rHE corr. eRoWlNe CONTEST.


The Bulletin would like to see the
young men of the two eastern eoun-
ties Of the state enter and make q
success Of The Bulletins Corn-Grow-
ing Contest.
The entries so far have come in
slowly. They must all be in the next
six weeks i'm order to assure the IN
dertaking. The contest means good
money for the successful parties, as
well as valuable experience.
1t is important to test the seed corn.
The Des Moines Capital has this to
say on the subject:
The care test of seed corn that was
made last spring, insuring seed of
strong terminating qualities, had
much to do with the great corn crop
Iowa harvested last fall in spite Of the
unfavorable season.
ION an average of one thousand
kernels, five hundred grains so far
tested this year have failed to germi-
nate. 1t is the general report Of sim
liar results in tests all over the state
that has caused the Des Moines Com
mercial club to sound the warning,
and to devise a plan for supplying To-
calities with seed testers that will be
available for farmers in each COM
munity.
IF Iowa farmers heed the warning
in time they will be saved great loss
of time and money in replanting and
give themselves far greater assurance
Of a satisfactory crop in the end by
getting good seed in the ground at the
proper time"
This is a matter Of as much import
ance in Connecticut as it is in Iowa.

An acquaintance of mine who crossed
the Atlantic some years since related
how one densely foggy day fishing
schooner doomed out of the mist di-
rectly in the liners path. Although
both nelmsmen acted promptly it was
the narrowest possible escape from a
collision. The crew of the fisherman
sprdng into the rigging, their faces
livid, their lips moving as if they ut
tered prayers. Several made upon
their breasts the sign of the cross. All
their piety came to expression in that
one moment of possible destruction.
AS the liner rushed by. however, nav
ing missed them by barely d couple
Of dory lengths, the frightened men
Jumped down from the rigging, ceased
their praying and began robustly
cursing.. The noise of their bIasphemy
could be heard above the rush Of the
waters or the roar Of machinery as
the two vessels were lost to each other
in the fog.
Some of the most flippant people in
the world can become mighty serious
when hey are scared. If all the good
resolves thar men make while in diff
ficulty or danger were carried out later
this earth would surely become an
Eden. If doctors always got the pay
they are promised when in behalf of
some stricken member of the family
circle they fight 1t out with death in
the sick chamber more of them might
rest from labor in their old age, II
ministers always received the loyal
support they are led to expect in re-
turn for their help in hours Of trouble
or affection, fewer preachers would be
discouraged and fewer churches short
handed

calm succeeds storm and the threat

gain. What is our duty, anyway?
Well Carlisle said: 'Men do less than
they ought unless they do all that they
can" If that is not definite it GER
tainly is rather suggestive. Some
wise man perceived that the way TO
learn cur duty is by doing 1t. This is
where one good thing is sure to follow
another if the philosophers are right.
Do the truth you know and you Will
find the truth you need to know, we
are told; and this is a chart for the
way; and there appears to be no pos
sible chance for a mistake.
Every fat man or woman pretends
they would give any price to be lean;
but they would. They only think they
would. What is the price of getting
lean? Less food and more exercise.
If it could be done with money, it
would be easier. The people who gre
told they must cut down their fare
one-half and walk five miles a day
decide the price is too dear, and as
a result may not live out half their
days a straight fast of a week or
two is heroic treatment; but it does
the work, reducing the faster at the
rate of from to 2 IL pounds day,
or u or Il pounds a week. But peo-
pie who love to eat think they would
prefer to die rather than fast a week;
while those who have tasted a week
would father DO It than have the neu-
ralgia fer an hour. This is the diff
ference in the view Of feats-in human
preferences. Anybody who will pay
natures price may become lean.

ened danger is averted we relapse into
the old indifference. Men have come
to me in apparently genuine pertur-
baton of spirit, anxious for what
could do for them, who have been suf-
ficiently unconcerned either about me
or religion itself after life had resumed
its even tenor.
Now piety Of this spasmodic kind is
not piety at all. 1t is only moral
cowardice. Religion is not a sort of
safety appliance to be used only when
the pumps win no longer keep the
vessel afloat or when the air brakes
refuse to work. God is not a court of
last resort to be consulted only after
We have taken our case to every other
tribunal. Religion is daily compan-
ionship with our finite Maker and
Friend whose friendship we should
claim in our ordinary work and play

