With the approach of Hot Weather we naturally think

which everyone must do regardless of the heat. As a means

oranges snow injury m some
places. More than the frost the
continued dry weather is hurting
crops. In the upper end of Har-
ris County potatoes and corn are
looking well in spite of the frost
and drought; most of the land
was plowed early in the season so
that the little moisture is not es-
caping very fast. In that sec-
tion and in the Little York ter-
ritory the farmers are beginning
to harvest their Irish potatoes.
Morris, Harrison, Gregg, Wood
and Rains
Crop conditions in the above
counties are very favorable at
this time. Corn is looking well,
and is up to a good stand; cot-
ton planting is well under way,
and from the very best estimate,
I can get of this crop, it will
not exceed in acreage the crop of
last year. Ground is being pre-
pared for a large crop of sweet
otatoes. The peanut crop will
tie largo; truck crops and gard-
ns arc looking well, and quite a
large acreage is devoted to these
rops. Very little damage was
lone to these crops by the recent
Teeze. The fruit crop promises
o be a large one, at least 7& jjerJ ^

To Get On Well With Other*.
"In order to be satisfied even with
the best people we need to be con-
tent with little and to bear a great
deal," says the wise Fenelon. He
finds that there must be “a mutual,
loving forbearance. Frequent silence,
habitual recollection, prayer, eelf-de-
tacbment, giving up all critical ten-
dencies, faithfulness In putting aside
all the idle Imaginations of a jealous,
fastidious self-love, all these will go
far to maintain peace and union. How
many troubles would be avoided by
tbls simplicity! Happy Is he who
neither listens to himself nor to the
Idle talk of others."
No Wonder It Waa Different.
