ern seed house. In the one tract
planted by Mr. Block, east of Antoni-
to. there are 90S acres, and besides
acres planted by other farmers in the
same neighborhood. About ~ diff
ferent varieties were planted. some
of the seed costing as high as 81
per hundred. Some early peas are now
in blossom. The vines are up five
or six inches and looking we'll. Two
patent cultivators are at work in the
fields stirring up the ground between
the rows. An expert from the seed
house will soon make trip through
the valley for the purpose of making
an estimate on the probable yield.
He now estimates the crop at about
so 900 bushels of threshed peas. 1t
is said that should his report after
his inspection trip, show probable
yield of anything approaching the pres
ent estimate, his company will at
once build a large granary or storage
warehouse either at La Jara or An
tonito to handle the crop. Two i'm
proved pea hullers or threshers have
been ordered by the company. These
will operate all over the valley from
Center to Antonito wherever the com

George Minty told of the hearty
welcome given the delegates by the
people OF Rochester and the very co..
dial manner in which they were
treated. He discussed the convention
in general and laid special emphasis
upon Its motto, The Evangelizatiol
of the World in This Generation"
Herbert A. Hardy told of the in
spiration to be received from the del
egates themselves. In the convention
over 5000 delegates all were Chris
tians; they were there for an earnest
purpose. In the many schools and
colleges from which they came they
were the strongest students and to
meet and mingle with them was the
greatest sort of inspiration.
John E. Washburn gave a most in
teresting talk on the personnel of the
leaders of the convention. John r.
Mott one of the greatest platform
chairmen in the world and who has
travelled in 81 foreign countries, was
one of the principal leaders and
speakers throughout the conference.

copal church in foreign countries, in

were in attendance, lending their in
%spiration to the work. Robert E..

greatest scholars and the greatest
orator of the Presbyterian church,
gave n very strong speech. DR..
Homer G. Stuntz, who has appeared
in Mitchell before and will be here
again In March at the Laymen's Mis-

men leaders ct the country were
there and spoke on the subject of mis-
sions. Miss Paxton, Mrs. Eddy of
India, and Mrs. John r. Mott were
among the principal speakers.
The meeting of the Methodists in
attendance at the convention was re-
ported by Lawrence Todnem. At this
meeting many of the great mission
airy leaders of the church spoke. 1t
was shown that there was a demand
for 200 men in the field at tile rres-
ent time. OF this number 81 avail
able men we're present. A number of
these were undergraduates and not
able to get into the field Immediately.
The last report given was by Miss
Mamie knight on the last meeting of
the convention. held on Sunday
night. The first part of this meeting
was devoted to a memorial service
to the Student Volunteers, 81 in
number, who have died in the SER
vice since the last convention at
Nashville, Tenn, four years ago.. Fol-
lowing this the 95 volunteers WHO
have received appointments and will
soon depart for the foreign field were
given places on the platform and
each spoke briefly of their d@estina-
ton and the reasons for giving them
selves to the work. The effect of
this closing meeting was tremendous
and far-reaching in its effect upon the
hundreds of college students present
at the convention.

One of the most important ralig-
ious meetings at the University In a
number of years, was held Sunday
afternoon at a joint meeting Of the
Young Mems and Young Women's
Christian Associations, when the dele
gates to the recent Student Volunteer
Convention at Rochester, N. Y, gave
their report of the work and different
aspects of that great conference.
The first speaker was Prof. Clar-
ion D. Hardy. on the subject, "The
Scope of the Volunteer Movement"
The professor showed how the Move
ment worked in foreign lands and
how 1t obtained its leaders anon the
young people Of this country. The
sacrifices involved in a financial and
social way, the spiritual heroisr
shown, were given their due place in
the discussion. One noteworthy
phase brought out was the quality
of young men and women chosen to
carry the mission work to a success
full conclusion. They are those best
