The Dawn of Christianity
 As Described in THE NEW TESTAMENT
 Translated from tie Original Greek.

1 a soldier that kept him.. IT. And it came to pass, that after ! three days Paul called the chief Of itbe Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though have committed nothing against the ! people, CT customs of our fathers, yet was ] delivered prisoner from Jerusa lem into the bands of the Romans. IS. Who, when they had examined inc, would have let me go, becau~e there was DO cause Of death in me.
 19. But when the Jews spal1f against it, 1 was constrained to. az peal unto Caesar; not that 1 mad ought to accuse my nation Of
 20. For this cause therefore have II called for you, to see you, and to speak with you: because that fo: the hope of Israel I am bound WI this chain.
 21. And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea brethren that came showed or spake amy harm of thee.
 P. But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concern ing this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
 23. And when they had appointed him day there came many to nm into his lodging; to whom he ex pounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of tine law of Moses, and Out of the prophets, from mdh.a- ing till evening.
 "A, And some believed the things which were spoken, and some be- lieved not.
 25. And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word. We'll sp3l1e the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
 26. Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shalf see, and not perceive.
 27. For the heart of this people is Waxed gross, and their ears are du] of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see wi il their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and l should heal them.
 2S. Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
 29. And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
 30 And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him.
 31. Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching these things which con- cern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.

CUTTING THE ACREAGE.

It is pointed out that it is difficult to persuade the cotton farmer to plant wheat, oats and corn, that yield from $12.76 to $14.35 an acre, when cotton has yielded $21.55 an acre on an average for the past five years The Farmers union has hit the dis- ficulty in securing acreage reduction Why should the cotton farmer plant a t12 crop when he stands chance to make $21 on cotton?
 The farmer must be shown that he can profitably plant half or third of his cotton acreage to corn, wheat and oats or to other crops, and if he can not be so convinced he is going to stick to cotton, surplus or no sur plus, short price or no short price.
 In convincing the farmer that he should reduce his acreage the mis- take is in attempting ot show him that he must plant 9. money crop Il

 1 RoaRESs PROSPERITY
THE HORRORS Ov PEACE.

While we are on the subect of war, it might be we'll to remark that Ger tain diseases with which humaritv has been afflicted for many, many years, really have had more victims than, win die in Europe on the fields Of hoEol."
 There is tuberculosis, for instanc :.
 The number of deaths in the evil war were far below the size of the army that since then has died of tuberculosis in the United States.
 And tuberculosis, like war, is pre- ventaLla.
 The difference between the two IS that wars victims come in bunch, and it looks appalling for that req soE.
 But the victims of tuberculosis pass silently away without much ad ) being made about it.
 There also are the diseases c4 babyhood.
 Every year countless, thousands od babies die through the ignorance and negligence of parents. It is an awful indictment, but is made by physicians who ought to know.
 If, after the map of Europe, Africa and Asia is changed, worldwide campaign were started against tas ravages of disease such as these men, toned, the places of the fallen I Europe would soon be taken by folks who otherwise would be dead
 But it is hard to get people as ex' cited about tine horrors of peace a' they do about the horrors of war.

"The Press Can Kill Vice." an edi- torial brother arises to remark. That is not true. The best the press can do is to make it more difficult to practice vice. The diseasn must be killed by inculcating a, higher grade of morality among people. Virtue, like a good many other things, starts in the home. Only the heart can Ri I vice.

PRESS OPINIONS
VALE OF COTTON SEED.

If the ei, mills a"e right, that they cannot afford to pay more than $l? to $14 a ton for cotton seed, then cot tonseed meal should sell for $2O a ton, huiis at $5 ton, oil at 90 cents gallon and linters at l 1-2 cents a pound. On that basis the following shows cos. and profits:
 Receipts
 500 pounds meal, at $20 ton. $ S.Oo 700 pounds hulls, at $5 a ton... 1.73 300 pounds Or 400 gallons oil, at BOG gallon. n............. l2.0o |1O6 pounds lint2ls, at 1 1-2c per ooo o- Cost.
 II ton of seed, at $14.... .$14.Oo Expenses of working 1 ton of
 Seed ................. o.Vo Profit ....... o'Ao
 Total $23.2o
 We have reliable information from a mill that worked it's seed last year for $4.40 ton and no one believes that cottonseed meal will sell for SEQ a ton, or that hulls will sell for 50 8 ton, when all other feeding stuffs are going higher. CottOnseed meal is as cheap a cattle or horse feed at S25 a ton as corn at 40 cents a bushel, and it is therefore perfectly ridiculous to expect cottonseed meal to sell for SEQ a ton when corn is selling at present prices.
 There is no escape from the con- clusion that the mills are wrons i'll trying to depress the price of seed below SIG ton, and they are worth $2O at the present prices of oii,, meal and hul.s.
 But whether the mills are offering as much as they can afford to pay, CT less, shoul. make no difference to the farmer so long as that price Is less than $16 to $20 a ton. Cotton seed are worth $16 ton to the farmer as fertilizer and $2O ton for feefil.s and he should not sell pound of Seed for less than these figures.-Tae Progressive Farmer.
