TARIFF AND CROPS.

1t is rather early to begin to bank the returns
from the crops of 1913 Ii is good to have the May
report indicate record yield of winter wheat, for
example, but spring is not summer not to speak of
autumn. Floods can come to drown crops out; and,
as it may be recalled, it was about dozen years ago
that the corn crop, after having made splendid
start and continued it until the first of July, was
burned up.
No more than chickens can be counted before the
eggs are Matched the crops be absolutely meas

He carries a gold-headed cane.
He's commonly called a good dress

Has dignity, manner and poise;

A LECTURE ON
Christian Science
By Francis ]. Fluno, C. S. d.
Member of the Board of Lecture

First Church of Christ, ,Scien.

DR.. Flumo said in part: Christian
Science is the law of Truth" (Science
and Health, p. 482, line 20, known.
understood, and found demonstrable.
1t is the Science of being, the Sci
ence of Life. 1t is the knowledge of
Truth and true being, reduced to a
system. Its name defines it, for it
is perfectly Christian, because it
ceuntenances no wrong, either in
theory or practice. 1t is scientific,
for it admits OF no error, either in
premise or conclusion.
Christian Scientists are individuals
who have found this truth and
found it to be true; found Christian
Science and found it to be scientific.
and are succeeding in a measure to
demonstrate it upon themselves and
others who come to them for help.
The Bible and "Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures" by
Mary Baker Eddy, are the text
books of Christian Science. Chris
tian Science is not another relig-
ious belief. it is science. And
science is something to be under
stood and demonstrated, not merely
believed. Christian Scientists are
studying to understand Christian
Science, but not trying to believe it.
Christian Science is not something
that Mrs. Eddy has created or in.
vented. 1t is what she has discover.
ed and given to the world. Science
and Health and the Bible, when
rightly understood, disclose the fact
that God is the only Mind and the
so-called mortal mind is but the
carnal mind, that must be corrected
by divine Mind
Christian Science is not the mere
superficial idea of not speaking evi
or not talking sickness, but tha
sickness and evil are not the fac,s o:
being; they therefore are not onl.

but are not true, and if spoken of a
all, they must be exposed as errors

Christian Science teaches there is
no reality in sin; that God made all
that was made and all He made was
good; that God did not make sin.
therefore sin. sickness, pain and
death. evil, error, and discord of all
kinds do not belong to God nor to
His creation, and are no more part
of the great fact of being than the
errors and misunderstanding of
mathematics are a part of the sci
ence of numbers.
Christian Science teaches call is
Mind, there is no matter" And
the Scriptures declare Heaven and
earth shall pass away, but my words
shall not pass away" What does
this teach but that all matter and
materiality shall pass away, but the
divine Mind and His idea shall re-
main forever.
Christian Science teaches that all
is good; not, however. that sin and
evil are good, but that all that is, is
good, and that which is not good, is
not at all. Sickness, sin, and death,
matter and mortality, are not of
God, the only good, and therefore
are not good; hence are not at all.
Christian Science teaches what the
Master taught, that There is none
good but one one that is, Cod

NO NEED TO ~HoLp PHONE"
Sound MagnIfyina Trumpet Which
Will Tell You When It 10 Time
to Talk.

There is a sound magnifying trum-
pet of fiat shape, behind which is a
small attachment intended to support
the telephone receiver. When it be-
comes necessary to hold the line.
when calling up or replying, instead OF
the person standing with the receiver
glued to his ear he places the receiver
upon the time saver, bringing the ear
piece into position with the sound
.magnifier. He is then at liberty to
resume his duties until such time as
the person required at the opposite
end attends his instrument.
This is notified by the speech trans
mitter being magnified by the time
saving device so as to be perfectly
audible at a distance. The receiver
may then either be withdrawn and
held to the ear in the usual way, or
left in connection with the magnifier,
hearing being quite as simple and
easy as under normal conditions. An
other advantage Of the invention Is
that the users two hands are left free
to carry out any other requisite task.
such as the turning up of documents.
making references, writing down mes

SOME HINTS ON cHINcH BUG
Experience Of Illinois Agricultural E,e-
pertinent Station May Be Of In
terest to Farmers.

The experience of the Illinois az
ficultural experiment station with
chfnch bugs discovered in the spring
Of 1912, may prove Of great value to
farmers who may be troubled by the
pest this year. Last spring the ILL.,
nois station found that the chinch bugs
survived the winter in excellent con-
diticn and ON April'25 we're scattering
on the wing to lay their eggs. The
escape OF the bugs on foot, out of fields
of small grain At harvest time. u
thought to be best prevented by sun
rounding each field with a line Of
thick, viscid, road oil, with post holes
beside it some So feet apart. Such q
line can be made and kept effective
long enough to catch virtually all the
bugs in a field at minimum expense
Of IS cents a mile per day. Coal tar
may be used for the purpose where
road oil can be obtained, but it must
DO much more frequently renewed to
keep it effective. A well-made dusty
furrow, with post holes in the bottom,
may serve q temporary purpose in
very dry weather. but il made useless
by rain. Chinch bugs may be killed
on corn, without injury to the plant. by
. tobacco preparation (black-leaf 40)

ATTENTION NEEDED BY EWES
Ample Supply Of Dry Fodder 10 Or
Of First sentiaIe-GIve Atten-
tIon to Lameness.
CAV WI. h. 0rLBERT,)

By ". r. GILBERT.)
Il Is well to see that the eve nocK
has an ample supply Of dry fodder.
Nothing is better for them than good,
well got hay. Ewes should never, un-
der any circumstances, be allowed to
have roots alone nor should they be
fed on roots and grain. or grain and
cake.
Those who feed this and omit the
hay are spending money in waste. A
judicious combination of all these
would form the ideal food and give
the best results alike to the dam and
it's offspring. The lamb must not be
neglected.
Provision must always be made
too that dry lairage can be secured
with good shelter from the wet and
wind and separate pen be provided
in which specially prepared food suit
able to the palate Of the young lamb
should be placed. care being taken
that only . small quantity at time
should be placed in the trough and
that any left over should be removed
before a fresh lot Is given.
In the focks where there II any
signs of lameness in the ewes atten-
ton should be at once given. No
matter how slight, the ailment should
be Immediately removed from the
flock and not allowed to run with
them again until q cure has been Of
fected.
Lameness among the ewes means
lameness among the lambs and there
is probably no greater source Of loss
among young lambs than this.
