Nitrogen is the most needed food'* for the garden crops. and 4 an abundant and readily available supply should be on hand at all times. In most cases the garden crops can be benefited by an application of sulfate of ammonia or nitrate of soda. Scatter some three to five inches from the base of the plant, and cover with a shallow culti vation. It will usually pay well. Suggestions Gather the mature lima beans every week and store them away for winter use. Cabbage plants may be obtain ed from plant growers now and transplanted to the garden or field during September and Oc tober. These plants, under fa vorable conditions, will produce headed cabbage in December. They may be used, of course, as preens before heads are formed. We recommend Charleston Wake field and Drumhead Savoy. The Savov will stand more cold than any other variety.

When the people murmured against him at Kadesh, in pride of leadership and worn with age and toil he resented their ingratitude, called them rebels, and angrily smote the rock. God brought forth the water, but rebuked Moses. This was before the death of Aaron. The ^ two brothers were denied 'dahsan, but their sin was put a- way and they were prepared for the heavenly land of promise. Thus were the great brothers delivered from their own trans gressions and prepared to go to a better world.

ROBERT II. HARPER Estimate Ijow many cords you can cut. Then get in touch with our local deal er, or telephone, or Mrile us for prices and specifications. R. M. WINN, PLUM BRANCH, S. C. The Sin of Moses and Aaron. Lesson for September 19: Num bers 20: 1-13, 27, 28. Golden Text: Ephesians 4:26. In 40 years the old generation of Israel had passed away and a new one that had not known bondage would soon begin the conouest of Canaan. The two brothers and a sister, leaders of the people, were reaching the end of their labors—younger leaders would take their places. Miriam was first to go. Older than Moses, she had watched over him in the bulrushes. She led the song of , deliverance by the Red sea. | Known as a prophetess, she was I a woman of great force of cha •- acter. Aaron was next cal d. On Mount Hor, when his pries y garments had been removed. ie died, and Eleazer, his son, b'- came high priest. And M s's himself would soon die on M-iuit,; Pisgah. Miriam and Aaron had no rl- ways supported their brot r; once they conspired against him. : But on the whole they had been loyal to Moses, the great leader. Sadly enough, Moses did not Harry L. Brown, general agent of the Farm Credit Administra tion of Columbia, and former as sistant secretary of agriculture, aid recently that he was sure the farmers of the Third Farm Credit district, composed of the states ot South Carolina. North Carolina, Georgia, aiyl Florida, would do their part in investing in war bonds, especially during the Third War Loan drive. “There are four thincs war bonds will do.” Mr. Brown said. “They will provide the nation with needed funds with which to prosecute the war. They consti tute a method of savings when income is good. Then, too, these bonds will be available for what ever needs the farmers may have for cash after the war is over— thin|s they can’t buy at the present time,—and when pur-. chasing power will be needed to keep the wheels of industry turn ing. "And the most important,” h§ concluded, “the more money that farmers invest in war bonds, the more retarded will be the trend towards inflation. We surely don’t want to have the reaction we had after the first World War. During those days land sold away above its normal value and many farmers were financially sunk be cause they paid more than the land was worth.” “Read ’En\,and Reap”:UUR ADS
