REPORT OM CROPS THE CONDITIONS ALU OVER MECKLENBURG SAID TO BE VERY VARIGATED. RAINS ARE TOO FREQUENT n Some of the Communities The Wet Beaaona Have Hindered the Work While In Othera the Droughts Have Been Hurtful. Charlotte. —The uniform condition >f the crops of Mecklenburg county is t&id by representative farmers to be no better than it was at a correspond ing period last season which means that the average condition ia about 70 per cent of a total average pro duction. T}ie difference in the weath er conditions of the comparative years Is also regarded as being altogether against the present crop. In the one case it was a protracted drought that caused the low ebb In the crops of Mecklenburg. Farmers say that dry seasons always tend to complicate predictions, the production usually be Ing much larger th&n expected, while wet years add the other complication of making the appearance belie the real condition. The crops of Mecklenburg, how ever, are said to be below the gov ernment estimate of conditions lately printed. The opinion is based upon the general appearances all over the county. It is not denied that in sumo sections crops are much better than they were last year and as good as they have ever been at this period of development. In other sections, the outlook is decidedly more gloomy than It was at the corresponding time last year and far below the average of other recent years. This condition arises from the infrequency of rains In some communities and a super abundance in others. The best crops In the county are said to be In lower Steele Creek and lower Providence townships, notably the former. Two weeks ago, the appearance of cotton and corn In Steele Creek was report ed better than the average condition of these two crops In other sections of the county now. Blooms were plentiful there July Fourth, which Is the date when farmers Judge for blooms to Indicate good production. Examination For Union Tsaehers. Monroe.

Statesvllle. —Three years have now elapsed since the mysterious disap pearance of Foy Curlee, and the mys tery is as far from solution as ever. In fact it deepens as the years go by because not the slighest clue has been found on which the parents of the boy and officers may base a more thor ough investigation of the case with tße hope of solution. While hope that he is alive and will some day return home is naturally entertained, the fearful possibility that he met with foul play daily haunts his people. Pellagra Situation In Orange.

Director of Eve ning Department, The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) LESSON FOR JULY 21 THE GROWTH OF THE KINGDOM. LESSON TEXT-Mark 4:28-82, Matt. IS: It GOLDEN TEXT—"Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, as In hsaven so on earth."—Matt. 6:10. Last week we observed the fact that the genesis of this new kingdom Jesus came to establish was to be the life, his life, when was as seed. The reception of the seed in various sorts of soil, however, made a vast dif ference as to the ultimate outcome. Today we may observe from these words of the Master what are to be the processes of the establishing of the kingdom, for we do not read into this parable ,a record of the final con sumatlon, #ut rather that these para bles reveal different aspects of the same general process. While it is true that this first para ble is only recorded by St Mark It is in reality a complement of theee para bles about the kingdom found in the thirteenth of Matthew and elsewhere. We have already noted that the seed Is the word, Luke 8-11, and that the ■oil lb the hearts of men, but here Jesus tells us that in the spiritual as in the material universe man "knoweth not how" the life principle frropogates Itself. It is a helpful thought to every Christian worker that h u is not to be held accountable for that part of the process; his part is to be that of the man who shall cast the seed Into the ground. Not upon, but "into." (v. 26). Having thus planted the seed let him 'sleep and rise again" e.g., let him trust a wise God to see to it that the seed germinate and bring forth. All of your worrying and mine cannot hasten the process nor change the result once the seed is sown, so let us be care ful to sow them right and bb far as possible be sure we plant It In proper ly prepared soil. Process |» Gradual. Again let ua beware of presumptu oußness "he knoweth not how." Can you, my reader, define life? Can you explain the transmission, the develop ment, the propagation of life? We ac cept the results of these things in na ture without questioning, why stagger at similar things in the spiritual realm T Why question the reality of the Christian life when we see all about us its results? In verses 22 and 23 of this same chapter we are ad monished that if we have ears "let him hear" (a positive Injunction) and almost the very next word tells us to "take heed what we hear." Going on down to verse 28 of the lessen we see clearly the reason for these words, for our lives will grow and will reproduce each after its own kind. If we sow wheat we reap wheat. If we allow tares to be sown in our lives we shall reap tares. The process is a gradual one, but a sure one. "First the blade, then the ear, and then the full corn in the ear." The harvest will not take place until the process be completed. It is not till the fruit Is ripe that the hus bandman puts forth bis sickle. We are not to bother ourselves so much with the process as we are to guard the source. Sow good seed and God will see to it that It shall bring forth. Let us not expect the "full icorn" of ripe experience from the "tender blade" of early Christian life. Let ua have patience till theße young Chris tians have time to reach the full ma turity of their powers. Jesus the har vester of this parable knew when to put In the sickle, viz., when the fruit is "ripe," (v. 29, R. V.) The Main Truth. Looking back over history hi 3 was Indeed "less than all the seeds in the earth," yet he set into motion those principles and powers that have caused his kingdom to become great In the earth (Isa. 9:7.) Under the branches of this kingdom have lodged the weary and the stricken ones. The birds of the air symbolize the gather ing together of the nations of the earth that they may take refuge un der the shelter and shadow of the kingdom of God, see Ezek. 17, Daniel 4, etc. We must, beware of fanciful interpretations or applications. The main truth is that almost without ex ception the beginnings of all great movements In the kingdom of Ctod have been like mustard seed, small but exceeding great In their growth, Witness such moral developments as the slavery question. Compare the present day temperance agitation with what It amounted to one hundred, yes, twenty-five years ago. The same can be said of ooutitless other "move ments." For the parable that of the leaven which a woman hid in the three measures of meal we need to re fer to Paul's Inspired words as record' ed In 1 Cor. 5:5-7 and Gal. 5:8-9. Hers Paul explicitly tells us that leaven li a type of sin. That we who are in Christ are a new lump, unleavened That the old leaven Is that of malice and wickedness, but that we who have put away leaven are the bread of sin cerity and truth. What do we there fore Infer? Vis., that as growing up alongside the good seed shall alsc grow the tares with fruitage of death and decay. Making Cheese In Oldsn Days, Cheese was made by the old-time farmers In the summer on the co-op erative plan by which four cittle own ers owning say 14 milch cows, received all the milk night and morning, ac cording to the daily yield of their little herd. Thus given two families having five cows each, one with three and one with one, supposing that the average yield per cow was the same, In two weeks, two owners would make five cheeses each; one "Jrould press three, and one only one cheese, but this one would'be as good and as large as any of the rest. —"Nobility of the Trades —The Farmer," Charles Wins low Hall, In National Magazlnfe.
