•take heed what ye hear.»»
Mark 2:24.
He that hath an ear let him hear
what the spirit saith unto the
churches.
“To him that overcometh will I
give to eat of the tree of life, which
is in the midst of the paradise of
God.”—Rev. 2:7.
Last week we wrote on “The True
Church.—“The Rock of Ages.” This
week we wish to write to those who
may be members of the different or
ganizations—and have an ear to hear
what the spirit saith to them. I want
to praise the Lord for an ear to hear
what the spirit saith unto me. And
1 want to ask every one that will to
join me in giving God honor and
praise for such a grand and glorious
spiritual blessing—to have the spirit
speak to us through our spiritual ear.
So fear have a spiritual ear to hear
His voice. For the flesh is clamering
on every side, and you know it is
impossible to listen to the flesh and
the spirit at the same time.
That is why we are to take heed
what we hear. The word of God
says: They that are after the flesh
do mind the things of the flesh, but
they that are after the spirit, the
things of the spirit. Romans 8:5.
The coming of the Lord is nigh, and
that is why the spirit is saying to
me to write and warn those who have
an ear to hear to get ready, put on
the wedding garment by living not
after the flesh but after the spirit,
for if ye live after the flesh ye shall
die, but if ye through the spirit do
mortify the deeds of the body ye shall
live. Romans 8:13.
How many of my readers would like
to be alive when Jesus comes? I wish
if there is any they would write me
a letter so I could send tlie.ii iitc^^-
ture concerning this most important
subject in God’s word. For we are
nowhere exhorted in the New Testa
ment to prepare for death, but for the
coming of Jesus. The word says: “Be
ye also ready for in such an hour as
ye think not the Son of Man cometh.
Matt. 24:44. Watch ye there and
pray always that ye may be account
ed worthy to escape all these things
that shall come to pass—and to stand
before the Son of Man. Luke 21:36.
What I say unto you I say unto all
—WATCH. Watch therefore for ye
know neither the day or the hour
wherein the San of Man cometh. Matt.

come Lord Jesus. Rev. 22:20.
And I love to sing this song:
Over yonder is a mansion,
Christ prepared for me,
God ordained that I should have it
For Eternity.
And 1^1 send my prayer before me
Ere I cross the form,
Angels get my mansion ready
I am coming Home.
Chorus.
I m coming home to heaven
^ With the angels there to dwell,
I^m coming home to glory,
Where Pll never say farewell.
I’m coming to that city
Never more again to roam;
Angels get my mansion ready,
I am coming Home!
Soon our Lord will come in glory.
Come for you, and me;
And will take us to that city
There to ever be.
Then on golden plains eternal
We will ever roam.
Angels get my mansion ready,
I am coming Home.
One that loves His appearing.

