BAPTIST CHURCHES.

Baptist 1aymen plan the most ambi-
tious series of dinners intended to help
missions that have yet been attempted,
and with an attention to details that
approaches madern trust methods in
thoroughness. These dinners have just
been held by Baptist laymen of Cincin-
natl, Dayton, and Columbus. but from
now until the middle of March the series
covers Central New York cities, including
Binghanton; Connecticut cities including
ing South Norwalk, New Haven, and
New London, and five cities in West Vir-
ginia- and early in April a series in
Minnesota to be followed in May By other
series in Illinois, including Chicago. An
advance man works up each meeting, a
principal speaker comes along at the
right time, often putting in a luncheon
in one city and a night conference in
another, and third man comes after to
follow up clews and clinch the work.
Such system has never beenA it is said,
put into mission methods before. Din
ners are not followed by after speeches
of fun, but with talks on finance, and
they are attended by two to five hundred
men each, with an interest and intelli-
gence on the part of mature men that
have not heretofore been known.
Fifty foremost Baptist leaders have
Just held a two-day conference over

when one has closed its books, the
entire machinery is to turn its aid to
another-an order of things almost un-
known heretofore in Protestant bodies
in America, or in England, for that
matter, 1t is said. For the old method of
appeals is being substituted among Bap-
fists the new one of development of the
lay workers in each church. The change
from outside to inside propaganda is de-
clared by Baptist leaders already to have
worked wonders. Leaders throughout the

CHANGE IN CLOTH
ECONOMICAL MOVE
Army Blanket Contract Is
Taken From United
Wooden Co.

Washington, D. c.. June s.-The
economical streak which is just now
influencing the departmental heads at
Washington has caused a change from
worsted to- wooden cloth IN the olive
drab material from which uniforms are
made The government thereby saves
something over $3.50, 900 a year, ac-
cording to the report. in addition to
striking 4 telling blow at one OF the
leading trusts It develops that there
are z26 worsted mills in the United
States. all controlled by one company,
while there are over 500 wooden mills,
many Of them Independents.
It IS estimated that the change in
addition TO the monetary saving. will
result in a spirited competition. the
bids for the contract being five times
as numerous as when only worsteds
were used The army blanket contract,
which for years has been let to the
United Wooden company. known as the
wooden trust, was this year let TO an

CLAYTON IS ACTIVE TOWN
In Center of Large Area of Rich Country the Town Has
Grown Very Fast in the Last Few Years-Alfalfa
Grows Well Whereabouts and Clayton Alfalfa
Seed Is Among the Best

The United States land office for a
very large district is located at Clay
ton and there are millions of acres of
good land yet open to entry that can
be had by paying the fees.
Progressive Town.
The visitor to Clayton is. assured
Eklund and Hotel Bruins, being up
todate in all respects for town the
size OF Clayton.
Greedy Parham, the cement contrac-
tor. shows several miles of cement side
walk that Clayton is very proud of. and
the new buildings in course of construc-
tion speak for the faith the citizens
have in the future Of the city.
The two Oldest merchants in Clay
ton are r. w. Isaacs, the pioneer
hardware man, and NJ. Herzstein &
Bro, general merchants. Mr.. Isaacs
carries a stock Of about $4,000 and
sold last year two cars of plows, three
cars of windmills, two cars Of pipe
and casing and six cars of barbed wire,
etc.
The Eklqnd hotel, Ranch and Irriga-
ton company is one Of the big con-
Germs and its name implies the variety
of it's enterprises. Cattle and sheep,
irrigated and dry farming, are all be-
ing done on thousands of acres
Alfalfa Seed.
The land tributary to Clayton is es-
pecially adapted for the production of
alfalfa, and its alfalfa seed is enjoy
ing an enviable reputation all over the
alfalfa raising section. Last year
over 10000 pounds of alfalfa seed
were shipped out Of Clayton Frank
Anderson, from 10 acres, sold S10S9
worth of seed: J. n. Potter raised 3d.
600 pounds of seed; Alex Mckenzie had
10000 pounds; Riley Hughes. $4,000
pounds, for which he received $4,000:
D. c. Johnson, $1,000 pounds. The
seed is equal, in fact resembles strong
ly the noted Turkish seed, but looks
even brighter.
The land is a subirrigated soil, so
necessary for the production Of the
best grades of alfalfa seed. Water can
be procured at an average depth of 20
feet anywhere in the great region.
BrOOmcOrn Crop is Good.
Broomcorn is always a good crop
here. Last year Herzstein & Bro.
bought and shipped about 35 cars and
there were others who shipped direct.
This year there is a much greater acre
age both in alfalfa and broomcorn.
and wheat is getting a great deal of
attention also.
The business men are ready to give
the prospective settler any attention
and the Citizen, the weekly newspaper,
others want TO learn about this coun-
want. a good, lively, newsy newspaper.
