Corn and Alfalfa.

Do you want to know the very
best about corn culture? Prof.
p. G. Holden one of the foremost
authorities on corn culture has
written a little book giving in
detail all about corn. This book
is worth many dollars to every
farmer, but it can be bought fol-
25c per copy. Step into my

Sales at Coney island.
Even the dignified seriousness OF
DR.. Dwight ia not proof against tho
attack of mirth that seizes him as he
relates the introduction Of what q
barker described to the merrymakers
at Coney island last summer as "ths
washtub" edition OF the Bible.
The Bible at Coney island is brought
into competition with fascinating and
novel forms OF amusement and enter.
tainment and the hoarse voice OF its
own energetic colporteur 10 one OF
many crying special wares. such a.
the Loop the Loop" the Ride Into
the Whale" and the Voyage 70
Heaven and He'll" and even those
members of the society who deprecate
the apparent loss Of dignity involved
In this rivalry are obliged TO admit
that while II is eminently necessary to
maintain the serious character OF the
Holy Book. at the same time II ia
equally necessary TO yield a point in
doing so and to take into account the
prevailing moods OF the thousands
who stroll by the stand-moods OF
recreation and enjoyment.
The colporteur at Coney island has
q ready tongue and wit He has q
more difficult proposition to handle
than his competitors. and he handles
II deftly. To one he says reprovingly.
in answer to a Jest: This book will
keep you from sin. Sin will keep you
from this book. On the cards he dis.
tributes and among the printed post
ers decorating his well stocked stall
the passerby may read:
Satan trembles when he sees
Scriptures sold as cheap as these.
With his megephone In hand John
Henry Way. a lifetime devotee OF this
special branch of work. calls out to
the moving multitude. Don't forget
the Bible" and some are singled out
for special comments adapted to their
special needs. The small boy whose
greedy mouth is open to receive n
large chunk of ice cream sandwich is,
for instance. arrested by the state
ment. "You can have a book that will
last you for years for the price OF q
sandwich that Is lost In a second" !"
Probably the sandwich Is lost and the
book is not gained. but tho boy has
been made 70 think.

sent to parts of China over the great
Yangtse-k kiang river. The figures OF
the latter half of the year 1909 are not
yet compiled. but the record shows
that during the first six months there
were sold In China alone about 40s.-
900 Bibles. a total never reached be-
fore.
In the salesroom of the society are
cases filled with duplicate copies OF
original books and manuscripts. The
fact that the building Is not flreproof
Is the reason why the interesting col
lection owned by the society is at
present housed at the Lenox library.
This collection contains editions OF
the Bible in more than 150 languages
and dialects. OF English versions and
revisions there are approximately
5000 volumes exclusive OF the manu-.
