Conversations of Pastors.

From an open letter in the February Century.
In the ministry, service and salary
are not equal terms. The high office
was not created for the advantage of
the holder, and the calling is degraded
into a mere profession when it is made
the subject of money equivalents. The
work of the ministry is more especially
in the realm of the moral and spiritual,
and therefore can never be financial
ly compensated in any exhaustive COM
mercial sense" Nevertheless, the
minister adapted by conduct and learn
ing to his high calling ordinarily does
have, and should have, a slaary proper
tomato to the demands of the field he
is tilling, and compensations far more
satisfying and worthy of consideration
than salaries.

The Pe-ru-na Almanac.

The druggists have already been
supplied with Pe-ru-na almanacs.
There is sure to be great demand for
these almanacs on account of the arti-
cles on astrology which they contain.
The subject of astrology is a very attrac-
tive one to most people. The articles
on astrology in the Peruna almanac
have been furnished by a very compe-
tent astrologist, and the mental char
acteristics of each sign is given, consti-
tuting almost complete horoscope.
A list of questions and answers on
astrology cent free upon request. There
will be a great rush for these books.
Ask your druggist for one early before
they are all gone.

POISONING Gophers.

Pocket-gophers are easily poisoned.
They are very fond Of common pota.
toes, sweet potatoes, apples. raisins
and prunes, says D. E. Lantz OF the
Kansas station The presence OF
strychnine. arsenic or other poisons
does not seem to deter them from
eating the food; but If the poison is
sweetened they seem to eat it more
readily. In summer it may be desir-
able to take the trouble to sweeten
the poison. but in the fall and early
spring It does not seem worth while
to do this. The poisoned food being
introduced to the burrows below the
surface, there is no danger Of poison
ing the stock. It might be well, how
ever, not to let swine run IN the alfalfa
fields for a time after the poison has
been put out The following method
Of introducing the poison Is recon-
mended; Cut the potatoes OF other

fourths Of an inch In diameter. Cut
a slit in each piece and with the point
OF the knife blade insert q little sui.

Value Of cood-slzed Seed.
A plant has inherited its internal
and vital power from all the crops
through which it came-all the ances-
tors through which it ascended or de-
scended, says Professor Robertson Of
Canada An appreciation of the in
herited as well as the acquired power
Of plants win be Of assistance in select
ing the kind Of seed that win do best
on each farmers land. What l want
to make clear Is the difference In the
vigor of growth between the seeds Of
the same variety when sown in differ
ent localities. and the diference-the
amazing diiferenee-in the productive
ness Of selected large, plump seeds
over small seeds OF the same variety
The seed Of a cereal is a plant 10
embryo, and a store Of food for the
nourishment Of the young plant after
It wakens into activity (germinates), f,
and until 1t takes In food through its
rootlets and leaves The termination
Of the seed Is not the so-ealled crea-
ton Of life. That happened when the
plant was fertilized; and the seed is
an embryo, with a store Of food lying
close by it and within the same skin.
The store Of food which composes the
greater part Of the seed is for the
maintenance OF the young plant until
it is able to take nourishment through
its leaves and rootlets. A young plant
is wakened up as soon as the moisture
and warmth are sufficient. and its
food close by is prepared under the
same conditions.
Sometimes an embryo plant Is i'm.
perfectly formed and weak: and tests
show that imperfectly ripened seeds,
under ordinary conditions, do not give
nearly as good a crop as fully ripened
seeds in each Of which both the en-
bryo and its food have been fully pre-
pared. Those seeds which germinate
most quickly are the best, and it has
been proven over and over again that
heavy seeds give larger and better
crops than small seeds Of the same
sort. This has been proven over and
over again. The reason seems to be
that in one case large seeds) the sup
ply Of food for the young plant is
plentiful when it most needs it, while
in the other case (small seeds) the
food supply may be insufficient tc
nourish the young plant adequately al
the most critical time when It Is ten
der and struggling for survival. Un
der the most favorable conditions Of
temperature, moisture and food sup
ply in the soil, small seeds might give
as much in crop as large seeds. On
comparatively poor land, in unfavor
able seasons, Is where the small seeds
give their worst returns. The farmer
who has rich soil in a fine condition
of tilth is the only one who can afford
to SOW small seeds. and the risk ol
comparatively small crops is greai
even then.
