But while we bow in humble sub mission to this dispensation of God's will we feel greatly the loss of this good woman. v . i Mrs. Wood had reached the sweet old age- of 81 years, and Vas the~old est member of Antioch church, was indeed an active and faithful mem ber, always contributing liberally of | ier means to the support of the murch until the last year or two when her health began to fail and she was not able to come to church as was her usual custom. At the time of her death she was living with her \ son, i Mr. Press Wood, but was at tded by all of her children during .last illness. Especially faithful [beautiful was the care and ten iess manifested by her devoted nighter, Mrs. Henry* Powell, and to her and the five surviving, sons, Messrs. Bill, Tom, Henry,.John and Press Wood we extend our profound sympathy and commend them to the lobing care of our Saviour who doeth all things well. Rev. A. T. Allen officiated at the funeral and the remains were laid to est in the Antioch cemetery beneath i mound of flowers placed by the lands of loving friends.

Work the Little Corm i Every farmer knows that he best j time to kill grass' is when it is just j coming up. But most of us are mighty busy planting . cotton when the grass is coming up'in the corn. The result is*" that most folks just go ahead and let the corn get grassy un til cotton is all-planted. Then they' almos", plow up the corn trying to get all the grass out. And ysu know how one thing leads to another. That fail when they gather 15 or 20 bush els of corn to. the acre 'they will say as they have always done: "Oh well, fcbjs ain't no corn-growin_ country no how." / , There is one big reason" why we do this. It's because we don't know how to work young corn. To work young corn most of us think we have to use a one-horse plow with scooter, scrape, and feeder and make a round trip to the row. And of course, nobody has time to dp that. Of course, cotton planting can't wait -on such, a slow' way of doing things. There is a way to. make time on this job and save money and make more corn. If your corn was planted on-beds or on a level, vuse the section harrow or weeder and work 12 acres a day. If jthe com was planted iii or dinary wat?er furrows, use the one horse spring-tooth cultivator or V shaped,harrow and work/a whole row at a trip. If planted in lister furrows, get regular lister harrows and work two, three, four or five rows at a time, depending- upon/ local condi tions. With the comp?ratively inexpen sive modern implements now avail able; there is little excuse for letting the corn crop suffer, even though you are in a hurry to plant cotton or oth er crops.-Progressive Farmer.
