EFFECTS OF THE STORM.

The heavy storm last evening again
played havoc with the Hyde Park ave-
nue. pavement The bricks have just
been placed in position and have not
been cemented yet, and the water COM
pletely inundated the pavement be-
tween Lafayette street and Jackson
street.
The storm on Wednesday did con-
siderable damage, and many of the
bricks had to be replaced. The extent
of last nights damage will not be
known until the inspector makes an
examination today.
Several Of the cars operated by the
Traction company were crippled dur
ing the storm, particularly the double
trucked vestibuled cars on the Wash
burn street line. No serious damage
was reported, however.
About 7.30 o'clock a Taylor-Throop
car reached the West Lackawanna ave-
nue. crossing when the power was shut
off and the car had just reached a
point outside the gates. Fortunately II
was out of danger, as the result might
have been serious.

ENSILAGE CORN.

Favorable Words For the Leaning
as to Yield and Quality.
The changed conditions brought about
through the use of the silo, together
with an increasing use of soiling crops,
have developed an interest in knowing
the relative value of crops used for
these purposes. Their real value must
be solved by the individual Conditions
and kinds of soil, the domestic animals
kept, together with conveniences and
facilities for handling the crop, go a
good way toward solving the problem.
Recognizing these facts, the New
Hampshire station has been testing
various forage plants for the last three
years, and its experience with ensilage
corn is reported as follows by Professor
E. William Rane.
Many varieties of ensilage corn have
been grown at the station for the past
few years, but the question resolves it
self down to two varieties, which, we
believe, are the ones best adapted to
our conditions-namely, the Leaning
and the Sanford. The former is prefer
able, we believe, for the southern part
Of the state, and the latter perhaps for
the northern. Both mature sufficiently
for ensilage here at the station.
The Sanford is too well known to
farmers generally to need any recon-
mendation. Ever since 1888 this variety

Spray EARLY In Spring.

''The first spraying should be done
early in the spring, before the buds
open, and it must be done thoroughly.
The second should be done after the
trees are through blossoming. while the
third may come 18 to 20 days later.
The fourth spraying is due about three
weeks later. A tree is sufficiently
sprayed when the drops of the mixture
are seen hanging from the branches
and leaves. Many orchard trees besides
spraying need thorough scraping. as
in the case Of the elm trees. Then the
brush and other waste matter, includ-
ing all dead leaves and rubbish, must
be removed from the grounds and
burned. Do not leave it near the trees
or in the roadway. for the eggs deposit
ed therein win hatch in the spring. If
there are dead trees or badly diseased
ones here and there in the orchard, cut
them down and burn them, says an
Orange Judd Farmer correspondent,

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR.

Topic For the Week Beginning April
2-COmment by Rev. S. H. Doyle.
ToPIc.-The birthday Of hope.-I Pet. /, 10.
| IAN Easter meeting.)
The birthday of the Christian hope
here referred to was Easter day, the
day on which Christ arose from the
dead. Both the topic and the reference
suggest study Of the hope born into
the world when Christ o7ercame death
and the grave.
The hope of Easter day is based upon
historical fact. 1t was the resurrec-
tion of Christ which begat this hope.
'Blessed be God who = hath
begotten US again into a lively hope by
the resurrection of Jesus Christ from
the dead" The hope is founded, there
fore, upon the resurrection of Christ.
And this is a historical fact. No fact in
history is more fully attested than the
fact Of the death and resurrection Of
Christ. 1t is proved by "many infalli-
BILE proofs. The New Testament Is
one continuous witness. The gospels
record it; the Acts present it as the
one chief theme of the apostles preach
ing; the epistles base upon it the Chris
tian life and doctrine. The Lords day
and Eastertide stand as constant wit
ness to the accuracy and genuineness Of
this historical fact.
The hope of Easter day is living
hope. 1t is hope that will be fulfilled
This follows naturally and necessarily
from the fact that the hope is based
upon fact. Many hopes of life are il
lusions. They are based upon fancy,
and not upon fact. When the time Of
their fulfllment arrives, like the mirage
Of the desert they disappear. Touch
them and like the apples Of Sodom they
vanish away. Not SO the Christians
hope, based upon the resurrection Of
Christ. The foundation is firm and Sc
cure. The hope based upon it must be
realized.
The hope of Easter day is the hope of
eternal life in heaven. 1t is hope F:.to
an inheritance, incorruptible and unde-
filed, that fadeth not away, reserved in
heaven 1t is hope for eternity both
for our friends and our loved ones.
Christ arose. This begets in us lively
hope that our loved ones shall arise,
that we shall arise and that we shall in
herit the home prepared for us.
Blessed hope Of Eastertide, first
heard when the angels announced the
glorious fact that Christ was risen from
the dead and never to cease to be heard
till earth and sea shall give up their
dead and those who have died in Christ,
having arisen, shall reign with Him
forever and foreverl

has been the main crop here until three
years ago. Last year we planted about
half the crop to each. The present sea-
son fully three-fourths of the ensilage
crop was of the Leaning.
Unlike the Sanford, which is a white
flint, the Leaning is a yellow dent
corn, and is one of the earliest grown
The ears are large and handsome, with
deep grain and small cob. The stalks
grow to a medium size, from one to
two feet taller than the Sanford It is
very leafy and usually produces two
good ears to the stalk. 1t adapts itself
to various kinds Of soils equally as well
as the Sanford.
The comparative yields of the two
varieties during the past seasons have
been from two to four tons per acre in
favor of the Leaning. Not only has
the yield been much better, but Pro-
fessor Morse, who has had charge of the
feeding experiments, tells me that the
ensilage is equally as good as that of
the Sanford, and changing from the
Cne to the other makes no perceptible
difference in the milk flow or its COM
position.
1t is hoped that all who are interest
ed in ensilage will give the Leaning
corn small trial at least. The cut is a

The Advantages Of Yesterday,

Yesterday is no mausoleum Of dead
deeds, no storehouse of mummies.
Memory is granary, holding seed for
tomorrow's sowing; memory is an ar
mory, holding weapons for tomorrow g
battles; memory is a medicine chest,
with balms for tomorrow s hurts; mem
ory is a library, with wisdom for to-
morrow's emergency. Yesterday holds
the full store Of today's civilization ;
contains our tools, conveniences, knowl-
edges; contains our battlefelds and vic
tories; above all, gives us Bethlehem
and Calvary. But alone mans yester-
day is impotent, his tomorrow INSULT
cient. The true man binds all his days
together with an earnest, intense, pas
sionate purpose. His yesterdays, todays
and tomorrows march together one
solid column, animated by one thought,
constrained by one conspiracy of desire,
energizing toward one holy and helpful
purpose-to serve man and love God

The Snow.

How fair and beautiful appears the snow
Hanging like jewels on the leaf1ess trees
Which now stand motionless, unstirred
by breeze
Or Ightest breath Of wind that heaven
can blow!
Like wondrous picture does the grand
earth show,
Painted by hand divine with marvellous
ease,
AS If 1t knew it could not fail to please
And DER each soul a rapturous transport
throw.
Would that our lives might be as bright
and pure
AS is the snow that all things now in
fold!
Then would our destiny be no more OBJ.
: scure,
And hapless fate would lose her iron
hold,
nd man, with face that might high heav-
en- allure,
Would tempt bright angels from their
harps Of gold.

Thinking With God.

One great student described his work
as thinking Gods thoughts after Him.
That is what all true study is. No one
can really think Gods thoughts while
out of harmony with God. We may be
thinkers with God as well as laborers
with Him, but we cannot think with
Him and not think Of Him. Christian
