THE CHURCH SPLIT GROWING.
Northern Presbyterians Refuse to
Longer Cooperate.

holden, Mo-, Oct. 1.-THE Pres.
bytsrian synod Of Missouri met TO-
day the Rev. George P. Wilson of
the FIRST Presbyterian church of
Kansas City moderator, and R. Ir-
win of Kansas City, state clerk, in
their places.
The most important act of the
synod was tho resolution discontiu-
uing its cooperation in support #
Westminster college. The debate
brought out the subjec, of fraternal
relations. The remarks of DR.. Mel
son Of New York, although North
ern man, were warm and cordial to-
ward his brethren of the south. The
resolution was as follows:
The synod of Missouri in session
at Holden, Missouri, resolved to dis
continue at the close of the current
year, cooperation in support of
Westminster college. In sending
you official notice, in accordance
with the terms of cooperation be-
tween the two synods with reference
to the support of Westminster col
lege, that We desire to terminate the
existing cooperation one year from
date, this synod judges it due to
you to set torthits reasons, inasmuch
as it was through your kind and
fraternal invitation that we entered
into the proposed cooperation. Two
causes in brief have led us to take
the present action:
First-There is a dissatisfaction
among our Presbyteries and churches
with the present systems of raising
the salary for support of profess
sor that the synod judges it unwiss
to continue it beyond this current
year nor is it possible IN view of the
present relations of the synods with
no assurance of reunion to raise our
part of a permanent endowment for
a char. In view of this we as a syn
cd can not in honor assume to NOM
mate directors for an institution to
which we do not contribute directly
any financial support.
Second-It was distinctly under
stood among us at the time this CO.
operation was undertaken that our
chief purpose in entering into it was
that through cooperation we might
make some advance toward the or
ganic union of the two synods. Since
the hope of this has been removed
by the action of your assembly the
main incentive to continued cooper
alton in Westminster college has
been taken away. We deeply regret
this, for we believe the best interest
of the cause of Christ and our Pres
byterianism demands the union of
our synods, but since we cannot at
tain this result, we believe it best
for all parties that the control of
Westminster college shall be exclu-
sively in your hands.

REVOLT IN IOWA.
:. Cedar Rapids Demands q Change
1t Once.

n. Mo;nes, Is., Oct. 17.-Ths
.ding republican paper of eastern
ovs. the Cedar Rapids Gazette has
brown the republican managers in
!. state of panic by bold demand
" the withdrawal of Senator
Hutchinson from his place on the
Ii,k.t as the candidate for governor
l.d the substitution of Governor
l.rrsbee or some other strong
nan.
The Gazette states that it is NOV
| d to this demand by the fact that
b has Just become acquainted with
! Hutchinson's Legislative record. The
tate lecturer of the farmers alliance
recently reviewed that record, and
the Gazette has waited for an expla-
nation or denial which, not coming,
| it feels justified in accepting the
charges as unanswerable.
The paper declares that Hutchin-
sons record shows him to have been
constant and determined legisla-
tive fighter for every bill that gave
the railroads an advantage over the
people and working against bills
where favorable to them" and that
::the exposure is humiliating to
those who had confidence in him.
Hutchinson has been a load from
the start. His nomination was the
result of a long and bitter quarrel.
He was the choice of only small
minority of the nominating conven-
ton, but he held his forces so COM
pactly that the success OF either
Hull or Wheeler was out of the
question. The supporters OF both
felt that the nomination of the man
0ttumwa was toying with defeat.
Had they fully comprehended the
damaging record behind the man
and properly measured the volume
Of anti-monopoly sentiment in Iowa
they would have known that with a
compact, organized strong minority
of the dominant party defeat would
follow.
Yesterday James S. Morgan OF Du-
buque, reached the city, and it is un
derstood that from this time en- ht
will direct affairs. He is Alison's
private secretary, and it will be an
Allison campaign henceforth. Nc
energy will be wasted on the govern
orship. In fact Allison will be rec
onciled to Hutchinson's defeat if he
can save the Legislature for himself
This would not only give him great
honor but it will also remove from
his pathway to the presidential nom
nation what was last year a serious
obstacle It was thrown up to the
Iowa contingent at Chicago that the
candidate must come from a doubt
full state, and that Allison did not
answer to that description. If thi'
obstacle should be removed the Du'
buque statesman would not lose any

Recommends If For Arkansas.

