Scholars hold that the original Gospel of st.
Luke was in Greek The apostle a physician
of Greek descent, and his gospel gives evidence
of scholarly attainments Early chronicles state
that the manuscripts of St Luke's gospel was
one of the treasures given to the monastery by
the Emperor Justnan in 527 A D. The build
ing contains numerous representations of the
apostle writing his gospel. and these appear to
have close association with the foundation of
the establishment.
The library is known to contain about 500 an
cient volumes filled with manuscripts in Greek,
arabic Syrac and other languages. AS one of
these great volumes may contain hundreds Of
manuscripts, the wealth of the library can only
be guessed at Among its curiosities is very
ancient complete manuscript of the Psalms writ
ten on its leaves in microscopic writing.
This monastery is the oldest continuously in
habited building in the world 1t founded
by Iustinian in about 527 A. D.. and has been
occupied ever since. 1t is surrounded by walls
80 feet high, and defended by cannon, for it was
cut OF from the civilized world for centuries
Until recently everybody who entered was hoist
ed by rope these walls
The earth on which the vegetables of the
monastery are grown was brought from the Holy
Land for there is no soil in the vicinity In the
first few centuries of the Christian church the
Sinaitic Peninsula was the refuge of many Chris
tians fleeing from the Roman persecution. Then
the church trumphed and for centuries after the
gifts from emperors and kings.
Then came the Mohammedan outbreak. Dur
ing the centuries when the followers of the
Prophet overran the eastern world this little spot
held out for Christianity.
The convent stands at the foot of the noun
tain called Jabal Musa, which, according to many
authorities, is the actual mountain where the
Ten Commandments were committed to Moses
by the Lord The site of the monastery. accord
ing to this theory, is the spot where Moses de-
livered the Commandments to the children OF
Israel This is disputed question, but there is
little doubt that it is an important site for the
natives in all ages have revered it,
Here passed the children of Israel during their
40 years wandering their way from Egypt to

DECIDEDLY POOR
FARM COMBINATION
Dogs Have More DemoraIizing
Effect on Sheep Industry
Than Cholera on Swine.

Sheep and dogs make a decidedly
poor combination on farm. The
farmer is inclined to be friendly to-
ward the farm dog, for there is a big
place for him to fill, but, after all, a
dog is a dog, and the whole family
must be held responsible for the mis-
chief done by few. From one town.
ship the report comes that the dogs
there killed $11S worth of sheep dur
ing the past year, says writer in an
exchange. We doubt if all the dogs
in that county are worth that much,
but there seems to be little that can
be done to relieve the situation.
Yet one thing is certain: So long
as the dogs are allowed to roam over
the country in their murderous quest
there will be small chance for sheep
Industry to grow. This seems to have
an even more demoralizing effect on
sheep industry than hog cholera does
on the swine industry.

Old Testament are identified by the monks ana
by local traditions. There is a peak caheu Jaoa
Ras.es-Safsaf, which is said to be the exact spot
from which Moses witnessed the worshipping or
the golden calf by the children of Israel 1t is
small peak, giving excellent view OF large
plain, which might very we'll have been the place
where the Israelites indulged in their ldoiatrous
festivities as described in Exodus:
"And if came to pass as soon as he came nigh
unto the camp that he saw the calf and the dane
ing; and Moses's anger waxed hot, and ne cast
the the tables out of his hands and brake them
beneath the mount.
And he took the calf which they had made
and burnt it in the fire and ground it to powder
and strewed it upon the water, and made the
children of Israel drink of it"
The peak where Moses is reputed to have wit
messed this scene is part of the same group
where the leader of the chosen people received
the Ten Commandments from heaven. The local
traditions assigning sites for all these ancient
occurrences seem very reasonable.

PAYS TO MASTER
THE YOUNG COLTS
Easier to Keep Youngsters From
Learning Bad Tricks Than to
Break Them of Them.

The earlier a colt is accustomed to
harness the better broken the animal
will be after it comes time for him to
do some light work. 1t is easier to
keep colts from learning bad tricks
than to break them of them. For this
reason have every strap and rope
used by the colt so strong that there
is no danger of a break. Once a colt
finds out that he can get away from
the halter or other part of the har-
ness, there will be trouble, perhaps
for all time.
1t is not necessary to make idle
pets of young foals, but they should
be taught to lead at the halter, stand
tied in their stalls, as well as display
manners in the stable, wisely sug
gests horse trainer, and he adds:
"a wild, tricky foal, unbroken when
young, makes double task when
subjected to the break harness as a

never forgotten, and it pays to master

The hog lot has much to do about
determining the lot of hogs.
Long legs in hog ought to bar him

Meat, and lots of it, in now and then
a mess of boiled and mashed pota-
toes.
Little soft new corn at first. It's
hot stuff. May give the porkers the
stomach ache.
l doubt if any man ever had to fight
hog cholera who kept his premises
clean and fed right up to the mark.
Work off some of the shoats and
stop the cost Of feeding.
Get just as near to the man who
eats your meat as you can when it
comes to selling time.
A few sweet apples now and then
are fine for an appetizer. Not much
meat in them, but they help to keep
the system in good order, and so are
of value as an article of diet.
Hogs do not need much salt. A lit
tie goes a good ways. But be sure
they have that little.
Throw now and then charred stick
of wood over in the yard for the hogs
to work at. A good tonic. Keeps the
stomach in good order

milk, not change back and forth from

to brag of in the way of hogs To
win, we must do some thinking, some
planning and some putting into effect.
There will be better hogs few
years hence than there are now. Be-
fore that day comes, there will have
to be better men.
Breed to the best male you can
find. 1t may cost a little more. You
will get it all back in the better pigs
you get.
Keep your hogs cool, but don't cool
them in mudhole.
Turn off some of the shoats while
the price is booming, which is most
likely just now. Stop the cost OF
production as soon as you can. That's
the way to make money.
Better than a ring in the nose for
the hog that loves to root is good
chance to root and have good time.
Hogs are making money for you when
they are roofing good and lively.
Wheat feed, that is not too coarse,
is fine feed for hogs this time OF
the year.
Hog cholera rarely strikes the pen
of the man who keeps his hogs clean.
The disease is filth trouble.
If your hogs are shut up so they
have no chance to root, dig a load OF
sods for them now and then and
throw them over into the yard. 1t
helps to keep the porkers busy, and
when they are busy they are looking
out for your interests all right.

So much appears in the telegraphc columns of the newspapers that is not true that readers almost justified in doubting whether any of it is true This observation, course does not apply to newspapers that handle only Associated Press news, supplemented by a service by well known and responsible correspondents.
 The great asset of the Associated Press is it's reputation for reliability Now and then it is inn posed upon and and then a correspondent falls down" But the error is always corrected generally in time to prevent publicity Almost every night instructions to telegraph ltors to Il this or that story sent earlier in the night.

 Most other news services conducted upon the theory of writers fiction, that what the peo- pie want is entertainment, amusement or excite ment; that news story without foundation can be put over and will be quickly forgotten
 A service bulletin of the Associated Press gives list of a dozen more exciting stories sent recently from different parts of the world printed by papers not served by the Associated Press.
