VOLUME XXIX 7 Year Old Boy Kills 6 Year Old Chum WERE PLAYING WITH A SINGLE BARRELED SHOT GUN Toq of Boy's Head Entirely Torn Away—Were in a Room Abone Boy an Only Child—Former School Hates Attend Funeral in a Body And Six of them act as Pall-bearers At the Funeral—A beautiful Floral Design Given by His Mates Ormenzell Alston, 6 years of age, was shot and instantly killed by a playmate, Robert Green, at the home of the latter, No. 1204 McCarthy street, on last Saturday night. The Alston boy had gone to the home of his god-parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Green, to spend the day. Shortly after dark the Alston boy went over to the Green boy's house and the two were alone in a room and began playing with a single barreled shot gun which was in the room. In some way the gun went off in the hands of the Green boy, and the load struck the top of Alston's head tearing it away completely. On account of the age of the boy he was not arrested and it was the decision of the coroner that the killing was accidental. The funeral of the Alston boy was held from the home of his parents on Monday afternoon and was attended by lite dead boy's former schoolmates in a body, who gave a beautiful floral design. Six of the little schoolmates acted as pall-bearers. The dead boy was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Ossian Alston. 517 west Thirty-fourth street, and was a bright little fellow, being a member of Mrs. E. R. Dennis' school. The parents of the Green boy, in whose hands the gun was accidently discharged, are very much grieved over the currence.

Caton Woodville, the English war artist, painted a large equestrian portrait of the Emperor Frederick of Germany in the handsome white uniform of the Imperial guards, with the magnificent golden helmet crowned by the silver eagle. In his "Random Recollections," Woodville says: "It was a and task. I painted the portrait shortly after the emperor's death, and the empress was very particular about the color and shape of his eyes. She wore a bracelet with a miniature of one of his eyes painted on ivory in a medallion upon it. She stood beside me for hours holding the bracelet so that I could see it in the best light and not miss any of the details." Suspicious Action= "I wish," said the head of the film, "you'd keep an eye on the office boy." "Very well, sir," replied the secretary. "Do you think he has been stealing postage stamps?" "I have no idea what he has been doing, but he's up to mischief of some kind. For three mornings now he has bad all my papers placed upon my desk just as they should be, with nothing, to indicate that he has been reading the sporting pages. There's something very suspicious about it."—Chicago Record-Herald. American Women's Wages: There are over 6,000,000 working women in the United States whose average salary is only $4 a week.

LATEST IMPROVEMENT TO OUR OFFICE A LINOTYPE MACHINE During the latter part of last week there was installed in our office the latest model double magazine linotype. For some time the work in our office has been such that we have needed a machine and in order that we might meet the demands of the public and also that we might be in position to give better service we found it necessary to get a machine. We are now better prepared to render the most efficient service to the public and to get work out in the shortest possible time. St. Thomas' P. E. Church Defies the Bishop The vestry of St. Thomas' P. E. church, the oldest Colored Episcopal church in America, openly defied Bishop Rhinelander of the Diocese of Pennsylvania, when, for the first time, Rev. William G. Avant took charge of the altar on Sunday night before a large congregation, who gave him a warm welcome. In assuming charge he has incurred the Bishop's displeasure, and so has been inhibited. The Bishop has secured Francis A. Lewis and George Wharton Pepper, the best legal talent in the city. This promises to be a case of interest to canonists of the Episcopal Church. St. Thomas' Church is an independent church hence their refusal to obey orders. When the vestry notified the Bishop of their decision, they told him they did not come there to seek advice only to notify him of their determination. Rev. Avant is from Newberne, N. C., where he was an archdeacon. The last rector was Rev. A. C. V. Cartier, one of the brainiest men in the connection. He resigned because the church was indebted to him 2.041.63.—Philadelphia Tribune. Immensities and Eternities. Herschel in his day revealed the immenities and the eternities as they had never been revealed before, and to us of the present day the universe is much greater than to Herschel and his contemporaries. Five hundred millions of stars are known—500,000,000 flaming suns whirling through space and carrying along with them in all probability systems of planets and satellites. There are stars at all stages of development, from the nebulous mass at the beginning of its star life to the dim red variables flickering as they die out into the darkness. This is the universe, "grand, splendid and sublime," which Flammarion reveals to his readers.—London Everyman. As It Was Revealed. Dr. Hale declared once that he had had a special revelation. He was down in Maine with an agreeable company of fishermen, and he must needs leave the trout brook in order to get to Boston in time to prepare his sermon. As he thought of the old trout rod and the new sermon, the "revelation" suddenly came to him something like this: "It is far better to preach a good old sermon than a poor new one.

LARGEST BASEBALL ATTENDANCE AGAIN THIS YEAR WILL CINCH IT Opening Schedule _Game Of _Season Will Be Played With Charleston On Next Thursday—Record Attendance Looked For—Other Games To Be Reported By Special Wire At Park Baseball fans will be at ease again on next Thursday when the first regular game of the South Atlantic League will be played at League park with the Charleston team. Indications are that attendance on opening day will even surpass that of last year, when the local quark draw the largest crowd in the circuit, and also won the silver loving cup presented by the Columbus Ledger for the largest attendance. In order to retain the cup a city must win it two years in succession, therefore Savannah is out strong for permanent possession of it and will have to duplicate the little trick of last year if she hopes to retain it, by drawing the largest crowd this year. The spring training games of the locals have shown them to be a strong aggregation and it would not be at all unlooked for if they repeat the accomplishments of last year's team by winning both halves of the season. On Monday the Providence team, which is training here, will play the Georgia Hussars. An added attraction of this game will be the recording of respective scores on the score board at the park. The league of course opens Monday with Savannah in Charleston, but the first game on the home grounds will be Thursday afternoon with Charleston. DR, F. S.

