a Heartily relationships are meant
~ TO typify and help us to under
~ stand the relationship which we
NAV have with God. In TINS
Scripture the most sacred and

~ husband and wife, is used to snow US

sire He should be.
The true marriage Of two noble and
h..rt;fu, souls is the most blessed de-
urh, that earth can give, but there are
many souls who have gone through the
,utward form of union with Christ who
have never felt any more joy In the
,r,on than do so many men and women
who are tied to one another by the mar
rage vows, yet who have no true low
one for another, and who are constantly
seeking to be free from their vows IN inc
divorce courts. The only difference seems
to be that those who profess to be uhiteo
to Christ do not even take the trouoie
to be divorced from Him when they gro"
weary Of the bond, but drift away 10 'he

they had never taken upon themselves
solemn vows.
There are many who doubt the blessed
ness of this marriage with CHRIST out

Dry Farming Propaganda

In view of the indisputable test;
mony which has been addueed il =
cent years of the success of what !;
commonly known as sedry land farm,
ing, " it is surprising that 50 manz
intelligent people remain scoffers
The lack of faith is more in evidanee
in those sections where little careful
investigation would remove the disba-
lief of the doubling. In Montana there
are hundreds of old time residents who
have witnessed failures in crop GROW
ing on land where there was no artif1c-
lal irrigation, who believe these eff
forts constitute all there is to the
modern system of raising crops with
out irrigation.
Dry land farming as practiced to-
day by the successful people engaged
in the business is as different from
old methods of growing crops on I'M
irrigated lands as one could imagine.
In the old days the grower plowed the
ground as the irrigated land farmer
did. Today the scientific dry land far
mer plows twice as deep as does the
man whose land is under a ditch. and
he pulverizes the soil and by constant
working and cultivation conseryes the
moisture and raises crop equal and
oftentimes better than his neighbor.
who has an abundance of water.
The experiences which are printed
in farm papers, in magazines and in
newspapers on scientific dry land
farming, are SO convincing as to leave
no room for doubt Of the success Of the
method. Wherever the soil is good
and there is moisture that can be con-
served, whether it comes from the
winter SHOWS or the spring rains, the
dry land farmer is successful. Fergus
county is the best illustration of the
truth of this given in Montana. In
Utah, where great areas of what was
waste land five years ago are today
producing crops Of grains, there are
few doubters of the success Of the
system.
The holding of the Dry Land Farm
ing congress in Montana next October
with the publicity that will be given
previous to the congress of the meth
DDS and illustrations of success, will
convince many who have now little
faith in the system, and will also add
thousands Of pro ducing acres to the
state. Outside of the adv ertising the

feature will be worth more han the

WORRY UMPIRES.
Players and Fans to Blame for Poor
Decisions.

Has it ever occurred to the patron of a
base ball game who yells his throat hoarse
over an umpire's decision, which nine
times out of ten is right, but for the
sake Of argument may be granted to be
wrong that he is largely responsible for
the scarcity of good umpires? says Sy
Sanborn. Has it ever occurred to the
ball player who complains that he was
robbed of this or that, or to the manager
who blames the umpire for defeat, that
nine-tenths of the fault of the existence
of bad umpires is his? There is only one
cause for the small supply of good UNI
pires and of the necessity of retaining In
service those who are admittedly mac
curate. The number of men who have
the brains. nerve and judgment to make
good umpires and will devote such abil-
tiles to the profession of base ball UNI
piring is decidedly small. Few men of
the requisite ability will submit to the
abuse. insult and general rowdyism aimed
at the umpire during the average base
ball game. They will accept far less
money in other lines in which they can
retain their self-respect without wearing
armor plate to protect 1t. For the great
er part Of the abuse and insult hurled
at the umpire the average player or man
ager is responsible. The average spectator
would accept the average umpire's de-
csion as correct If the player did not
feel called upon to protest, either verbal
ly or visibly, when the decision does not
favor him or his team. oftentimes when
he knows perfectly we'll that the decision
was correctly made. This common prac
tice incites the spectator, generally
prejudiced anyway, to believe the umpire
never is right when he makes an adverse
decision. The major leagues have the
matter so well in hand that players
seldom can incite a crowd to violence
nowadays but in the minor leagues one
constantly reads of attacks or threatened
attacks on umpires. The result is that
the majority of umpires In the minor
leagues are men whose nerve and fight
ing spirit exceed their intelligence. A
'bruiser" who makes mistakes will last
longer than man of good tact and judg-
ment who Is thin skinned. Consequently
when a major league president seeks to
replace an incompetent umpire he knows
not where to find man who may not be
worse than the bad umpire he has. When
base ball crowds and base ball players
learn to treat umpires the way foot ball
crowds and foot ball players treat the
officials In charge Of foot ball contests.
it will be possible to obtain high-class
men to umpire base ball games, as in
telligent, careful and conscientious In the
discharge Of their duties as those who are
ready to offlciate at foot ball games. and
esteem 1t a high honor to. be chosen.
There are a few base ball umpires of that
class, but mighty few of them And for
that fact the average base ball patron
and the average base ball player have
only themselves to blame. Think 1t over.
