Then you should nourish the crop at frequent
intervals during the growing period with the
same plant food. Work well, being careful to
feed the crop with only Virginia Carolina Fertl-

CHURCHES AWAKENING
and USING The PRESS
Advertising Colums Added to Me-
diums by Mr.. Jenkins Of I'm
manuel Presbyterian.

Widespread attention has been at
tracted to the policy of one of Mil
waukee's churches in endeavoring TO
reach as large a number of people as
possible with a knowledge of its SER
vices, their nature and aims, and the
desire of the church to affect the
spiritual life of the community.
This is Emmanuel Presbyterian
church, of which DIR. Paul B. Jenkins
Is pastor. Beginning with its street
car cards, the church has met with
results so definite as to lead it TO
extend its methods to include men and
to the use of the regular advertis-
ing columns of the press. Blotters
bearing the name of the church and
mention of its services are regular
by placed on writing desks in hotels.
DIR. Jenkins says: There Is moth
ing sensational about it. We are sim
ply trying TO do the business of the
kingdom of God in a business like
way; that's all. We believe absolute
ly in conversion as the indispensable
entrance upon the Christian life, but
We believe that a man must come to
church If he is to be reached by the
message of the church. And We be-
lieve that any man win come If he is
once convinced that the church has
a message for him that he would be
interested to go and hear. And We
are trying to convince him."

are cussed and discussed by the trav-
cling public, who often wonder what
the matter Is. When they can find
nothing else in the world to criticise
Il Is a pleasure to have the railroad
company to pass Judgment on. Many
old railroad stories have gone the
! rounds of the hardships of railroading
in the early days and one of interest
Is that which is told by Denison man
of the line which Is operated between
Marshall Texas, and Shreveport, La,
during the civil war.
The management of the road made
money. They did not have rail-
road commission after them every
days in the year. After selling the
line to the Texas an Pacific the man
agsment of the line went into the liv-
cry business in Marshall.
The management and owner of this
piece of road was one man and it is
said that his name was John Hig-
ginson. He held the many respon-
sible positions of the line. Some OF
his titles Were Chairman of the
Board, President, Vice President, sup
erintendent, trainmaster roadmaster,
fnsight and passenger agentJfireman,
conductor and master mechanic.
The road was known as the Mem
phis. Ell Paso and Pacific and was
forty miles long. On leaving Marshal
there was a long grade and the bal
arce of the line was also ful oil
grades. During the war the SOL
diers took all the rolling stock Off
the road except three box cars Thest
cars represented the rolling stock oil
the system until it passed into othel
hands. The motive power was of tn.
best in those days and consisted ot
several yolks of oxen, commonly
known a hasy-burners. The oxeI
were responsible for the trains be
ing ON time and they wene general,
to the minute, it is said. Mr.. Higgin
son was known to be the first Pooba
in railroad history.
The train was operated on the tri
weekly plan. When the cargo wa
gathered up and everything ready TO
the trip, the oxen were loaded int
the first box car on the train. Tn
next car was loaded with freight ana
passengers and the third was occupie
by the management" The cars wer
started down the steep grade out o
: Marshall and after rolling as far a
they would the brakes We're set, tn
b oxen unloaded and hitched to tn
: coupling OF the car. The brakes wer
released and the train started up tn
grade until the top was reached
when the oxen Were again loaded In
to their car and another start wa
made downhill. This PERFORMING
was repeated until Shreveport wa
: reached On level the oxen pulle
the train, but down grades Were al
ways taken advantage OF.
8 This is said to be the second hay
burning railroad In the history o
e the United States. The first wa
when the Baltimore and Ohio use
horses to haul the freight and pas
senger trains over the 10 miles o
tract first constructed. The Balti
