CORN GROWING IN MAINE.
Additional Evidences That 1t Is On
The Increase.

Additional Evidences That II Is On
The Increase.
Corn is coming into its own in Maine.
The interest is and has been for several
years rapidly on the increase. Many diff
ferent forces are contributing to its pro-
motion. During the past three years the
Maine dairymen's association has been
exerting itself to encourage the growing
OF corn through the offering OF premiums,
giving special attention to promoting an
interest among the boys OF the State. The
plan adopted has proven successful and
will undoubtedly be developed still fur
Their in the future.
During the same period the college OF
agriculture has been carrying on co-opera-
tive work with the boys Of the State in
the growing and testing of different
strains and varieties Of corn. Each year
the number OF co-operators has increased,
and the present year the extension de-
partment OF the college has $50 working
for the betterment Of the corn plant.
Sample lots Of .seed corn have been sent
out with the understanding that when
harvested, ten ears OF corn Tor exhibition
purposes are to be sent the college. Such
lots as possess merit viii be exhibited at
the Maine dairy conference, the annual
meeting of the Maine seed improvement
association, Maine corn and fruit show,
Maine State grange and annual farmers
week. All corn will be exhibited at the
above places in the name OF the grower.
Requests for corn have come from every
county in Maine and from boys Of all ages
which illustrates fairly well not only the
increased interest in corn growing, but
also rapidly growing interest in agricul-
ture among the boys OF Maine. It is very
evident the boys are not planning SO much
on leaving the farm as they were asfew
years ago. Nor does the evidence stop
here, for nearly thirty Of these boys are to
cooperate along with the college in test
ing several varieties Of oats the present
season.

Honorary members meeting) Edited BY
Rev. Sherman H. Doyle, D. D.
Peter is often called the apostle OF
hope. Hope occupies the central place
In his writings, which faith does In
those Of Paul and love In those OF
John But, while hope was a living
power In the heart o; the apostle, the
grace of love also had large place
both In his heart and life In his well
known interview with the risen Lord
he had been called upon three times to
answer the question. Lowest thou
mey' and In each instance be had as
serted that there existed In his heart
the warmest affection fer his Master
and Lord. Thou knowest that love
Thee" was hiA> thrice repeated answer.
and even In the Greek word used for
love he expressed the depth and
warmth Of his love. Moreover. Peter
recognized and commended the love
which the Christians of Asia Minor, to
whom he wrote, had for Jesus Christ
Though they had not seen His gracious
face and had not known Him after the
flesh. yet they loved Him-"whom.
having not seen. We lover And why
did they love Christ? For the same
reasons that we and all who love
Christ do so.
/. We love Christ because we know
Him. 1t is true that 1t is love to one
whom we have not seen with the phys
ical sight, and yet we know him
through the study of His life while
upon earth and by the inner knowledge
of spiritual communion with Him And
ito know Him is to love Him." No
one can rightly study the life of Christ
and understand His mission into this
world of sin and woe and look upon
the sufferings which He endured that
this mission might be fulfilled without
having his heart go out to the Saviour
In great and overwhelming love. And
when to this knowledge through his
tory there is added that which comes
through experience by spiritual fellow
ship and communion with Him that
love Il UNNECESSARILY increased. Then
we, too, can say:
Yet. though have not seen and still
Must rest In faith alone.
love Thee, dearest Lord. and win,
Unseen. but not unknown.
2 We love Christ because He first
loved Us. I'VE love Him because He
first loved u.s." This is the testimony
Of John, the beloved disciple and the
apostle Of love. And 1t finds a re-
Spouse In each and every loving Chris
tian heart. 1t was Christ's love for us
that led Him to die for US upon the
cross. and therefore no one need ever
doubt the love Of Christ Love thus
manifested Is above the realm of
doubt Love begets love" Christ's
love to US begets love in us, love for
Him and love for those who are His
We all know from experience that 1t
was the love of Christ for us that
kindled within our breasts the fame
Of love for Christ, and nothing so re-
wives a dropping love for Christ as to
sit beneath the cross and to look upon
His sufferings and to remember that
He bore the cross and shame for Us
because He loved us.
