month is out and contains some very
Interesting reading as well as full ac-
counts of the doings of the lodges
composing the jurisdiction. With the
issue is presented half-tone engrav-

lures and credit TO the journal issu-
ing them.
Under the head of Growth of the
Order in Utah" appears a very timely
and interesting article which is re-
produced as follows:
The year 1894 was the worst year

IS Cycling
Injurious .?

Many persons apparently healthy
find great difficulty in getting a.
good nights sleep. If they are
able TO go to sleep. they often wake
up during the night and lie awake
for hours. Consequently when
morning comes. instead o. feeling
refreshed they feel as tired as when
they went TO bed. They are IN
able to account for this and seek
the costly advice of a physician.
The doctor recommends cycling
and off they go to buy bicycle,
never supposing for a moment
that there is as much difference in
cycles as there is in doctors, and
after the exercise is taken, the
same old tired feeling still remains,
when, if they had bought the re-
nowned light running Rambler BIZ
cycle from Browning Bros, the diff
ficulties would have vanished like
the dew before the morning sun.
There is really more harm done in
pushing a light. heavy-running
wheel than there is in taking no
exercise at all. Many persons be-
come discouraged and conclude
that the remedy is worse than the
disease, when had they purchased
the proper thing the result would
have been quite different.

THE MAsTER.s QUESTIONS

Have We looked for sheep in the desert.
For those VINO hays missed their wav?
Have you seen in the wild waste places
Where the lost and the wandering
stray?
Have ye trodden the lonely highway,
The foul and the darksome street?
1t may be ye'd see in the cleaning
The print of my wounded feet.
Have We folded home to your bosom
The trembling, neglected lamb,
And taught to the little lost one
The sound of the Shepherds name?
Have We searched for the poor and needy
With no clothing; no home, no bread?
The Son of Man was among them
He had nowhere to lay His head.
Have We carried the living water
To the parched and thirsty soul?
Have ye said to the sick and the
wounded
Christ Jesus makes thee whole!'
Have We told my fainting children
OF the strength of my Fathers hand?
Have We guided the tottering footsteps
To the shore of the golden land?"
Have ye stood by the sad and the weary.
To smooth the pillow of death,
To comfort the sorrow-stricken,
And strengthened the feeble faith?
And have We felt, when the glory
Has streamed through the open door.
And fitted across the shadows,
That there 1 had been before?
Have We wept with the broke &hearted.
In their agony of woe!
Ye might hear me whisneriner heSIda va,

Ny brethren, My friends. My disciples,
Art sure ye can follow Me?
Then, wherever the Master dweIleth,
There shall the Servant be!

moned to be present, and they re-
Sponded. Those who were present

as never spoke so we'll. The affair was
to them a harbinger of what the other
lodges might do this year, and they
took advantage of the occasion to
dwell at length on the theme of Odd
Fellowship in this territory. Brother
Wardeigh. p. G. M, also was equal to
the occasion and spoke feelingly of his
experience in the order and the bright
outlook. Our deputy grand master,
John T. Buckle, also excelled himself
in the flow of language that came
freely from his lips; as he looked for
ward a year or more to the time when
ne would probably be master over this
jurisdiction, he felt that he might and
could preside over host of Odd Eel
lows, with lodges counting from one
to fifty or more. Brother Buckle is
known for his modesty, and these
facts were not expressed in words by
him. but found Judgement in his
heart.
The lodges of ogden the second cit
adel of strength in this territory have
an active, thoroughly drilled Union de-
gree staff, who have worked not only
every week but sometimes two or
three times each week.
Provo, Park City, Bingham and
Payson are forging ahead, with the
smaller lodges holding their own.

what do we see?
The five subordinates petitioning the
grand lodge for a dispensation to take
members for trifling less sum than the
regular rates with an assurance that
they can at least add one quarter to
the roll of members.
The inception of the baby lodge,

cants who were ready to join the or
der if allowed. The lodge was insti-
tuted in the hall of No. 1, on Thurs
day, the 14th of March.
Manti, Logan, Coalville, Spanish
Fork, American Fork and other towns
want an Odd Fellows lodge, and this
year may see their wish granted.
The prospects for Odd Fellowship in
Utah were never brighter than at the
present time.

