} HYMNS YOU OUGHT TO KNOW
Your Own Work.

If you cannot on the ocean
Sail among the swiftest fleet,
Rocking on the highest pillows,
Laughing at the storms you meet.
You can stand among the sailors,
Anchored yet within the bay,
You can lend hand to help them,
As they launch their boat away.
If you are too weak to journey
Up the mountain steep and high,
You can stand within the valley,
While the multitude go by;
You can chant in happy measure,
As they slowly pass along;
Though they may forget the singer,
They will not forget the song.
If you have not gold end silver
Ever ready to command;
If you cannot toward the needy
Reach an ever open hand,
You can visit the afflicted,
Ger the erring you can weep;
You can be true disciple
Sitting at the Savior's feet.
If you cannot in the harvest
Garner up the richest sheaf,
Many grain both ripe and golden
Will the careless reapers leave;
Go and CLEAN among the briers,
Growing rank against the wall,
For it may be that the shadow
Hides the heaviest wheat Of all.

shown here. A transverse clearer bar
is arranged below the tines of the fork,
guides on each end of the bar partly
enclrcling the end prongs permitting
the bar to slide freely on the prongs.
Pivoted on the handle of the fork is ii
bar which connects with other bars ex-
tending to the cleaning bar and to a
sleeve which slides ON the handle. By
moving the sleeve on the handle the
cleaning bar slides over the prongs of
the fork, removing anything adhering
to them.

Agricultural Extension.

One method employed by the State
agricultural colleges Of reaching the
farm boys and girls of the country is
through departments of agricultural eX-
tension Such departments have been
established at most of the older col
leges and they are doing vast amount
of good. The extension department OF
Ohio is one worthy of the attention OF
the agricultural world, for through its
monthly bulletins thousands of chill
dren and teachers in the State have
been interested in farm education who
would otherwise have never heard of
the college and what it is doing.

CuItiVatfOn of POtRtneS-

Cultivation should commence Just as
soon as the young plants begin to ap-
pear above the ground. The field may
be gone over with light harrow, or,
better still, with a weeder This is q
cheap method of cultivation, since a
wide space is covered. It is also effec-
tive in breaking any crust that may
have formed, in destroying small weeds
and leveling ridges left in planting.
AS soon as the rows can be seen the
cultivator should be used. If the
ground has become packed the first
cultivation may be deep and close to
the plants Subsequent cultivation
should be frequent. The conservation
of moisture by frequent tillage cannot
be too strongly enforced. The old no
ton that tillage must cease as soon as
the. blossom appears is wrong. 1t
should be continued as late in the sea
son as the vines will permit AS the
tops begin to spread out and cover the
space between the rows they partially
shade the soil and thus lessen the loss
of moisture by evaporation.
The cultivator should be set as mar
row as the space between and keep ii
covered with a loose mulch. Expert
ence and experiments favor nearly lev
ell cultivation. Excessive killing in
tensifies the injurious effects of dry
weather. The best cultivator is one
having number of small teeth, so that
it will leave the soil fine and compare

Looks Like Bryan and Gray

The Democratic National Con-
yentiOn will meet in Denver, Col
orado. next Tuesday, July Z. and
there Is practically no doubt that
William Jennings Bryan will be
nominated for President on the
first ballot.
Indications now point strongly
to the nomination of Judge George
Gray, of Delaware, as the candi-
date for Vice-President.
Judge Gray is well known and
bears high reputation as a solid
and conservative Democrat. and
his nomination would be very
acceptable to many of the Eastern
Democrats who would not feel
satisfied if a Western or Southern
man was named as Mr.. Bryan's
running mate.
a ticket of Bryan and Gray
would be a good one.
