intrigue and misfortune seemed to pese1

out of these experiences. He says that,
scarce able to crawl; he went 70 ms l tI

hymn is found in almost all hymn BOOKS,
and from the churches the homes, from
the forts and the men-of-war or both
great English-speaking nations its melody
floats out on the Sabbath evening air.
Abide with me: fast falls the even
tide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me
abide!
When other helpers fail, and comforts
flee,
Help of the helpless, o, abide with
me!
Not a brief glance I beg, passing
word,
But as thou dwellst with thy disc1-
pies, Lord,
Familiar. condescending, patient free
Come. not to sojourn, but abide with
me.
I need thy presence every passing
hour:
What but thy grace can foil the tempt
er's power?
Who like myself my guide and stay
can be?
Thro cloud and sunshine, o, abide
with me!
Swift to it's close GIBBS out life's little
Earth's joys grow dim, it's glories pass
away:
Change and decay in all around I see;
O thou. who changest not, abide with
me!
Come not in terrors, as the King of
Rut kind and good, with healing in thy
wings,
Tears for all woes, heart for every
plea
Come, Friend of sinners, and abide
with me!

Where is Deaths sting? where Grave,

Hold thou thy cross before my closing

In life, in death, o Lord, abide with
me!

The fall of the year is the time to
buy pure bred stock, whether of males
only Or of both sexes Breeders do
not keep over winter more than
enough to complete their breeding
pens, and will readily dispose of their
surplus stock at fair price. 1t is bet
ter to buy fowls in the fall than to
procure eggs of pure breeds in the
spring. A pair of hens will lay per-
haps $50 eggs-at least 100 of them
being early in the season-thus pro-
ducing a large number of chicks and
avoiding the shipment of eggs by ex-
press and the likelihood of breakage.
1t will be still cheaper, if buying pure
breeds, to procure half dozen, male
and five pullets, as they will cost less
proportionately and give an opportun-
ity for Matching chicks quite early in
the spring without being compelled to
wait too long to secure a setting of
eggs. 1t will pay every one interested
in poultry to use pure breeds, and the
fall is the best time to buy them

yet will trust Him" God saw 1t and
rewarded him. Out of his struggles
and testing time he rose in glorious
triumph.
Never was there a time in the
worlds history when the demand for
as now. 1t requires more courage to
be true to self, to God and to our fell
low men to-day than ever before. Our
fathers died to maintain our coun-
try's honor, but it is our duty to live
for it, and this requires no less of true
heroism.
Indeed, that battle to defend ones
self and ones country from the in
sidious though monster evils of social
and political life to-day requires more
courage, more devotion to the cause of
truth and justice, more real sacrifice
than that required to face the fire of
cannon and musketry on the battle
field
The man of heroic life keeps faith
in the ultimate triumph of right prin-
ciples. Such man keeps his hands
clean, his heart pure and his moral
and spiritual vision undimmed. With
faith in God and the triumph of His
truth, he stands by right principles,
follows clean methods and when the
world calls him foolish he goes
straight ahead and sooner or later
makes for himself a place of honor
and trust
The man of true heroism does not
forget that loyalty to ones convictions
is an essential element in all success.
The man who smothers his conscience
must sooner or later go down in de-
feat
Daniel was first and last religious
man with heart as loyal and true as
STEEL Success as the world counts it
was nothing with him when pitted
against success as God counts it. The
times call for men of such heroism.
Only by such can our social and moral
life be rescued from present decay and
disintegration.

Preserving Beef.

When the animal heat is all out and
the meat thoroughly cooled, cut it into
convenient sized pieces for cooking,
weigh out the meat and allow eight
pounds of salt to 100 pounds of meat.
Sprinkle a light layer OF salt in the
bottom of a clean, sweet, hardwood
barrel or stone jar, then pack beef in
closely to a depth of, say five to seven
inches, then put on a layer of salt and
so on until the beef is all in, reserving
enough salt for a good layer on top
of the meat After the package has
stood over night add for each 100
pounds of meat four pounds of sugar,
two ounces baking soda and two ounces
saltpeter, dissolved in a gallon of tepid
water: three gallons more water should
cover this quantity. Weight to keep
all under the brine.

Dairv Farm Implements.

Every dairyman should endeavor to
have as many labor saving appliances
around and in his barn as possible
For instance, the removal of manure
from dairy barn entails great deal
of hard work. However, the work
may be greatly lessened II the farm
ers will install manure carrier,
which runs on track. These carriers
cost little in comparison to the amount
of labor they save.
Every dairy farmer should have
manure spreader. One spreader may
do the work of several men in the
snreading of manure on the fields. The
manure is spread more evenly and
each ton returns more value for this
reason. No dairy farmer can afford
to be without manure spreader. But
he should buy standard make.-ln-

A LESSON ON HFRoIsM.
By Rev. Edgar T. Van T

By Rev. Edgar T. Van Horn.
But Daniel purposed in his heart
that he would not def1le himself with
the portion of the kings meat. nor
with the wine which he drank.-Dan-

Daniel stands prominent among the
heroes of Bible history. The charm
ing story of his life has been an in
SEPARATION and help to many man in
the crisis of his life.
In him was that heroic element
much needed to-day. He was at a
crisis. AS a prisoner in far away
land two courses lay before him. One
promised to make him lead captive's
life, while the other, on the condition
that he smother his conscience and
"go with the crowd" offered him free
dom and the splendors of the kings
court
The glamour of this prospect must
have thoroughly tested him, but the
heroic element asserted itself, and he
met the test with the decision to re-
main true to himself, to God and his
high ideal.
Another test came tenfold in its in
tensity and he chose horrible death
in the lions den rather than renounce
his allegiance to Jehovah and the
principles for which he had stood In

Possibilities of Our Farm Lands.

possibiIItfes of Our Farm Lands.
From the standpoint of the most re-
fable and recent Investigations and
Information, our land, handled IN &C
roriance with certain natural laws
that determine its proper cultivation,
will not only furnish food and cloth
Ing for an immensely greater popula-
ton for ages. but will supply fuel and
light and power when coal and petro-
leum shall have been exhausted. But
We must look to better methods Of soil
usage for the alternative of bringing
under cultivation unused and aban-
dOned swampy conditions, although
adding a vast total to our cultivable
fields, will not always suffice to meet
the growing demand Already many
sections of congested population are
calling upon outside sources for food,
and many of the large cities at times
actually suffer from vegetable famines.
Such shortages are due to more or
less local and abnormal conditions, but
might become general and permanent
unless wise foresight should make pro-
vision for feeding our rapidly increas-
ing population.
The producing possibility of our cul-
hTa5le lands becomes almost incon-
ceyable to the mind when we consid-
er that only small proportion of the
land nominally in farms is actually
under cultivation, and that our acreage
Yields are ridiculously low in compar-
lS0n with those of highly developed
agricultural countries like Germany,
france and England, Notwithstanding
mat our soils are naturally as produc-
