The Highway to Happiness.

Let it be we'll remembered that no
byway of selfishness leads to happi-
ness Over the road of love and self
sacrifice and devout endeavor for the
good and happiness of others and only
that way lies the deep, safe haven of
an untroubled peace. A man, saith
Scripture. must give an account for
every idle word-that is, for words
that spring from a spirit Of irreverence
and religious sloth. How much more
shall God call him to a reckoning for
every unkind word, for every word
shadOwed and sharpened by spirit
Of bitterness, selfishness and gloom!-
Rev. DR.. Henry G. McCOok, Presbyte-
rian, Philadelphia.
Religion Of Gratitude,
Christianity is the religion Of graft
tude, and civilization Is the result Of
such teaching. The dominant note of
Confucianism Is loyalty to ancestry, to
divinely ordained government, and the
result is seen in the subdued, willy, un-
demonsrative Chinaman, who is the
compressed and suppressed product of
long years Of such stultifying educa-
ton. The dominant note of Moham-
mechanism and Buddhism is virtue
nodded into chara cters by care and ex-
act maxims, and the result is seen in
the fatalistic and negative character
istics of the Hindoo and the Turk.
The inner note Of Christianity is graf
itude expressed by joyful accents of
thanksgiving and praise, within the
compass Of law and authority, but i'm
posing no weight Of chains, and the
result is character and virtue and 10y
atty, but freed from slavish thraldom
and jubilant in it's attitude. - Rev.
Thomas Levan Bickel, Reformed
Church, Philadelphia.

FARMERS MONTH
AT WORLDS FAIR
Biggest Department of the Great EXPOSE.
ton Ready For the Inspection of the
Army of Men Who Made Its
Creation Possible.

Now that crops have been or are be-
ing laid by, the farmer prepares for his
trip to the Worlds Fair, treat that
has long been promised him and for
which he has patiently waited. No ex-
position has offered so many induce
ments for the farmers presence as this
one at st. Louis, nor has any previous
exposition given the prominence and
space to the subject of agriculture.
August and September are ostensibly
the farmers months at the Exposition
for it is at this season that the agricul-
ture exhibits are the freshest and best.
Products Of the new crops are pouring
into the booths from every state in the
Union, and additions are constantly
being made to the gorgeous display.
Headquarters for visiting farmers
may be found in every state section of
the great Agriculture Palace, but for
their special convenience there has just
been completed a Grange House, situ-
ated in the south end of the building.
1t is equipped with a reception room,
ladies' retiring rooms and check rooms,
where parcels may be left free of
charge. Here will be kept list of
moderate priced rooms TO aid visiting
farmers and their families in procuring
accommodations.
The largest building on the grounds
is the Palace Of Agriculture, covering
twenty acres, while the Palace of Hor-
ticulture near by covers about a third
as much space. These two immense
structures are filled with exhibits of
the farm, garden and orchard Of the
most extensive and elaborate character,
every state in the Union and most Of
the principal countries Of the world
being represented.
Agriculture is given more prominence
than any other department at the Ex-
position, the paramount Importance OF
this great industry having been fully
appreciated from the very beginning
of the Worlds Fair movement
About seventy acres of ground are
covered by the agriculture and horti-
culture department at the Fair. large
outdoor spaces being devoted to this
industry. Outside there are growing
crops, trees and flowers. an instructive
six acre farm maintained by the Unit
ed States Government Plant Industry,
and gardens in all parts Of the grounds.
There are more exhibits in the Agri-
culture building than in any other Sec
ton of the Exposition. This building
is considered by many people the most
interesting part of the Worlds Fair

HUMUS IN THE SOIL.

We are asked what humus is and its
relation to the soil. In word, it Is
simply decayed vegetable matter. Thus
all new soils, woodland or prairie, are
rich in this property, which results In
making them mellow, workable, pro-
ductive, the humus being the product
of decaying leaves, grasses and vege-
tation. AS soon as the soil is worked
and cropped there begins a steady
drain ON this property of the soil, the
removal of the crop each year prevent
ing any addition to the supply The
chief function of humus is to keep the
soil in that condition which will best
furnish plant food for growing vege-
tation. Where this element is lacking
the soil becomes like mortar in wet
time and bakes like a stone in dry
time. The application of barnyard fer
tilizer. the blowing under of green
crops and the growing of clover all help
to maintain the supply of humus.