Newsome, Esq., on Monday of this week, Augusta loses one of her oldest citizens, and the Masonic fraternity of Georgia its oldest. Mr. Newsome had resided in Augusta for 54 years and was well known to a large circle of friends and acquaintances. He was an expert cabinet and picture frame maker and had been in the employ of some of Augusta's largest firms. In the days of Colored military, he was a leading member of the Douglas Infantry. In the Masons he was a leader and perhaps knew more of Masonry than any man in Augusta. His death is generally regretted and the sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved family. He is survived by two sons, Messrs. Thos. B. and Richard V. Newsome. His funeral took place from St. Mary's church on Tuesday afternoon, Father S. A. E. Coleman, the rector, officiating—Georgia Baptist.

SOUTH ATLANTIC MEDICAL SOCIETY REORGANIZED On The day night of last week the South Atlantic Medical Society was reorganized at the office of Dr. H. M. Collier 240 President street, cast. The meeting was a very enthusiastic one and was largely attended. Seeing the necessity of having an organization making the medical, dental and pharmaceutical men of the city and believing that they should be united, a call was made to them to meet and result, is the organization which was formed on last week. At this meeting Dr. George W. Smith was elected president. The society of course is the same as that organized about two years ago, with Dr. F. S. Belcher as president, but which on account of the laxity of interest on the part of the members it was allowed to disintegrate. As with the former, the present society is affiliated with the Georgia State Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association. The officers of the society are: Dr. George W. Smith, president; Dr. C. E. Brent, vice president; Dr. O. C. Clayborne, secretary; Dr. H. M. Collier, treasurer. The society meets the first Friday night in each month. Tomorrow night at S o'clock the Right Reverend F. F. Reese, Bishop of the Diocese, will preach and confirm a large class at St. Stephen's church. The music will be of a high class and the public is invited to be present. All seats free.

It measured twelve feet two inches from tip of tail to nose, six feet three inches in girth, fifteen inches across from ear to ear and possessed a seven inch skull, while the track made by the huge beast covered eleven inches in length. An idea of the size of this monster can be gained when it is known their average length is only about eight or nine feet."

Representatives Tell Burleson that Joseph Stewart Favors Negro Clerks Under Him. Washington, March 23.—Charging that he has been too friendly to the Negro railway mail clerks under him, and that, in addition, he is a hold-over Republican, Representatives Webb and Page of North Carolina to-day requested Postmaster General Burleson to dismiss from the service Second Assistant Postmaster-General Joseph Stewart. There is feeling against Stewart, especially among Southern Senators and Representatives, over reports that he has shown undue partiality to Negro employees under him. Democrats in Congress have been demanding the removal of Stewart since the advent of the Wilson Administration. The nomination of Robert H. Terpal Court here was reported favorone of the five Judges of the Municipal Court there was reported favorably from the Senate Judiciary Committee to-day in spite of threats of Senators Vardaman of Mississippi and Smith of Georgia to defeat his confirmation if possible.

Hunter is principal, held its closing exercises in the school building on last Tuesday evening. The program, which was of a high order, had a very interesting feature, a speaking contest with four prizes to be awarded the best deliverers. The first prize, a beautiful little doll, was won by little Miss Arthetta Wicks; the second by Miss Frances Butler, cup and saucer; the third a watch by little Nathaniel Frazier and the fourth, a fine jar of candy, by Miss Green.

School Boys' League Assisted by Business Men DONATE PARAPHERNALIA TO THE FOUR TEAMS Thirty-three Of The Leading Negro Business Men Subscribe To The Cause—Everything Ready For The Opening Games On The 18th—Freddie Jones, Alonzo Deas and Jerry Nesbitt To Captain Teams—Catholic Boys To Select Leader Next Week The School Boys' Baseball League which was recently, organized under the auspices of the Local Branch of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, was given a very encouraging boost this week by many of the leading Negro business men of the city, when they subscribed to the fund which is being gotten up for the purpose of purchasing paraphernalia for the league. Thirty-three subscriptions in all were received to the fund from the business men and it is expected that by this time next week this number will be more than doubled, as the committee in charge of raising the money did not have time to call on as many as they desired. According to the official schedule, the league will open on the 18th with the West Broad Street School playing the Beach Institute and the East Broad Street School facing the Catholic School. Each school will play nine games, three with each opponent. All games will be played on the commons, except the final contest for the championship which will be pulled off at the ball park.

It is a common thing with smokers for their safety match boxes to give out on the striking side before all the matches are used up. If they will keep in mind just one thing this can always be averted. The safety striking part is very quick on trigger and needs only a slight contact instead, of a long scratch. Simply snap the end of the match quickly for about a quarter of an inch on the striking surface. In this way the outside may always be kept fresh and usable. The long scratch, of course, causes the match to ignite before contact ceases, and the surface is actually burnt up. Some safety matches will strike on a windowpan—Chicago Record-Herald THE ISSUE OF JUDGE, TEREELL To charges that he was disposed, to ignore the claims of the Negro to political recognition for the sake of party peace, President Wilson made a good and sufficient answer more than a month ago when he nominated Robert H. Terell for another term as Judge of the Municipal Court, District of Columbia. JudgeTerrell is a graduate of Harvard, a Republican in politics and the only Colored man in the country to hold a judicial position of this dignity. His nomination was endorsed Southern man, who is quoted as saying that he found him the best Judge on the Municipal bench of the District. This nomination, which went so far in recognition of the Colored man as to disregard party politics, has now been reported favorably to the Senate by the Judiciary Committee, but with dissent of the Southern members and the promise of a fight on the floor against confirmation under the leadership of Mr. Vardaman of Mississippi. Vardaman of Mississippi. It is believed that the nomination will be confirmed. But this is not the whole question. Is it to be conor largely also by Democratic votes? Is the attitude of Democracy in the Senate toward the Colored man to be be determined by the Vardamans, who would deny him all equality of opportunity?—New York World; ce o * aoe tml fe ter “4 Bee ON ane a Ee RR SN ON eee, ET “s : mi ? . ‘ t ' = e é ‘ ‘ +00 be .

