McALL MISSION WORK.
An Address To-day by Mrs. Dimock of
 Elizabeth, N. J.

Travel abroad interests one in many lines of thought and stimulates ones interest in all sorts of matters. But these matters are more apt to be secu- lar than religious. Still, as one travels through France he is struck by signs of evangelical work done in country districts, in city slums, and along can als or rivers by the organization then termed "Misslon Populaire," here call ed "The McAll Society," from It's noble founder who, more than thirty years ago, left his prosperous church in Eng land to carry to French Workmen the
 message God loves you, love you"
 The work grows steadily; hard work
 ing peasants gladly sing the popular songs to the familiar tunes; listen att tentively to the story of Christ whose life and death was for them; and their
 weary lives are frightened by these evangelistlc services.
 In factory towns like Lilli, in the per- furhe making districts, among Parisian rag -pickers, on the quays of Bonlogne- sur-Met and Marseilles, McAll workers tell to attentive audiences Bible truths familiar to us from childhood but al- most unknown there
 New Haven friends of the mission have the chance to-day to listen to Mrs.
 Dimock of Elizabeth, N. J. She has spent much time in France is perfect ly familiar with McAll work, is a rnem-
 Der of the Philadelphia Board of Dir
 ectors and is a very charming speaker. She will address the fall meeting of the N. H. auxiliary in the United church chapel at p. III, All friends of the work are invited to be present and , to meet her at the informal tea which will follow.

it is quite as bad as he represents, yet
allowing that it is a somewhat exag-
gerated statement, we all know that
matters are in bad shape Probably
the remedy which he suggests is a
good one so far as it goes. But it will
not help out our Florida truck and
fruit growers, because there is no pros
pect Of any waterway for us to North
ern markets, beyond that which we
have, the ocean. A water way will be
made across the state some time from
the Atlantic to the Gulf, but that will
not lessen the charges on our ship
ments Still we consider the article Of
sufficient interest to give it space, and
because reading has suggested to us
real remedy for Our trouble.
Personally we have always been
staunch protectionist, and are still Of
the same belief in theory, but practical
ly we have reached the conclusion that
we are too much protected.
The only hope of help for the truck
ers and fruit growers along the South
ern coast lies in repeal Of the present
navigation laws which will not allow
any except American vessels to take
any part in the coastwise traffic of this
country. If the carrying trade from
Our Southern sea ports was open to
the competition of all vessels of the
world, we should at once see a great
reduction of rates of freight You
will find the article elsewhere this
week.

survey work for number of years,
spending one year on the Kansas
Geological Survey For the past
three years he has worked under the
directions of the U. S. Geological
Survey in Florida, spending his vaca-
ton and such other time as he could
be excused from college duties with
out interfering with his class room
work. Quite recently he has written
bulletin No. 80 of the Florida Agri-.
cultural Experiment Station, on the
Occurrence and Use of Artesian and
Other Underground Water"
During the last three years DR..
Sellards had held the chair as Geo1o-
gist and Zoologist at the Florida State
University. A year ago he prepared
paper which was read before the Flo
rida State Horticultural Society, and
which was very favorab1y received.
1t is very fortunate for the State of
Florida to be able to secure one so
thoroughly competent, and one SO
thoroughly familiar with the geologic
al conditions Of the State, at the be-
ginning of the term of office. This
line of work is one in which an i'm
mense amount of field work will have
to be done to make the publication
valuable. In his work, DR.. Sel1ards
will need time, and the generous
cooperation of every one interested
i'll this line Of investigation The loss
to the University is something that is
to be regretted The gain to the State,
however, is something over which we
should all feel pleased DR.. Se1lards
has promised to deliver number of
lectures before the farmers institutes
during the coming year.

The Torrens System.

For considerably more than year,
we have been urging the adoption of
the Torrens system of registering land
titles. In all that time we have seen
it mentioned onl y once in one Of our
state exchanges, up to about the time
that the legislature adjourned. Since
that time an article which we copied
from the Progressive Farmer has been
reprinted in several OF them.
We are glad that they have done
even this, but regret that they did not
take up the subject before it was too
late fOr the legislature Of this year to
have taken some action on it. It
would have hardly been possible for
any amount Of urging on the part of
the papers to have got such a law
through this section Of the legislature,
but ii all or even majority Of the
editors had advocated it's passage, it
would no doubt have been so discussed
that the people would have become
better acquainted with its provisions
and aware that it meant dollars in their
pockets whenever they wished to
transfer the title or to borrow money.
However, we shall keep up the fight,
and hope to enlist the interest and
help Of the editors of our state ex-
changes. We see no reason why they
should not interest themselves in the
passage of this law. 1t will be Of
value to every land holder in the State.
The only ones who would be injured
by it, are county clerks, who get large
fees for abstracts of title, the owners
of sets Of abstract books, and the
lawyers who get a large percentage
Of their business from litigation over
land titles.
The Florida agriculturist., 1907-06-26
Parcels Post.

We have not said anything on this
subject for some months. Yet we
have not lost Our interest in the mat
ter nor given up the fight. In fact we
have no idea of giving up until the
desired end is won. 1t is sure to
come, the American people are very
slow to become aroused, but when
once they become convinced that their
rights are being infringed upon, they
are as resistless as the lightning or
the tornado.
How many would have believed,
few years ago, that the railroads
would ever be compelled to submit to
such searching and rigid control as is
enjoined by the laws now in force.
You may say that the law has not
done the shippers much good Pos
sibly not, but the end is not yet
The law is on the statute book and
will not be repealed, on the contrary
it is sure to be strengthened in all
it's weak spots at the next session Of
congress. More than that, there is a
good prospect that still more radical
legislation will be enacted Do not
misunderstood Our position, we believe
i'll square deal'' for the railroads as
we'll as shippers. But so long as the
officials do all in their power to
thwart and embarrass the Interstate
Commerce Commission, so long they
may expect the people to insist on
the passing of more and more strin-
gent regulations 1t would have been

Irrigation.

It is now an established fact that the
progressive farmer and fruit grower
Of our fair State will as soon as pos
sible irrigate part or all of his land.
The excellent showing of the farmer
who has an irrigation plant against
the one who has not, is convincing
enough to the most skeptical
1t is to be hoped that any of our
fruit growers, truckers or farmers who
contemplate installing a plant will
study the subject thoroughly, and if
possible call and see other plants in
successful operation SO that when they
pay out their money they will be get
ting what they pay for-an irrigating
plant that will do the work required
and expected by the buyer.
There are many things to be con-
sidered; your engine may be too
small and not able to do the work,
and it may be too large and have
waste Of fuel and power; your pump
may be too small, or larger than you
need Then comes the question of
properly piping same, and also size
Of pipes to give the best results, then
you have the different quality of the
soil and in the many positions the land
lays.
Then you have the lift and distance
YOU have to force YOUR water and the
many different points to be considered.
By all means irrigate, but when
you do, see that you have it dore
right and by reliable firm, so that
when you come to make your final
payment you have got something that
will do the work and be a pleasure to
operate and make you money, and
not be something which will be
candidate for the scrap heap in years
time.

much wiser to have joined in with the
Commission and done all in their
power to forward it's efforts to enforce
the law
This disgression is to illustrate the
status Of the movement to establish a
parcels post Certain interests are
banded together to prevent the pas
sage Of parcels post law. They may
be able to delay it a few years more,
as they have in the past, but in the
end it will come, for the will of the
people is supreme in this county. And
when they make up their minds that
the express companies and other inter-
ests are working against the rights of
the majority and to their detriment,
they will rise and sweep the whole
gang out of the way. 1t would be
much wiser to acquiesce and submit as
gracefully as they can to the will Of
the majority for it will have to be
done in the end.
Congressman who oppose a parcels
post law, claim that it would be such
an expense to the government that it
cannot be afforded. Did you ever hear
of any opposition to bill for anything
else on the ground of expense? They
pass laws appropriating millions Of
dollars for various purposes, many of
them OF very doubtful untility or ad-
vantage to the people yet when asked
to give the parcels post system a
trial by appropriating few thou-
sands, they make the claim that it is
expensive. What an absurd plea.
Why not try it, as they did the rural
free delivery, with a few thousand dol
lars, which would give them a chance
to stop it if it did not work salts
factorily. The express lobbyists, who
control the situation, are too smart
to permit any such experiment, they
know too we'll that the result would
be disastrous to the express COM
panes.
Is it not strange that, making the
claim that we are the most enlightened
and most enterprising people of the
world, we should still sumbit to the
extortions Of the express companies?
We are the only nation which
claims to be enlightened, that
does not have a parcels post A few
argue that on account Of our long
lines and extended territory, it is not
possible for us to carry out parcels
post law. Well, the express companies
have managed to establish a tariff
which covers the country, why cannot
the post office do the same, and at
very largely reduced rates?
Suppose, for the sake of argument,
that it would cost few thousand dol
lars a year to get it into running
order, before it was self supporting,
did you ever hear any one complain
Of the expense of postofice depart
ment? Bitter complaint has been
made Of some of the abuses which
have sprung up in carrying on the
work, such as excessive rates for rent
of postal cars, too high rates of COM
penSation for carrying the mails, but
none against any legitimate expense.
Congress will meet again next De-
cember. If you wish to be Knight OF
