METHOD Of SOLVING

PHILADELPHIA. June S.-An ade-

operation between farmers in the buy

ucts was advanced as the solution TO
high cost of living problem by speak
ers yesterday at the annual spring pill
grimage and conservation exercises at

The advancement of agriculture in
this country has reached stage
where further development depends
upon the introduction of improved
business methods rather than upon in
creased productivity. Science grad

under a system of the rural credit,

WILL EARTH BE HEAVEN?
Query Propounded in Pulpit Address
by w. E. Van Amburgh.

Isn't the earth TO be heaven after all?'
was the leading question propounded by
Lecturer w L. Van Anburgh of the Peo-
MES Pulpit Association of New York in
an address TO the Washington Temple
Congregation in New Masonic Temple
Yesterday afternoon. when he advanced
the idea that humanity after death will
not go to some distant planet called
heaven, but rather will remain on this
earth. .."
Mr. Van Amburgh was discussing the
tonic From This World to the Next
and asked another question. whether it is
not uan-made creeds after all which have
caused the human family to look forward
to going 20 some other planet after this
life is ended.