SAVES SOIL FERTILITY
BY TERRACING FIELDS.
tinue building and maintaining ter
races until erosion on all parts of the
Hickory farm is controlled. On new
ly terraced fields, the first setting of
nursery stock is planted in curved
rows conforming to the contour of
the land and the natural curves of the
terraces. This is done that the ter
races may settle properly and be
come very firm. Once the terraces
are well set, later plantings will dis
regard terrace lines and straight
rows run over the terraces.
Mr. Howard also stated that even
when there is no erosion, it is diffi
cult to maintain soil fertility due to
the fact that nursery stock requires
a fertile soil and second, about every
rour years a quantity of soil is re
moved and shipped with the plants.
When erosion also takes away some
of this most fertile soil, as often oc
curs on rolling land not properly ter
raced, the problem is greatly intensi
fied.
ANNUAL FARM MEETING
WAS GREAT SUCCESS.
Spending $3,000 a year for stable
manure alone is a heavy expense,
even on a nursery farm, especially
when much of the purchased fertility
is lost through soil erosion.
“So the Howard-Hickory Nursery,
of Catawba county, began to build a
complete systenr of terraces and is
now controlling erosion through the
use of the Mangum terrace,” says A.
T. Holman, agricultural engineer at
State College. “This nursery farm
is located on rolling land which makes
the erosion problem more serious. In
the past, the company has attempted
to maintain the fertility of its farm
by using commercial fertilizers, grow
ing green manure crops and appljnng
stable compost. The annual bill for
stable manure alone has amounted to
approximately $3,000. Such attention
to soil fertility is important in the
production of good nursery stock.”
Mr. Holman states that 0. Joe
Howard, secretary and treasurer of
the nursery company, makes the state
ment that his results with the use of
the Mangum terrace are so encourag
ing that the company plans to con-
Despite a lower attendance than in
previous years, the 26th annual State
Farmer's and Farm Women's conven
tion held at State College during the
week of July 23 was a great success.
Total registration for rooms was
about 300 below that for last sum
mer due largely to delayed crops, the
tobacco harvest and low prices for
early truckk crops in Eastern Caro
lina. However, on Thursday, a few
over 1,000 persons had registered and
hundreds of others had driven in for
some part of the program and did not
desire rooms. The men were greatly
outnumbered by the rural women,
many of whom left their husbands at
home with the crops and children, so
that advantage might be taken of the
annual short course for farm women
which was a part of the convention
exercises this year.
In fact, some of the main features
of the program were arranged for the
l^ies. Five were honored with the
title of Master Farm Homemaker.
These were Mrs. J. E. Corriher, of
China Grove; Mrs. W. B. Lamb, Gar
land; Mrs. A. R. Poyner, Moyock;
Mrs. W. T. Whitsett, Whitsett, and
Mrs. W. D. Graham, Mt. Ullla. Four
others were awarded certificates for
having attended four short courses.
There were Mrs. Henry Middleton, of
Warsaw; Mrs. S. B. Nash, Franklin-
ton;; Mrs. Martha Jackson, Cooper,
and Mrs. C. M. Rhodes, Zebulon.
Excellent programs were provided
in each of the sectional meetings. The
general meetings held each day at 11
o’clock carried the principal addresses
of the convention. Questions pertain
ing to all phases of farm life were
discussed from feeding children to
forming state organizations of far
mers. The progrram was almost en
tirely a made-in-Carolina affair. Only
one person from outside of the State
was invited to speak. The program
was also featured by the large num
ber of practical farmers and farm
women having part in the proceedings
than in past years.
Whale meal cannot compare with
fish meal as a supplementary feed for
hogs, according to recent tests made
at the North Carolina Experiment
station.

HEALTH CLINICS.
The ridge or hill method of culti
vating tobacco is helping to overcome
some of the bad effects of too mtich
rain in Martin county.
Seventy-five farm women attended
the county camp for women n Colum
bus county during June. Thirty wom
en also made a tour to Washington
and other points at a cost of $30 per
person.

Moore County and the North Car
olina State Board of Health are of
fering protection by free vaccination
against typhoid fever, smallpox and
diphtheria, to every man, woman and
child in the county.
Vaccination with typhoid vaccine is
successful in preventing the disease
as is also vaccination for the two oth
er above mentioned diseases. In 1927
3,034 people in North Carolina had
diphtheria and 272 died. Diphtheria
is especially fatal among children but
young adults also die from the dis
ease. Three treatments a week apart
are necessary for typhoid and diph
theria and only one for smallpox.
Treatments for typhoid and diphthe
ria are harmless and almost painless.
Neither cause any sore.
The following clinics are arranged
and we give the dates, places and
hours below. Bring your whole fam
ilies to these clinics. Choosing the

Tom Kelly and Talbot Johnson were in Norfolk the first of
the week, and while there they dropped into see Mr, Capps of the
Seaboard. When they came away Mr. Capps had instructed them
to put a red line on the map around locations 541, 452 and 453 at
Knollwood Heights.
The Seaboard has always been interested in the Sandhills,
and has done a tremendous lot to help this section to move. Knoll
wood has attracted the railroad and Mr. Capps figured that the fu
ture makes an investment here a wise move. He knows what is do
ing here and what is in store for the future as well as any man liv
ing, and he backs his judgment.
Knollwood is close to the Seaboard, and the Seaboard is close
to Knollwood.
This week the Vail house is staked out,
and it shows another large and interesting
structure, and on its fine site on the hill
top the world is in front of it.
Men and teams started last week on the
Van Keuren house near the No. 1 and No.
18 fairways, and that makes a string of
operations that embrace four houses with
in sight of each other, and all now under
way.
Between Pine Needles and the Pee Dee
road and between the Midland road and
Arbutus road are now ten houses built or
building in the new section, and an army
of men still extending water lines and
sewers to open more building sites. A car
of pipe has just rolled in for further ex
tension of this work, which will go on un
til locations enough for the calls of the
coming fall will be available.
And what a difference over there at Knollwood this week
and a year ago when nothing had been done except to get engin
eers on the ground to plot the roads. What will another year do
there?
This is the time to answer that question, and a safe way is to
