I did not know of one in this part of the State. Hundreds of acres.of green eorn in one field at Andrews are being cut by the ACL Corp, hauled4 to the silo and cut up fine in a feed 1 ^ ' cutter with a gasoline engine and i put in through an elevator, to be pressed down by weight to prevent the circulation of air and keep it from spoiling. They say it was a success last year. I suppose the corn , % was planted after oats, so as to have ? it mature late and put up during ! the cool weather of the fall, which [ no doubt helps it to keep well in our Jr climate. Cotton everywhere is opening faster than it can be picked, and I see very good corn in some places, I but some fodder dried up ?not pullI ed. The Western hay crop is short? 1 not much pea vine hay planted, still I we have the finest crab grass in hisk tcry in almost every corn field and , P"--- cotton patch, but nobody cutting it, f and I fear next summer will tind us i & like the ship sailing in the mouth of ' the Amazon river, which being 1 -~>0 , 11--^ mil<^ wide, they thought they were in the ocean?out of water, displayf ing distress signals! Another ship ( coming to their rescue hailed,! < L "What's the matter?" "We're per- | I" ishing for water!" "Why don't you \ B dip down and drink, then? You are 1 I in th? mouth of the Amazon, the i | water is fresh!" i Oh, Mr Yankee, send us some hay, 1 our stock is perishing! We know we J I might have dipped down last fall and < I had all the hay we needed, but we ? thought we had cotton enough to P buy a few tons of hay. Alas! alas! We must have something even if is a ? f few weeds and thistles we sometimes buy for hay. Then cut the hay, boys, save the hay. We are glad to see a few people cutting some in Possum Fork. I and will continue until the glorious morning of Messiah's King dom. How glad we are that we har.? learned that then the glorious charg > will come to earth. The Prophet Parid expresses this thought, saying. "Weeping may endure for the night, but Joy cometh In the morning" (Psalm xxx. 5). St. Paul breathed the sau seutlment when he declared, "The whole ereatlor groaneth and travaileth In pain together until now. waiting for the manifestation of the sons of Cod" (Romans vlii, 22). The sons of G<>d in glory will, with their Lord, constitute Emmanuel's Kingdom. At present these sons of God ere comparatively little known or recog nized amongst men; frequently \rTgf they are consid- ered "peculiar of their zeal for truth and for now are we the fj'itffej/ song of God, and I j it doth not yet i appear what we shall be. but we Mankind enslaved tj know that when "rtn and d Ctht" He shall appear we shall be like Him. j for we shall see Him as lie Is;" and i we shall share Ills glory, honor nnd > Immortality and with Him scatter Dl-' rlne blessings to all the families of the earth. ?? "A 8ong of Deliverance" Our lesson, the 85th Psalm, may properly have several appllcatlpns. The first of these would be to Israel's deliverance from the Babylonian captivity, when Cyrus gave permission that nil who desired might return to Pales- j tine. Al>out fifty-three thousand, a I small company, availed themselves of j this privilege and of his assistance j The people rejoiced in this manifests- j tion of the turaing away of Divine disfavor and the return to them of Divine j favor and blessing. The pardon of their transgressions as a nation was evidenced In this privilege of returning to God's favor. A secondary application of the Song is Just before us. Israel has been in 1 far greater captivity to Christendom " * ? -* nontnrlac junng me pusi ei^uitxu , She has the promise nevertheless of a nighty deliverance. The Cyrus who i jave them liberty to return from lit- j ?ral Babylon was a type of the great | Messiah who Is about to give full lib- j ?rty for the return of God's ancient ' People to Divine favoi^-to Palestine J 5t Paul refers to this coming deliverance of Israel, in Romans xl, 25-29. The Deliverer will do more than merey regather them. He will do that which the 85th Psalm has predicted; is the Apostle says, "This is My Covelant with them when I shall take tway their sins." See also Jeremiah txxi, 31-34; Hebrews viii. 8-11. Israel's sins have not yet been taken iway, even as the world's sins have lot yet been taken away. The great Etedeemer indeed has died for sin, and 3e is the sinner's friend, but as yet 3e has only appeared in the presence >f God for iis?the Church?not for the world. "Songs In the Night Hs Giveth" While the w jole creation groans un- J ler its load of sin and sorrow, the iaintly few mi.y sing, may rejoice, even n the midst of all the sorrows of life, md even though they share the remits of sin as fully or even more fully than do others | The secret of *kelr J?5" Is two fold. (1) They 'iave experienced reconciliation t o have submitted tained this new relations hip by the wav of fnltts D<ath-- tte last,a*mV , the'R(l(leemcr to U destroyed. . , . . -faith In Ills olood of Atonement. They entered by the "strait gate" and "narrow way" of consecration to God?surrendering their i Dwn wills and covenanting to do tht Divine will to the best of their nbil- i Ity. These have Joy and peace and so ag:.- i Df thankfulness to God because toj them He grants a knowledge of Hls| Divine purposes, and shows their , things to come. These see beyond the trials and tribulations of the present time?they see the glories that will follow the present time of suffering. These see that the Church, the saintly few of all denominations and of all nationalities, are prospective heirs ol' ?lory, honor and immortality and association with the Redeemer in His glorious Kingdom. This encourages them When they perceive that God has arranged that through Christ and the glorified Church the earth shall be blessed, it makes them "Joyful In the house of their pilgrimage"?while waiting for their own change from human to divine nature. Seeing that God's provision "Is human perfection for the world of mankind," they are contented, and are glad to have God's will done in themselves and In all the earth. THE LAND OF !
