The first place visited by the party

Parker, ST., was visited next His
corn was young. but looked fine and
will probably yield abundantly, if it
has a good season. The other crops
were good. AT Mr.. j. Frank Will

Mr.. Williams only short time, and
showed that it had been much i'm.

ed rain badly. His potatoes and peas
were also good From Mr.. Parrott's

where they stopped for dinner. In
the afternoon the first place visited
was that of Mr.. NJ. II. Beck. Mr.. Beck
had already harvested one crop of
about $500 pounds of forage off his
ETiZe acre and was preparing To plant
more peas. thus raising two crops on
his acre
| Mr.. $. j. White was next visited. He
had about the best all around four
acres seen, his peas and potatoes be-
ing especially fine, where the Others
were very good. He was picking the
peas from his prize acre. prerara-

were not visited as they were some
distance from the house.

prize, as all of the contestants have

the light she'd upon it by other Scrip,
lures. Indeed. there might be more
than one application of it.
But our preference of thought is
that the Great Teacher referred. not
to Himself. but to those whom He in
structed. By virtue of His own cove
