WHAT is probably the most valuable
tree in the world is an alligator-pear
tree at Whittier, Cal, which Melted its
owner a profit of $3,2O6 in one year.
This tree was planted in 1905 and be,
gan bearing in it's fourth year; In 1912
It bore 5000 pears which sold for $500,
while sale of buds during the same
wear amounted to 81, 7O6, making the
total given above. The tree is seed
ling, the seed having been planted with
a quantity of other seed which had
been imported, presumably from Mex
leo. Another tree which was planted
at the same time, and which stands
close to this phenomenal bearer, has
never borne more than SO pears in
season. Pictures of the tree and some
of it's fruit appear in the September
Popular Mechanics Magazine.

Since last report the wonderful has
occurred in connection with the 1911
packing, nothing less than raid by
the United Cigar Manufacturers Co.
and the American Tobacco Co. Be-
tween them they gobbled up about
1000 cases, the former getting 1000 and
the other company the rest. They
wanted it, of course, else they would
never have bought, but the reason for
this unexpected raid is not so appar-
ent, unless it is to be found in the cir
cumstance, as number of packers be-
lieve, that the Lancaster county crop
of 1913 is anything but promising, and
it is of this county's crops that these
concerns are the biggest buyers. 1t is
said on what appears to be the most
reliable authority that the prices range
from 133 to Is cents.

IT IS estimated that the scrap be

cost the state of Wisconsin close to
500, 900 in prolonging the length of
the session, and all for personal politi-
cal advantage that the average citizen
cares little about. What's the answer!

AN INTERESTING MEETING

The monthly meeting of the liter
airy department of the Woman's
Missionary Society, of the Method
list church, was held in the ladies
parlor last Thursday afternoon at 4
o'clock
The program was in charge of Miss
Annie Drake. After the conference
hymn was sung and short prayer
offered, Miss Drake took for her
Scripture lesson, the beautiful inter-
cessory prayer of Christ for his de-
ciples, whom the Master had given
Him, found in John, 18th. After
touching upon the power and need
OF prayer, she spoke of the greater
need OF entire conservation of self
to Christ, in doing His work.
AS we gazed on the sweet, pure
face of the young speaker, we Won
dered what the conservation of her
| life to His service had meant to her:
the giving up of so much that is pre-
clous in the life of young woman,
the breaking of home-ties, the going
into foreign fields, where life and
conditions are so strange and unfam-
| liar, for we knew that in weeks
time, Miss Drake would be leaving
for Nashville, Tenn, to enter the
training school, fitting herself for
the life of a missionary in foreign
fields but as she talked, we felt that
her conservation was complete.
After an earnest prayer, Miss
Drake announced the subject for the
afternoon; Korea and Japan.
Mrs. w. R. Power gave a fine map
talk on Korea, after which, Mes
dame Stephens and Northcutt sang
Duet, Jesus, and His Love-" which
was very appropriate.

PUBLIC MINISTRY OF CHRIST

Events in this part open with John
the Baptist announcing the coming Of
the Savior. He is seen on the hills.
| where the sound of a human voice
carries for miles, proclaiming the ar
rival of Jesus. Then follows the call
ling Of the diciples. Peter and An
drew being engaged in fishing in the
Sea of Galilee when they are beck
oned to by Jesus. They leave their
nets and follow their Master. Other
diciples are chosen, the pictures fol-
lowing closely the Bible story.
At the marriage feast he is next
shown, the women being excluded
from the room where the men assem-.
bled, as was the custom of the times.
The wine supply fails and He is cab
led upon to help in the difficulty.
Here He performs the well known
miracle, by changing the water into
wine, astonishing all present. Then
follow other scenes in which the
sick are healed and the dead are
raised to life The widows son is
raised from the dead and the leper
is given a new lease of life because
of his faith.

PART w.
c H RIST THE YORKER OF
MIRACLES

/ In this part is introduced the
scenes dealing with the conversion
of Mary Magdalene, and she is shown
amounting the feet of Jesus with oint-
ment Judas rebukes her and is in
turn rebuked by Jesus. Then follows
series of pictures dealing with mir
acles, one scene shows the sick man
let down through the roof because
of the crowds outside which prevent
ed him from reaching Jesus
The home of Mary and Martha is
also shown, with Jesus as visitor.
Then Jesus is shown in the streets
where a crowd of men attempt to
stone him. He rebukes them and they
stand back cowed and afraid Later
on he is shown at the tomb of LaZa-
rus where He performs the miracle
of raising the man from the dead,
and Lazarus is shown emerging form
the tomb. Other scenes show Jesus
preaching the Gospel to crowds
which follow Him. The later scenes
give a good view of the once fertile
land which is now almost barren.
PART v.
Now begins the later part of
Christ's ministry, and He is shown
in Jerusalem, while the crowds wave
palms and sing in His praise. He
is also shown entering the temple
where He sees how the house of
worship has been profaned by COM
mercial traffic, and stripping off His
belt OF cords He proceeds to drive
the money changers from the tenn
pie. At another scene presented in
this part Jesus and His deciples are
shown assembled in room and Judas
realizing that his dream OF earthly
riches will never be fulfilled begins
to plan for the betrayal of his Mas
ter
The Last Supper" Is foundation
of another touching scene where
Judas dips and eats the sop" and
then leaves to put his plan before
the priests.
Briefly stated the last part of the
picture is almost a word for word
portrayal of the Scripture story if
such an expression is permissible.
The betrayal of Jesus is pictured in
the Garden of Gethsemane, and He is
arrested and taken before Plate who
endeayors to avoid the responsible
ity for His arrest. The crowd de-
mands Jesus death, and finally the
SOrrowful One is given up to His en-
emies who crown Him with thorns,
spit in His face-beat Him, and ev-
entually load Him with the cross
on which He is to die. Here are pre-
scented the most dramatic scenes of
the whole picture, the climax being

similar warnings have been printed
in that periodical for several years
past. The Health Department bulle-
tin on the subject says:
