FIRST STEP TAKEN
BY FARMERS CLUB

Plans for the first branch Of the Bet
ter Farming association were formed
at a meeting of repres entative farmers
and their wives at Columbia School,
near MiddlebOrO, yesterday afternoon.
Temporary officers were chosen and
a committee was appointed to draft
bylaws and regulations, which will be
submitted at the next meeting, to be
held Friday evening at the home of
Charles Miles. The committee is COM
posed of Charles Miles, chairman,
Mrs. Young, Mrs. Fred Davis, Miss
Lottie Nolte, Harry Lands, Nathan P
White and Charles Nuegel. Fred
Davis was chosen temporary chairman
of the meeting and Fred Bullerdick
temporary secretary
Cobb and Jordan Spoke.
Charles w. Jordan, secretary of the
Richmond Commercial Club, formerly
county superintendent of public in
struction, and A. D. Cobb, Wayne
county agricultural agent, attended
the meeting. Mr.. Jordan spoke on the
advantage of a farmers organization,
and Mr.. Cobb on the plan of organiza-
ton.
1t is planned to organize branches
of a farmers association throughout
the county. The idea of organizing
the branch at the No. school origi-
mated with the farmers in that vicini-
ty. About sixty attended the meeting
yesterday. MIR. Cobb expects from one
to three Of these branches to be form
ed in each township.
The purpose of the association is to
better the general farming conditions
by working for good laws, electing
good officials, studying public ques-
tions, and to teach courses in domes-
tic science, chicken and stock raising.

EDITOR NICHOL SON
SPEAKS ON CHURCH
Tells of the Responsibility
Placed Upon the Church
In America.

Speaking on The Relationship of
Christian America to the Rest of the
World" before the Bible school of the
st. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran church
yesterday morning, S. E. Nicholson,
editor of the American FrieTe, de-
clared that the position which the
United States occupies geographically
makes it peculiarly fitted to carry on
the work of civilization of the heather
countries.
1T is the temptation of humanity to
be self-centered," said Mr.. Nicholson.
I'VE are interested in our local affairs
yet We are coming to understand that
local problems are merely part of the
problems of the entire universe We
find the same problems everywhere. 1t
is an inspiration to know that this
Sunday school is a type of thousands
of Sunday schools and that your prob
lens are being worked out elsewhere
The problems facing a city are becom-
ing worldwide problems and 50 it is in
business"
christianitys Progress.
In the course Of his remarks Mr..
Nicholson presented statistics to show
what the Christian world has done for
heather countries and what it may do
for other nations. He stated that
China has two millions of nominal
Christians; Japan 10000 Of positive
Christians, and in. Korea there has
been an average of one convert every
hour since 1887.
THE doors of Africa. India and
South American countries are being
opened to civilizing Influences" he
concluded, "and what the American
churches will do for these countries
remains to be seen, but I feel sure that
we will continue cur good work"

FREEZING BOILING WATER.
IL Sounds Queer, but to Science It Is
an Easy Matter.

IL Sounds Queer, but to Science II Is
an Easy Matter.
Water may be boiled and frozen both
at the same time The idea is little
startling, but the explanation is simple
enough. The temperature at which
water boils depends purely on the air
pressure of it's surface. If the air
pressure is high the water must be
made good deal hotter to boil than is
necessary at low pressure.
On mountains. where the air pres
sure is lower than at sea level, water
boils easily at low temperature. In
cooking vegetables of all kinds a GER
tain degree of heat is required. and
where water boils before that ve4,eta-
bes won't cook. Consequently they
have to be put in closed boiler SO
that the generated steam will create
pressure for the water to boil beyond
the required temperature.
For an experimental proof of this
fact the water is placed in a vessel
and the air exhausted above the sur
face of the water. AS the process of
pumping goes on the water will boil
violently. the steam congealinG on the
sides of the exhaust vessel. If the
pumping is continued long enough and
the outside is cooled below the freeZ-
ing point of the water the water will
continue boiling and bubblipS until it
is mass of ice.
This fact is made use of in estimat-
ing the height of mountains. At sea
level water boi!s at 212 degrees +.
This principle does not apply to water
alone, but to all iquids.-Chicago Trib-
une.
