Doing Gods Work.

Comparing Gods kingdom to a
well-regulated business enterprise in
which every person has his work as
signed to him, the Rev. Calvin Thomp
son at the First Baptist church drew
a strong picture of our methods Of
attending to Gods business at the
morning service yesterday. He said
that We should be more energetic,
should exercise more thought i'm God S
business than in the material affairs
of lie. but That the opposite is the
rule He said that Gods business
was specialized and that to every
person is assigned a task, which that
person alone can execute.

THE FRUIT TREE AGENT.

From now on until snow flies and per
haps later is the harvest season OF the
persistent perennial. reripatetic fruit
tree agent. While this chap is as wise
as a serpent, it cannot be said Of him
that he is as harmless as a dove He
is not gadding about over the country
for his health It's the Granger's coin
be is after, and he will ram just as
much Of it down his jeans as his own
nerve ana brass, coupled with his vic
TINS gullibility, make possible. He
usually does the most business in dis
tricts far removed from the nursery
ne represents, where he ana his house
are little known. In addition to being
guilty OF palming off on his ulsuspect-
positively knows will not grow in The
latitude where he offers them for SAFE
he often sells apple, plum and other
trees that are not at all true to name,
fraud that it may take years for the
buyer to uncover. In view Of a num-
Der Of rank frauds of this general type
that have come under our notice we
are convinced that the only safe courJe
to pursue is to give these fellows a
wide berth. They regard neither God
man nor the devil, much less their I'M
sophisticated would be victim. 1t is,
as rule, true that it usually costs po0-
pie who get swindled by these fellows
even if there are good grounds for
damages, more to recover what they
have lost than the amount involved in
the swindle. If these fellows should
talk you up to the point where you feel
you really must have an order of fruit
trees, politely tell them that you will
place it with your nearest reliable
nurseryman, who can be counted upon
ninety-nine times out Of a hundred to
give you better stock at Il much less
price.

POULTRY TESTS.

Until quite recently it has been left
to individual initiative and enterprise
to attend to the scientific development
of the poultry industry of the country
and tabulate the results obtained with
different breeds and under various con-
ditiOns of care and feeding. Within
the present year, however, the animal
husbandry section of the department Of
agriculture has undertaken a series of
experiments to determine the relative
value of different methods of feeding,
while the Iowa station has added a
regular poultry department in which
the egg producing capacity Of different
breeds will be given a careful test I'M
der the same conditions Of care and
feed. The aim in brief is to do for the
poultry interests of the country and
state what the station seeks to accom-
plish for the swine, sheep and cattle
interests through these respective de-
partments. The results obtained in
these poultry tests will be reliable and
impartial. inasmuch as they will not be
conducted with view to feathering
the nests of the raisers of this or that
particular breed

HARVESTING APPLES.

Our orchard experience this year
leads us to believe that it would be
advisable to make two pickings Of APP
pies at from two to three weeks
apart. The first time through the rip
est and largest fruit could be picked
off and marketed This would not
only result in saving practically all Of
the earliest maturing fruit, which usu-
ally falls to the ground and is wasted
but it would also serve to relieve the
tree and enable it to mature the re-
naming apples in much better shape
Where there are few apples on the tree
this would not be necessary, but
where the tree is overfull it is COM
PEELED by a natural law to drop much
of it's load before it can mature that
which remains. In such cases the two
pickings have much to commend
them