APPLES THAT KEEP.

The entire west is deficient in varie-
ties of apples which are good keepers.
Hardly any known variety will hold up
without serious loss until March. The
Ben Davis, Willow Twig and IGNITION
will keep the longest, but they are none
of them high grade fruit. Improve
ments in methods Of cold storage have
naturally turned attention to 1t as
means of preserving better varieties OF
the apple for spring use. very in
teresting experiment was conducted
last winter at the Iowa experiment
station on this line, with the following
result: Twelve varieties of apples were
placed in cold storage on Sept. 10, and
the per cent of loss on Feb. IA was as
follows: Wealthy, 4; Fameuse, L; Wolf
River, Sc; Seek No Further, As; Jona-
than, %; Ben Davis, s; Janet, II; Ro-
mantle, A; Willow Twig, 6; White Pip
pin, 80; Roman Stem, 10; Domino, z.
Over a vast territory in the northwest
of the above list only the Wealthy,
Fameuse and Wolf River are safe trees
to plant, the others not being sufficient
ly hardy OF the entire list the Wealthy
in quality, appearance and productive
ness is easily at the head and may be
grown in perfection in Wisconsin,
Iowa. southern Minnesota and eastern
South Dakota. and with its splendid
keeping quality, as evidenced in the
foregoing test, the important question
of a supply of winter apples for the
west would seem to be solved.

POINTER FOR YOUNG MEN.

Just a pointer for the young man
who has got it into his noddle that two
people can live just as cheaply as one,
and who, so believing, is going to get
married as soon as he can: Young man,
you can't do it. 1t looks all right on
paper, but won't pan out in practice.
There are lots Of things which two
people must have which young man
can get along without. 1t is often true
that after a man is married he will
work harder and take better care of
his money, for he will find that he will
have to where there are two or more
to provide for. 1t is all right to get
married when you are properly stu
ated, but as a purely financial PROPOSE
ton it is q failure.
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1904-08-24

enough to occupy the attention Of Wis
itors for many days. Nothing to com.
pare with them was ever attempted be-
fore. They are the climax of several
decades of educational work which is
placing farming on a high plane and
is making scientific agriculture a pleas
ing reality.
The conspicuous role played by agri-
culture at the Worlds Fair should
bring untold benefits and wealth to
the farming community of the world
and impress all farmers with the i'm
portance and dignity of their calling.
Passing through these colossal build
ings, studying the attractive exhibits
and fascinated with the bewilderinS
encyclopedia of rural life which is
spread out before his eyes the Worlds
Fair visitor is impressed with the I'M
portant part the farmer plays in the
great world of industry, and every
farmer who views these interesting ex-
! hibits is given a new pride in his vo-
! cation if filled with inspiration and i'm
pressed with new ideas in harmony
with the progressive strides that farm
! ing has been making for the past few
! years. The visit will give an insight
into up to date farming on the most
approved plan and will bring new
hopes and blessings to the farm.
How properly to rotate crops, how to
get the best results. from fertilzing and
irrigation. how to protect crops and
fruit from the ravages of insects-all
, these and many more things of vital
! interest to farmers and fruit growers
are taught at the Worlds Fair.
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1904-08-24
END OF THE LAND BOOM.

The question is asked us why 1t IS
that while two years ago the demand
for good farm land was so sharp that
there were q half dozen buyers after
every farm offered for sale and very
few for sale at all there should now
be plenty of farms for sale and but
very few buyers, and this when there
is only very slight decline in the mar
ket value of farm products and the
farm for all purposes just as good an
investment as it was two years ago.
AS all well know, the country is past
the boom period which began in 1896.
In all such boom periods the last thing
to be affected is land, and it is hardly
too much to say that two years ago
all were crazy on real estate. This
craze has subsidized, and the country is
now settled down to period of liqui-
dation, with the feather edge of specu-
lation all gone. If a farm is sold now
| it is sold for what 1t will produce and
not what the buyer hoped to get for il
! by selling it again. The advance Ill
the value of farm land incident to the
boom is, however, pretty well main
tanned. There is simply a lack of buy
erS.
