their bapti:m. stood confessing their sins in the Jordan. he im.edi ately went up cut cf the water, for -e had no Eins to confess-but oflicial and representative. Christ submitted to the same baptt ism-n which the gern era tion of vipers had received. not be cause he was one of them, but because he was their representative, and had come to tal:e upon himself their sins. Christ, in srbritting to John's bap tism. set his scal upon the divinely appointed ministry of John as the ful filn'ment of the Old Testamen prophecy. He recognized in John's baptisr Cod's pian for him, and he submaitted to it vithout questioning. If aiy man in his own right did not need baptini. it was Chri-t. By this act. Jesut set hi --a( upon the rite of baptism. a rite which m* n-y be aban do.necd or.y whon it no longer teaches any truth.
