Fellow-ChriStians.


All Christians. living or dead, whose
spirit and example have become known
to us are our helpers. The saints of all
ages, the Old and New Testament heroes
of faith. with whose testimony we are
familiar, as Well as the loving sympathy
of Christian spirits with whom we come
in personal contact, are our helpers.
BY bearing one anothers burdens the
law of Christ is fulfilled and thus the
help rendered is of heavenly origin.
Paul wrote to the Thessalonians to
comfort yourselves together and edify
one another.
The Heavenly Helper has ordained that
Christians help one another.
If we have not the helpful. sympathetic
spirit of fellowship We are not in touch
with the Divine Helper.
"InaSmuch as ye did it or did it not
to those about you is the test as to
whether or not we are relying on the
heavenly helper.
Selfishness and unselfishness decides
who are hinderers and who are helpers.
The selfish do not sign for others pain
or sorrow: do not spend their breath to
soothe a brothers care or extend a hand
the aid of the Heavenly Helper. whose
mission is ever to minister to the weary
and heavy laden. The unselfsh are
the worlds helpers. and they have a right
to divine assistance and to receive divine
favor, but
No ray OF glory lights the breast
That beats for self alone.
Christians are helpers to one another
joys and fellow-helpers to the truth

Covetous Prophet.

Balaam, 1.-The Devourer," possibly Of
knowledge, does not, in his actions, ap-
pear like an impostor. He possessed. as
a poet and prophet. great intuition of
the truth Although his mind was illu-
minated, his heart was not given up
completely to the will of God. Satan
attacked this gifted man at the point
of his weakness when he offered him,
through the agency of Balak, the t0mpt-
ing bait of gold and Silver. Baiaam,
who knew full well that his power came
only from divine revelation and under
stood Jehovah's relation to Israel (poS-
sibly through the wireless messages OF
travellers who carried across the desert
the remarkable story OF the experiences
of Israel during the Exodus) besitated
about cursing Israel. II his heart had
been right, he would not have tampered
with temptation.
Balaam's love for 1.-The wages of un-
righteousness was the primary cause
of his undoing. In his greedy desire for
money, Balaam revealed the character
.istics OF many modern men. who sac
rifice their honor, health and happiness
to obtain wealth. If it were not for this
defect in his character he might have
taken high rank as prophet OF God.
Instead of being enrolled among the
faithful prophets of Jehovah in His
records of fame we find the name OF
Balaam recorded in Scripture as an. ex-
ample of the awful folly of an apostate
as danger signal to those who run
"greedily after the error of Balaam for
reward Peter evidently found In this
false prophet an example of the Vliest
character of fallen humanity.
The lesson reveals how Jehovah, who
saw. the religious element and possibili-
ties of service in the prophet. sought TO
convert. him from the error OF his way.

Illuminated for this long every day, the

rooms are lighted for short intervals
only and the cellar and woodshed
lights are snapped on for only few
minutes at time. For the whole
house and for the barn, an average of
three hours per day for each lamp
would seem to be ample, and five
lamps will afford much more light than
now suffices for all the purposes OF the
farmstead If the householder, then,
can rid himself of the idea that, if he
introduces electric light at all, he must

County Cattle As

| Display Shows Remarkable Growth in
Cattle Industry; Many Types
Exhibited
STEADILY INCREASING
Silos Gain in Popularity; Sheep or
Hogs Desirable to Make Use of
ROughage
(By E. Barensfeld)

The display of both dairy and beef
types of cattle at the recent Redwood
County Fair is indicative of the great
advancement going on in this county
in the matter of live stock develop
ment. Judging from the large num-
Der of feeders and stockers being
shipped into the county, it is very evil
dent that the banks are urging the
farmers to go into feeding on larger
scale than usual this fall. This is
quite in line with the concerted move
ment by the Governor and the Bankers
Association towards liberal extern
sion of credit to responsible farmers
for this purpose.
During the past two months fifty
car loads of feeders have been shipped
in to Redwood Falls alone, and it is
probable as many car loads, if not
more, have been shipped into other
parts of the county. The bulk of these
cattle have come in from South ST.
Paul, although good many were
shipped direct from Kansas City and
South Dakota points.
Many Farmers Feeding
Among the larger feeders in and
near Redwood Falls may be mentioned,
Robert Stewart, who fed something
like $50 head of cattle last year, and is
planning on feeding an equally large
number this year. Mr.. Stewart has

PSYCHOLOGY IN BASEBALL
Much of Pitchers Success Due to
"Drum Glove" Worn by
Catcher

Once upon time there was pitch
er in certain league who was regard
ed as a star. And the reason for his
success was this:
He always warmed up with GER
tain catcher. 1t was this catcher's
duty to receive the ball in such man
ner that loud report sounded across
the field every time the ball struck the
mitt. The pitcher, hearing these loud
reports, would smile and feel content
ed and confident. He knew then that
he had speed. Any time the bah strik-
ing the glove did not produce noise
like . crack Of q Springfield rifle the
| pitcher was ineffective.
This may sound like fable, but it
is far from such. There are two vet
eran catchers who well remember this
| pitcher. One of the old timers used
to catch him in practice and recalls
the effect Of the loud reports.
This incident is not dead and bur-
led part of the past. Parallel cases
can be found today, and the custom is
growing. And the demand for the

Illinois Fond of
North Star State
Commissioner Fred Sherman Much
Gratified By Interest Shown in
Minnesota at Illinois Fair

Minnesota is attracting thousands
of homeseekers this year. The bulk
of these come from the states of Iowa
Illinois and Indiana. The Minnesota
exhibit at the state fairs of Illinois
and Indiana were particularly attrac-
tive to the farmers of those states and
daily people are visiting Minnesota in
search of moderate priced lands, who
received their first inspiration to seek
a home in the North Star State, by
visiting the Minnesota exhibits during
their state fairs.
At Illinois last week thousands of
names Of prospective Minnesota home
seekers were registered by the men in
charge of the Springfield exhibit and
literature setting forth Minnesota s
great advantages as place in which
to acquire a home at moderate cost,
will be mailed to them from the State
Board of immigration office at ST..
Paul.
The people living in the territory of
high priced SITS and 1925 an acre lan5
In the states above mentioned, are
looking for an opportunity to secure a
home where it does not require so
much cash to make start, and with
in short time there will be a large
increase in the movement towards
Minnesota and the moderate priced
lands. In Illinois last week at the
State Fair, hundreds of farm renters
and factory men visited the Minnesota
exhibit booth and stated freely that
they were going to make a trip to Min
nesota in the near future, with view
of taking advantage of the great op-
portunities offered here for homebuild-
ing. All of them have means but not
enough to start a home within the
states of high priced lands. Commits
sioner Fred D. Sherman of the State
Board of immigration says, that the
interest shown in favor of Minnesota
at the Illinois State Fair far exceeded
any and all expectations.
