same as his city brother.

During the past few weeks Mr..
t'ricker has been conducting test
OF his herd of dairy COWS which has
proved very successful and also
beneficial TO his herd. Mr.. Fricker
Is at this time the largest milk
shipper to the Highland Condensary
and has one of the best, If not the
Dest. herd OF Friesian-Holstein cat
tie in this part OF the state. For
many months he has devoted much
time and expense TO the assembling
oil this herd OF which he is now
justly proud. Among his herd are
some oil the best milk producing
COWS i'll the state, one especially, be-
ing the champion OF southern Illi-
nois, with u state record of 40
pounds OF milk per day. His herd
is headed by King Hengerveld. he
by the best sires OF Friesian-H Hol-
stein stock ever brought to Amer
, lea. For several weeks past Mr..
Fricker has had an expert in charge
OF his herd and only recently
state inspector has given d part
OF them a state record after a thor
ough test, several of them making
a record of almost 20 pounds OF
butter per week. At present he
sends twenty-one cans of milk to
from thirty-twO COWS.
The dairy business in this COM
munity has gone through all the
experimental stages and to such
dairyman as Mr.. Fricker Is due the
credit of bringing it up to the high
standard it has attained, by bring
ing into the community full-blood
stock of the best milk producing
strains. thus putting him In posi-
ton to sell to the farmers calves
which he now has for sale. One can
scarcely realize what it means to
conduct such a business as this, but
IL anyone has 4 desire to learn
something of the work connected
with carrying on. q business of this
kind, day spent there would soon
convince him that 1t is not all play,
but in fact work and lots of 1T,
yet pleasant, remunerative and very
beneficial to the land.
Another great point to be con-
sidered in connection with the
dairy farming Is the increased cash
value of the land whereon bust
ness of tliis kind is carried on.
Many residents of this community
can look lack only a few years and
see that during this lapse of time
the price of land has doubled and
in some instances more than dou-
bled in value. There is a reason
for this. There was time when
wheat was the only paying crop in
this and adjoining counties, but
not enough fertilizer was produced
producing condition. But now it is
quite different inasmuch as with
the establishment of the milk con-
densary in Highland market was
created LOT t0e sale VI thouSdiluS Vi
gallons of milk daily, thus allowing
the farmer to turn his attention
to this branch of the business.
which alone not only brings him
good returns but gives to him the
fertilizer that his land so much
needed to bring 1t up to the pres
ent state of productiveness and
value 1t has attained. For this rea-
son we can say that in marked
degree has the Highland condensary
been responsible in increasing land
values for many miles around our
city as well as advertising us to
the outside world, for so popular
has the Pet Brand of condens-
ed milk become that 1t is found in
nearly every country where milk
is used.

In due course, Moses, accompanied

himself before Pharaoh and delivered
the Divine message respecting the

dence. Is this not true in respect 20
some of our spiritual liberties also?
To some extent, at. first, our efforts
TO obey God bring greater trials and
opposition from the Adversary. The
Lord would strengthen our faith, and
cause us TO appreciate the privilege
of being set free from the power OF
sin and death, and OF being inducted
into His family.
Combinations of this very account
of the tribulatlons Of the Isarelites
were discovered by the French savant.
NJ. E. Naville, in 1884. He found the
city of Pithom, which the Israelites
built In the British Museum in
London, aud also in the Metropolitan
Museum, New York, there are some
Of these very bricks In size they
are about four to eight inches square
and about two inches thick, unbaked
but very hard.
Another traveller, describing the
walls of Pithom, says: The lower
courses for some distance up are made
of well-made bricks, with chopped
straw in them; but higher up, the
courses of brick are not so good The
straw is long and scanty. and the last
courses have no straw at all, but have
sedges, rushes and water plants
which had been mingled with mud in
their making
Preparations For Canaan.
The statement Of Exodus 1:14 is
generally understood to imply that
the Israelites were compelled 10
learn all the trades and occupations
of their masters They had been
from Abraham's time a pastoral peo-
pie. and by this very operation they
were forced. as il we're. into an in
dustrial school in the foremost civil
ization Of that day It was a severe
training, but very useful, and un-
doubtedly a grand preparation for
the necessities before them. Shall
we say that this was all OF chance
Shall we not rather say that the Lord
IN His providence was dealing with
them-humblng them, as we'll as
qualifying them for the larger oppor-
tuniues which He intended to pre-
sent?
Whoever can discern the Lords
dealings with typical Israel should
be fully prepared to note and appre-
ciate Divine providence in his own
case as a Spiritual Israelite. Never
theless, few lessons are harder tC
learn than this ont-that God super.
vises the affairs of all who are trul,
His. Il is well to remember, how
ever, that only those who have en-
tered into covenant relationship viii
God. and who are maintaining tha
relationship, can apply to themselves
the comforting words of St. Paul
that all things are working togethe
for their good-Romans S:2S.
