RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.

The English revisers Of the New
Testament have carried their revision
TO the end OF the third chapter of the
Epistle to the Colossians.
The annual meeting of the Amer
lean Board OF Commissioners for For
elgn Missions will be held in Hartford
the first Tuesday in October.
The course of lectures on agricult-
ure offered to farmers last year by the
University of Vermont did not prove
successful. The academic and scen-
tiiic departments have some ninety
students, fifteen of whom are women,
one-third of their number being in the
senior class.
Pope Plus TX. was born the 18th
of May, 1892. He was ordained priest
the 18th of April, 1919. He was con
secrated Bishop the 2lst of May, 1927.
He was created Cardinal Dec. Ia,
1910, and elected Sovereign PontiIt
June rs, 1916. He is now in the thir-
tieth year of his Pontiticate, and the
eighty-fourth year of his age.
The General Association of the
Congregational churches of Massachu-
sets has been in session recently in
Lowell. The number of churches re-
ported is 5l9-an increase during the
year of two only--and of members
S5,6I7, gain of 1900. The benevo-
lent contributions amount to S4O7, 900,
which is about 50, 900 less than the col
lections of last year.
The General Convention of the
Congregational churches of Vermont
was held recently at Barton. 1t was
stated in the Centennial sermon that
the oldest Congregational church in the
State was organized at Bennington in
1862. The increase of members in the
past year was 400. The l6Tth meet
ing of the General Association of Con
necticut began at Norwalk, June 20.
The Rev. DR.. O. +. Daggett was chosen
Moderator. The Missionary Society Of
Connecticut which was originally
formed for the evangelization of
Indians, has expended, since l7oS,
$3.50, pa, and has Il permanent fund OF
! $4,000.
-Thirty-three Chinese students re-
Gently arrived at San Francisco, on
their way to Hartford, Conn. Thirty
of them are sent over at the expense

from ten to fourteen years. They
were chosen from the best classes by
competitive examination. They are to
remain in this country fifteen years
and to be thoroughly taught in lite
nature and the sciences. Within the
past three years ninety students have
come from the Flowery Kingdom to be
educated, and it is expected that the

"IF We KNEW"

II we knew. when walking thoughtless
Through the crowded. noisy way,
That some pearl of wondrous whiteness
Close beside our pathway lay,
Wewould pause, when now We hasten.
We would often look around.
Lest our careless feet should trample
Some rare jewel in the ground.
II we knew what forms were fainting
For the shade which we shonld fling;
II we knew what lips Were parching
For the water we should bring.
We would haste with eager footsteps,
We would work with willing hauds,
Bearing cups OF cooling water,
Planting rows of shading palms.
( we knew. when friends around us,
Closely press to say goodbye,
Which among the lips that kiss us
First should meath the daisies lie,
We would clasp our arms around them,
Looking on them thro' our tears,
Tender words of love eternal
We would whisper in their ears.
If we knew what lives were darkened
BY some thoughtless word OF ours,
Which had ever lain among them,
Like the frost among the flowers
Oh. with what sincere repentings,
With what anguish of regret.
While our eyes were overlooking,
Would we cry, forgive-lorgct!
If we knew-alasl and do we
Ever care or seek to know
Whether bitter herbs or roses
In our neighbours garden grow?
God forgive us, lest hereafter
our hearts break to hear Him say,
Careless child, never knew you,
From My presence fee away

Alaskan Idols.

THE Alaskan collection has been
very much increased lately. Our new
fellow-citi2ens have certainly contrib
uted to the Exhibition some of the
most comical and grotesque features.
A monster boat, ornamented with
hideous figures Of men and savage
demi-gods. stretches its huge length
along the floor in one OF the passage
ways, and the door-posts--some of
which | have before described--now
ornament dozen corners. Many Of
these are colossal, and show giant de-
tiles crunching animals in their gi-
gantic jaws, or grinning horribly rs
they sit crouched upon their massive
launches. The colors with which
these fantastic creations of savage iIn-
agination are decked are generally
blacks, reds, green's, and blues. The
entrances to the editices over which
these great posts tower are usually IN
significant and dirty. The houses are
covered with scrawls which represent
nothing but rude fancy run riot. One
of them, which comes from the Haidah
Indians at Fort Sampson in British
Columbia, has the sacred bird perching
above it. The Alaskans are fond of
elevating this sacred bird, also, on
their posts, and we are shown one
which has a host Of savages depicted
as clinging to its wings Tradition
hath it that a great mystical bird
brought the ancestors of the present
tribes over from one continent to the
other. Some of the carvings contrib
uted by the Aleutian Islanders show
that those people are fond of carica-
ture; the images which they have
made Of Russian sailors and soldiers
are very laughable. An idol which
was brought from village Of the Ma
kah Indians in Washington Territory
is very striking. But none of these
Indian gods are majestic. They are
all either wild, ferociOus, grotesque, or
simply comical. There is no inspira-
ton, no uplift in them. They are
gross, vulgar, and earthy.-Phjiddet-

THE case of the young Sunday
school girl who successfully collected
! 900, 900 old postage stamps to secure
a life annuity from gentleman OF
wealth in this city has attracted much
attention. 1t IS interesting to know
that the offer. which was probably
made in Jest, has been faithfully ear
ried out. and the necessary papers and
securities have already been deposited
in the Bank of North America to Sc
cure the promised annuity, and the
young Lady whose family IS IN moder-
ate circumstances is amply provided
for during the rest of her life. The
prize was fairly earned, and has been
most literally bestowed.-N. Y. Cor.

