Though the two branches of Method
ism have been singing the same hymns
and repeating the same doctrine in their
catechisms. the form has remained diff

practically no reason why the two
churches should not unite and become
a single organic body. This has been
the wish of many OF the members OF
both churches for a long time.
Step Toward Reunion.
II is thought that the adoption of the
same forms in both churches, as ar
ranged by the Joint commission, will be
a long step toward ultimate reunion.
The government Of the two churches
differs little. except in the power vested

they have this power Bishops. both

appointment and send the different min

used arbitrarily.

If he alternately abuses and patronizes people because they are Americans and ''roasts' them because they have the presumption to know anything about England, they are likely to get a hint as to his aa- tionality-and mere hint sometimes is sufficient.
 But Mir. Knowles must not conclude that Americans dislike their English cousins. Relatives invariably speak more plainly to each ether than to any body else. and MT. Knowles and those Of his type will always be admired in this country. Why? Because at all times and in all places and against all odds they are true to the land of their birth and refuse to forget that they are Englishmen.

Attention
Farmers.

Why remain ia the North
and stay in doors six months
in the year consuming what
you raise during the other
six months?
Go south where you can
work out doors every month
In the year, and where you
are producing something the
year round. If you are
stock raiser you know your
stock are now ''eating their
heads off" and, besides, have
to be protected from the RI
gors of winter by expensive
shelter.
Economical stock feeding
requires the combination Of
both flesh forming and fat
forming foods in certain pro.
portions. Alabama and
Florida produce in abundance
the velvet bean and casa va,
the first a flesh producer, and
they are the cheapest and
best fatening materials
known to the world.
More money can be made
and with less labor, in gener-
al farming, fruit and berry
growing and truck garden
ing along our road in the
South than in any other
section of the Union.
