Working In Harmony.

The Walton meetings have been a
success. Five churches have labored
together SO harmoniously that no
one could tell to what church an
other belonged unless he knew al
ready. The evangelists are members
of different churches, but no one OF
them has any sectarian bearing. One
purpose predominated their labor
saving of men. 1t would be difficult
to find set of men more earnest
and versatile than they. Results are
manifest. Many people have been
converted A large number have
been led to identify themselves with
local churches who have moved from
their membership. The churches have
been encouraged by the quickening
of their own members and by the
adding OF new ones Notwithstand-
ing the evangelists came without any
stipulation as to their reward. the
people made liberal free will Of
fering to them. This also is strik-

Equal Showing for All.

The Walton meeting, so far as
DR.. Walton and his co-laborers are
concerned, is now something of the
past. Ny impression of the union
meeting Is as follows:
First, it was the greatest help to
me individually in meeting and get
ting acquainted with the people of
Waxahachie. Being new man on
the ground and comparatively a
stranger to many Of the people it
gave me ar opportunity of meeting
people which would otherwise have
require d considerable time.
Second YVES impressed with the
faithness of the meeting. All had
an equal show. The strongest and
best organized church, naturally
would reap the greatest harvest.
Third-The organization was the
best / ever have known. The good
part about it, we are able to retain
1t in our local congregations.
Fourth-The greatest of all is the
spiritual influences set In motion.
This hope, trust and pray may con-
.tinue. J. B. BOEN, Pastor of the
Christian church.

Effective Organization.

MY first impression of Dr. Walton
and his plans was that he had more
organization than could be success
fully put into operation in the length
of time he had to operate. but in
this my judgment was at fault, his
untiring efforts in coaxing the timid
and persuading the backward to try,
has resulted in most wonderful de-
yelopment of scores of my members
who had never done any kind Of
church work before. The organiza-
ton and training in work my church
has received has been worth all 1t
has cost us in time and money; but,
these efforts have not been crowned
with splendid results in the CONVEX
SIGN of the unsaved and the reclaim
ing of the backslidden. We have re-
ceived into the church to date as the
result of the meeting about 701with
quite a number to receive yet. DR..

A Successful Meeting.

Our meeting has just closed, and
We stand today looking back over
the month of labor in the cause of
our Master. 1t has been month of
great sacrifice on the party of many
of prayers and tears for the unsaved :,
and above all month of great joy
for those who have been led to
Christ. Truly the words of the
Psalmist have been fulfilled when he
said, They that go forth weeping
bearing precious seed shall without
doubt come rejoicing bringing in
their sheaves." And then the JOY of
working! ! used to stand in the
great harvest fields in Kentucky, and
look across on the wide fields of RI
pening grain. In the sky was the
song OF the lark, and in the fields the
song of the laborers, binding the
golden sheaves, and piling them in
great rows to be placed in shocks. So
we have been laboring in the harvest
fields of the Lord, and it has been
JOY to work for our Master. Let us
continue the work, and though we
may not see the fruit of our labor
here in all its fulness we shall
some day when we strike hands
with our dear Lord over in the
morning land. VIM. NJ. NEVINS.

Growth of the Church.


That which most impressed me IN
connection with the Walton meet
ings is the growth in many ways Of
our church membership within one
month, and now as the evangelist
leaves us 1t is with one clear duty
lying before us that each individual
is called to do a work for God, for
1.-The church and for the uplifting of
our city such as we have never felt
before.
The purpose Of the entire organi-
zation. the appeals and entreaties OF
the speaker. have been to enlist in
the cause to which we were called
when we gave our hearts to Jesus
Christ. We have been made to see
that we can no longer drift with the
crowd and be called consistent chris
tians. We are to accomplish positive
to responsibility.
Nothing In the work OF Brother
Walton has been made more prom
inent than that under Moses law
that man is a good man who does no
harm, under Christ's law he Is
bad man who does no good. The
great sin of omission, which is the
crying sin of the church, is now i'm
pressing us and bearing hard upon
US.
The Spirit of God who presides
over the heart of the saved man OF
woman Is ready to direct us to the

advantages will sink you deeper into
hell if you turn your back upon
them all and reject the offer of sal

success is the fact that they have

CROPS GROW WITHOUT RAIN.
How the Syrian Peasant Makes US
of the Moist Subsoil.

From the Chicago Tribune.
In Syria and Palestine from the begin
ming OF April until October there is prac-
tically no rain, yet in July the fields TEEN
with a vigorous growth of watermelons,
tomatoes. cucumbers. ETC.. all fiourishing
without artificial watering. although at
that time no rain has fallen for many
weeks.
In fact the Syrian peasant from the
moment his seed has been sown prays
that no rain may fall. During the period
of growth of crop the surface of the
soil to a depth of six or eight inches is
perfectly dry and loose. Below this sur
face layer will be found moist soil in
which the roots extend and grow Wig
orously. In this moist subsoil plants
continue to grow until late autumn
When the crop is removed in the autumn
the rains commence and the land Is
ploughed after each heavy rain as soon
as tho soil begins To dry
Two primary objects are kept I'm view
in plowing-to furnish Il favorable sur
face for taking up all the water and to
prevent it's upward evaporation from the
subsoil The great point is to keep the
upper six inches of soil perfectly loose
and friable. that the moisture from
below is not drawn upward and lost in
evaporation but does not ascend higher
than the compact subsoil that is not
broken up by the plough. For this rea-
son the ploughing is shallow. averaging
from four to six inches in depth.
When the time for sowing the seed ar
rives the land is ploughed to depth of
about six inches and the seed is sown
from an arrangement attached to the
plough, falls on the damp subsoiI and is
covered by the soil closing over behind
the ploughshare. From this time the
upper stratum of loose soil prevents the
escape or moisture upward beyond the
wet subsoil on which the seeds rest and
into which their roots after the process
OF termination spread.
