These results are not only of scien-

persist for over year in clean water.

These autumn days are certainly

Wonderful! There is that lulling peace,
that supernatural quiet, that blissful

SQUIRT GUN PHILOSOPHY.

OF all the deductive moralizing
Smith, the suggestion that hereafter
when America" is sung, the crimes Of
the son of the author OF the national
hymn will be recalled, is the farthest
fetched. 1t may be possible that there
are those upon whom the magnificent
patriotism of America will
be lost while they rummate
upon the downfall Of the son
OF the man who wrote it, but these
are certainly few. Perhaps there may
be u few Americans to whom the sight
OF the flag invariably recalls Benedict
deed any such exist. The flag stands
for the greatness and integrity OF pat
riotism. 1t brings memories Of faith
fulness and lives lived for what it
represents, and the inspiration of emu
lation. None look for fly specks on the
flag decoration day or the Fourth of
July.
So with the splendid hymn that S.
II. Smiths father gave to his country.
1t does not belong to its author and
no act of his or Of his son can sully
it's splendor. America" will be sung
with uplifted hearts and faces, for a
thousand years. The petty enbezzler
and his crime are already forgotten.
Any attempt to paint the bar sinister
of an embezzler among the armorial
bearings of the national hymn, is false
heraldry. Let US not go out of our
way to splatter mud at magnificence,
or aim squirt gun at the sun.

TYPHOID GERMS IN PURE wA1ER7

In view of the epidemfcs Of typhoid
fever which have afflicted several Iowa
cities this season the contention Of
Konradi, a German bacteriologist, is OF
peculiar interest to the cities thus af-
fected. It is almost universally ac-
knowledged that water is carrier of
infection, and that the micro-organism
OF disease may be contained in what
is apparently pure, uncontaminated
spring water. 1t is, however, not gem
orally known that those organisms may
live for long periods in such water ana
retain their full virulence. Indeed, the
opinion generally held and borne out
by the literature on this subject is that
pathogenic bacteria, though they may
live for a time in clean water, can
multiply little If at all and tend to
die out rapidly. To this fact is at
tributed the frequent failures encoun-
tered by psychologists who have at
tempted to isolate such bacteria from
drinking water. The short life of
pathogenic bacteria in water is sup
posed to be due to the unt'avorable en-
vironment to the action of sunlight,
extremes of temperature, currents in
the water, but above ell to the compe-
ton of the harder water bacteria and
the absence of proper nutriment
Konradi, the German investigator,
as quoted in Public Opinion, challenges
these statements, and as result of his
experiments, aserts that water is an
excellent medium for many pathogenic
micro organisms, and that, in the long
run. it is they which survive and the
water bacteria which succumb. He
proceeds from the statement made by
Mez, namely, that these organisms live
longer in pure water than in dirty wa
ter, and that, therefore, pure drinking
water, once infected, is more dangerous
than is foul water. The bacteria chos-
en- by Konradi for experimentation
were the anthrax bacillus and its
spores, the Etaphyloccus pyogenes au-
reus and the typhoid bacillus. In all
these experiments 1t was found that or
binary bacteria present in the tap
water multiplied greatly for time,
but then began to die out, and that.
after varying periods, the water kept
at room temperature was found to con-
tain pure culture of the pathogenic

The Clergy and Divorce.

The Clergy and Divorce.
A Methodist minister writes to the
T.-R.: The Baptist clergymen, in
convention in Marshalltown last week,
passed resolutions which say In eff
feet that every man who voted for
them will use all the moral influence
he. has in the neighborhood in which
he is living, against the divorce evil.
The Rock River conference Of the NJ.
e. church, in session In Chicago, re-
Gently passed similar resolutions. The
Episcopal general convention in Bos-
ton recently sent forth no uncertain
sound as to where that great church
stands on the divorce evil.
"These are only few of the religious
bodies which are fighting this enemy
of the home.
Turnout the country divorce is
granted generally for light and trivial
causes and in short time is followed
by remarriage of one or both parties,
and a case has been known where q
man was married who. had been mar

