Monday, March 81, 1893
LYNCHBURG, Va, March 2s.-During
the month Of March, thus far, there has
been only about one-third the average
amount of rainfall; during the past
seven days there has been generally
little or no rainfall, except towards the
southwest sections, where there has
been about a half inch of rainfall end
ing with light snow on Monday. Thus
far the temperature for March has av-
eraged about the normal, the coolest
periods were on the 4th to 9th and 18th
to goth; since the latter date the tenn
perature has been above the average
for the season.
Reports show that early winter wheat
has generally come through the winter
in fairly good condition, while late
sown wheat was in rather bad con.
dition. Both have improved consider
ably during the past two or three weeks.
The comparatively dry weather during
March has permitted following to be
prosecuted generally. and some garden
Ing has been done even in tho central
counties. In Roanoke county above the
average amount of ground is being pre-
pared for spring oats and for corn, and
in Surry county the oat and potato crops
have been seeded
The grass is beginning to come out
rapidly, and the buds arc swelling.
The continued cold, or compar atively
cool temperature during the entire sea-
son since the middle of November has
no doubt proved beneficial to the fruit
buds, and there is now reasonable
prospect for good fruit crop of every
kind.
1t is thought that every planter has
been ena bled to prepare and seed their
plant beds, but all of the correspondents
failed to state the condition and pros
poets for the corn crop. 1t is expected
that full report can BIO made on the
same next week. J. N RYKER.

ResOlutiOns by the W. M. Sc. 0i
Mexico, on the death of
Mrs. e Rodgers.

We have lately in the experience
of the Woman's Missionary Society
of the United Presbyterian church of
Mexico, been called to sustain q
heavy loss in the removal by death OF
Mrs. Charlotte Rodgers. She had
been identified with this society
from the time of its organization on
January Sth, 1879, and up to the
time of her death YVES faithful
earnest worker for the advancement
of the Masters Cause, and the pro.
motion of his glory. Her influence
was ever on the side of right in ali
her associations with others, and IN
the society her prayers and efforts to
add to the interest in our meetings.
Will long be felt and remembered.
Her removal was sudden but did not
find her unprepared, for on the af
ternoon of the day on which she re-
ceived tho injury, which resulted in
her death, talking with her pastor
about the probable result of the in
jury, she said she was certain that it
would be for her good. II she re-
covered the Savior had more work
for her to do for him, if it would
terminate in her death that would
be her great gain. for she would i'm
mediately enter into glory-But she
is gone. She will mingle with our
songs of praise on earth 10 more.
In our meetings there vii be a "a.
cant chair. =" Nv shall miss her kind
ly greetings and wise counsels, but
we would say, "It is the Lord, let
him DO what seemeth him good and
we her fellow workers in this society
would adopt the following resolu-
lions as expressive of the high esti-
mate in which we held her, and our
consciousness of the loss we have
sustained:
1st. ResolUSd: That in this dispen-
salion we hear God urging US to
greater diligence in the discharge of
our duties, that We plead with the
God that has bereaved us, to arouse
US to greater diligence, that we may
aid in repairing the breach that has
been made by the removal of such
an active and efficient laborer from
our midst
End: That looking at how she l.y
ed and died, we are inspired with
the same confidence with which she
was animated with reference to the
future and that to be absent from the
body was for her to be present with
the Lord.
Bird: That we all live SO that UC
will be able to look forward to a Eup-
Ply reunion in the world of glory,
where we shall meet to part n moe

The Level Prairie.

''if q horse could stand it, said S.
A Rowbotham, well known citizen
of Winnipeg, Manitoba, "a man could
leave Winnipeg and ride 1000 miles
west and northwest over a level
prarie before he would be obstruct-
ed by the mountains. This gives al
idea Of the great territory lying west
Of Winnipeg, which to the Eastern
man seems way out OF the world.
The soil of this prarie produces the
finest spring wheat grown anywhere,
and this enormous plain which 1
have just mentioned will in a few
years be the great granary of the
world. Eastern people have a misty
idea OF our expansive territory. We
ara just commencing to grow wheat
compared to decade hence, though
cur crop two years ago WAS G0,000,-
600 bushels.
We have but little snow and in the
many years that [ reside at Manitoba
l never saw the top of the bright
prario grass covered Cattle fairly
roll in tat, and we are becoming a
great cattle country. While most of
our settlers are from across the wa
tet. yet the number from the West
ern States is yearly increasing. We
have no wild west frontier scenes.
There are no settlers killed over dis
puted claims, Us has been an every
day story in the west for years. Our
homestead laws require a three
years residence of six months each.
Land may be preempted, too. Gold
has been discovered in wonderfully
rich quartz deposits few miles cast
OF Winnipeg, and paying mills have
just been erected by Minneapolis
capitalists. l predict rush to the
lake Of the woods district next year.
Winnipeg has $4,000 inhabitants, and
is thriving city. Our winters are
cold but we do not mind them. The
atmosphere is dry and the days are

Gas in Hollow Trees.

A correspondent of the Hunting
don Local News: L am sure l have
room to learn many things and one
of my latest discoveries is in cutting
timber. Anyone who is accustomed
to cutting trees down will find, if the
tree is hollow with no air hole, that
rs soon as the axe strikes the hollow
there will be a gas or air come out
with kissing noise. This gas is in
hammable and will ignite as soon as
You put n match to it, The strange
par. is, it will blizo yet you can't see
it, but the roaring, cracking and
heat is enough to convince one that
it is there.
The first one [ tried when 1 got it
in full blast, L ran away some dis
tance, thinking the old tree might
blow up, but [ think there is no dan
ger, rs / have burned out number
since. L have never found one, but
what would burn, unless the gas had
escaped before 1 got the match to it.

that, arrayed in their leaves they
will not effend the inscrutable sense
OF propriety of the missionaries, who
had prescribed cotton cloths, but had
been compelled to compromise on
the foliage of the banana plant
These missionaries seem entirely
to overlook the fact that dress Is
really nothing but matter OF Gus
tom; that millions of people who
think the uncovered faces OF our wo-
men on the street are shameful have
habits of attire that do not accord
with our notions of propriety; and
that instilling into the minds OF saw
ages, ideas of indecorum where none
whatever had existed may not be, al
ter al, the best way to improve and
benefit their immortal souls.