Procrastination may be a thief of
time. but when it comes to tempta
tons and worriments he plays a most
important part Delays in the direc-
ton of anything that is injurious is
real help to resistance. If it is never
too late to mend. it must be a semi
virtue to be too late to fall. If we
should determine to put off our wor-
ries until tomorrow and should finally
die on our elaboration we should be
gamers thereby. John Wesley used to
say Il dare no more to fret than to
curse and swear" and Helen Hunt
pointed out that the only thing which
could disturb the peace and comfort
of a home more than fretfulness was
drunkenness; and while fTetfulness is
called foible it deserved to be classed
as a vice I am inclined to agree with
Helen, for it is silly and vicious en-
ployment of time and the way to estab-
fish permanent discoFd

We talk about the pitfalls of life but
what are they? According to the die
tionary pitfall is a trap. So far as
our boys and girls are concerned traps
may not be wilfulIy set for them, but
they may be wofully effective. Good
families do fearful work through de-
PRAYED tastes and an evil example.
The ''tutfruity" on a clergyman's table
has been known to give a boy his
first experience in intoxication; and
the wined sauces and branded mince
pies in respectable families create a
taste for liquor, as do the deftly aico
holized creams and candies and CO.
Gained and caffeined soft drinks. The
enemy is not lurking in open saloons
and brothels alone-he is most dan
gerous where he is lurking among pre-
tentious and respectable people. The
lure, the pitfalls, for youth of both
sexes is often where least expected.
1t is not strange that mothers are
puzzled to bring up their children so
that they may be sure-footed and level
headed in the walks of life. Nothing
but honoring the principles of probity
and honor can save them. 1t is a
world where temptation is met at every
turn.

men knew their towns better, things
would be different What most men
know about town is its name, the
party which governs. the places he pat
ronizes. and the church he attends.
They do not venture slyly to inspect
its political machinery, to be acquaint-
ed with the number and character of
Its religious and civic societies, its pool
rooms, poker joints, saloons and broth
els, to have q knowledge Of its classes
ana the habits Of its citizens. 1t is not
a very deep interest that we take in the
concerns which vitality affect us at our
very doors. The man who knows his
town knows why many things happen
which the less active citizen cannot I'M
derstand; he knows all his neighbors
better; has different estimate of him
self, and really has his eyes open to his
duty. whether he ever performs it or
not The record Of the town is as lit
tie regarded by the average man as
the Bible, and the reason the few rule
the many is because of the Incidence
and ignorance Of most of its citizens.

The MAN WHO TALKS

1t is good thing to be happy
though grown up. There is no more
reason in leaving all the innocent
pleasures to the children than there is
in the church leaving all the most en- :
liyening music to the devil 1t is al
ways well to have a good time in an
ticipation, if it is to De genuine good
time. Tho good time of a grown up
has come to mean something prone TO
produce evil results, and that is not a
good time in any sense Of the word.
Going TO church is good time to those
who like to go, not TO those who do
not Ii is the same with picnics and
entertainments of every nature. What
is one mans mea- is another man 5

tronomics Any time is good time
which has no baneful influences. There
is Il good time in a thousand good
works, as well as in a thousand games.
1t Is the perversien of some good
things which make Them evil. 1t is the
corrupt person who corrUpts every
thing with which he becomes con-
nected.

1t is not overwork that knocks SO
many people out but intemperance.
Industry with the hands or brain
doesn't upset men of wholesome habits
and regular hours. 1t is the other kind
of people who have nervous prostra-
ton and are incapacitated for work.
They pay no attention to fatigue and
generally violate the laws of their be-
ing. Man is celebrated for showing
little consideration for himself, and
it is this kind of men who abuse others
under them whether they be human or
animals. Humanity is hurrying and
worrying too much. and resting and
praying too little. Many a young man
who is thought by his good mother to
have overstudied and wrecked himself,
sat up too late nights, smoked too
many stogies and drank too much
strong coffee, if nothing stronger He
has violated about every law Of nature
and has simply reaped the conse-
quences. He is usually aware Of this,
but ne doesn't confess for he prefers
to have his downfall attributed to hard
work rather than bad habits.
