MoHLTR, Idaho. May 1.-THE
spring seeding will be completed in
the country adjacent to Mohler with
in the next ten days and farmers re-
gard the outlook for crops this year
most encouraging. The fall grain Is
looking better than ever before and
soil conditions are favorable to q
good spring yield.
The big per cent OF the spring
crop will be barley and oats. with
very little spring wheat. It is esti-
mated that SIS percent of the spring
acreage will be barley and 35 percent
is seeded to oats.
Al carload OF hogs was received to-
day by Purdee g. Stellman and will
be shipped ct once to coast deolers.
The price paid for this shipment is
6 LIZ cents, which Is about one cent
higher than the price last year. The
price Of hogs has been good during
the past year and farmers have made
large profits in feeding their grain.
d. v. Dowd. formerly cashier of
the Mohler State bank, is moving his
family to Nee Perez, where he has
accepted a position as cashier OF the
First National Bank of that place.
The fruit growers report good pros
poets for big yield OF all varieties
of fruits and unless damage is sus-
tanned by late frosts 1t is believed the
yield will be larger on the prairie
this year than ever before.

BAPTIST LAYMEN AROUSED.
Movement to Aid in World Evangel-
ization Launched.

Orangeburg, December Sat the
afternoon session today OF the state
Baptist Convention, mass meeting
was held to organize the Jay
mems movement. a call signed by
fifty prominent laymcn had Previous
u been issued. and when the meet
INC was called to order by DR.. f. G.
Quaitlcbaum there were about 250
men in the auditorium. a startling
statement was made by Mr.. Tyler,
secretary Of the National Laymen s
Movement for Southern Baptists,
when he declared that l3 cities had
already pledged to contribute $780,
600 more TO foreign missions in 1908
than they gave in 1907.
DR.. Quattiebaum explained the OBJ
ject of the meeting, and then asked
for the election of chairman. DR..
e. p. Covington, of Florence, was
elected. He, upon taking. the chair,
addressed the assembly upon the i'm
portance of the movement. W. r.
Wilkins led in a fervent prayer, es-
pecially asking tnat from among tine
sons and daughters Of the laymen
present the Lord would call mission
aries into the foreign field.
The Iaymen's movement is an il
terdcnominational movement which
cndcavors to enlist all laymen in
foreign mission work. The following
card is distributed anon" the men,
which they are asked to sign:
believing it to be the duty Of
the Church Of Christ to preach the
Gospel to every creature, it is my
purpose to pray, to give, to study and
to work, as'God may give me oppor-
tunity, that the Church Of this gener-
alton may obey this command"
1t is the effort of the laymen s
movement to evalgelize the whole
heather world in the next twenty
five years. The Baptist laymen Of
South Carolina spoke in no uncer-
tain terms on the subject. Several
short talks were made by business
mcl, and the movement took definite
shape.
j. Henry Tyler, member Of the
Baghy Furniture Company, of1Balti-

HalicfontaissA O.--Dr. Floyd
Swindley, Of Forest, o., who is blind
in both eyes, has gone to New York
to undergo a wonderful operation, by
which he hopes TO regain the sight
Of one Of his eyes.
His cyesight was destroyed years
ago in an explosion. The New York
doctors will graft on one of mis- eyes
a cornea taken from the eye Of an
other man, who is blind, but whose
cornea is not affected.
1t is hoped that the operation will
restore the Doctors sight.
If the attempt is successful, no
will try to find another man who is
willing TO part with a cornea, and
then he will have the use Of both Of
his eyes.
