President Wilson's Proclama ton.

President Wilson on Tuesday issued a
proclamation designating Sunday, Octo-
Der 4th, as the day of prayer in the
United States for peace in Europe.
The proclamation follows:
Whereas, great nations of the world
have taken up arms against one anoth-
into battle whom the counsel of states
men have not been able to save from a
terrible sacrifice; and
Whereas, in this as in all things, it is
our privilege and duty to seek counsel
and succor of Almighty God, humbling
ourselves before Him, confessing our
weakness and our lack of any wisdom
equal to those things; and
Whereas, it is the especial wish and
longing of the people of the United
States, in prayer and counsel and all
friendliness, to serve the cause of peace
Therefore, l, Woodrow Wilson, Pres
ident of the United States of America,
do designate Sunday, the 4th day of
October next, day of prayer and sup
plication, and do request all God-fearlng
persons to repair on that day to their
places of woaship, there to unite their
petitions to Almighty God, that, over
ruling the counsel of men, setting
straight the things they cannot govern
or alter, taking pity on the nations now
In the throes of conflict, in his mercy
and goodness showing the way where
men can see none, He vouchsafe His
children healing peace again and restore
once more that concord among men
and nations without which there can be
neither happiness nor true friendship
nor any wholesome fruit of toll or
thought in the world; praying also to
this end that he forgive US our sins, oul
ignorance of His holy will, our wilful-
ness and MANY errors, and lead US in
the paths of obedience to places of WIS.,
ion and to Thoughts and counsels that
purge and make wise.
In witness whereof have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington this
eighth day of September in the year of
our Lord one thousand nine hundred
and fourteen, and of the independence
of the United States of America the
one hundred and thirty-ninth.

amount of solution should be sufficient
for treating 40 to so bushels of wheat.
A good plan is to treat the seed In

gallon of the solution will be required
for every bushel of grain. Another
method is to sprinkle the solution on

America Safe.

With President Wilson at the head
of this nation and Secretary Bryan at
his right hand, there is little danger
that we shall become involved in the
great war. Things are bound to hap
pen as hostilities proceed which will
infiame the jingo spirit in this country
and those who mistake wise patience
and love of peace for cowardice will
scream for revenge for some real OF
fancied grievance. But the men who
guide our national destinies have shown
by their admirable conduct of our Mex
lean relations that they are not to be
influenced by the outcries of the un'
thinking and the excitable.

Before treating your wheat for stink
ing smut, it is best to remove all I'M
broken smut balls. Since the smut
balls are much lighter than the sound
grain, thorough tanning will generally
do this. If tanning will not do it, the
grain should be poured into barrel
of cold water and thoroughly stirred
so that all the smut balls will come
to the surface where they can be
skinned off.
