RAILROADS AND
RAILROADING.
Rev. Harkncss Delivers Practical Sermon
Other Ministers.

Rev. A. M. Hardness gave two help
full sermons last Sunday to good audienc-
es both afternoon and evening. In the
evening he had given the ra lroad boys a
special invitation, announcing as his sub.
ject Railroads and Railroading.' The
whole discourse was a comparison be-
tween the railroad and the human life,
drawing many practical lessons therefrom.
Hi took as his text Pslams 1o4: "a. He
said the track had been laid for one spe-
ial purpose, to run trains over and that
trains could not run any other way, Every
life has path mapped out for it on which
it must run or it is a wreck. Many souls
are failures because they're off the track.
The track begins somewhere. So with
the path of human life, it has definite
beginning and definite ending. That
boy roaming arouni the streets is 60
ing nowhere. Are you flinging your boys
out in the world to become wrecks? How
many of the parents take no interest
whatever in the work CT the school, to see
that the boys and girls are progressing
and taking an interest in the work of the
school,
The idea of a railroad too, leads you
back to the organization which built it.
When you stand beside life it takes
you back to the Greater who made it.
The railroad builders had faith in the
country through which they build. Has
the Creator faith in you and your life?
The sections hands keep the track in
repair. Are YOU keeping in touch with
the Creator and in repair? 1t is the ener.
gy of human life which improves and
developes a country and so it is the dew
elopment of soul life which opens up the
real life of man.
The railroads have general plan and
also a daily plan. As read my Bible |
find not only general plan but also a
daily plan mapped out for my life.
The instructions are just as clear and
definite as the orders to the trainmen
There are warnings as clear as the whis
tie, the sign boards and the special mes
Sages. The engineer and the firemen rep
resent the intellect and power of the train
and the conductor the relgio US guidance
and heart life.

POINTS ON FEEDING

Ing the prime bacon hog, says National
Stockman. AS long as bacon hogs are
not selling as high as fat hogs In this
country, however. our feeders will
stick to corn. It's good enough for the
market hog, and 1t makes him good
enough for the market.
Food value of Tankage.
Tankage has been used in feeding
tests ut number OF the experiment
stations with good results, says Breed
er's Gazette. At the Iowa station the
profit per bushel OF corn fed to fatten-
ing hogs was materially advanced by
the use of tankage. Hog raisers who
have used 1t as rule speak favorably
of the results, though there are some
exceptions.
Feed For Work Horses.
We should always remember, says
Professor w. \. Henry of the Wis
cOnsin Agricultural college, that oats
form the ideal grain food for the horse.
The kernel proper contains large
amount Of nutrimcnt. The hulls sur
rounding the grain give the material
bulk. tending thereby to prevent over
feeding, ana at the same time render
ing the food light and easy Of digestion

horses are hard worked one should de.
