Timid flowers step forth and see.
Wake, OH blossoms, one and all;
Birds. begin your welcoming call;
Each your sweetest tribute bring
AT the rising OF the King.
Moses, haste! carpet spread,
Softest green where He shall tread.
Lilies white, before His feet
Pour your cups of incense sweet.
troCuS, let your torches glow
Where His gracious steps shall go;
Ring, oh. harebclls, gayly ring
At the advent of the King.
At His coming, trembling stand,
aspen trees on either hand,
Cowslips wake from dewy sleep,
MossCs Ger their shoulders peep,
Wondering eyed the violets peer,
Well they know His step is near,
Sing, oh, robins, gayly sing
At the coming Of the King.
Lo. He comes. In bush and tree
Birds are wild with song and glee,
In mad haste the babbling rill
Tumbles down the rocky hill.
Look, Oh, look. He comes and now
Bending low the grasses bow,
Naples wide your banners fling
At the glory Of the King.
He is here. So let US lay
Something at His feet to-day.
That above earth'S treasures fro
He will prize. What shall it be:
Hearts, made holy for His sake,
Let us each before Him take,
While all lands exultant ring
With the praise OF Christ, our King.

Vehicles Suitable for Use in Vineyards
and Berry Fields.
Grapes, raspberries, blackberries, cur
rants and gooseberries are usually
planted in rows from six to eight feet
apart, and after few years it is quite
impossible to drive between the rows
with a common farm wagon; hence. If
it is desired to fertilize the plants, it is
necessary to carry the manure long
