TO Uv» BdUor or tk» duatu: And again the bounteons showers have fallen, and crab grass is growing. Watch the Governments cot* ton acreage report on June 6. It nay tend the price of the staple sky-high! There is shot "tomole” time at Getbsemine colored Baptist chnrch in Crowder’s township this county. A few weeks ago, the Rev. John Mestcy, the bell wether of the flock, questioned a brother by the sirneme of Douglas, and whose given name is Jim, in regard to matri mony. Rev. John made the discovery that Douglas had wife No. 7, while wife No. 1 was living in. S C. Jim got as mad as Tom Tucker, and re signed from the chnrch; of course Jim waited for revenge, Kev. Massey announced that ne could not be with them last Sunday, and the congregation aent for Rev. Blackburn to de liver the sermon. Rev. Black burn mounted the platform to announce ,the. opening hymn, and Jim arose from his pew, and announced: "Dcre won’t be no preaebin’ services to-day; we is goin’ to call a congress ional meetin’ for to call a pasture.’' Rev. Massey was dis posed of and Kev. McKinney was called. At 2 o’clock, Rev. Blackburn and lila follower! assembled at the borne of one Calvin Sidney Finger; and he declared that Jim and McXinney were "wolves in the sheep fold." Steps were takcu to oust Mc Kinney and his chosen few. 'The Holy Board" in Sheeby were written for, and they will be on hand the second Sunday in Jane to straighten things ont. The congregation will demand the resignation of Rev. McKinney, and if this is refused, the doors will be locked until it is granted. Most of the farmers in Pisgah have their cropa in good shape, but some have a full supply of grass yet. l<abor is in demand and very scarce. It aeeins a very dif ficult matter for the farmers to get snfficient hoe hands. The most effective work in such wet weather is with the hoes. The recent rains have stopped the farmers and grass continues to grow vigorously. The farmers in Pisgah got out their plows Thursday ana many an acre of Gaston soil was turned for the first time in a couple of weeks, it does surely look like the "Higher Power" was helping the farmer to reduce the cotton acreage. Alas, our six leaved cotton, the two lower leaves fell off during the rainy season, and now we have gone back to four leaves, five leaves and six leaves. The U. S.