Difficulty Of Preaching Sermons.
Bishop Weldon, Of the Church OF
England contributes to the current
Nineteenth Century a polished and
entertaining essay on Difficulty Of
Preaching Sermons" One of the main
difficulties with modern sermons saws
he, Is that
The subject is practically the same:
1t may be treated in many ways, and
in many manners, but it is one. "The
old, old story" beautiful and sacred
as it is in itself, lacks and cannot but
lack special interest of novelty. What
a preacher says, and must say TODAY.
has been said by thousands of lips in
thousands of ways during nineteen CEN
turtles. That it is important, august,
and sublime is perfectly true, but it IS
not novel. All that the most original
of preachers can aspire to do is to shed
a little fresh light upon well known
and well worn truths. No doubt there
have been times when the Gospel
came to men as something new. 1t was
so, of course, in apostolic days. 1t has
been so when an age Of religious en-
thusiasrn has succeeded an age of re-
ligious indifference. It is told Of Louis
XIV that one day he asked the poet
Boileau what kind Of a preacher was a
certain ecclesiastic whom all the Par
isian world at that time was running
after. Boileau replied: 'Your mai
esty knows that every one runs after
a novelty. This Is a preacher who
breaches the Gospel" But this is a
state of things happily rare; 1t occurs
only now and then in the crisis Of the
church. For the most part men and
women are not surprised by the nov
city, but rather wearied by the famil-
iarity of the preachers message.

AMERICAN FARMERS REAL BUSINESS.

Before the association of American
grain dealers at Milwaukee at its latest
meeting one of the speakers made the
assertion that eve may expect within
q comparatively few years to see the
United States give place to Canada as
the chief wheat producing country OF
the world" Some Of the principal
reasons given for this conclusion was
the steadily increasing immigration
into Canada Of American farmers, the
development of transportation lines
thru the Canadian wheat belt and the
gradual failure in production of Amer
acan wheat lands.
This development Of Canadian wheat
fields is emphasized by the statistics
OF that country's increased grain pro-
duction. In 1900 the wheat crop OF
western Canada was not over 20,00O,-
900 bushels, but in 1908 It was about
%. 00O, 900 bushels. A vast area, estl-
mated at 100000 acres is suitable for
wheat. On this area, at Manitobas
rate Of production, the crop should be
over 500 100000 bushels, or much more
than the United States produces
The yield is high in Canada, often
reaching IS bushels to the acre. In
1903 the average was for the United
states 1919 bushels per acre. for Min
nssota 1871 bushels. for northwest Can
ada 10 bushels, and for Mpnitoba 1874
bushels. Besides wheat, other grains
are largely produced, as, for example,
5000, 900 bushels Of oats and 100000
OF barley.
The wheat fields of the United States
are becoming restricted, rot entirely
because the soil refuses to produce this
cereal, but because other crops are
more profitable. Wheat has been the
dependence Of the prairie pioneer In
this country. 1t was the main crop
Of Illinois forty years ago, as 1t was
or Iowa few years later. Dollar
wheat is a highly profitable crop on $40
land one year with another, but the
Iowa or Illinois farmers who attempted
to make wheat growing his business,
even If he might be assured Of an av-
erage crop, would be on the straight
road to sheriff's sale. Corn and cows,
fat hogs and cattle, have crowded
wheat growing farther and farther in
20 the northwest until western Canada
with It's cheap lands has fallen heir to
the industry. Intensified agriculture
and wheat-growing do not belong to-
gether.
There is little in the prediction OF
the Milwaukee speaker to worry over.
Let Canada grow the wheat and let
us grind it. Our corn and livestock
i and dairy, interests are more profitable
and better suited to the necessities
enforced by rising land prices. The
sections where farmers are all well to
do are In the corn belt, not the wheat
sections. Few men grow rich raising
ing wheat on high priced, farms, but
there are multitudes Of wealthy cattle
and hog feeders and dairymen on 500
an acre farms. Let Canada grow
the wheat If she can. The United
States will go on in the livestock and
dairy business, thank you.