Where conditions seem to warrant the spring sowing the seed should be sowed a4 soon as the soll can be put in goud condition after the frost {s out of the ground. if the soll is not in 2 good condition of fertility it should be well manured and then plowed to a medium depth. It should then be burrowed so ‘as to make a fine and mellow sved bed. ‘While it is not absolutely necessary, It afds in getting a stand of alfalfa if the field 1s inoculated with soll from an established alfalfa field or a spot where sweet clover has grown. Such soil may be-scattered thinly from 4 manure spreader or mixed in a couple of layers with the manure. While the practice de sowing a nurse crop [s commonly followed with red clover, it 1s best not to do so with alfalfa, as the rapidly growing grain smothers the young al- falfa plants, which have [ittle or no chance if dry weather comes immedi- ately following the harvest of the grain. The plece of ground to be used should be well drained, should be sweetened with lime, if It is Inclined to be sour, and should be as free as pos- sible from weed seeds. +The alfalfe seed should be drilled In to a depth of about an inch and a half and at the rate of from fifteen to twenty pounds per acre. Where the August sowing fs preferred (and it is in mans sections) the ground selected for It should be sown with un early maturins small grain crop, and as soon as this is off the ground the tract should be plowed and disked at frequent Intervals until about the middle of August. If the soil ts not rich the manuring should he given as in the case of the spring sow- ing, also the same inoculation and method of seeding. Where fields of alfalfa iu thelr second year will yield five tons of the finest hay per year in even horthern scetfons, the question of getting a start with the crop Is one that should Interest a good many more farmers. It Is usually best to start with a few acres and get fenillar with its culture. AN INTERESTING EXPERIMENT. Farmers who are interested in rais- ing dual purpose cattle which will not only make a creditable showing in milk return. but om the block ag beef, will be Intere=ted In an experiment which is belng cmiucted at North Oaks, Minn. throu; the co-operation of James J. Hill, prestdent of the Great Northern allway. and Professor Thomas Shaw, the well known live stock authority. Last year Mr. Hill purchased in England some of the most perfect representatives of the dual purpose milking Shorthorn. The importation includes twenty-three head of cows, ranging In age from two to six years, and three bulls. The cows have milk records running from 6,000 to 10,000 pounds each yearly, while the bulls have been cel prize win- ners in English show With many others who sense the 1. «ning of a de- creasing beef supply ud also that dal- rying is the best meaus by which soil fertility may be maintained, Mr. Hill is financing the above experiment for the purpose of sotving the twofold problem, ‘The results will be noted with a good deal of interest not only hy stock raisers, but.by many others who are interested in the future pros- perity of the country.

The soll for the row should be rich and mellow and located where nearby sod will not absorb the moisture need- ed for the peas when the drier weather comes on. ‘The seed should be planted at the bottom of a trench five or six inches deep and covered with a couple of Inches of mellow soil As soon as they have come through this and have made a growth of a couple of inches the rest of the soll should be added to fill the trench, Sweet peas will make the best growth and give the best re- sults if they are kept free from weeds and given frequent hoeing. The trellis on which the peas are to grow should be put in piace early so that they will have something to cling to as soon as the tendrils begin to reach for a sup port, BEEF SHORTAGE FIGURES. The seriousness of the situation in regard to the shortage of beef is ap- preciated not only in the advancing prices for cuts of meat on the local market, but in figures which have been compiled on the beef industry of the country. ‘The per capita consumption of meat bas dropped from 162 pounds in 1909 to 152 pounds in 1913, or ten Pounds in four years. In the past six years, from 1907 to 1913, the number of beef enttle in the country has.drop- ped froin 51,566,000 head te 36,030,000 head. Based on figures gathered in plants where there is federal inspec tlon, there lias been a falling off in the number of animals killed of 1,419,- 00 cattle. or 780,000,000 pounds of beef, In the interval from 1910 to 1913.

He ought to buy.a good pocket lens, costings about 75 cents, and carefully study all the para- sites, scabs and fungi he can find. In battling with mildew, mites, spiders and moths al) infected trees should be pruned and the dead and decaying parts removed. All wounds should be cleaned out and the flaking, sealing bark ought to be scraped away from the trunks. Let this work pre- cede the spraying with lime-sulpbur. ‘AM rubbish should be burned at once. ‘This will expose all the bibernating pests sv the spray will reach them. easily. Every part of the tree ought to be bathed in the film of spray even to the tinfest twig. The best time for applying sprays to the pests mentioned ta a short tme before the buds show aigns of swelling. Bordeaux 6450 ts the spray used most in late winter spraying, when the Yme-sulphur is deemed inadequate. It 1s very effective in dealing with an- thracnose and incipient cases of peach leaf curl. To be really effective the spray should be put on at a dry time, a8 a fall of rain will wash off muck of the spraying material and Jessen its ef- fectiveness. ‘The one pest that ought to be fought hardest by the winter sprayer is the fan Jose scale. Look for the round, grayish and Diack, button shaped bodies with a pimple-like elevation in the center. This elevation is about the elze of a pin head and is often sur- rounded by a red ring. Lime-sulpbur sofation properly applied will kil} the Ban Jose ecale at any date between the falling of the leaves and the leafing out in spring. ‘There are three rules that I think every man should apply in going about sprasing, whether he is doing the work in winter or in summer. They are: ‘When you spray, be sure you are do- ing It at the right time. If you don’t know the reason why you are spraying, don’t spray at all. The only way to know the reasons for spraying is to study up on every insect or fungus that ts causing you trouble now or may trouble “you in the near future. ‘Men no longer argue about the value of spraying. That has been settled for all time. ‘The scabless, sound and smooth skinned froit of the sprayed orchard has settled that question. Al) that remains for us, to Enow is the when and the how.

