Address ON Young Peoples Societies.
At the meeting of the Rock River
association in session
at the Plymouth church in East Moline
yesterday Rev. Marion Humphreys,
pastor of the Central Presbyterian
church of this city, gave a very in
structive and interesting address of
The Future of Young Peoples Socie-
ties"
Mr.. Humphreys began with an analy,
sis of the needs in modern life which
had called young peoples societies into
being. He drew graphic picture of
the religious life of the families of
generation ago. whose children attend
ed church twice each Sunday with
their parents, and met at family wor-
ship every morning, contrasting this
with the present day, when the cares
of business and the demands of social
life fill the minds and weary the bodies
of parents. so that the work of reliS-
ious training is wholly made over to
| the church. He spoke of the educa-
tional value of all this, and of the
teaching of bible, catechism, and relig-
| iouS history that went with it, and de-
ciared that the effectiveness of the
Christian leadership of the present day
was largely owing TO the thoroughness
Of the religious instruction in the old
fashioned Christian home. He assert
ed that the most pressing need of the
church in the matter of young peoples
Of training in definite religious habit
and Christian thought
Pays Tribute to Christian EndcavOr.
He paid a high tribute to the work
of the Christian Endeavor society, and
prophesied such a modification of its
methods as should develop an organ
iZation adapted to the need of each
individual denomination = educational
in its activities, devotional in spirit
vital on the social side, and federated
with similar organizations in other
churches for the advancement of GER
tain common interests. The address
was searching in it's analysis. construc
tive in tone. and characterized by d
delightful frankness in dealing with
practical difficulties.

Yellow Rust Parasite on Wheat.
An instructive account is published
in the Experiment Record Of the De-
partment of Agriculture of the manner
in which the yellow rust parasite acts
upon susceptible and resistant varieties
of wheat. In an experiment with Mich
igan Bronze wheat, and "ruSt-prOOf"
Eingorn, young seedlings of each were
infected by placing spores Oh the leaves.
In the Michigan wheat the germ tubes
passed into the inner tissues and devel-
oped rapidly, producing pustules in
about ten days. In the case of the re-
sistant Eingorn wheat the germ tubes
made good their entry, but almost in
the beginning showed, through the mi
croscope, weakness and starvation, and
were unable to make further progress.
The wheat plant continued to flourish,
except for the small dead area where
the fungus entered the leaves. The rea-
son for this resistance is unknown, but
is supposed to be due to some toxic
principles in the host plant.

Brief Hints.

Egg stains on silverware can be re-
.noved by rubbing them with common
table salt
A dash of cinnamon in a cup of choc-
olate after it is poured adds a nice
flavor.
In baking bread or rolls put a sauce
pan of boiling water into the oven the
steam will keep the crust smooth and
tender.
little cream Of tartar improves
frosting, and flour busted over the top
of a cake will prevent frosting from
running.
Save all lemon rind, dry it in the
oven, crate and store in an alright
tin. A little of this added to an apple
pie gives a delicious flavor.
In washing dishcloths instead of using
soap or borax put a quantity of soda in
the water and boil the dishcloths. The
grease and soda make a soap that does
its own work.
Omelets are more tender if the eggs
are thinned with hot water instead Of
milk. Before folding the plain omelet,
spread it, for change, with green
pepper minced fine. The pepper does
not need previous cooking.
Knife cleaning may be made easier
by dipping a piece of raw potato in the
securing material, rubbing with that
instead of cloth. The juice of the po-
tato is not only good cleaner in itself,
but it keeps the securing paste moist
When baking cake, if you have for
gotten the favoring, put a few drops
on the layer, cover it with a pan and
place in the oven. 1t will penetrate the
cake and the flavor will be evenly dis
tributed through the same as if baked
in it.

American Agriculture.

Although agriculture in America is
pean and Asiatic countries, it has been
developed to such an extent that the.
older countries look to us for ideas and
methods to help them solve the farm
problems they have to meet. Our sci
entists and Investigators are among the
foremost in the world and as an agrl-
cultural nation we need stand aside for
none. To be sure, agriculture owes
many of it's greatest scientific discov-
cries to English, German and French
experimenters, but in aggressiveness
and practical development of. ideas
America is one of the leaders.
Other nations are sending their sci
entists to America to study how we do
things here. Our country presents most
of the agricultural problems to be met
with in the countries of the old world
and we are finding out how to solve
them, and the old world wants to know
how we do it. A japanese expert IS
now in the United States to investigate
our methods of improving worn-out
soils. He says: "We have in Formosa
over 100000 acres under cultivation
and we want to find out how the United
States goes about it to improve the con-
dition of it's land, so we can improve
our country" This is but one instance
of where we are sending our ideas
abroad.
We have every reason to be proud OF
our agricultural advancement, much OF
which is due to our State experiment

breeding Dairy Cows.

In breeding dairy cows man should
have a definite object in view. Too
many shift from beef to dairy when
dairy products are low, and then shift
back again from dairy to beef when
beef rises in value. By this method a
man is constantly shifting from one
breed to another, and as result he is
getting a herd that is good for neither
milk nor beef. A man must have an
ideal toward which he is breeding and
then bend all his energies to that end.
This shifting from one breed to another
is a suicidal policy that will ruin any
man and any herd.-Kansas Expert
ment Station.
