The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-06-16

Epistle to Timothy while on his visit
in Macedonia, the Epistle to Titus
while in Ephesus, and the Second
Epistle to Timothy while in his pris-
on dungeon at Rome, undergoing his
second imprisonment.
Paul and Timothy.-The Second
Epistle to Timothy possesses a ten
der and pathetic interest. 1t is the
last known letter of the aged apostle,
and it is directed to one who for
many years had shown himself to be
a loving and devoted follower. In
deed, the relation subsisting between
Paul and Timothy was like that be-
tween an elder and a younger broth
er r perhaps still more like that of
father and son. Timothy had been
converted under the preaching of
Paul, probably on the first mission
airy Journey. He went with Paul to
Europe on the second missionary
journey, and seems to have been a
close companion and fellow-laborer
through all the rest of Paul's life.
He joined in the salutations of many
of Pauls Epistles, toiled with him
during the three years in Ephesus,
and was with him during his first i'm,
prisonmsnt. After PauPs release
Timothy was placed in charge of the
church at Ephesus, where he remain
ed until his own death by martyr
dom.
A Faithful Charge.-Paul's words
to Timothy in the closing portion of
the Second Epistle may be taken as
an early example of what is now
called "the charge to the pastor" in
a modern installation service.
In his charge Paul bids Timothy
abide in the study of the Divine
Word. In other words, he bids him
be true to the Bible. Paul exhorts
his young disciple to be true in the
sight of God and of the Lord Jesus
Christ. Again the apostle appeals
to the young pastor to be earnest in
his appointed work. He is to preach
the Word; be instant in season., out
of season.: to reprove, rebuke and
exhort with all long suffering and
doctrine. In brief, he is to be true
to his calling. Finally Paul reminds
his young brother of the reward
which is laid up for those who are
faithful, that is the crown of right
eousness which is so soon to rest
upon his beloved father in spiritual
things.

NOTES ON THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON FOR JUNE ri.
Paul's Charge to Timothy.
2 Timothy 3:14 to 4:8.


Golden Text.-There is laid up
for me a crown of righteousness. 2
Timothy As.
Having adopted the theory of two
Roman capitvities in the life of
Paul, it becomes pertinent for us to
inquire what occurred between the
first and second imprisonments.
PauIs Travels During His Re
lease.-Our knowledge as to PauTs
doings during the time that elapsed
between his release from prison at
the close of the two years referred
to in the last verses of the Acts and
his subsequent r~e-arrsst must be
CLEANED entirely from scattered ref
erences in the Epistles. Taking what
Paul has written in these Epistles
as to what he hoped to do, and also
his direct statements as to some of
his actual movements, we find indi-
cations of quite an extended itin-
erary.
In his admirable volume entitled,
"a Harmony of the Life of ST.
Paul." Rev. F. j. Goodwin has put
Pauls journeyings during this period
under two Observation-Disclosures, his
conjectural, and second, his anthem
tic travels.
Under the first division are placed
PauPs visits to Philippi, Colossae,
Laodicea, Hierapolis and Spain.
These visits are inferred or c%onjec-
tured from scattered references in
the Epistles to the Romans, Phile-
mon, Colossians and Philippians.
Under the second division are
placed Paul's visits to Ephesus, Mac
edonia, Crete, Miletus, Troas, Cor
NTH and Nicopolis. The knowledge
of these authentic travels" is OBJ
tanned from the contents of the Pas
toral Epistles.
The Pastoral Epistles.-The First
and Second Epistles to Timothy and
the Epistle to Titus have been called
the Pastoral Epistles, because they
were written to two young pastors,
and discuss the duties of the Chris
tian ministry. Of these Epistles, it
is believed that Paul wrote the First

AMERICA BEHIND OTHER NATIONS IN
HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT.

Annual Expenditures Here and In
European Countries For Good
Roads-COSt OF Building Highways
In Some of Our States.
The United States does not begin to
spend the amount OF money upon ita
public highways that it costs to con.
struct and maintain the public roads
of England and European countries.
While this country leads the world in
Its railroads and street railways, it is
far behind most countries across the
Atlantic in its system Of public high.
ways. England and Wales spend an
nually $2O,000,000 on their roads, Ire
land 100000, France $37, 100000
while the United States, the pioneer of
all nations in public improvements, the
leader OF the world in devising and
perfecting plans to add to the comfort
and welfare of mankind, lags in the
race with the disgraceful record of
spending $4,000 upon its federal plan
of public road Improvement.
This does not include, of course the
annual expenditures Of the various
states of the Union, says the Buffalo
Express. If these sums were included.
the comparison would not be so unfa-
vorable, for there will be expended this
year close on to $10,000,O0O throughout
the country for the betterment of pub.
lie highways. Moreover the outlook
for the future is exceedingly bright.
The possibilities are that by the end Of
another decade the combined expendi-
lures of the federal government and
the various states will equal $5O,0OO,-
600 q year for the construction and
maintenance Of public highways.
There are fully 200 good roads or
CARNATIONS, national, state and coun.
ty. in the United States. The associa-
ton that is doing the most work for
the betterment Of highways through
out the country is that known as the
American Roadmakers. The member
ship of this association is limited to
ten influential men in each state, one
OF the provisions Of it's constitution be-
ing that there shall not be more than
ten members from each state.
When New Jersey, which was the
pioneer state in the good roads move.

been recognized as among the most
progressive states of the Union in this
regard, each expanding 100000 a year
on the improvement of it's roads.
The state Of Georgia is, perhaps, the
most progressive among the southern
states. For number Of years it has
employed large amount of prison la
Dor in the construction Of it's roads,
using prisoners, both black and white,
in crushing stone and in constructing
the roads. The system Of employing
prison labor has been so successfully
carried out that it has been adopted
in other states.
A most interesting good roads cam
paign is being conducted in the state Of
Michigan by Senator Earle. The sen
ator has equipped good roads train,
consisting Of a traction engine, FIVE
small cars for carrying stone and a
stone crushing plant, all Of which is
drawn by the traction engine, which
is also converted into a road roller
and is employed in finishing he road.

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Keeping Seed Potatoes.

have kept their potatoes, intended for
seed. Selecting them when digging!
they store them in a dry shed or barn
until the weather gets cold. -AbVHk re
middle Of November they sort them. ~
jecting all that show signs Of decay.
They then spread a layer of straw
eight or ten inches thick upon the
ground and place the potatoes on this.
The best results are from mounds
about three feet wide at the base and
rising like cone to about the same
height. This is covered with straw
and then by layer Of soil from six To
eight inches thick. Before the wealth
er gets too severe more soil may be
added, and when the ground Is frozen
put on more straw or strawy manure.
They seem to winter much better than
In cellars or when put In mounds or
pits as soon as dry. We should say
that we think it would not injure the
termination Of the sprouts If the tu-
bers were frozen solidly in such
mound if they were not disturbed iin.
til they had thawed out in the earth In
the darkness. We have plowed out
potatoes in the spring that had lain
within six inches of the surface Of the
ground all winter, where the ground
had been frozen two or three feet
deep, and they were apparently as
sound and fresh as those dug In the