Even at times when the way seemed impassable and friends all around us have appeared dejected, we have hoped and prayed believing in the meantime that in some way and by means of divine intervention, some good will come out of existing evil. Such is our feeling today as we scan the sayings and doings of our national law makers and note the cyclonic evolutions of the Mississippi senator in regard to the Negro question. His recent speech in the senate in which he implied that all Negro votes are purchasable, hits so far from the truth that it has brought to our open defense, new friends and sympathizers. Be it as it may, Senator Vardaman will no doubt awake some late day to find that after all the race which he apparently is so bent on discrediting and destroying, very much in evidence both as to members as well as friends. The recent suggestion purported to have come from one Clarence Poe of the Progressive Farmer, to exclude Negroes from land ownership in any district where a majority vote could be polled against them is indeed the reaching of the high water mark of racial prejudice and narrowness. To note that North Carolina, the State in which lynching is hardly known; the State which has made it possible for there to be built up within her the largest Negro Insurance Company in the world, the State in which the friendly relation between the races has been marked, comes as a distinct surprise to us. We cannot for the life of us see how North Carolina would tolerate such a law. We do not believe that she will. If we are to stick to the farm as we have been advised to do, then we must be encouraged to know that it is within our province to own at least a part if not all of the land which we till. The people of North Carolina, both white and black are now progressing nicely. May the present peace and tranquility be not disturbed by some notoriety seeker. Spring is herel What joyful news this is! Following as it were, in the wake of one of the severest and most devastating winters known to the inhabitants of this section, the long looked for season of humming birds and blooming flowers comes to us with greater significance than ever before. What a contrast between the present weather and that of a few days ago! But yesterday, seemingly and we were wrapped in our furs and big coats. Today, the sweet balmy sunshine with which the season is possessed invites us to outdoor life and recreation. How blessed indeed is one who, possessed of soundness of both body and mind, can seek at this time the haunts of nature and there commune with her in her domicile. And too, there comes with this most welcomed season, a corresponding decrease in the demand for the necessities of life. The wood and coal bill becomes lighter. Other heavy expenses are cut. Thus an opportunity presents itself to the frugally inclined, "to lay by" for the next hard and expensive season which will present itself to us. This to us seems to be the wise thing to do, for, just as surely as the sun shines, there will be other seasons of severity and hardships when the cost of living will be at its height. A few dimes hoarded now and then and placed in some safe financial repository where it may draw interest, will go a long way indeed toward lessening privations and sufferings whenever the hard days of the cold season comes. Now, is always the time to start a savings' account. Procrastination gets in its work more effectively in matters pertaining to one's finances than in almost anything else. Putting off till "tomorrow" to begin to save, creates a habit which is indeed hard to down when there is a strong desire to do something which does not admit of delay. Our advice to our people then is, not to wait until next winter to begin to save for coming hardships, but to begin now. "Let us cut our cloth to our measure" by not throwing away our hard earned money in the over indulgence on our part in the many and unnecessary frivolities with which the spring and summer season are infested. Mr. C. Thad Toomer Surprised Mr. C. Thad Toomer was very pleasantly surprised on last Monday night by the members of the Fox Club of which he is secretary.

You can understand ‘he conduct of the knife gtinder who biows his horn or rings,his bell under your window, regardless of the rest or work he may be interrupting, just a3 you can excuse the yells of the itinerant vegetable or fruit vender who cries bis wares raucously along the street. ‘These noise producers are working for their living, amd their calls and clangings are part of their stock in trade. Without them you would not know their goods were offered for aale. You can even tolerate the banging of the beaters on rugs on the roof or In the back yard, because you know the cleaning must be done, and it ts being performed in the only locality that pre- sents itself. But what good ig gained by the un- necessary honkings of an automobile which wake the echoes of your street at midnight? Why should the collec- tors of ashes and garbago make un- Recessary noise in the discharge of their duties? And to come within the house and in touch with those who are supposed to have gentler tendencies, why should persons of Ike nature with ourselves keep ao called music—elther vocal or instrumental—going at an hour when ordinary, every day folk are supposed to be asleep? Rings For Bridegroome. & A custom rather strictly observed in Germany is the exchange of rings by bride and bridegroom on the wedding day, and it is a yery pretty idea. “Why shouldn't the man have some outward symbol to show that he is married as well as a woman?” asked a little dark eyed bride who had used this double ring ceremony. And why not? Vers few brides now select a plain diamond solitaire that was for so long cohsidered the only proper en- gagement token; the larger tho stone the more the girl loved to flash it Now a diamond is used if the girl wishes it, but it 4s cut and set in some individuat manner and is made with the promise that no duplicates will be sold. Some new rings are being shown which on first appearance seem to be yery handsome seals, but on closer ex- amination show that they are to be di- vided when the “time” comes into two separate rings. They are made to or- der, as is much of the jewelry worn nowadays by those who wish to have exclusive Stylps in thelr articles of adornment. Table Manners. When we consider good table man- ners in a general way there is one point that is emphasized. Quietness without baste 1s the thing that will do more than anything to give attractive table manners. Any one can be quiet and dignified. It may be a difficult thing to master the uses of the differ- ent utensils and to keep in mind the order of courses; it may seem a stu- pendous task to review the different positions and ways of eating different foods, but it is the easlest thing in the world to do things in a quiet man- ner. They are the essence of good table manners, and on this foundation it 4s possible to build an intricate structure that will take you through any formal dinner in satisfaction. Dancing Etiauette. “When dancing with a young girl,” asks a perplexed masculine reader, “1s it necessary to continue dancing with her—perbaps three or four dances— until some other man relieves you by asking the giri for a dance? Is there no way in which a man can gracefully get away?” ‘The'nice thing to do is to dance with the girl until another partner comes to claim her, but in case you havo the next dance with another girl you must make your excuses gracefully, explain: ing the situation, and then go to elaim the other girl. If you are free for the succeeding dances yon should remain with your first partner until some one else relieves you of this duty. Street Introductions. An introduction 1s not always neces- sary when people meet on @ public street, but it prevents 2 momentary embarrassment to say, “Miss O., Mr. AL” Such an introduction need not be considered a basis for a future ac- quaintance. Merely to bow and smile In acknowledgment, with ‘a pleasant word, ig all that is necessary. and ff the Iady does not choose to recognize the man in meeting bim afterward that is her privilege. | Consideration For Servants. Respect your maid’s privacy. Make {t a point always to knock on ber door before entering, and If yout have occa: ston to go to the Kitchen In the even- Ing always knock there too. If prac tieable do not disturb ber at night. Some women have 2 most pernicious habit of getting their maids up to un- huok clothes, while others will remem- ber fn the small hours a number of orders that should have been given at dinner time. - st (eae Shes me a PR es . , ‘ oa ee) ’ , : an bee ees x eee Re re ee Lo af BOE ONLY $7.00.

