oerpetVal Motion.

One may we'll be sure that there Is
no perpetual motion machine" For
this purpose machines have been con-
structed from time immemorial. but
nothing has ever come of IT, Men
have gone mad on the subject. but
without any practical results. 1t was
demonstrated long ago by Sir Isaac
Newton and DE In Hire that perpetual
motion Is IMPOSSIBLE OF attainment.
Even the solar system, the most won
der:ul machine of which we have any
knowledge. will run down in the
course of time. some say In about L.
100000 of years from now.

What He Noticed.

The extent to Which the modern
child is educated in matters OF hy-
giene appears from a recent episode
In a Boston school:
The class had visited the art mu.
scum and the teacher wished to learn
what the children had observed and
how they were impressed The sub.
ject at the moment was the exquisite
head of Aphrodite, one OF the chief
treasures of the museum, A little boy
who frantically waved his hand was
called upon. He announced triumph

for stock We can mix lespedeza.

vetches with Bermuda and they will
grow well together. We can also mix
orchard grass, tall oat grass and the
red top with Bermuda. But putting

winter clovers, or a vetch on 1t 10 fur
nish some winter and early spring
grazing. we can supply continuous
grazing for our stock and at the same
enrich our land.
Sow lespedeza seed on Bermuda sod
In February or early March; SOW the
winter clovers or vetch seed In Sep
tember and October. When the seer
are sown on heavy sod. 1t is usually
necessary to disk 1t In order to insure
termination of the seed at an early
date.
Bermuda may be propogated both
from seed and root cuttings. The
seed method is not recommended ex-
cept where 1t is very difficult to secure
pieces of sod. Plow the land deep and
disk and harrow until 1t Is fine. Lay
off rows about two feet apart and four
inches deep with shovel plows. Drop
small pieces of the sod every two feet
In the burrows and cover with har
row. A drag or light roller will put
the finishing touches on the job. The
sodding of the land may be done at
any time during the year.
When we have made our hill land
fertile by deep plowing. the addition
of commercial fertilizers and the grow.
ing of leguminous crops. and have
thoroughly sodded them in Bermuda

we can cut out some of our unprofit.
able labors. substituting good hogs.
brood mares. cattle and furnish the
the hands, laborsaving Implements
and strong teams to till the more level
acres on the farm.
The pasture lands should not only
be fertile. thoroughly prepared and
preporly fertilized before sodding 1t In
grass, but the briars, brush and
weeds must be kept down and the
grasses fertilized and cultivated every
two or three years. Where lespedeza
or some winter clover, or both, grow
on Bermuda sod It will not be neces
sary to apply nitrogen except to the
poorer spots.
It will usually pay to apply light
dressing OF phosphate once every two
years where the soil responds to acid
phosphates. On some sandy soils II
will pay to apply potash every two
years. The use OF disk harrow on
the Bermuda sod every two years
will cause 1t to take on new life.
We must not permit stock to Craze

During The past four years
the Sabbath Schools of the Sew.
enth Day Adven:ists Denomina-
ton in North America gave
S632. as for the fartherance of
the gospel in foreign lands, ac-
cording to report rendered by
Sec. George 3. Thompson, be-
fore the delegates at the worlds
conference of Seventh Day Ad-
ventists in session at Washing
ton ID. e..
An extract of this report has
been received by Mrs. G. G. Stay
ter, secretary of the Sabbath
School of the local Adventist
church, and the members were
much interested in the progress
mentioned in it.
Daring the quadrenial Of 1905
1909 the Sabbath Schools gave
$272, l4l to missions; the increase
over the amount during the quad
RENAL period ending in 1912 be
ing 1895, $50.
The motto adopted at the pres
ent session Of the general con
ference for the coming four
years is a million dollars for
missions. The report further
shows that in 1908 the denOmi
nation had 3,747 Sab 5athSchools
1860 of which were in foreign
fields, and 2,478 in America Du-
ring the four years of the gen
eral conference period, the schols
had grown to 4, 467, of which L.
$40 were in foreign lands and
2,0l4 in home fields, making an
increase of ga foreign and 1856
home Sabbath Schools since last
general conference. Four years
ago there was a membership in
these Schools Of SO, S43, of which
22,Ol1 were in foreign fields.
During the quadrenial period an
increase in membership of 25,
10, of which 23, has been in
foreign lands and 1, 49S in home
fields, the membership in foreign
fields having doubled in the past
four years
During the four years 8, 242 of
the Sabbath School scholars was
converted and most of them bap-
tised.
Since 1867, when the first de
post was made by the schools,
they have donated 81, 313, $50 for
missions. The record of offer
ings to missions in 1911 from the
Sabbath Schools was especially
encouraging, as during the year
$22S, O29 was given, which was
an increase of 81 $40 over 1912.
-Four years ago the 5. S of the
denomination were giving almost
u, 900 per week to missions; now
giving about s., 900 a week.
The members of the local S, S
are especially interested in the
recommendations made TO the
general conference which are as
follows.
That attention be given as new
er before to make the S. S. q
great power in saving souls; and
that some plan be devised at this
conference that will result in
increased study Of the lessons;
that the S. S. workers in train
ing schools be continued; that
the officers Of the S. 5. be elect
ed same as other church officers
and serve one year instead Of six
months as at present; and that
the secretaries for the S S work
in 1.-THE various conferences be
chosen who can give their entire
time to the work. X. X.
