yet tho seats arc well filled at these

It was a Soaker.
The heaviest rain of the growing
season fell yesterday morning between
two and four o'clock. Observer Hardin
reported the fall at one and seven one
hundredth inches, which is only one
half inch more than fell at this point
during the entire month of June.
The downpour yesterday covered
nearly tho entire county, some sections
reporting more and some less. Corn
throughout the county was needing
rain badly, though the lack of moisture
had not yet retarded the growth. With
this precipitation the crop will forge
ahead rapidly.

The Condition of Corn.
During the past week The Tribune
man has talked with farmers from the
four corners of the county and within
the four corners and learns that the
condition of corn varies greatly. In
some sections the condition is above
the average the stand being excellent
and the stalks waist high. In- other
sections the stand is poor and the stalks
small. In sections where the crop ia
good the result is due to local rains anc
constant cultivation; where it is poor it
is largely thc-result of replanting on
account of the cut worms taking the
first planting and the lack of 'moisture.
Some farmers who are not very enter
prising, have not cultivated their corn
to any extent and have not therefore
conserved-the moisturo in the ground.
The benefit of constant cultivation is
noticeable in adjoining fields tho
oultfvatcd field showing up well, the
nccrlcctcd field tho reverse.' With n
reasonably late .fall permjittogjatq, tgjjtj,,
10 maiure, ine crop in uic county win
be fairly large.

Myrtle Sunday School Convention.
At tho school house In Myrtle pre
cinct last Sunday was held one of the
district Sunday school ennventions.
The house was crowded to its capacity
and people had come from a long dis
tance in all directions to enjoy and take
port,ih the same. About 100 were
present.
, Thre Sunday schools were repre
sented and reported, the showing was
that they are doing excellent work In
the localities where tbey are being
conducted.
When the time came for dinner it
developed that the attendants had
come prepared with dinner enough to
feed as many more as was' present,
judging from the many baskets that
were 'gathered in after the feast.
The services during the day were in
deed inspiring as the discussion of Ihe
hjany liye Sunday school questions were

were participated in by a number of
local people as well as those that had
been assigned the t subjects. The

throughout the day, will doubtless be
fruitful in producing good results.