Text of the Lesson, Luke xiv, 7-24. Memory Versae, 13, 14-Golden Text, Luke xiv, 11-Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Staarna. As He ate bread in the house of one of the chief. Pharisees on the Sabbath day. He not only healed a man who had the dropy (xiv, 1-6), but He had a special message for the guests and then for the host and later for one of the guests who had made an interesting remark. Oh, how He did live before God and seek the souls of men, fearing no one's frown and desiring no one's favor. To the guests He taught humility, for then as now there was often a desire for the best place that could be obtained. Humility is a rare virtue, and few there seem to be who in lowliness of mind esteem others better than themselves (Phil. ii, 3). There was only one who was perfect in humility and lowliness, the speaker on this occasion, and He could truly say, "I am meek and lowly in heart" (Matt. xi, 20). Exalting self is like antichrist (Dan. xi, 30; II Tessh, ii, 4; Rev. xii, 5, 6), but renouncing self is Christlike, for He made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant (Phil. ii, 7, 8). See also verse 11 of our lesson. His message to His host was in reference to a future rather than a present recompense. How common it is to be kind to those who can return the kindness, to invite those to enjoy our hospitality who can return the invitation. How much of social life is filled up in this way? This may seem all right for those who know no better way. But when in church work, supposed to be the Lord's work, people net as if money could be obtained only by giving a present equivalent in the form of a lecture or an entertainment or something to eat, does it not all seem contrary to our Lord's admonition to this host? My own intense conviction is that giving or living only for a present equivalent is all wrong, and I have proved in a ministry of over thirty years that the love of Christ and the need of those who never heard of it will constrain people to give freely to help make Him known and gladly await the recompense in His kingdom in connection with the resurrection of the just. It does not appear from the Scriptures that believers are rewarded at death, though it is a common saying that he or she has gone to his or her reward. The truth concerning the dead in Christ is that they rest from their labors and their works do follow them, but rewards are promised only at His coming again (Rev. xiv, 13; xxll, 12; I Pet. v, 4). Here is a plain reference in verse 14 of our lesson to the difference between the resurrection of the just and the unjust. That there shall be both is written in Acts xxiv, 15, but that there shall be a thousand years between them is just as plainly written in Rev. xx, 5, 6. The hour of John v, 28, does not conflict with this, for the hour of John v, 25, has already lasted nearly 1,000 years, and that of verses 25, 29, may easily cover the two resurrections at the beginning and end of the thousand years. His mention of the resurrection of the just seems to have led one of the guests to remark, "Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God" (verse 15), which he evidently associated with the resurrection. This led our Lord to speak of the great supper and of the way the invitations were treated and of the excuses which men will make rather than accept the invitation. He seems to reply to the remark of the guest that men are more interested in property and in earthly enjoyments than in the things of the kingdom. The things unseen and eternal are so unreal to most people that things seen and temporal hold all their attention. Contrast the way of the believers in II Cor. iv. 17, 18. The redemption which leads to the kingdom is described as a great supper fully prepared, and the invited ones have only to come and enjoy it. It is probable that the invitations of this chief of the Pharisees, in whose house they were, had all been accepted eagerly, but the invitations of which our Lord spoke were treated far otherwise. The great salvation has been fully prepared by the life and death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus, nothing can be added to it; but, oh, the cost of all it to the Father who gave His only Son and to the Son who gave Himself! All and all is offered freely, for "the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." "We are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus" (Rom. vl. 23, R. V. ill. 24) How often we hear Him say, "Come" from Gen. vl. 1 to Rev. xxii. 17, notably in Isa. l. 18; Matt. xl. 28, and how frivolous are men's excuses when contended with the importance of the salvation offered them and the glory of his kingdom. I have board of one man who was led to accept the great invitation by the remark, "There will be no excuses at the end of God." Meantime, the devil, the end of this world, is busily blinding the minds of them which believe not in the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should line unto them (II Cor. 19.3). For the word stands "Whose ever with him take the water of life freely." INSURANCE GEOGRA When is a man most confused When he misaes his train. When are the people most un safe?