THE New JERSEY POTATO

THE NEW JERSEY POTATO CROP
The Trenton (N.J.) Gazette says: There
seems to be no reason to doubt that the New
Jersey potato crop will this year be certain
and total failure. The Colorado bugs have
already appeared in myriads all over the
State, and are everywhere prosecuting their
destructive onslaught upon the young potato
plants. They never before appeared so
early as this, nor in such countless numbers.
This strange and alarming Rocky Mountain
pest puts in an appearance at the very begin
ming of the potato season. and in such vast
hordes as to make il seem hopeless to attcmp;
to contend with them. II probably is hope
less undertaking. They are everywhere at
lacking the potato plants, and even the roots
and young tubers, in swarming hosts, and
with voracious energy that disheariening
We hear of their destructive ravages in every
part of the State and there seems 10 be nc
doubt that they will continue the campaign
by successive broods, all the summer

FARM AND GARDEN.

A Massachusetts agriculturist says: II do
believe In early cut grass, a. the same time
mink there is such a thing as cutting too
early. l think grass needs to mature, the
same as do other crops. Take for example
me man who raises garden vegetables, If he
should carry them TO market but half grown,
lie probably would not go but once. Take
pears, for instance; everybody knows how
much better full grown pear is Than one
half grown. The successful vegetable grow.
er watches his different crops and gathers
them at the right time, so does the man with
his different kinds Of grass. Glover wants 10
be cut before herds grass, herds-grass before
red-top, and so on through the whole cata.
logue of grasses. 1t should be our ann to do
everything at the right time, taking the Scrip
lure rule for our guide, a time for everything.
Next, the curing Of grass. NO one can give
any direct rule about that / am satisfied
Many writers on the subject have advocated
putting it in the barn too green. The herbs
that we cut are put in our garrets green, but
how are they put In? Why, they are put in
small bundles and hung up to dry the same
as tobacco, so that air can circulate between
every plant, and we all know that if we put
our herbs or tobacco in like hay, il would all
rot. Just so with hay, if we had room plenty
we could put it in green, and scatter it about
so that the air could circulate through it, and
il would cure all right, but when we have to
put ten loads in one by one the same day, it
must be dried or we Will have smoky hay in
the spring, and the buyers will complain
more of that than early cut hay"
The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1876-06-17

Now, while the grass is growing, see that
the barns are IN good condition for receiving
and preserving the hay, which will soon be
ready for the sythe. 1t is poor economy to
store hay in barns that leak. And while the
weather is warm so that the stock can lie out
doors, the stables should be put in thorough
repair for the winter. Do not let stable man
ure go to waste at any time 1t would be bet.
ter to keep the cattle in the stable nights,
most of the time, using enough dry muck,
loam or other absorbents to save all the urine,
as this is the most valuable portion of the
excrements. Many farmers count the ma.
nure made in summer fully equal to that
made In winter, because, by free use OF alb
sorbents, all may be saved, y pile of good
barn yard compost made in summer. and
spread on good meadows, after haying, will
pay well for all the labor required in saving
and applying it.

Holstein Cows.

Holstein COWS are craving IN popularity.
The Society of Shakers, at West Pittsfield
Mass, report as follows: One COW, seven
years old in the spriHg of 1875, calving
March II, has given, on an average, twenty
quarts per day to the present date. tested
milk in butter from the 18th of June for sew
en- days, during which time she made four
teen pounds Of nice butter, with no extra
:sed and no more than a common pasture.
The second COW, six years old in the spring
of 1875, calved September 22d, 1915, and after
four or five days her milk was reserved by
itself and set for cream, after letting the cali
suck what it would three times day. From
the surplus of seven days, found on weigh
ing the butter, thirteen pounds of a fine arti-
Gle, and in total quantity per day, after three
weeks of the time of the calf sucking, she
had averaged from twenty four to twenty.siX
quarts per day Of milk. November gath,
1874, bought a thoroughbred imported Hol-
stein bull, one year old past, and his gain in
ten months is four hundred pounds, making
an average of forty pounds month, and not
on high feed They are a fine growing stock
large, good feeders, and / can say with all
freedom, tina: they are IN my estimation the
best for market, mixers, butter, cheese, oxen
and beef of any thoroughbred stock now
known IN the country. I should be pleased

who may be pleased TO call.

Vermont agriculturalist commends the
following recipe as invaluable for the cure of
"scours" in stock: The animals should be
attended to as soon as the disease develops
itself, as 1t may become chronic and incura-
bic by neglect. Prepare a small quantity of
rennet, similar to that prepared for cheese
making, give it 10 the animal with milk, put
in the rennet when ready TO administer the
medicine. A tablespoonful for a lamb, and
half teacupful for a calf; increase the

A correspondent of the Ohio Farmer states
that he kept plum tree from curculios by
sprinkling the ground under the tree with
corn meal. This induced the chickens to
scratch and search. The meal was strewn
every morning from the time the trees bios.
somed until the fruit was large enough to
be out of danger. The consequence was that
the fowls picked up the curculiOs with the
meal, anG the tree being saved from the pres