quantities in the following manner:
Plant with one variety IN one planter
box, and another variety in the other.
Remove the tassels of one variety be-
fore they begin to shed pollen, and the
shoots of the same will be fortified
with pollen from the other varieties,
thus producing a direct cross. The
seed of the cross should be selected
from the rows from which the taSseIS
have been removed. In relation to the
effect Of removing tassels upon yield,
1t was found that last year the re-
moval Of the tasseis increased the
yield IS per cent. while in two former
years there was no advantage derived
from the detasseling. AT other sta
lions the results have most frequently
been adverse, with some notable ex-
ceptions. The good results seem to
have occurred when there was little
rainfall during the period of removing
the tassels.
Some experiments in listing gave an
average yield of 51.1 bushels, as com
pared with $50 bushels for a like NUM-

 Madison, Wis. June % 1895. President of Board of Trade, Birming- ham. Ala
 Dear Sir: Will you kindly favor us with your views on the following:
 l. Do railroads practice unjust dis crimination to any great extent?
 2. Have rates in general been reason able, stable and satisfactory since the passage of the interstate commerce law? 3. Was it your experience that pools as they existed prior to their prohibition were injurious and contrary to public policy?
 1. Would the railroads of your city, if pooled, have a monopoly?
 5. Do you think that expense and fear of retaliation would prevent complaints from being made before the commits sion?
 G. Would it be advisable to legalize pooling. as provided for in the above question?
 should be very much pleased with any other remarks and suggestions which you shall make. Very respect fully GEO. A MILLER

THE DEMAND GRANTED.
Tennessee Coal iron and Railway Company
 Ii Advances the Scale of Wages for Day = Laborers in Their Mines.

The Tennessee Coal Iron and Railway company have made another advance of wages This time it is the men who work by the day in the mines and on entry work.
 During the strike of last year the men doing the day work in the mines. such as hauling out coal, driving mules, cut ting entries, etc, were cut in wages.
 Yesterday a mine committee of thr- teen, from Blocton, Pratt mines, Blue Creek and West Pratt, called on the manager of the Tennessee Coal Iron and Railway company and asked that these mems wages be restored on parity with the advance allowed the coal cutters The request was readily granted. The advance is two-thirds of the reduction. This means more and better wages and d corresponding increase in the monetary circulation in this district.

The Boys Were Not Beaten So Badly-Good
 Work of the Commercial Club.


 Work Of the Commercial Club.
 Demopolis. July 12.-(Special Corre- spondence.) Jour baseball boys got back from the scene of their defeat last night, and when they heard that your core sponaent had sent in the report of their having lost the game by score Of 2 to they were indignant. They say the official score was 10 to II in favor of uniontown, and that Uniontown was clearly out played up to the seventh inning, when from unaecountab,e req sons our boys went to pieces, letting them get in ten runs. They also claim that they played against the whole country, Uniontown having gotten play CTS from everywhere and using only two of their own team. Our boys are hank ering' for another game with this same team, but they seem to think that as they were gathered from all points of the globe it will be 8 hard matter to get the game up. Regarding the report sent you, I had it by telephone from Uniontown, and the error is chargeable to them, not to me.
 The good effects of the Commercial club is being felt already in our community. The secretary of the association has been writing letters to people all over the country who are anxious to move south, and has received letters from diff ferent parts of the west making closer inquiries into our location, population, advantages, etc. One or two of the writers say positively that they are coming south despite the effort made to keep them from dcing so by reporting that our climate will kill them instanter. They write that this report is positively the only thing which keeps a regular exodous from taking place. We are pretty well assured of two of these in- quirers, and expect to get lot more of them in the course of time.
 Our town is continuing the improve ment which was commenced last sum- mer. In this line I have to report that J. Marx &s Co.,, one of our leading firms, have let the contract for having their handsome double story brick store on Washington street beautified by an ele- gant glass front. The contract has been given to o. L. Hitchcock The board of trustees of the Marengo Female institute met this morning and let the contract for a calisthenic room and chapel added to the institute building. The contract price is $2000 and the work has been t,aven to Contractor George A. Klie.
 MT. Joe Gallon, who has been living on the outskirts of town in his handsome summer home, has decided to move his family to town, and to that end has had the small frame house that was near the residence of Dr. s. D. Smith moved to make place for the elegant building which he purposes having built there as soon as possible.
