Rain Beneficial to Wheat.

Nearly every section of the state has
had more or less rainfall in the past
week. The rain was not needed in
the Red river valley proper, but it
comes at an opportune time to start
the wheat evenly and pack the soil
after seeding. Conditions all through
the state have been greatly benefited
by the moisture and the outlook is very
encouraging because of the large
acreage and the early date at which
the wheat was sown. In some Sec
tions of the state quite a heavy snow
fall was recorded and it proved fully
as beneficial to the crops as did the
rain.

ITEMS OF A WEEK FROM VARIOUS
PARTS OF THE STATE.
Recent Developments Indicate That
the Red River Valley University
May Not Be Removed
From Wahpeton,

Recent developments in the Red
River Valley university removal con-
troversy indicate that the matter will
be finally adjusted to the satisfaction
of those interested in the school, and
that the university will remain in
Wahpeton. For four or five months
the Methodists Of the state have been
agitated by the talk Of removal. and
many towns in the state have had am
bitions to be the home of the Methodist
institution. The agitation was start
I'D by DR.. Robertson, president of the
Wahpeton school, and President Merri-
field of the state university, who
evolved a plan for attiliating the two in
stitutions. The school at Wahpeton
was to be closed and the Methodists
were to build small building on the
state university campus and pay two
or three professors who were to teach
Bible history and other branches not
In the curriculum of the state school.
At z meeting of the board of trustees
In March 1t was voted to move. but to
what place was not decided. Since
that time opposition to the Grand
Forks plan has been growing stronger,
and at a meeting two weeks ago the
board of regents of the state university
refused to indorse the memoranda en-
tered into by the presidents of the
two institutions. This action prac-
tically kills the afftliation idea. It ap-
pears that DIR. Robinson is now willing
to work with Wahpeton in an attempt
to retain the school, provided Wahpe-
ton will be liberal in its support. and
provided he and the local church men,
bers can come to an amicable agree
ment. The Commercial club has the
affair in charge and liberal subscrip-
tions are coming in.

Now, Mr.. Pratt,
Where are you at, ="
In this postoffice middle?

Now, Mr.. Pratt,
where are you at,
In this postoffice muddle?
1t seems to me
And you'll agree
a stone has stirred the puddle.
Who threw the rock,
That gave the knock,
That sent your hopes a-kiting?
Dear Mr. Pratt,
Pray tell me that;
Suspense is too exciting.
We want to know,
AS on you go,
What jolted your ambition?
To us, back here,
1t seems a queer,
Ambiguous position.
And, Mr.. Pratt,
Will you stand pat?
Or get out of the running?
Then calmly wait,
And nurse your hate,
Till you can go a-guming?
Revenge is sweet,
And it is meet
To take it where you find it;
But still, take care,
Lest some one dare
Seek his revenge behind it.
The story goes
Under the rose,
That politics is in it;
Now is that so?
And do you know
Which statesman did begin it?
Will you be slain
That he may gain
In petty, party striving?
Or will you rise,
To his surprise.
To show you still are thriving?
Revenge is sweet,
If taken neat;
But, Pratt, you must remember,
The man whose day
Is lost in May
May win out in November.
So. Mr. Pratt,
Where are you al"
In this postofice muddle?
What will you do,
Now tell us, true,
To him who stirred the puddle?

Stand By The Exchange.

A considerable number of members
of the Peninsula Produce Exchange
listened to an address on potato grow
ing by Mr.. William Z. Thomas, Of
Nassawadox, Va, in the Court House.
Wednesday morning. Mr.. Thomas also
addressed meeting in Berlin in the
afternoon. He is an all-round practical
farmer, right from the potato country
He did not deal in theories, but gave
our farmers the benefit of his individual
experience in growing round and sweet
potatoes. Mr.. Thomas also related the
experiences Of the Virginia Produce
Exchange after which the Peninsula
Produce Exchange is modelled. He said
that when their Exchange was organized
it was the subject of much ridicule and
Misrepresentation by commission meu
and their agents; they also were antago-
nized by the banks to large extent,
these being influenced by the buyers of
potatoes who were large patrons of the
banks They preserved, however, and
the Exchange has proven god-send to
the potato growers of Northampton and
Accomac Counties. Before the Ex-
change was organized the growers were
compelled at times to sell their potatoes
as low as 25c. barrel. but since their
organization they have not had to accept
such prices. because they have created
new markets and are not subject to the
rake off of middle men. He advised
our farmers to stand by the Peninsula
Produce Exchange and not to listen to
outside argument. Mr.. Thomas paid a
high compliment to Secretary and
Treasurer w. G Cullen. He says Mr.
Cullen knows his business and was con-
sidered one of the most competent and
trusted employees of the Virginia Elk
change when he left them to accept his
present position. President Orlando
Harrison was present at the meetings
in Princess Anne. Pocomoke, Snow

Makes the Lord aBeggar.

Last Sunday a Baltimore preacher
Numbered against festivals, bazars,
fairs, etcetera to raise money for Christ
cause. Every Christian in his heart
knows the preacher is right and cannot
but admit the wrong of compelling the
Lord to beg for his own This minister
of Christ-Rev. Peter Ainslee-said
"Giving our money is named in the
Scriptures as grace by the side of the
graces of faith, utterance, knowledge.
earnestness and love. Consequently the
handling OF our money is a religious SER
vice. and no knowledge is more sacred
than that which teaches us the relation
ship that we sustain to our money and
the reasons thereof. Under the old Tesla
ment regime both the priests and the
people were required to give one-tenth.
and the promise was that there was a
great blessedness in it.
Whatever men may do in going be-
yond this. Christianity does not permit
men to do less. Instead of systematic
giving. churches today resort to fairs.
bazars, suppers and all kinds of enter.

waiting the grace of giving, which we
are commanded to do. The church is rich
and increasing rapidly in wealth, and
yet she to frequently sits as a beggar
before the community, and with all
kinds of signs on her doors, calling upon
the benevolently disposed public Ia
give little money for her existence.
This is carried on to such a wholesale
extent that it appears in the eyes of
many that this is the chief business of
the church.
THE whole thing is disgraceful and
belittling to the religion of suffering
and curcified Christ. 1t savors of world.
illness and stinginess. No person would
put out such a sign to raise money to
pay his own rent or taxes, but we do
not hesitate to make the Lord beggar
of public charity. We Christians must
aim to give Christianity its ancient and
proper setting.
Giving is worship and the most sac.
red worship when it is done cheerfully.