If you want to sell a big bill of goods—watch the barometer. Such is the advice of Dr. Colin A. Scott, professor of psychology in the Boston normal school. The barometer, he says, is as sure an indicator of persons' minds as it is of the weather. You'll find them active and up and doing with the barometer high; gloomy and irritable with the barometer low.-Boston Post. Putting Them at Ease: Precedence is not the only puzzle in official and social circles in any city, but to say the right thing at the right time is equally necessary. "To make mistakes in speech is suicidal," said a state department official recently. "Let it not be as in the case of Mrs. Brody, who gave a party, and when all the guests were in the parlor she entered with a beaming smile and said: "Do make yourselves at home, ladies. I'm at home myself, and I wish you all were."—Washington Star. Said the Owl to the Quail A quail, being shot at by a hunter and narrowly escaping with her life, tremblingly took refuge in a thicket. From a tree overhead an owl looked down upon her sarciically. "You are very silly," he remarked, "to allow yourself to be hunted so when you have the means of defense ready at your hand. If you were to stop killing the insects that pray on the wheat and the corn man would speedily perish of starvation." The quail thanked him civilly for his advice. "However, if you don't mind," said she, "I think I prefer to go on doing what is so evidently my duty, let others do as they may."—Barn and Breeds. A QUERY ABOUT ONIONS. A QUERY ABOUT ONIONS. A reader makes inquiry as to the matter of raising onions. The land intended for the patch should be as free as possible from weed seeds, and it is better if it was plowed last fall. Onions are heavy feeders on soil fertility and for this reason the land on which they are to be grown should be rich. As soon as the frost is out the land should be given a shallow plowing or thorough disking and then harrowed and floated. The seeder should be regulated so as to put the rows about sixteen inches apart, while the seed gauge should be set so as to sow the seed from an inch to and an inch and a half apart. Before deciding how thick to sow the seed it is well to test its germinating power. In his own experience the writer has found it more satisfactory to sow the seed a bit too thick and thin when the plants were three or four inches high, than to sow sparingly and have from half to two-thirds of a stand, for it takes just as much time to cultivate a part of a crop as a full crop. One should start the cultivation as soon as the silk green rows can be seen, and this should be kept up at frequent intervals and particularly following heavy rains, and with soil that is likely to pack and bake. Where the soil is none too rich it may be well to apply fertilizers. For this purpose a mixture of 25 pounds of tankage, 860 of bone meal and 325 pounds of murrate of potash has been found to give very satisfactory results. This should be supplied with the drill close to the seed rows. Some onion growers give a second application when the plants are about six inches high, the fertilizer being scattered close to the rows. In deciding what varieties to grow, one should be guided by the preference prevailing in the markets one would be most likely to ship to. One of the most popular varieties is the Red Globe, and it not only fetches a good price, but is a good keeper and is prized by the housewives who use them. For the northern portions of the country, where there is danger of early September frosts, every effort should be made to get the seed in as soon as the condition of the soil will permit so as to insure early ripening. A dollar or two, more or less, in the initial cost of the seed is a small matter in a crop that will gross between $200 and $300. Hence none but the best seed should be used. If it is good and has strong germinating power three pounds will be ample to sow an acre of land: CARING FOR BROOD SOWS. CARING FOR BROOD SOWS The Kansas experiment station has been carrying on some experiments during the past three years along the line of the care of brood sows that should be of definite practical value to hog raisers everywhere. In 1911 from thirty-three of the station sows litters averaging 7.6 per sow were raised. The next year twelve Duroc-Jersey sows weaned ninety-six plugs. Last year an equally good showing was made from a still larger number of sows. The care of the litters was started when the sows were bred. The mothers were forced to take a moderate amount of exercise every day during the period of gestation. The feeds given during the period included corn, shorts, wheat bran, tankage, oilmeal and alfalfa hay. For the early portion of the period the ration consisted of a little corn, some shorts and tankage and all the alfalfa hay the sows would eat. Bran and oilmeal were added the last few weeks. The aim in feeding was to bring to the sows to farrowing time in a laxative condition and in good thrift and medium flesh. WAS HE WORTH IT? Farmers of those conservative sections where the idea seems to be deeply rooted that the way their grandfathers did agriculturally is plenty good enough today and where no effort is made to hide contempt for the county agricultural expert should be interested in the following record of ten months' work of such a demonstrator who is in the employ of Merrick county' Neb. In the period mentioned he traveled 9,040 miles in answering the calls for assistance which he received from the farmers, in the course of which travel he visited 543 farms. He had 478 callers on Saturdays in his office, had 2,000 telephone talks, received 200 letters from his employers, the farmers, wrote them 800 letters and spoke at twenty meetings, at which 2,000 farmers gathered. In addition to numerous field demonstrations he vaccinated over 2,000 hogs, valued at $17,000, among which there was a loss from cholera of but 3 per cent. He spotted forty cows that were of the star boarder stripe and weren't giving milk enough to pay for their feed. Did this man earn his salary? POOR SEED CORN AGAIN. H. M. Cottrell, agricultural commissioner of the Rock Island lines, has lately sent out warnings to the farmers of the middle western states that the seed corn that is available in much of the territory tributary to this system is of very low grade this year. He states that there is very little good seed in southern Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and northwestern Texas, seed from last year's crop being unsafe to plant and much of the 1912 crop showing poor germination. He further warns farmers against buying seed corn outside of their own counties and particularly from any considerable distance, as a reduced yield is almost sure to result. J. C. Trigg SPRING BLOUSES. They Come In Many Lurid New Colors. CHARMING NET BLOUSE. There is nothing prettier with a new skirt than a blouse of either the same color in fine ninon or silk or satin one of contrasting shades. The newest French made blouses are nearly all unlined, being as loosely fitted as possible, with ample fullness under the arms that quite do away with that tendency to wear badly or split that was the great drawback with the Magyar style when it first came in to fashion. The colors used are many of them lurid in the extreme, royal purple, geranium and tangerine being the favorites, the blouses being carried out in charmeuse or a thick quality crepe de chine, trimmed very simply at neck and wrist with narrow bands of velvet. Very chic little blouses for summer wear are of net. Illustrated here is a blouse of embroidered net which is worn with a dainty gown of taffeta. The founced tunic, trimmed with buttons, gives an exceedingly attractive appearance to the simple little frock. LAUNDRY BOX. A Pedestal Shaped Affair That Will Fit Conveniently Into Corners. Better far than the laundry bag is the pedestal shaped box. It may be as elegant looking as its owner elects to have it and stand about the dressing room on an equality with the other necessary pieces of furniture. The pedestal may be made of the most ordinary wood, since invariably it is covered with cretonne, worsted brocade or any thick, closely woven window draping material. It should be neatly finished at the edges with a gimp or a fancy braid. Inside it may be lined with white ollcloth, although that is not necessary, and it has a flat lid which, when closed, makes a convenient table top. This laundry box fits into a corner, out of the way. It may stand beside the bed, as it is precisely the right size to hold a night light, a book and a carafe. Care of the Exps The day comes to one and all-provided we live the allotted span—when our sight has to be studied. Women should do all work, such as sewing, reading and writing, by daylight as far as possible. Lamps give the best artificial light. The lamp should be placed at your left hand. Do not use the eyes directly after a meal. Bathe them morning and night in cold water to strengthen the muscles. When they feel especially tired and strained use water as hot as can comfortably be borne. With a soft sponge bathe them for several minutes, then give a dash of cold water. Special Polishing Cloths. Special containers Dissolve half a cupful of shredded white soap in a cupful of hot water. When it is cold, stir into it three large tablespoonfuls of powdered whitening and a few drops of ammonia. Beat it into a smooth jelly. Have ready some suitable pieces of old soft flannel or table linen. Put these in the jelly and allow them to absorb as much of it as possible. Squeeze them slightly and let them dry. A quick rub with one of these cloths will remove all tarnish from silver and will give it a brilliant polish. Cleaning Solid Silver The best way to keep silver-real silver, not plate-always up to the mark is to wash it daily in hot water to which a little soap and a small piece of soda have been added. Dry thoroughly, and while still hot polish it with a soft leather. About once a week use a little plate-powder for polishing. FLOUR MILL ON FARM. How One North Dakota Man Gota Greatest Return From Crops. A North Dakota realizes the maximum returns from his wheat and rye crops by converting these grains into flour which he sells at $3 a hundred pounds. In his locality it was practically impossible to obtain good rye, graham or whole wheat flour, so this farmer started growing and grinding his own grain. As he became proficient the quality of the flour improved until finally his neighbors were annually demanding his surplus at handsome prices. This keen demand for high quality flour increased until he decided that it would pay him to equip a small mill thoroughly and to embark in the business on a commercial scale. A stream of considerable velocity flows through his farm and furnishes the power with which to operate his machinery. He equipped his miniature mill with a crusher, a grinder, a cleaner and an elevator. The income from his flour business during the first two years paid for his plant and equipment and yielded him a good net profit. This miller eliminates all the charges that usually go to the middle man. He annually raises about eighty acres of wheat and thirty-five acres of rye. Some of this grain he sells as a cash crop on account of inadequate him room in which to store it, but more than half of the crop is converted into flour to be used for human food. A gasoline engine is also maintained as a reserve source of power in case the water power should give out. The marketable flour is neatly sacked and sells for $3 a hundred pounds. Annually the rye and wheat have a farm value of about 60 and $2 cents a bushel respectively where they are sold as cash crops. At a slight expense as regards time and labor this shrewd farmer converts his raw wheat and rye—that in the bulk are worth approximately $1.07 and $1.10 a hundred pounds—into excellent flour that sells for $3 a hundred pounds. Yearly this progressive farmer is gaining an attractive income from his milling operations, since he also grinds grain for his neighbors. This labor in nowise interferes with his farm work, as the greater share of the mill work is done during the period when field work is relatively slack—Country Gentleman. A Handy Harness Box. The next time a new set of harness is bought take a box and fit it with doors so that it may be closed tight. Hang the harness in this when it is not in use. It is a surprise how long it will look neat and stay in good shape. when cared for in this manner. A box 2 by 3 by 4 feet high is a good size. Screw harness hooks will make good hangers. A little box may be attnched to the inside of the door for holding combs, brush, etc. Plowing In Winter. There is a diversity of opinion as to the advisability of plowing in winter. It is generally conceded, however, that sod lands should be plowed in the winter season. The freezing and thawing of the soil put it in much better condition than it can be put by the plow and harrow after the spring has opened. Winter plowing also destroys many insects that would damage crops if they were allowed to live. There will be much more moisture laid up in the soil and saved for the use of the growing crop the next year if the plowing is done during the winter season than there would be if it were left until spring. The capillary connection with the subshell will have time to be renewed if the plowing is done early. The South Atlantic Barber shop Headquarters for barber supplies shoe polish.

