Peter thought that 1t meant some.
thing to be a Christian. He saw in
that life a company of people whom
God had set apart to a special work
They were brought into a closer re.
lation to the King than others were,
and so had access to him In their ca.
pacity of priests. By this fact EN-
phasis was to be laid upon the fact,
not that they were a nation, but that
they were a holy nation. In this
fact also they would become "a peo.
pie for Gods own possession The
great purpose TO be wrought out In
them was that they who had been so
small should be mpde q nation OF
such a character that they could
show forth the praises of the One
who has done such great things for
them. In Matthew, Christians are
called to a life whose one idea is holi
ness. However dear a thing may be,
it Is to be set aside If it interferes
with the development Of a holy char
acter. The reference in Corinthians
should be very carefully studied by
the young people. Yoklng up with
the world is the weakening of the
church always. To abstain from
all appearances of evil' is the only
safe way to live. The world dis.
counts a persons Christianity if It
does not separate him from the
world. We can't afford to sacrifice
the Fatherhood Of God for the sake
Of tying up to the world. In the
final reference God sets love working
in the heart as the means of work
ing out character that shall be "un
blama1le in holiness before God"
Every person has an Ideal. There
is something in each life that be-
comes the practical standard of liv
ing. That standard or ideal is a
great determining factor in shaping
that life. Low ideals make low lives.
The great sin of many lives is not in
the positive wrongs that they do, but
in their low aims. Our condemna
ton is not to be found in the low
station in which we are born, but the
low station we are content to remain
in.
II is surprising how many are con
tent with the second-rate achieve
ments and with low aims. There
are comparatively few of us that hold
ourselves to the standard we ought
to set for ourselves. A glimpse of
possible service dawns upon us and
we make a feeble effort to realize 1t,
and then lapse into indifference. No
man has done entirely right until he
has done his best to reach his best.

course requires more work, but the
result is that when the ground is
plowed in the fall 1t will break up
nice and mellow, whether there has
been much rain or not, since the
binder harvesting a former crop
passed over 1t.
Another result is that the ground
IS in such good condition to receive
the seed for the next crop that scarce
ly more than one-half of the seed
sown under the old method need be
sown under the new system of soil
culture, since the ground being mel
low and moist every grain has an op-
portunity to sprout and reproduce it.

Notes For the Farmer.

The judges at the International
very kindly gave to the King of Eng
land a prize for one of his shire
horses. This is very nice compli-
ment to pay to King, but a good
many judges of horses say that the
animal which took the prize was not
entitled to it.
One objection to the steam plow is
that 1t enables Western farmers to
put in more wheat than they can har-
vest 1t is now up to the manufac-
turers to invent some sort of rapid
fire harvester that will take care of
the wheat after the steam plow has
done its duty.
The prize steer at the Interna-
tional was raised by a plain every
day farmer. He puts on no frills
about anything, but knows his busi-
ness from start to finish. There are
thousands of boys on farms in this
country who can raise just as good
steers as he did, If they first learn
how.
Some people make hobby Of their
chickens. Well, there is no higher
mission of humanity than to induce
men and women to ride some hobby
that will make them forget the cares
OF business for while each day. Let
the hobby be chickens, ducks, tur-
keys, pigeons or anything that will
take them out into the fresh air and
sunshine, away from the enervating
atmosphere of four walls and a roof.
II one of the boys on the farm
takes kindly to the care of poultry,
encourage his ambitions by getting
him some thoroughbred poultry, or,
If you cannot afford enough money to
start him with poultry, give him
enough money to buy setting of
thoroughbred eggs. Many a success
full man owes his start in life to the
ownership and management of some
thing he took notion to" in his
boyhood days.
Whitewash will do great work IL
killing off lice and other vermin. As
cold weather approaches lice are less
numerous, but enough hide in the
cracks and crevices of the houses dur
ing the winter to produce armies on
the approach of spring You can do
telling work by killing the remaining
few now. Put the whitewash on
thick, and AZ you add an ounce OF
carbolic acid TO each pail of wash
you will kill any germs of disease
that may be lurking In the building.

TREE THAT GIVES MILK.


