Will Not Reduce Acreage Of To-
bacc0.

The Kentucky Burley Tobacco
Growers Association has declined
to unite with the Dark Tobacco
Growers Association of Tennessee
in movement to reduce the acre
age of tobacco in the tobacco belt,
with a view to maintaining high
prices and forcing the combine to
hustle for its supply.
The announcement has been re-
ceived that the Tennessee associa-
tion has induced large majority
of its members to reduce their acre
age 30 per cent. and that, owing to
the scarcity of help, the crops are
likely to be cut still below this
amount.
1t was suggested that the crop be
curtailed, thus giving the various
big consumers of leaf tobacco no
opportunity to force down the price
of the weed.
This plan is not encouraged for
the reason that the Burley Grow
ers' Association last year demon
strated that if it could not secure
the millions of dollars needed to
handle the entire crop it could at
least sustain the price Of tobacco ct
figures that would be beneficial to
the grower
With this faith in the strength
of the organization the growers in
the Kentucky Burley belt have
planted big crops instead of re-
stricting their acreage.

Thinking to Death.

Thousands of people actually
think themselves to death every
year by allowing their minds to
dwell on morbid subjects.
The idea that one has some in
eipient disease in ones system,
the thought of financial ruin, that
one is getting on IN life without
improving prospects-any of these
or a thousand similar thoughts
may carry healthy man to a pre-
mature grave. A melancholy
thought that fixes itself upon ones
mind needs as much doctorlng as
physical disease. 1t needs to be
eradicated from the mind or it will
have just the same result as
neglected disease would have.
Every melancholy thought,
every morbid action and every
nagging worry should be resisted
to the utmost, and the patient
should be protected by cheerful
thoughts, of which there is boun-
tiful store in every ones posses
sion. Bright companions are
cheaper than drugs and plasters.
The morbid condition of mind
produces a morbid condition of
body. and if the disease does hap
pen to be in the system it receives
every encouragement to develope.
We need more mental stimulus and
less worry.

Worlds Week Of Prayer for the
Lords Day.

Sunday Reform Associations in
all lands have appointed April Both
to May 7th, 1905, inclusive, as the
Worlds Week of Prayer for the
Lords Day. Just before the sum-
mer flood of Sabbath breaking, we
are called every year to protect the
imperilled Lords Day by week of
prayer and prevention. Let us re-
call gratefully as one of the sur
viving gifts of the lost Paradise the
Sabbath which was from the very
beginning divinely "made for man."
and which is therefore not to be
considered as Hebrew but human
and humane. Let us ponder the
profound significance of the fact
that in the God-given Ten Com
mandments, the keystone, largest
of all, is the Sabbath command
ment, the breaking of which leads
to the breaking of others and the
keeping of which leads to the keep
ing of the others.
We. should remember that Jesus
taught us to observe the weekly
Sabbath, and by an act that was in