For instance, in a number of cases where the seeding of alfaifa failed witbout inoculation, the mere ad- dition of 300 pounds per acre of, soll from an alfalfa field or from a sweet clover patch brought success. After fnoculation the soll produced a fine growth of alfalfa. In other sections of the state, particularly in the south- central, the application of from 1,500 pounds to 3,000 pounds of Iime per acre brought success when various other trials without me failed. Perhaps the most important thing in securing a stand of alfalfa is the Uberal, use of manure even on soils above the average in fertility. Its ap- plication before plowing has increased Bes OS SS eo ARERR rea BA OS ee SRE SS ee a es ee a SRS ee : eos eae j Zf se ie Fs Ra Ran inne gD BS a Os RED CEL the yield of alfalfa notably. On all solls below the average the use of manure has been absolutely essential to securing a satisfactory stand and yield In buying alfalfa seed, a9 in buying seed for other crops, the highest priced seed is usually the cheapest.

Spring seeding may be clipped once or twice when necessary to keep down the weeds, but a good growth should cover the ground when freezing weather comes on in the fall. UsualJy the alfalfa should be cut ‘when about one-tenth of the heads are fn bloom, which generally is early in June, as this is about the timo that the new shoots begin to appear at the bottom of the stalk. Much has been said regarding the dificulty of handling and curing the first cutting, but reports ‘from those men In Iowa who have the largest acreages state that alfalfa is not more dificalt to cure than red clover. ‘A number bave.said that !t is easier to care. Various methods of curing have beer used successfully. In dry, sunny weather alfalfa cut, one afterncon may be raked the fol- lowing day, pot !n bunches and much of it stacked the same day. It ts important that as few of the leaves as possible be lost. In order to save the leaves many growers rake the alfalfa into windrows as goon as it has wilted and before tho leaves are ary, bunch the hay with # rake as soon as dry enough to stack and hacl: it at once. This method also eliminates the labor of cocking the hay, a feature which has been found desirable by = number of men who handle large acre ages. ‘Where one has much alfalfa hay to cure a side delivery rake will be found ‘to be of the greatest value. ‘Where the hay fs to be cocked it is cat late in the afternoon or the morn- ing, raked before dinner and put in cocks in the afternoon.

