This reached the eye of Bishop Can
dler, whose comment is so appropriate
that cannot do better than quote il
here.--
This editor is right i'm calling us
back to more earnest forms Of life than
all these things involved. He wants
religion in the home; he calls for lives
OF prayer; he insists that we need the
most earnest type OF religion to save
the country from moral wreck. And
he is right. But can we get that sort
of religion under the spur Of the mo-
tive TO which he appeals? Hardly.
I'VE cannot get revival Of religion
by seeking n revival OF religion. No.
where in Gods Word are men admon-
ished to seek religion or to seek re
vivsl OF religion. They are always
urged to seek God. All the rcyivals
of religion which have blessed the
world in the history Of the past have
come when men have undertaken to
'Nfh NpNs sNbiif btNf v tNtl Ablbt ulll-
ervise. We cannot defy even n revival
Of religion. God must he the supreme
object of our love and desire.
Men Called Preachers Have Explained
Away tho Word OF God"
Herein Is our trouble--we have lost
God. Men called preachers have ex-
planned away the Word Of God, max.
ing 1t no longer a sure word of proph
ecy, but an antique for the critics to
analyze and discuss. The moral law
has been lowered. The ten command
ments have been rcckoned as a piece
OF Mosaic plagiarism applicable to the
moral needs of ancient nomads in the
wilderness, but have no more than a
qualified bearing on the life of today.
The Sermon on the Mount has been
treated as An irldescent dream
"The Lordship Of Jesus Christ has
been denied, while trcacherous com
pliments have been poured out upon
his name, as that of great teacher
and noble martyr. His teachings

SHERMAN VISITS
SANTA ROSA FOREST

District Forester f. A. sherman.
with headquarters at Ogden, arrived in
town last evening from Austin. where
he had visited the Toiyabe forest.
Supervisor Blakeslee, of the Santa
Rosa reserve, returned from Paradise
last evening, and this morning the two
officials were in consultation at the
local headquarters. When asked by
the Silver State representative if his
visit at this time was in connection
with the elimination of National
from the reserve, Mr.. Sherman replied
in the negative, adding that Supervisor
Blakeslee had the matter well in hand
and that satisfactory settlement of
the question would soon be made.

The heavy snowfall of last winter and
the generous rainfalls of the spring
and summer have placed the ranges in
very fine shape, and we look forward
to an unusually prosperous year. Ordi-

have to contend with, but this year

Will CULTIVATE
CUT-OYER Lands
Especial to the Silver state.)

SPOKANE, Wash, June 24.-More
than 100000 acres of cutov timber
lands in eastern Washington and Ore
gon, north and central Idaho and west
ern Montana will be cleared and set
tied by small farmers and homebulld-
ers during the next few years, with
the carrying out of the plan practical
ly agreed upon by prominent lumber
manufacturers and commercial clubs
of the Inland Empire.
Every precaution will be taken to
keep the lands from falling into the
hands of speculators, the purpose be-
ing to sell it at the lowest price to ac-
tual settlers, who will develop their
holdings and thus add to the wealth
production of the nation.
Il. +. Cartier Van Dissel, president
of the Phoenix Lumber company of
Spokane, who first brought the plan
of developing the vast acreage of
logged off lands in this territory to
the attention of the Spokane chamber
of commerce, has been successful in in
tersting many boards of trade and
similar organizations in the movement.
Joined with these forces are the trans
continental railroads and timber con
Germs throughout the northwest.
Development agents in the employ of
the railroads also have thoroughly in
vestigated the possibilities of the
lands in the districts, and their reports
bear out the statements that soil,
climate and market conditions are
nearly ideal for fruit, grain, hay,
dairying and hog and poultry growing
"While there are localities where
20 acres of land will provide for a
family Mr.. Van Dissel said, in dis
cussing the proposal to utilize the
lands to the best interests of the
various communities, probably the
bulk of it win be cut up into 40. so
and l60-acre farms. 1t has been dem
onstrated that the 'char- -pitting' sys-
tenn is the most practical to clear the
land of stumps''

LOW Is THE TIME
TO SWAT THE FLY

If You see a fly walking over the
food and dishes. or alighting on your
baby's face, remember that he is a
messenger of disease and death, says
the July Woman S Home Companion.
The rules for dealing with the fly
nuicanee, published by the Merchants
association of New York, and widely
circulated by them, are worth reprint
ing. We repeat our suggestion that an
excellent work for any live woman s
club would be to reproduce these rules
or cards and distribute them broad
east
Keep the flies away from the sick,
especially those i'll with contagious
disease. Kill every flv that strays into
the sckroom. His body is covered
with disease germs.
Do not allow decaying material of
any sort to accumulate on or near your
premises. All refuse which tends in
any way to fermentation, such as
bedding straw, paper waste and vege-
table matter should be disposed of or
covered with lime or kerosene.
Screen all food. Keep all receptacles
for garbage carefully covered and the
cans cleaned or sprinkled with oil or
lime.
Keep all stable manure in vault or
pit, sreened or sprinkled with lime, oil
or other cheap preparation. See that
your sewage system is in good orde
that it does not leak, is up to-date an
not exposed to flies. Pour keroser
INTO the drains.
Cover food after meal; burn
bury all table refuse. Screen all food
for sale.
Screen all windows and doors, es-
pecially the kitchen and dining-room
Burn pyrethum powder in the house
kill flies.
Don't forget, if you see flies, that
their breeding-place is in nearby
dlth IL may be behind the door, un-
Ter the table, or in the cuspidor.
IF there is no dirt and filth, there
win be no flies.
If there is a nuisance in the neigh
borhood, it would be advisable to
write at once to the health department.
