The Boston Pilot, August II, 1915. contained
an exhaustive report Of the fourteenth annual con-
veniion Of the American Federation Of Catholic
Societies which was held In Toledo Ohio. August

From that report Of the doings and sayings Of
Rome 8 conglomerated arms and armies and other
hghiing machines we CLEAN q few Of the most no
tioeably nsfarious doings and sayings As follows:
The report Of Anthony MAtre, secretary Of the
Federation, "discloses" the work Of the Fedora
ton regarding the efforts made 10 forbid the cir
euatiOn through the mails Of scurrilOus and SIAN
derous literature"
We know and every well posted patriot knows
that II IS NOT THE sCURRILoUs PAPERS that
Rome wants kept out Of the mails What Rome
sought, AND WHAT THE FEDERATION HOPED
TO SECURE, was q double-locked muIIle on oppo-
sition and exposure 1T WAS THE MENACE
ROME WAS AFTER
Rome wanted The Menace suppressed because
1t TOLD THE TRUTH concerning her infamy and
cruelty her graft and tyranny.
Fitzgerald was in congress FOR THE FEEDER
ALTON. He did all he could FOR ROME FOR
HIS CHURCH but failed 10 get his muzIle fastened.
Rome still wants The Menace squelched because IL
still tells the truth.
Anthony Matre reviewed the Fedsration's
work in opposition to the 'hteracy test and the
Burnett Immigration Bill which was vetoed by
CATHOLIC POLITICAL EFFORT killed the I'm
migration Bill and il Is still possible for the Roman
Catholic church TO bring her ignorant and often
criminal hordes unrestricted to our country from
war swept Europe.
And they claim the church is not in politics
The hierarchy the cardinals, archbishops, bishops
and priests are ALL ACTIVE IN SUCH WORK AS
MATRE MENTIONS And il is nothing in the
world but poltics-planned, promoted and arro-
gantly thrust upon the American people by trained
and treacherous despots who would wreck and ruin
every organization, every party and every insttu-
tion which does not conform or contribute to
Rome's despicable determination to make America
Catholic
1T Is JUST THE KIND OF POLITICS ONE
MIGHT EXPECT FROM A CLOSE FEDERATION
OF TREACHERoUs TRICKsTERs
The honor that is in it is the kind of honor
that might exist among Internationally to each
other and to the leader but numerically despicable
in their treatment of outsiders.
Matre even went after the big railway officials
with demand that anti Catholic literature-THE
MENACE-be kept from employees. Listen to this
from Matre's report:
The investigation instituted by the Fedora
on regarding the circulation of anti Catholic liter.
ature by railroad men while on duty, showed that
from twenty-one railroad officials who have been
advised of the matter nineteen responded that such
circulation is not tolerated.
INSTITUTED BY THE FEDERATIoNl"
Can you indifferent Americans understand now that
Rome has tight grip on the railroads7
Can you understand that the Roman Catholic
church will brook no interference when she wishes

General Farming, Intensive Farming,
Dairying, Poultry Raising
Are of Great and FarReaching Importance to all Zion
People Living in and around Zion City

N We purchased the Zion Estate March
1st,~f911, and at once, in every possible
way, began an aggressive campaign for
the cultivation of the land in and around
Zion City.
We acquired, among other assets, be-
tween two and three thousand city lots,
several thousand acres Of farms, and sever
al hundred acres Of Lake Front land.
Remarkable progress has been made, as
all have been compelled to admit who have
attended the annual Agricultural EXPOSE
tons. Enough has been demonstrated al
future before us, if we only persevere.
When we first mentioned farming the
Lake Front land, many people laughed !;
but we have already demonstrated that it
can be made one of the greatest garden
spots in the State of Illinois.
Pictures will be presented in the next
number Of "The Theocrat, showing some
Of the things that have been done on Lake
Front land
For next season we are willing to rent
some Of the Lake Front land to Zion peo-
pie who will assure us that they will cult
vate it carefully and put forth every effort
to get the very best out Of the land. We
do not care to rent an acre Of it to any
no 10 10
The corn (making over sixty bushels to
the acre., the tomatoes probably the fin
est grown in Lake County,, the cabbage
and numerous other vegetables grown on
this Lake Front land by the Agricultural
Department Of the Zion Estate, were a
great establishment to all who saw them.
The Lake Front exhibit at the Agricul-
tural Exposition, both in 1913 and 1914,
attracted great attention and called forth
many favorable comments.
There has been marked progress during
the past three years in both general and
intensive farming There is now not the
slightest doubt that hundreds Of acres of
this Lake Front land may be made to yield
fortune in the production of celery alone
There is no question but that this is one
Of the best dairying sections in the State.
Some progress has been made in this direc-
ton, and we are interested in getting
many farmers located on the land and we'll
established as dairy farmers.