A pahlie spirited citizen of St. Louis has sent to Jefferson City a little bill of to sections that will be of great benefit to the State if pass ed It provides that the Governor shall by proclamatlsn declare a hol- iday In the public schools on the third Thursday of March each year. the holiday to be used by the chIi- dren in planting trees under the su- pervIsion of their teachers, and in listening to useful facts about trees which the teachers are required to present for thelr instruction. In number of the Southern Leglsla- turts Mr. James Byars of Tennes- see has secured the introduction of another bill of great value in the same eonnc ction. It provides that in making the tax assessment in each county the number of acres in wood land shall be stated separately in each case. IL would only require an additional column Tn the asses sor's books, and It would enable each State to tell at Il glance how much timber it has left. In very few of the States is this now possible. The Republic recommends the mat. ter for the attention of the legisla- lures of Illinois, Indiana, Arkansas and Texas, as well as to the Legis- lature of fMlssouri.-Republic.

roller coulter throw two furrows to- gether between tie rows of plants, harrow thoroughly both ways, leave the plants until after rain, then hoe them out clean and cultivate between the rows the rost of the season, leaving all runners grow. When the ground freezes top dress with coarse manure and the second crop vii; be nearly as good as the first. After the second crop, piow up the whole businers and cultivate 1t in some other clean hood crop be- fore setting to berries again.
 Selection of vareties depend upon tho character of the market and soil where raised, IT large, highly fla yored berries are desired, then plant Jucanda, Sharpless, Jersey Queen, etc. If quantity is desired, plant Crescent, James Nick, Miner and Manchester, etc. Pistillate yarie- ties liko Crescent and Manchester must be fertilized by setting with staminats kinds that bloom at the same time. About two rows of staminates and four rows of pistil. lates makes cry good proportion.
 As t9 all kinds of soil and eli mate, the Wilson and Crescent have stood the best test of all the differ ent varieties, but the suitabIeness of varieties for particular locations can be determined enly by actual trial.'
 Having thus tar passed over the straw berry field, our subject de- mands that we give the actual re- ports of several straw berry growers in the city ot Springdale. These reports arc given in this article IS they were handed to me ty the gentlemen themselves, and are for the season of l888.
 The first IS that of Mr. ]. F. Barr, who said: T had four rows, forty yards long, from which I pick ed and sold l60 gallons, bringing s44. At these fig glres, one acre of straw berries would bring over one thous- and dollars" His berries were in the matted rows.
 Hr. E. s. Horton said; q had l ot an acre Tn strawberries. They were in fine piece of land and cul. tivated until October 1. mulched them with htter and corn stalks and removed mulching in the spring. The berrIes were in matted rows. We canned for our own use 9 gal Ions; during the season we eat as much as 20 gallons and sold the re. maihder for S60.
 The next IS from Mir. W. G. Rice: 'I have i square rods-Just one for tieth of an acre. l gathered from this patch 100 gallons. What I sold averaged 29 cents per gallon, which would be s29 from l of an aero, or SLIGO per acre.
 The next is from Dr. J. NJ. Ken nedy, whose strawberries are in the garden, ground very rich and lacks nothing in cultivation. He used some ashes. II s straw berries are in beds 70 feet long and Il feet wide This entIre splce was well covered with large, thrifty plants, from which, he said, q picked 100 gallons. They averaged me 35 cts. per gallon, or S35 for the entire patch. II multiplied by 70 equals $2, loo per acre. y
 Now, having completed my ram ble over the straw berry fields, l must say farewell, and may that kind providence that tempers the wind to the shorn ammb," favor you with gentle breezes and timely showers, that you may have straw berries and wealth Tn abundance. "Such is my wish, for whatever counsel we take and experience we relate, yet much depends upon the weather"

A WORD OF CAUTION.

In this as in every other locality where 1t is
Known there are hundreds of persons who are
taking joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla. To those
we want to say one word In nine cases out OF
every ten it is effecting specific cures. But word
comes to us occasionally of people who report
that it operates too freely upon the bowels.
We want to call the attention of those to the fact
that they are not following the printed instruc-
tions and are taking too much of it If it acts
too freely reduce the dose, never taking any
more at any time than causes easy and perfect
action. Keep this injunction in mind, and take
it regularly for while and do not indulge in too
much greasy food, and we will have your testi-
monial within fortnight If taken under these
conditions it is absolute cure for Indigestion,
dyspepsia, sick headaches, constipation, face
eruptions and liver and kidney disorders. It
may be asked how it can possibly cure SO many
ailments. But the reason is clear. All those
troubles are the legitimate result of improper
liver and kidney action or impaired digestive
organs Its effects upon those functions are as
astonishing to the medical fraternity as to the
thousands who are daily taking it.