For instance, while I urye the advis- ability of growing fruit in localities | which have the advantage of good matkets, I should dislike to see farm- ers in the central states or anywhere else devote themselves to this single industry. 'That would be about as fool- ish as exclusive grain raising or dairy ing. ‘The orchard belongs in:a schéme of mixed farming, together with poul- try and hogs. Important facts for fruit growers are that orchard Jand may be made to pay doublé and the fertility of the so!l ‘maintained without extraordinary ef- fort. While the trees are coming to maturity dand earns nothing for five or six years unless there fs a plan of veg- etable raising, when u return of $100 an acre is easily secured and the soll 13 benefited by the necessary cultiva- tion. Unless such a system of cropping 4g established a nonbearing orcbard 4s apt to be neglected, and this results in waste of tine, investinent and land. ‘Thecultivation of vegetables or small fruit in au orchard fs therefore for the purpose of »ecuring immediate profits and keeping up the quality of the soll. It goes further than this, however, for it makes the land return a living in- come even in unfavorable fruit sca- sons, hen late frosts, insect pests or other destructive agencies hare spoiled the apples, pears, plums and cherries. Apple and cherry trees should be planted thirty feet apart; plum, pear and peach trees twenty to twenty-five feet apart. The trees nged to stand in straight rows to permit the free use of a horse cultivator in the vesetable and berry patches. One of the most common mistakes in farming is to plant trees too near together. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are necessary for the fertilization of fruit trees and plants in general. Ni- trogen can be obtalned in stable ma- nure, but the principal source 1s air, and Wwe may obtain it by growing legumes. Vegetable gardening carried on with the aid of barnyard. manure fs an excellent treatment for orchard land. Phosphorus may be obtained by the use of raw rock phosphate or bone- meal. Potassium Is contained In large amounts in our ordinary soils in a more or less unavailable state. To get more potassium in euch a shape that the plants cnn use it we can either apply soluble potassium saits or un- lock that which is already present in abundance. Experiments have shown that it does not pay to apply potas- sium to ordinary solls, provided decay- ing organic matter in the form of ma- nure or cover cfops is worked into the soll. ‘The decaying organic matter will Uberate the potassium, It may not be generally known that apples are about as hard on land as wheat or corn, except they do not take from it as much phosphorus. A 425 bushel apple crop will remove from the soll about the same amount of nitro- gen and potassium and half as much phosphoros as fifty bushels of com or twenty-five bushels of wheat. ‘There- fore a thorough system of gardening not only makes the orchard land do double duty, but restores the soll for tiltty. If for any reason gardening cannot be carried on in a thorough way in an orchard I should recommend lezumes in place bf manure as the source of nitrogenous organic matter. It is shown that a cheap way to grow legumes Is to apply ground limestone and rock phosphate. The cost of this treatment would not exceed $2 per acro per year, which should not geriously POTATO NOTES. ‘To secure an early supply of new po- tatoes next season plant the tubers of any good early variety in pots and start them in the house.

This follows lying down on a damp stable floor or on the cold ground outade: With good cows as high priced as they are, it is shortsighted in the extreme te ‘allow such preventable ‘cases of caked udder. iii ‘The consensus of opinion seems to be that it is a risky proposition using coal tar as a material for painting the wounds of young frult frees. In a number of instances which the writer tas run across lately trees so treated @ year ago are practically done for wow, and this is particularly true where the coal tar was used freely and the trunks completely covered with it. That it is a very easy matter for so called experts to get mixed up in the scenery was proven in a rather tragic manner the other day when a woman who claimed to have unerring Judg- ment in the matter of distinguishing between poisonous and edible vartetles of mushrooms died shortly after par- taking of some of the “larmless” mmsbrooms. Folks who don’t have a keener knowledge than this woman shoyld feed the cooked product to the cat Ist or let the stuff alone entirely. Apple sauce cake is fnuch enjoyed by those who have eaten it. The follow- ing recipe is one that is published by a lady at Black River Falls, Wis.: One egg, well beaten; one cupful of granu- Jated sugar, one and one-half cupfals of sweetened apple sauce, one scant hhalf cupful of lard, one teaspoonful each of cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg and one and one-quarter teaspoonfuls of soda, dissolved in apple savce; one cupful of seedless raisins and two cup- fals of flour. Beat well and bake in moder:ite oven. Poor condition in aged horses as a result of a bad condition of the teeth is 2 common thing. Occasienally the same t"Ing is responsible for unthrifty conditivn in 2 growing hog. The writ- er remembers the case of two hogs that wie of the same age and ate out of the: nne trough, yet one flourished emt th» other was thin and poor. When cornmeal was substituted for sl “fc! corm the runt began to pick up Suave” itely. ‘The natural inference tron: : is was that its teeth were out of whack. Scores of young orchards are going “15 T every ear because the owners thu they can work the tracts as a calf pasture proposition before the trees et toa bearing age. ‘he two things don’t go together, and if the calves ara to have the right of way it would be better to quit monkeying with the trees and take a grub hoe and dig them cut. If, on the other hand, they are counted on to become something be- yond sticks for the calves to scratch thelr ‘backs on the bovines would bet- ter be pastured elsewhere. ‘The old, old law of growth, “To them that hath shall be given,” holds just as truly in the feed lot and hog pen as it does among trees in the forest, among men in business or in the case of the individual in the building up of physical, mental and moral forces. Because of this fact precautions should be taken to see that the weaklings have a place where they can get the fed they need unmolested by older and stronger animals. Unless such ald is given one might just about as well imock such ronts on the head. The first step that should be follow- ed in restoring the fertility of a tun- down farm should be to increase the number of.animals kept on the place. Cattle, sheep and hogs are better than none, but tke dairy cow is the best fertility restorer of the lot. Every ef- fort should be made to increase the manurial product of the farm. Anoth- er aid is to grow the clovers as green manures. After this a crop should be raised which will require clean culti- vation and dispose of the weeds. Clo- ver should be sowed again and plowed under or may be used as a meadow for one season and then plowed under with a cultivated crop following. As the soll becories richer the clover crop will not have to be produced so often. Hog feeding experiments which have been carried on by the Iowa experi- ment station during the past six years seem to prove conclusively that as a general rule the time spent in grind- ing corn for hogs is worse than wast- ed. From weaning time until tate tn the fall lots of spring pigs on pasture ‘wero fed rations of dry ear corn, soak- ed (shelled) corn, dry cornmeal and soaked cornmeaj: The amount of feed required for 100 pounds of gain in the ‘<ifferent lots was as follows Dry ear corn, 440 pounds; soaked shelled corn, 468 pounds; dry cornmeal, 546 pounds; soaked cornmeal, 520 pounds. In mak- Ing rapXX gain the dry ear com was also the moateconomical with the pigs up to 200 founds in weight. For pigs larger than this the cheapest gains ‘were mage on soaked gheHed corn. ee husband EDWARD J.
