Fruit inspector C. E. Flint was
in this neighborhood last week. He
destroyed a shipment of Winter
Banana apple trees that Mr.. Davis
ordered from Seattle firm. The
trees were badly infected with

the inspector of the arrival OF the
trees, which is one of the require

Sam Rockwell has put in whole
lot Of hard work this winter at dig
ging and hauling rocks off OF a
patch of new ground which he is
preparing for cultivation S. j.
Rockwell, his father, has been work-
ing the fifteen acre farm about five
years and the little place presents
an impressive object lesson OF what
intensive cultivation will do. Last
summer he harvested &c tons of clo-
yer and timothy hay on a little less
than five acres, at one cutting. By
way of showing the. difference be-
tween ordinary and intensive farm
ing one may look just over the fence
where only ordinary cultivation has
been done. Here one finds the
less than one ton per acre was cut.
1t is readily seen that when this lit
tie farm is all brought up to Mr..
Rockwell's standard, he can easily
feed twenty cows. Anybody who
has fairly good land can get just as
good crops as Mr.. Rockwell does if
he does as good work.

The Death Rate in the Canal lone

So many records have been bros-
en- in the canal zone since Uncle
Sam undertook to dig the big ditch
that we have become used to the
sensation and no longer expect any:
thing but remarkable doings.
Whether moving dirt, building
dams, draining swamps or prevent
ing disease, the canal commission
seems to have no thought in view
out to make each days work better
than that Of the day before. So
we arise merely to put on record
that the report Of the Department
Of Sanitation for November, just
received, shows that during that
month, among 1900 white men,
women and children from the Uni
ted States living in the zone, there
were two deaths from disease, one
from malaria and one from cancer;
there was also one premature birth.
Including the latter. this is equal
70 an annual death-rate Of 8. O2 per
thousand. Would any Of our most
advanced cities care to compete for
first honors, Is 4 health resort, with

lest Must of our cities, says

session was the powerful sermon of
Right Rev. Olmstead, ID. D., bishop of
| Denver, who secured his text from
Numbers 2I:1, the story of Balaam S
disobedienCe of the Lords commands.
He used the story of Balaam as a
fOrCeful illustration of the modern
trend Of the people who try to make
themselves think that Bible pages
well thumbed and hymns occasionally
sung Indicate obedience to God S
commands when the prick of con-
science really tells them they are
straying, roaming away from the real
truth and strength but are unwilling
TO return because Of a few pleasures
of which they might have to sacri-
flee.
Swinging in great circle follow
ing his brilliant expose of modern
conditions he brought in the remedy
which must be secured TO reach the
evil lie said the Christian workers
are facing a great wilderness of souls
today that need the blessing touch
of righteousness. lie said there must
be greater intellectual preparation
among the preachers of the gospel,
more energy in the work, more ap-
plcations, more earnestness and I'M
lliuching courage He decried the
occasional tendencies OF church mem
bcrs branching off on any form of
scientific Christianity, which might
prove only the Balaam dodge oil
