Extension of encouragement to child

planting not less than an acre of corn
and following the instructions of the

bered that the calf has small stom-
ach, and there is great danger of over
feeding 1t. The following method may
be used to determine the amount Of
milk to feed
For the first hundred pounds live
weight feed ten pounds of milk per day
For the second hundred pounds add
five pounds of milk per day.
For the third hundred pounds add
two and One-half pounds of milk per
day.

oped it may be changed to skimmilk ut
the end of the second week. This
change should be made gradually by
substituting small amount of skim
milk for like amount of whole milk
in the daily ration. About week or ten
days should be taken for this change.
Care should always be taken to have
the milk warm and sweet. Especially
Is this necessary when feeding the
young calf. AS the calf grows older it
will do just as well on cooler milk If 1t
is fed at the same temperature every
day. The right temperature for the
milk fed the young calf is blood heat
100 degrees F. The milk should be US
nearly this temperature as 1t Is possible

In a paper on Taking q Calf From
Its Mother" by Professor o. E. Reed
Of the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege, this authority says:
The exact time Of taking the calf
from its mother will depend upon the
condition Of the calf and its mother at
the time Of calving. II the calf Is
strong and in good condition 1t may be
taken away Immediately without al
lowing 1t to nurse. 1t will be an easier
task to teach the calf to drink from

weak at birth or If the cows udder is
intlamed or caked 1t probably is bet
ter practice to allow it to remain with
Its mother for several days. In case
the calf is Immediately taken away
from its mother 1t should by all means
receive the mothers first milk. The
milk at this time contains a high per
cent of protein and ash, which act
as laxative and tonic and are very
effective in cleaning out the digestive
tract and stimulating the digestive or
gans. In some cases 1t is not safe to
feed the milk from cows to their calves
after the first few days.

Golden Text.-Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself Ctom. xiii. 81.
Luke vi, 27-35.-The riddance of en-
nifty.
In Matthews report of the Sermon
on the Mount the contrast is clearly
shown between the teaching of Jesus
and what was taught by the scribes
and Pharisees. They were keen on
prohibitions and in setting limitations
to activity. Jesus was always positive
in tone. He insisted ON the principle
of the thing, leaving his hearers to
make personal applications, according
to circumstances. Love is
stronger than hatred; blessing is more
bountiful than cursing; prayer is more
powerful than insult. Nothing but the
grace Of God can enable us to return
good for evil, but If it Is done greater
results will be produced in the inter-
ests of Justice and equity. "Smiteth
thee on the one cheek" This was Il
