Church is the place of public

The Church provides a comfort-

invitation to every one to come
to worship as broad as the Gos-

The grazing of certain plants
becomes dangerous about this
time of the year because of frost.
The plants affected are coffee
bean weed and Johnson grass,
and bear watching during the
times of frosts.
The first is also known as cas-
tle bean or as bladder-pod. It is
a tall weed, sometimes growing
to as much as ten or twelve feet
high and bearing pelnted pods
about two and one-half inches
>nog. usually containing two beans
each. Thepe beans are enclosed
in a paMry or bladder-like Inner
pod.
After frost, the _ locust-like
leaves o fthis plant fall, but!
the pods remain on the plant all
winter. The beans of these pods
are often poisonous and are eaten
by livestock during the winter
when pasture becomes scarce.!*-
Most of the poisoning cases seem
to take place about the first of
December to the middle of March.
The’ bfean does n-^t appear lo be
poisonous at all times, but when
it is it causes considerable loss
of livestock- Coffee bean weed is
found pi inci pally in the Southern
part of the State. Farmers who
