Agricultural Bureau.

General lie Due, commissioner of
agriculture, proposes 70 establish a sys-
TEN Of inquiry in various sections of the
country, with view to the propagation
of plants adapted to certain localities, but
hitherto not cultivated in those sections.
He also proposes to adopt measures to
stimulate as far as practicable, through
the agency of the department cultivation
OF those agricultural products for which
we are now largely indebted TO foreign
countries. The reports thus far received
by the commissioner show that the
climate and soil of the Pacific coast are
admirably adapted to the cultivation of
teas. He also finds that sugar though
now cultivated in the s)uth only, might
be produced elsewhere by proper manage
ment. A liberal series Of experiments in
production is proposed through the co.
operation of agriculturists, for the pur-
pose of producing articles which are of
commercial value, and are now largely
imported. He wants information as TO
the character of the crops, the possibili-
ties of the soil and climate, and any data
of interest, and suggestions as TO the
peculiar wants OF each locality. " Tmf,

We call the church the house OF

expressly for that purpose, and for the

God, and for the administration of the
sacraments. But the church is tor public
prayer. In another way, every one Of our
houses ought to be house of
prayer. There ought to be among
us as mauy houses of prayer
as there are dwelling houses. Nay,
more, for some Of our houses are coupled
by several families, and each separate
part of the house should be house OF
prayer.
Wherever family lives there should
be house Of prayer, however humble
the family, however small the house.
Every father of family is the proper
head of his own house, and as such should
conduct the family prayer, merning and
evening. In some cases where a man
has to be at work very early in the.morn
ing or very late at night, this may not
be possible. In such cases let the wife

. Iuaman NeighbOrs.

Which Of these three, said Jesus, was
neighbor to him that fell among thieves?
This question implies that neither of the
three was neighbor TO the man till some
thing had been undertaken for his relief;
and that he who did undertake it, did
then become his neighbor. Thus it Is
from within man himself that neighbor-
hood comes, yet not from within such an
one as shows mercy. He Is my neighbor,
who needing me, is indee helped by nae;
so that l am his neighbor before he is

While Henry Myers freighting outfit,
with six men, was camped II miles south
of Custer, ID. r., they were visited by
three men who cooked theif dinners at
the camp fire, and made themselves 70
agreeable that all OF the freigh.ers except
the son Of Meyers gathered about them.
Young Meyers was suspicious and went
to one of the wagons, where he got his
shotgun and remained away from the
party during the conversation around
the campfire. One Of the strangers ad.
mired a shotgun belonging to the
fzeightrFs and took 1t to examine it.