POULTRY TALKS
By ELDER o. L. TINDALL

The object Of these talks, if we may so
call them, on the poultry business, is two
fold-frst to create an increased interest
in the business, and second, to give some
helpful suggestions to those who under
take it.
IL successful in this, we believe we can
render a most useful service to man and
to Zion, and will be doing service for God.
No legitimate business in Zion is secular !!
It is all religious!
The poultry business is of vast impor-
lance.
It offers most fruitful field of employ
ment 1t has many peculiar advantages
over any other occupation.
The magnitude of this industry at the
present time in our country is quite be-
yond our belief According to the govern
ment reports, the poultry industry sur
passes any of the industries Of the country,
except the raising Of corn, which is king.

WORKERS LEAVE FOR SOUTHERN
STATES

Six workers left Zion City Thursday
morning on the 6:53 train for various cit
les in the Southern States
Deaconess Belle Schelhorn and Deacon
ess Helen Buhmann, who have recently re-
turned from Winnipeg, Canada, left for
New Orleans; Deaconess Clarissa Ander-
son and Deaconess Louise Zweizig, who
have just returned from Kansas City, Mis-
souri,, left for Houston, Texas Elder Frank
Robinson and wife, who have spent several
months in Monmouth, Illinois, left for Kan
sas City missouri and Kansas.
These workers will be followed by two
to Philadelphia two to Atlanta, Georgia;
two to Birmingham, Alabama; and two to
Charleston, South Carolina With the ex-
ception of Virginia, North Carolina, Ten
nessee, West Virginia, and Mississippi, all
the Southern States will be represented by
Zion workers. The General .Overseer ex-
poets to have workers in these states be-
fore many months.
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1915-01-09

In her remarks, Deaconess Schelhorn
thanked the General Overseer and the
members of Zion for their kindness while
in the field and since her return to Zion
City. She stated that the people in Win
nipeg are very careful what they read !;
but the Leaves of Healing were we'll re-
ceived and eagerly read by great many
people. The Deaconess said that they
each carried about fifty copies Of Leaves
OF Healing under their arms daily and four
hundred messages; but they found the
work very pleasant, and they were glad to
go once more into the field
Deaconess Zweizig told Of being led
into Zion fourteen years ago. She was
glad to go to the South, although she had
never been there before She also spoke
OF Mr.. Heidel's testimony which had been
a great blessing to some musicians she met
in st. Louis.
During the meeting an Identification
certificate, containing the photograph of
each worker with instructions over the
General Overseer's signature was handed
to each Of the workers.

FIELD RK ERS

Six Of the Field Workers left Zion City
Thursday morning, January 7th, Dea-
conesses Buhmann and Schelhorn go to
New Orleans, Louisiana; Deaconesses
Zweizig and Anderson, to Houston, Texas;
Elder Robinson and wife, to Kansas City,
Missouri
Other workers will leave in few days
two to Memphis, Tennessee; two to Biz
mingham, Alabama; two to Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania; two to Atlanta, Georgia;
two to Richmond, Virginia; two to
Charleston, South Carolina
Zion everywhere is asked to pray ear
nestly every day for all Of these workers.
and to pray that God will call other work
ers for the Field, and supply the funds to
send them.

nestled and record kept The year be-
fore, the average was one hundred thirty
four eggs during the twelve months trial.
This record is only a reasonable one,
and one that can be easily obtained by
person who will pay the simple price of
diligence and fairly good business sense.
We have done it ourselves with a flock of
one hundred hens We have experimental
on a small scale, to see what could be done
in the poultry business when carried on
for commercial purposes. We have not
attempted the fancier line, although many
have succeeded along this line also We
are convinced that the poultry business is
a good and profitable occupation, and one
that should be encouraged in Zion.
1t has many advantages over most kinds
of business In the first place, man does
not need much capital with which to start
out Many are better off if they do not
have much money to invest at first. Ex-
perience is the best asset to begin with.
Money will not buy success, but it often
proves curse, as it does in other things.
If man knows how to run the business.

