to keep stock comfortable, We have
fewer losses when a mild season
would tempt us to be negligent.
Not Horses Enough.

There are comparatively few far
mers who keep the team help that
they could profitably use, provided
of course, they combine with the
team, propOrtionate amount of
manure and hired labor. So much
of the work of the farm can now be
done by implements which require
horse labor that it is great pity that
anything that can be done by horse
power should weary human muscle.
Scarcely any hoeing Of corn or pota-
| toes is needed when the cultivator
propelled by horse power is used as
freely as it should be. While the
corn is small and even before it
comes up, it can and should be har-
rowed, thus destroying the small
weeds in the hill. If this is done
twice there will be scarcely any
weeds that the cultivator cannot
reach. 1t makes our back ache to
think even now how many days we
spent hOeing corn when a boy that
timely dragging of the whole surface
before the corn was up would have
made unnecessary. But in most
cases if the right implements had
been made to do the work by horse
power, all the teams were too busy
hitting other fields, and even the cul-
tivatlng was often postponed longer
than it need to have been. OF course,
this was bad management. The
horse and cultivator, or better still,
two horses with a sulky culSivator
straddling the hill, would do the
work of twenty men in corn or pota-
toes, and do it better. Yet in most
cases an Eastern farmer will object
to the two-hOrse cultivator, mainly
because the second horse cannot al
ways be spared. In this respect the
Western farmers, who all use two
horse cultivators, ARE wiser and more
truly economical. - Massachusetts

The Cow Pea.

Experience supplemented by scien-
tific facts proves that in no way can
we so easily restore wornout lands to
fertility as by sowing of COW peas,
excepting probably clover. Pea seed
will cost less money, and we are
more sure of crop on rundown land
than we are of clover. Although the
pea is an annual, one may be reason
ably sure of a good following crop,
which, with me, has always been
wheat. Whereas, if clover on poor
or rundown land, never could get
a stand, unless an abundance of ma
nure was used. Plenty of manure
will raise crops anywhere, unless
washed away.
am. a firm supporter of clover

ture lands, but for cropping the fol-
lowing year peas on poor land and

Like clover, peas are able to draw
nourishment from the air. AS with
other hay crops, peas must be har-
vested in season. Then the vines
make an excellent feed for stock.
Horses eat them readily. But il left

overripe clover, scarcely fit for bed

good, but, bushel for bushel, doubt

A BISHOP ON HIGHER CRITICISM.
Paving the Way for SpirituaIism, Chris.
tIan Sci.rce aud Mor,nonI.m

Paving the Way for Spiritualism, Chris
tian Science and Mormonism.
From the Texas Christian Advocate
Bishop Gambler was in Augusta
the other day, and in an interview
which was sent out through the
press dispatches said:
"The work of the higher critics in
discrediting the Divine revelation of
the Bible is paving the way for Spirit
uaiism, Christian Science and Mormon
ism which claim to be later revela-
tons" and makes the rather surprising
statement that "there are more Nor
mon elders at work in Georgia than
there are Presbyterian pastors or Epi :
copal rectors."
We have no keener observer Of the
passing events of the day than this
wise and well trained servant of the
Church. His calling for the past
years as all educator of the youth of
the South puts-him ina position to
speak advisedly of the influence of
the so-called higher critics method
of dealing with the Scriptures. The
trend of the whole matter Is to cast
doubt in the popular mind as to
the validity of the Bible, and those
doubts are not offset by the advant-
age gained in the pursuit Of this de
structive method. 1t has been
demonstrated by experience that the
teachings of the Bible meet the
pressing needs of the souls of men,
ard that they are thus brought into
touch with the source of light and
life and spiritual help. What do
the average people care for the
quibblings of scholars touching the
authorship of some few books of the
Bible? They are struggling with
temptation and poverty and doubt
and Elm In, its multiplied .fOrms, and
what they need is salvation from
these foreign forces. The gospel of
Christ Is the power of God unto the
salvation of every one that believetn.
or it is hollow sham. The former
has been tested in the personal ex-
periences of men and the gospel is
what they want. 1t is our business
to give it to them with no mixture
of our peculiar views of "higher
criticism" Let these misguided
seats mentioned by Bishop Gambler
give to the world their new revela
ton of the will of God to men.
Whenever we tamper with that and
mix our tampering with our preach
ing, the people will lack a pure
spiritual food. 1t is just as impor-
tant to keep food authorizations out
of the pulpit as it is to keep them
out of the pantry. No Methodist
preacher is called to criticise the
Bible, or to prune it, but to preach
it as it is-the word of life. The
Church sets him apart to this one
work and to nothing Else.
