through the Holy Spirit, calling him
not by a miraculous vision as in the
case of Saul, yet calling him as really
as Jesus called Saul when the latter
was on his "a to Damascus. What
shall he do with such facts and such
visions in his own mind? What shall
he do with these new impressions
made upon him? What shall he do
with these new thoughts and new
views that have somehow come to
him, and that abide with him? We
have the answer in what Saul did
when he had ''the heavenly vision"
He did not disobey that vision, and
for this reason became a Christian.
chose the path of life and walked
therein, and finally entered heaven as
a redeemed and pardoned sinner,
saved by the grace of God through
Christ. He might have taken a diff
ferent course and if he had done so,
the "heavenly vision would have
done him no good, but rather added
to his guilt as a sinner.
To be convinced of an error is n
thing, and to forsake it in obedience
to conscience and the will Of God and
turn to the right is quite another and
a different thing. Saul of Iarsus
was not only convinced by supernat-
ural evidence that he was wrong, but
as a sinner he turned to the right,
and thus followed his conviction.
Every sinner saved does and must do
the same thing. Obedience is his
work, and without it there is no sal
walton. Mere thinking will not an
swer, and mere feeling will not an
swer. There must be the positive
and real purpose of obedience, or
neither the thinking nor the feeling,
however proper in themselves, will
result in salvation. An obedient tenn
per of the heart is the spiritual state
that God approves and demands and
withouti it there will be neither gen.
uine repentance mol genuine faith

Christ Owns Us.

The true idea which every Christ
tan should keep in mind is that he
does not own himself. Christ owns
us and has a perfect right to put us
lust where he chooses and to demand
of us Just what he wants. He has a
right to the firstlings of the flock, to
the brightest sons and daughters OF
our families. The best brains n
highest culture are non to good for
his service. If his pulpits and his
mission fields need them, then IN
Gods name let them not be c~oDfiscat-
ed to mere money-making or office
seeking, or earthly ambitions of any
kind. What we call our property
really belongs to Christ; we only
surrender to him his own when we
pour it into his treasury. Jesus has
the first claim-a claim to the best
and is not to be put off with the can
die ends and the cheese parings. Is
this great principle acknowledged
by those church members who squan-
der their thousands on fine houses
and equipage, and then dribble out
stingily "what they a afford"(D to
him who has purchased for them an
eternal salvation? All, let such re-
member that they cannot afford to
rob their loving Master of what is his
own. 1t is no sin to have money,
but it is a sin to let money have us.
If we put the chest OF gold on our
own shoulders it may crush US into
~selfshness and ruin but if we put it
under our feet it may lift us up to
usefulness and the smile of our APP
proving Lord. How much of my
time and money and talents does
Jesus Christ need? That is the way
that Christians should look at the
matter.-Rec. T. l.. Cuyler, IN EUdn-

Winter on the Farm.

The alternating season is one of
comparative leisure for soil cultiva-
tors. But wide-awake, progressive
farmers will occupy their time profit
ably. They will wisely embrace
every opportunity to improve their
minds and acquire practical and sci
entific information pertaining to their
occupation. For this purpose they
will not only read and study instruct
i've works on rural topics, but will
also attend and participate in the
discussions of farmers clubs, institu-
ties and like associations. Moreover,
they will see that their families are
supplied with good books and period
icals, and furnish other facilities for
mental improvement, recreation and
innocent amusement. Wise farmers
will now plan and forecast their opera
tions for the ensuing season, thus
preparing in winter for the active
labors of spring and summer. Let
our readers promptly arrange and
provide for a spring campaign in
field, orchard and garden, and it will
be greatly to their advantage. De-
eide as to the crops to be grown, and
make early arrangements to secure
the necessary seeds, fertilizers, i'm
plements, ETC., that there may be no
delay when the time for action ar
rives. A little brain work now may
save damaging hindrances and tenn
per-trying annoyances at a season
when time and %equanimity are most
valuable.

1t is comparatively few farmers
who can accomplish all that they eX-
pect. They lay out plans that require
more men and team help than they
can command. OF late years it is
increasingly difficult to hire reliable
farm help but horses are always to
be had for the money if the farmer
wants to purchase them. 1t is in
this way that many overstock them
selves with horses. The evil is the
worse for the fact that an idle horse
in the stable is a temptation to the
owner or to his family to drive around
the country, instead of attending
strictly to their business. We believe
that farmers do well to visit each 9TH
er and learn different and improved
methods of farming; but the season
for this is mainly in winter, when
farm work is not pressing. 1t is
hardly possible for a farmer to leave
work for anything in the growing
season without loss.

If a heifer is herself a spring calf,
it is not generally best to allow her
to breed so as to drop a calf before
she is two years old. But, if she was
herself born in the fall, she may be
bred when nine or ten months old,
thus dropping a calf when she IS
eighteen or nineteen months old.
There is a general idea that a heifer's
first calf is not worth raising. POSI-
bly, for making a beef breed it may
not be, but some of the best COWS |
have ever known were thus bred.
Jersey COW are noted for their earli-
ness in coming to breeding age. In
the warm climate of their island home
they breed at an early age, and this
helps to explain not only their small
size, but their acknowledged excel
lence for the dairy. The vitality of
the young heifer is so. soon diverted
to milk production that it becomes
the most important function in the
animal economy.

