PLEA FOR DEsPisED BAT.
Very Useful Animal and Should Not
% Destroyed, Say Aar:eulturists.

Special to Times Republican.
Washington, Sept s.--Accordtng to
communication just received by the
department Of agriculture. q plague OF
bats has made living unpleasant In
parts of Kentucky. In reply to q re-
quest for Information AS TO how the
bats may be kept out Of houses, the
Biological Survey states that the only
way Is to make dwellings bat proof By
stopping up the holes where the bats
nest and that 1t Is impracticable to
Kill them with sulphur or other FUMES
as they will die In the house and their
dead bodies become a nuisance.
The holes may be discovered by
watching at twilight to see where the
bats come out OF the building and they
should be stopped up at night while
the bats are abroad.
AS rule bats do not migrate from
one section of the country to another
but when driven from some habitation.
as a tree or cave. which has been
destroyed. they may attract attention
by selecting a new abode.
Bats eat nothing but insects and
consequently are ordinarily benefit
rather than a plague to neighborhood
as they destroy mosquitoes. and
great number Of other insects that
harm crops and orchards,
The superstition that they seek 10
tapgle themselves In women's hair Is
without foundation. according to sci
entists OF the department. On the con-
trary. the ordinary bat Is n harmless
and q distinctly valuable animal eco
nomcally This. OF course. does not
apply to tho vampire bat of the south
which sucks the blood of animals and
has done much to encourage the gem
eral preiudcve against all bats.

After Abraham had accepted the Di-
vine call and become a sojourner in
Canaan, his fiocks and herds increased
greatly, under Gods blessing. Others
of Gods servants In the past were
greatly blessed with riches; for in
stance, Job. But the blessing Of the
Lord very rarely makes wealthy His
sanity people during this Gospel Age.
1t may be asked, Why this change
In Gods dsalings2 The reply of the
Scriptures is that up to the time of
Christ Gods blessings were to men as
men; but since then Gods saints are
New Creatures In Christ" The terms
of discipIeship are that they sacrifice
their claims to all earthly riches and
blessings, to become heirs OF God and
ioint-heirs with Jesus Christ to the
Heavenly inheritance. God dealt with
Abraham as a friend and promised him
earthly blessings. But He accepts Je-
sus and His followers as sons, and
promises them Heavenly things.
Abrahan,'s Friends Not Joint Heirs.
Lot was a man nearly Abraham's
age, the son OF Haran. God did not
call Lot, nor any other OF Abraham's
relatives, but merely himself, to be the
recipient Of the promises. This did not
hinder Lot from being with his uncle,
but permitted him to share the bless
ings of Divine providence, which guild
ed Abraham's affairs. Similarly, the
spiritual children Of Abraham alone are
heirs to the Abrahamic Promise, and
not their friends and relatives, although
the latter may share reflex blessing
of spiritual influence through associa-
ton with them.
These spiritual children Of Abraham
Christ and His consecrated followers,
are particularly specified as the heirs
OF the Abrahamic Promise. (Gala-
tians 1920 They All have faith and

The dy will make it's appearance in
midsummer The fly aims to deposit
its eggs within or close to the nostrils
Of the sheep. This is accompanied by
no pain to the sheep. The eggs hatch in
q few weeks. and the little worm as