One can hardly believe that there is
more money in chickens than there is in
cattle, or horses, and that they surpass
wheat, oats, barley, or any of the products
Of the soil, or hay and cotton, etc.
According to the report Of the United
States census Of 1910 the estimated value
Of the egg crop for that year was $400 000,-
600, to say nothing Of the meat value This
was on the basis Of only eighty eggs to the
hen for the year. This is about the aver
age for the whole country.
By careful selection, breeding, and pro-
per care, flock of hens can easily be
made to average from one hundred thirty
to one hundred sixty eggs in three hun
dred sixty-fve days.
At the International Laying Contest in
the experimental station Of Missouri, Just
recently closed, the average number of
eggs laid by each hen during the year was
one hundred fifty eight There were one
thousand hens in the contest, coming from
all parts of this country, and from Eng
land, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and
other places They were made up of all
the different breeds. Every hen was trap

Workers Give Farewell Addresses at Mid
Week Rally at Zion Auditorium. Great
Enthusiasm Shown as Workers Leave
For South.

Special interest was taken in the rally
on Wednesday evening on account Of the
workers leaving Zion City for Southern
territories The hymns, prayers, and the
address delivered by the General Overseer
all partook of an evangelical nature.
THE passion of my life is to preach the
gospel, said the General Overseer, "and
[ trust that it will not be long before hun
dreds Of Zion workers will be working in
all the principal cities of the world. I
have no time to waste. The work that [
have to do as Gods Messenger has to be
done quickly. 1t is my intention to visit
all the principal cities, as far as possible,
But l can only visit them once If every
member of Zion throughout the world
works for the salvation Of just one sinner
it will mean that multitudes will be res
cued from the hands of Satan"
Farewell addresses were then delivered
by the six workers.
Elder Frank Robinson in his remarks
spoke Of the great interest shown in Zion
City by the people outside He also told
Of the Sabbath Dissertation which was pre-
valent in the outside cities, and gave one
incident of party of women playing base
ball on the Lord s Day.
Mrs Robinson, wife of the Elder, told of
how she had overcome her timidity in
Restoration Work. She at first found it
very hard to do saloon work, but through
having had good deal of experience Of
late years, she has found it much easier to
do house-to-house work. She was glad to
be back in Zion City, and was also pleased
to 90 out once more into the field to rescue
sinners for God.
Miss Helen Buhmann spoke of the kind
ly treatment she had received in Winnipeg,
and she found that the Leaves of Healing
sold readily, and they were enabled to be
of much assistance to the sick in that city.
Deaconess Clarissa Anderson spoke of
the work she had been enabled to do in
Kansas City, and of the good that had
been done through Leaves Of Healing
there. She had also distributed many
pamphlets on swine's flesh.

Important meetings will soon be held,
at which we hope to be able to preside,
where general farming, intensive farming,
poultry raising, and dairying, will be dis
cussed
We want to work with optimists- with
people who are prepared to go forward
and do things
The possibilities before Zion as COM
munity in general farming, intensive farm
ing, poultry raising and dairying, are very
great
The following pictures give a fairly
good idea of what has been done, and of
what can be done, on the land in and
around Zion City.

Commercial gardens are found around
all cities Of any size or Importance. Some
gardeners are successful, while others
barely make a living, and that only by the
hardest Of work To succeed like John A.
Atwood, a commercial gardener near
Columbus, Ohio, who realized $1,000 from
a half-acre by intensive methods, and
S., 1853 on ten acres by mere extensive
methods, is certainly something to talk
about. But such is his record Mr.. ALL
wood S farm comprises ten acres He says
lettuce give the largest returns for the
energy and money expended 1t is really
surprising the large amount of lettuce you
can grow upon small piece of ground.
ANOTHER INTERESTING REPORT.
On patch of ground containing $40
square feet, c. G. Woodruff, of Illinois,
raised produce that Melted him $51.34-
this would mean $2,618 on an acre.
If your garden is not producing good
profit it is not the gardens fault There,
is gold mine in your garden if you know
how to find it. You do not have to seek
far or work hard to locate it; you simply
have to know few things, either by ex-
perience or from some one who is an ex-
pert garden-miner