Undertaking Land.

Many farmers are repealed from
understanding by reading reports of
the great expense incurred wherever
a regular system is undertaken. But
for ordinary farming such expense is
neither necessary nor in most cases
to be advised. Begin with drains cut
through a few wet places in fields,
most of which are usually dry enough
for successful cropping. This will
not cost much, and will almost GER
tainly give a profit. The cost of
blowing, seeding and c~ultivating
grain crops that are in certain spots
drowned out every year is an entire
loss. 1t does not take many such
places in a field to more than Offset
the gains that can be made from the
remaining portions. Besides, there
is always a loss from delay in seed
ing. The time for blowing a field
muSU ever Uc UudI dG hhlCH no "S"tSSS
part is dry enough for tilling. When
the wet places are drained they will
be ready for blowing even earlier than
those that were thought not to need
draining. We have often seen strips
of three or four rods width of dry
land through a hollow where the I'M
derdrain ran, while the higher land
on either side was still too wet to
to pillow. In time, farmers who be-
gin draining will learn that what they
thought was dry enough to not need
an underdrain must also be drained.
Many hillsides are full of springs,
and to keep them underground, and
so carry them off out of the way, is
as necessary as it is to underdrain
the wamps and orass

Gods Short Way to Heaven.

A young nan in Edinburgh went
out, and he thought he would speak
about Jesus to the first person that
he met with. He met a Musselburgh
fsh-wife carrying a great load on her
back. He said to her: "Here you
are with your BURDEN cay" said
she. "Well," he said, ''did you
ever feel a spiritual burden?" cay"

she, s'Bunyan's Evangelist that he

sort. He was not clear in the gospel,

see it. DO you see that light over

way to DO all that. What had that

The attempt to delude the workingmen
was the most audacious act done yester-
day. The Rolfe organ tried on Sunday
to stir up hostility to Gibson and Collins
among workingmen in this strain:
Mr.. Mckay is also we'll known in this
section and like Mr.. Chas M. Webster, he
will be the champion of the workingmen.
The time Of his candidacy is short, and
every republican and every man who
wishes to see the rights of the working
men protected, should turn out and work
with all their might for the election Of
Chas. M. Webster and Daniel Mckay.
In the same issue Rolfe announced in
large type:
Tive noble brothers, Webster and Nc
Kay. On Tuesday vote for them.
While thus pretending to support Web
sterr and Mckay, Rolfe knew that each
had only one name on their tickets and
that Mckay, who had not the slightest
chance Of success, was knitting Webster,
the regular nominee.
Dave Churchill went up to Cascade and
Gorham to head off Mckay, but somehow
both places gave Mckay more votes than
Charley Webster, the regular nominee.
The twelve Cascade precincts not heard
from gave Carter, 1893; Clark, 1874. So
Gibson and Collins vote cannot be offset
by them. H

Sullivan in Training.

New YORK, May 18.-John L. Sullivan
left the city yesterday, ostensibly to go to
New Orleans, where he is supposed to
train for his fight with Kilrain in July.
No one believes that there will be a seri-
ous encounter between Sullivan and Kill
rain. They are too old at "hippodroming''
and the opinion is that they will not now
depart from it. Sullivan, before he start
ed from the city with his trainer and a
few sporting friends, said he did not be
lieve in the old time "dubs," who used to
kill themselves by training six or seven
months for mill. Seven weeks he
thought was enough for any man and
that was all the time he would ever take
if left to his own judgment.

Around

HELENA, May 15.-ISpecial to the
TRIBUNE. The democrats here are hap
py at the result and claim majority o1
seven in the convention. Republicans
are blue and concede five majority.
In Silver Bow and Deer Lodge coun
ties the democrats carried every district
In Missoula the democrats carry one dis
trict and the chances are favorable fol
the other. Bickford gets an immense
majority.
Gallatin and Jefferson counties went
democratic and present indications are
that Beaverhead falls into line. Park,
Yellowstone and Dawson counties went
republican.
Meagher county elects Parberry and
DR.. Rotwitt (rep.) Kanouse and StaHord's
(dem.) vote is very close to theirs. The
official returns will be necessary to de-
eide.
In the 18th district, comprising portions
of Lewis and Clarke county, Marysville,
Empire, Sun River, Wolf creek and
Goodwins have been heard from. The
totals are Ford (dem.) 1908, Mayer (dem.,
1877, Gillette (rep) 73, Burns (rep) 161
Ralston Gnd. dem. 1908. Ralston is from
Marysville and is an independent demo
crat. Some democrats claim that the
precincts to be heard from in this district
will show that Ford, Mayger and Ralston
are elected. This would shut out republi-
cans entirely.
