COST OF GRAIN

CENTRAL CANADA

A careful canvass made of a num-
Der OF men farming in a large way
indicates that even with the extreme
expense of harvesting the crop, which
has been caused by the bad weather
and difficulty in threshing, wheat has
been produced and put on the market
for less than SO cents a bushel. The
average freight rate is not over 10
cents per bushel This would make
the cost of production and freight IS
cents and would leave the farmer an
actual margin on his Iow-grade wheat
OF 173z cents and for his high-grade
wheat OF 1919 cents; and though this
is not as large profit as the farmer
has every right to expect, it is a profit
not to be despised, and which should
leave very fair amount Of money to
his credit when all the expenses of
the year have been paid, unless the
value of low-grade wheat sinks very
much below its present level. A mat
ter OF Importance to the prospective
settler is that of the cost of produc-
ton. The following table has been
prepared after careful investigation:

most explicit In its declaration that
Jesus, as the antitypical High Priest,
offers but one sacrifice Of Himself for
the sins Of the world. In our context
st. Paul points to the typical sacrifices,
(which could, never take away sin,
and then he tells us that the one sacri-
fee on the Antitypical Atonement Day,
by the antitypical High Priest, is so
complete as to leave nothing further to
be done-"Christ dieth no more; death
hat tn no more dominion over Him."
Sacrifice Of the Mass.
However. we behold two great Chris
tan communions holding different
view-the High Church of England and
the Church of Rome. Both hold the
doctrine introduced into the Church
about the fourth century-the doctrine
Of the Mass. This doctrine holds that
the death Of Christ cancels original sin
for believers; but it philosophers that
since sins committed after coming into
the family Of God need cancellation
Also and that since nothing except the
blood Of Christ. the death Of Christ,
can take away sin, and the merit Of
His death at Calvary having been
used to cancel our past sins. fresh
sacrifice of Christ is necessary for the
more recent sins.
Applying this philosophy. these Chris
tian brethren perform common. or
Low Mass, for general sins in a con-
gregational way, and High Mass for
special sins. The congregation assem-
bied, praise and prayer are chanted. and
then the officiating priest approaches
what they call the altar Of sacrifice.
On it are the bread and wine, which.
being blessed. are Instantly turned
into the actual flesh and actual blood
Of Christ"
Where Lies the Mistaken
With our convenient Bibles Catholic
and Protestant we have much advan-
tage over our brethren of the fourth
century who invented the doctrine of
the Mass. We now see that this doc
trine is unscriptural and that the bish-
ops erred-in other words, they were
not inspired; they were not successors
Of the Twelve. Whatsoever things they
bound on earth were not bound in
heaven
Bible students see clearly that the
one sacrifice of Christ is sufficient for
the sins of the whole world-past.
present and to come. But God does
not propose in any manner to forgive
sins wilfully committed. They receive
stripes, or punishments. in proportion
to their wilfulness.
Our need then is, not to attend
Low Mass or High Mass, but to go d.
rectly to the Lord in the name and
merit Of our Advocate. Thus the
Apostle enjoins us saying. IF any
man Tin the church, sin, we have an
Advocate with the Father, Jesus
Christ the Righteous" q John ii, II
The thought that sin in every instance
requires atonement is quite Scriptural
and the thought that without the
shedding of blood there is no remission
OF sins" is Scriptural. Hebrews TX,
22) But the thought that Christ needs
to die more than once is antagonistic
to the Scriptures, as we have seen.