In South America is a remarkable
tree growing in the valley of the
Amazon. It's sap is a milk singularly
like the finest cows milk. II is high
ly nutritious and will mix with water,
hot or cold, and never curdles in hot
mixtures, 1t Keeps good for week,
even In this climate, and has much
the taste of cows milk In which Gin
namon has been stepped. 1t is thicker
than ordinary milk, and has the feel
ing in the mouth of liquid juice. II
left standing for time thick, oily
cream arises.
When dry this has the consistency
OF wax. Mr., Paul Fountain, recent
traveller in South America, says he
has drunk large quantities of It, both
as It came from the tree and also
mixed with tea or cocoa, with which
II combines better than cows milk.
He declares that It is extremely nour-
ishlng When he could get this sap
he always preferred it to cows milk.
The sap is obtained either by wound
ing the bark or thetrunk or by break
ing the smaller branches. 1t runs
freely, so that several quarts may be
obtained. from single tree in the
course of few hours.-Chicago

How to Realize the presence Of Christ.
John IA: 1928.
We must love Christ before we can
realize His loving presence, and we
must obey Him before we can love
Him.
Worldlings realize only what they
see; spiritual man realizes also
through the spirit.
A Christian is one in whom Christ
really lives; he is as sure of Christ,
therefore, as Of his own life.
No one can read this passage with
a receptive mind and not perceive in
it the doctrine of the Trinity.
Suggestions.
Christ will sometimes force even
skeptic, even a Saul, to realize His
presence; but usually He manifests
Himself only to believers.
One of the best ways to come to
realize ChTist's presence is to act as
nearly as possible as we would act II
we did realize that presence.
There are places-the church. the
closet of prayer-where Christ is
most easily found. Find Him there,
and you will realize Him everywhere
else.
" is cur privilege to have a strong
er faith in Christ than the disciples
had, whose faith was so easily built
on what their eyes saw.
Illustrations.
Some whose hearts are not pure
are yet trying to see God, as If an
astronomer should attempt to use
telescope with a dirty lens.
Put yourself in Christs way and
your doubts will all be cleared up,
as the frosted window-pane is clear
ed up as soon as the sun shines
upon it.
If you wanted to get an introduc-
tion to a man, you would associate
with those who knew him.
The dearer a friend, the more
quickly you recognize him in the
dark. So with Christ.

FARM BULLETIN BOARD.
How to Make One and the Uses 70
Which II May Be Put.

Some of our most progressive and
practical farmers advertise regularly
in the leading agricultural papers, and
1t pays them SO we'll that not one of
them thinks Of farming without adver-
tising. But there is more or less ad-
vertising, Of certain kinds, that farm
ers cannot afford to place in an agri-
cultural paper, and which would not
pay in results because of its very ma
ture. This is what the farm bulletin
board is for.
The sketch illustrates the FIRST
board we made. II can be made very
easily and quickly and at little ex-
pense. II wide boards are used, get
good material and have 1t dressed on
both sides and jointed. II matched
stpff is used see that It Is compare
lively free from knots.
Cut the boards to run across the
bulletin board horizontally, as this
works better when writing on the
board with crayon. A good size for
such a bulletin board is about three
feet wide by Ave feet high. Use three
wide cleats on the back. Fasten these
with 1h-inch screws. This Is bet.
ter than to use nails, as It leaves q
smoother surface for writing.
To make a good job. bind the ends
or edges all around with narrow strips

protection. The writing surface can

UTILIZING STRAW.
How the Farmers Of West and North.
west Could Save Waste.

The waste of straw in the west and
northwest is simply appalling, de-
clares Prof. Thomas Shaw. Even in
localities where farmers will tell you
that the land Is low in vegetable mat
ter. they will go on burning straw
from year to year. Incredible ssNit
may seem, the glare from burning
straw stacks may be seen every fall
from some part of the area covered
by the corporations Of Minneapolis
and st. Paul.
In this area OF straw burning, the
straw Is of the best for feeding. It is
brighter and less injured by dews and
rain than In the east, north and
south. When cut at the proper stage
of ripening. its value is very consid-
erable for food. Live stock will eat
with considerable relish even wheat
straw thus harvested, when well
stacked. Stock will eat oat straw
more readily than overripe hay, and
this applies to horses. colts, yard cat
tie and sheep.
Much OF the straw is too ripe be-
fore 1t is cut. This is inevitable
where very large areas are grown.
but will be quite practicable where
the farming Is mixed. The greatest
loss, however, comes In the stacking.
1t Is rare to see stack. Where
threshing Is done one sees simply
straw heaps made by the use of a
blower.
With the aid of one extra man to
guide the blower and one ON the
stack. the stacks could be built so as
to turn rain. The stock, especially
cattle and horses, could go to these
stacks. usually made In the field, and
help themselves. and large part OF
the winters food could thus be Sc
cured. The manure made could then
be scattered over the farm. The west
ern man who burns straw, reasons
that It Is easier to burn It than to
draw the residue and scatter II over
the land.
