A FRIEND TO ALL j Smithfield lost a good friend in ! the passing of Lucretia Morgan I Ward. Johnston County lost a will ing worker, an active citizen, a help ful associate. Unselfish service and buoyant friendliness were keynotes of her character and life. -Even strangers were assured of hearty welcomes from her sociable nature; those in need of comfort or aid were always accorded encouragement^ and help. She was neighborly in a small world where all were considered her neigh bors. In all ranks of life she numbered her friends. Few persons can boast i of a more varied or well-rounded ! circle of intimates and acquaintances all of whom admired her cheeriness, her personality, her kindness. A devoted daughter, a loyal wife, a loving mother and a good friend she was, never weary of well doing, always dependable in war work or civic needs, ever optimistic for the future. Her presence and her deeds will be greatly missed in this com munity, the scene of her altruistic endeavors. Her rest is deservedly won. Nor is she really lost as a friend to the town and county. Her kindness and individuality and benevolence will live long as an inspiration i'n the memories of those who were fortu nate enough to know her. A FRIEND. COWPEAS, SOYBEANS, VELVET BEANS: SEVENTEEN FACTS Velvet beans planted after the wea ther gets hot are much more certain to give a good germination than when planted in the early spring. They do not require as much moisture to ger minate as most peas and beans. 2. Soybeans planted early in the spring grow off faster than the weeds but planted later in the season, the weeds are likely to grow faster. 3. Peas are opposite to soybeans in this respect. When planted early they grow slowly, but when plahted about June, they grow faster than the weeds. 4. Mung beans are like peas in this respect. 5. The early maturing varieties of soybeans make poor yields of seed when June is hot and dry, the med ium varieties when July and August are hot and dry, and the late vari eties whein late August and Septem ber fail to get rain. The rains in July are most certain, so the med ium maturing varieties are surest in making seed. Manchu is an early va riety that is constantly being of fered in the South this spring. 6. The early varieties of both peas and soybeans do not make as much hay as the medium and late matur ing kinds. 7. Either soybeans or peas plant ed in the rows with corn do not re duce the yield of corn as velvet beans will. 8. Soybeans are more resistant to wilt than peas, but in a field badly infested ohly the Laredo variety of soybeans is resistant. 9. The small seeded soybeans break through a crust in the soil during germination better than the large seeded kinds. They also volunteer better when seed are scattered and left in the field. 10. Laredo and Otootah soybean seed pop out of the pods much worse during hot weather than in cool weather. They do not pop as badly any time as Mammoth Yellow. Be cause of this the use of soybean har vesters in gathering their seed is not entirely satisfactory. 11. The soybean will stand more dryness and wetness than the pea, but the pea will grow on poorer land than the soybean. 12. A little stable manure will stimulate more growth in the pea than in almost any other plant. NOTICE The undersigned having qualified as administrator on the estate of R. L.
