PERTAINING TO CHURCHES.

The Wesleyan Methodists' church is
the largest in point of numbers of
the seven Methodist churches which
exist in Great Britain, The Wesley
an Reformers' is the smallest.
The Birmingham Age-Herald claims
to be the only daily paper published
in Alabama. No other is issued more
than six times week. Monday is the
day on which publication is usually
omitted.
"Young ministers who have not
settled for themselves the funda-
mental questions of the Christian
life should leave the pulpit until they
have" says the Standard Baptist,
Chicago.
Bishop Schereschewsky, one of the
missionary bishops of the Protestant
Episcopal church, is engaged in
translating the Scriptures from the
original tongues into the Weu-li dia-
lect of the Chinese language.
David Hume, the great infidel phi
losopher, was once charged with in
consistency in attending upon the
ministry of John Brown, Scottish
minister, and he replied: 81 don't
believe all he says, but he does, and
once week like to hear a man
who believes what he says"
A recent work on the prayer book
says: Ceremonial obseryances are
only relative things, and they de-
pend upon time and place and char
acter, and even fashion. Liturgical
customs are, therefore, always and
of necessity in state of fux, and
attempts at enforcing uniformity,
whether Anglican or Tridentine, have
served to bring this fact out into
prominence. 1t could hardly be 9TH
erwise, for worship that has no free
dom is in imminent danger of be-
coming Journalism.

Persons contemplating journey East or
West should be careful that the rates paid
for their transportation do not exceed those
charged by the Nickel Plate Road.
This company always offers lowest rates
and the service is efficient. Careful at.
tention is given to the wants of all first
and second class passengers by uniformed
colored attendants. The dining car service
of the Nickel Plate Road is above criticism
and enables the traveller to obtain meals
at from thirty-6ve $3.50 cents to $l.OO but
no higher.
The Pullman service is the usual high
grade standard. Semi-weelly transconti.

the flock will expect to remain about
the building where they get their ra-
tons regularly.
Don't make the mistake that the
novice invariably does of starting the
turkeys on full rations of corn, and
particularly new corn, and expect
them to fatten and do well.
II given such treatment the change
is too great for the turkeys diges-
tive system, and the next thing are
turkeys ailing with bowel trouble.
The keeper must aim to keep sick
ness out of his flock, for the simple
reason that sick turkey invariably
is a dead turkey.
Start the turkeys on mixture of
equal parts corn, wheat and oats, and
unless the corn is new and unsea-
soned there will not be much trouble,
But, in order to get the turkeys to
eat such q combination, this mixture
must be placed in pans or similar
dishes, so there will be no chance for
the fowls to pick out the corn and
next the wheat.
After they have once become ac'
customed to eating all three grains
the sorting will be reduced to mini
mum, and the grain may be fed by
scattering.
Under this treatment the fatter
the turkeys get the quieter and more
docile they become.
As turkey gets into condition for
market the flesh begins to take on
beautiful golden color, and when
turkeys are fattened on the range in
this manner the flesh is mellow and
sweet, and commands the highest
price on any market.-C. p. Reynolds,
in Chicago Droyers' Journal.

FARMING AS A BUSINESS.
It-Laziness is No Bar to
Success.

AS business, farming is just whar
the farmer makes it. He can choose
a life of drudgery and privation, or
one of comfort and plenty. Although
there is enough work required on
farm to please the most Industrious
ly-inclined, in order to succeed, man
physically lazy may be the better
farmer of the two. In fact, some of
the best farmers we ever knew were
so pesliy lazy that they were contin'
ually planning how they might avoid
fatigue by procuring labor-saving inn
plements and devices that would min
imize physical exertion and studying
short routes to results. Some of our
worst farmers are up before the cock
crows, makes two or three trips to
and from the well hundred yards
away, then climb a ten-rail fence to
the horse lot, shuck the corn for the
team, take a plow-line in hand and
go out in the field to the fodder stack
and return with the necessary rough
age for the plow mules, and after a
breakfast of cornbread, fried bacon
and black coffee, hook a mule to a
single pillow and break an entire acre
in one day. To him labor-saving de-
vices are disreputable apologies for
laziness, and he hates lazy man MS
Methodist preacher is supposed to
hate Satan. The lazy man, if his head
is level, has planned his home with
special reference to saving labor.
Wood and water will be at hand
without the necessity of going out
of doors to get either. His barns and
stables will be similarly planned and
get up so early nor hustle so fast.
Then, instead of industrlously stun
bling over the clods in guiding and
following the plow, he bitches a fat
team to double disc plow, takes his
position on the spring seat, gathers
up his lines and lazily drives back
and forth until he has plowed two or
three times as much as his industri-
GUS nelpnDOI, ana hHOchS oH lOI tnc
day, or recreates himself with some
light but needed exercise about the
garden, orchard or elsewhere. All
through the seasons operations the
same difference prevails-the one la
boring assiduously and accomplishing
little-the other doing twice as much
werk with his head as he does with
his hands and accomplishes much. II
it rare combination if the farmer
happens to be Industrious with both
head and hands, and his success is
assured in all that he undertakes. But
If the mind is clear and active he will
find good substitute for the indus
try he may lack. No amount of phys
ical industry can ever make success
full farmer without the active aid of
the brain that thinketh.-TeXas Farm
