WRITING ON A SOFT PILLOW
Found Possible to Write Leglbly and
With Comfort on Train Flying
at Top Speed.

Everyone who has had occasion to
write while riding in railway train
will be interested In the fact that the
disiagreeable effects of the Earring of
the carriage are gres y mitigated by
writing on a pillow. The pillow may
be either held on the lap or placed on
a table. The pad Of paper. and the
arm which guides the pen or pencil
should both rest on the pillow.
In this manner 1t will be found pos
sil,le to write legibly and with comfort
in train flying at full speed.
The explanation depends upon the
fact that the pillow tends to equalize
the motion of the fast moving car
risge the pen is driven in every direc-
tion except the desired one, because
the constant Earring does not produce
the same notions simultaneously in
the table, or the knee, or hand and the
pen.
But the pillow, through its great pill
ability and moderate degree Of elastic
ity. not only deadens the shocks com
municated from the carriage. but
brings the inevitable motions Of the
paper and the hand holding the pen in
to accord

RAISING BRoILERs ON FARM
exceedingly Large Demand for Light
weight Chickens OF From Two
20 Two-and-Half Pounds.

cav A. C. SMITH. Professor OF Poultry
Husbandry. University Farm. st. PAU.
Mimi
The early chick is the most profit
able. yet there is profit on the late
chick provided 1t is not too late.
There is an exceptionally large de-
mand for lightweight roasters and
broilers of from two to two and half
pounds. This furnishes splendid
opportunity for those who wish to rear
and market chicks without being
Obliged to house them. Hatched In
May or June, they should easily weigh
two or two and one-half pounds before
October 1. If especially well fed, they
should reach that weight still earlier.
This is the most favorable time to
hatch and raise chickens. as the parent
stock has been out of doors long
enough to acquire splendid health and
remarkable yigor. Eggs, il sensibly
set, should hatch almost perfectly and
the chicks should live and thrive.
The equipment required is very
small-a good-sized box or a barrel,
covered with waterproof paper, set In
a dry sheltered place may be used
both to set the hen in and to house the
brood, though the barrel is rather un-
suitable for the brood after the chicks
are weaned. especially If there are
many Of them.
Both hen and chicks should he al
lowed free range after the chicks are
a few days old, to pick up large
share of their living. but in addition
it Is good plan to feed them at night.
and to give them all they will eat, as
they will grow faster and will either
be marketable at an earlier age OF
weigh more, and consequently bring
more, at a given time. Chickens OF
this weight will not, it is true, bring q
fortune, but 1t must be remembered
that they cost very little to rear. The
fact that the earlier they are market
able, the better the price, should not
be lost sight of. For this reason II
pays to feed them little where there
is not an opportunity to pick up abun
dance Of food.

incongruities creep in? Does the man
who is claiming the blessings of the

If his time for prayer or Bible study
is broken into? Does our religion
make us steadily more attractive and

must come from God, since man has
nothing to offer.
When God told Abraham Il, take his
only son Isaac. and offer him as sac
rifice4 on Mount Moriah. the aged
patriarch obeyed Instantly. He even
arose "early In thesmorning." and set
out on his sad journey. When they
had reached the appointed place, Isaac
said to his father, Behold the fire
and the wood: but where Is the lamb
for a burnt offering?" And Abraham
answered. my SON. God will provide
himself the, lamb for a burnt Offering .
and God did.
So in all the ages the moral sense
of mankind has been searching the
universe for some adequate atonement
for sin. The best they could find did
not satisfy their own sense OF justice.
The position of the heather world
without the Bible is this. Lord. this
is the best we can find. It is not suit
able nor sufficient we know, but what
can we do? Behold the wood and the
fire, but where is the lamb for burnt
offering?" Revelation answers, God
will provide himself the lamb for the
Offering" and he has, even the lamb
of God who taketh away the sin OF
the world. HE was wounded for our
transgressions, he was bruised for
our iniquities. All we like sheep have
gone astray; we have turned every
one to his own way; and the lord
hath laid on him the iniquity OF us
ALL"
This then is the scripture method OF
getting right with God-justification
through faith in Jesus Christ. "God
was In Christ reconciling the world
unto himself, not imputing their tres
passes unto them" e Cor. 5:19). No
tice also that it is the death of Christ
and not his life which Is the ground
of our reconciliation. Much more
then being now justified by his blood
we shall be saved from the wrath OF
God through him." (Rom. $50.
Our Unitarian friends are fond o.
talking about the beautiful life Of
Jesus, but the life of Jesus alone Ii
simply encouragement to the sin
ner, because ne mas no power or repro
duce that life, were it not for his
| death Jesus Christ might have gone
about saying beautiful things and do
ing good until this day, but had he moi
made atonement for US by his death
we should still be burdened with the
guilt of sin. Not in the Manager, mol
on the mount, nor in the garden was
our atonement made, but on the cross
who his own self bare our sins In his
own body on the tree" Il Pet. 2:24).
Three things are to be remembered
BY the death Of Christ we are de
livered from the guilt of sin.
BY the life of Christ in US we are
delivered from the power OF sin.
BY the coming OF Christ We shall BE-
delivered from the presence of sin.

Use Of RESISTANT" Cabbage Seed Saves

the crop grown by those who cater
to these demands. The prices vary
greatly according to the season and
location. The price per ton, as indi-
Gated by fifteen correspondents cater
ing to the trade of different cities,
varies from IS to SIS. During the
past few years. considerable stimulus
has been given the growing Of cab
bage through the sauerkraut factor
les, many of which contract at fair
prices for the entire output Of cab
bage.
Many growers maintain that cab
bage crop Of nine tons per acre Is a
better paying crop than corn. wheat
or oats under fair yields.
In some sections near the large
markets, many growers have been
driven out of business, so far as
cabbage culture is concerned, through
the ravages of certain fungus diseases
affecting this plant. Much hope is
entertained of the possibility of secur-
ing disease-resistant strains.
This is aswork that requires several
years for positive results. Sometimes
1t is desirable even after securing
resistant plants to cross-breed these
with marketable strains. as it Is often
the case that resistant strains or va.
rieties are not high yielding or of
desirable quality. 1t would even seem
profitable for growers to continue
desirable strains by selecting those OF
the proper type and yielding capacity.
The practice Of purchasing seeds from
promiscous retailers often proves a
risky business. One need be no
specialist to note that many irregular
| types, and low quality, poor yielding
strains are to be found throughout
the cabbage districts. This difficulty
can be remedied only by purchasing
from reliable seed houses, or by the
growing of seed from carefully Sc
lected, home grown stock.
| Prof. L. R. Jones of Wisconsin has
found that various commercial fer.
tilizers. as we'll as soil disinfectants
are wholly useless as preventive agents
for the control of this disease in in
fected soil. For several seasons he
has turned his attention chiefly to
ward the breeding of resistant strains
and reports most substantial prog
ress in this direction. In fields planted
with commercial varieties in 1910
where the disease caused almost al
entire loss, the few naturally resistant
heads were selected and seed raised
therefrom in 1911. While CONNER
ciai seed planted on infected fields
gave in 1912 only 81 per cent of living
plants, the cabbage grown from TIT
resistant" seed developed Sc per cent
live plants, over half of which formed
heads. Seed produced from the bes
head gave SO per cent of properly ma
tured heads. These results show tn
influence of careful selection and ind
cate clearly the great possibilities tina
lie In the use of home grown seed @
disease resistant strains.
