Within the last few years, another
order of preaching has appeared
among us. The statesman has edged
his way into the pulpit. Theodore
Roosevelt, William Jennings Bryan
and Woodrow Wilson have earned the
title of doctor of divinity as honestly
as Phillips Brooks, or Henry Ward
Beecher, who, by the way, refused it,
1t would be hard, indeed, to find a
speech of either one of these three re-
markable men, which might not be
called sermon and those addresses,
which they have delivered before so
many organizations on public occa-
sions, are as homiletic, If not as
evangelistic, as those of Dwight l..
Moody or Billy Sunday.
Listen to this paragraph from Mr..
Wilson's address to the Boy Scouts,
at their recent convention in Wash
ington
"a man who devotes himself to the
development of his own character will
succeed in nothing but making a
prig; but, if he devotes himself to
helping other people, his character
will not only take care of itself, but
it will grow to very noble stature.
have always maintained, in the lang
uage of manufacture, that character
is 'byproduct.' If you set to work
to make it because you love yourself,
you make an ass! If you disregard
the consequences to yourself in order
to serve other people, you will make
a noble gentleman"
There is an idea, most strikingly
elaborated, which is as truly a theme
for the pulpit, as any which you ever
heard discoursed upon. 1t is not only
ethical, but it is spiritual, in the high

est possible degree Not many will
heed the warning, perhaps, for there
are but a few of us who are deeply
enough concerned with the problem
of self-development Of making a
noble character, for ourselves. But
there are some, and one of the errors
into which they are most liable to fall,
is that of trying to accomplish that
great end, by means and efforts that
are direct, when it can only be
achieved by indirection.
! How strange that is! 1t is as If we
were told that the way to make a
house was to try to make wagon.
We make shoe, by trying to make
shoe; but we make a character by
trying to do an honest business; pro-
vide comforts for our families; help
the poor to better conditions of life;
promote moral refroms; sacrifice our
lives, if need be, for noble causes!
Just as the Standard Oil company
gets its cOal-tar products by refining
petroleum. and the Ivory Soap COM
pany it's Crisco by trying out cotton
seed for oil, man develops charac-
ter by endeavoring to faithfully per-
form the thousand and one trivial
tasks which are required of him in
the conduct of his daily life.
AS the navigator reaches his harbor,
not by keeping his eye on the deck of
his vessel, but upon the polar star, a
man becomes gentleman, not by
looking down into his soul, but keep
ing an eye out for any job he can get
to do for God, or his fellow man.
We do not want every preacher to
become a politician; but we pray for
the day when every politician shall
become a preacher.

MUSSEL MUD AS FERTILIZER
Organic Remains Of Shelifish Secure
Fertility to Poorest and Most
Exhausted Soil.

Consul Frank Deedmeyer writes
from Charlottetown, p. L. l.. Canada:
In most OF the bays indenting the
shores of Prince Edward island are
found extensive deposits of mussel
shells, so called locally. being organic
remains of countless generations of
oysters. mussels. clans, and other BIZ
valves of the ocean, and OF crusta-
ceous animals generally. The shells,
usually more or less intact, are found
imbedded in dense deposits of mud
like substance and this combination Is
a fertilizer of high value and potency.
It supplies small quantities of phos-
pilates and alkalies. An ordinary
dressing of 1t secures fertility in a
striking manner to the poorest or most
exhausted soil. The shells decay slow
ly, year by year. throwing OFF film

around Prince Edward island vary
from five to twenty-five feet In depth.

WHEY IS OF LITTLE BENEFIT
Where Taken Back to Farm From

No Condition for Calves.

Whey may be fed to calves success.
fully, but even under best conditions
results do not warrant strong recon-.
mendation. Where whey is taken back
to the farm from the cheese factory it
usually must be fed in fermented or
sour condition and is not fit for calves.
Whey contains little larger proper
ton OF fat than is found in skim milk
and a little more sugar. but only about
one-fourth as much protein. Nest Of
the food value OF the milk goes into
the cheese.
In feeding whey to calves add a
grain ration that replaces as far as
possible the matter removed In the
cheese. Corn supplements skim milk.
but with whey oil meal is to be pre-
ferred. Mix half a pound oil meal to
a gallon OF sweet warm whey and feed
like skim milk.
Where 1t is necessary to raise the
calf on whey, you had best feed whole
milk until the calf is six weeks old
and then change gradually to whey.
Some feeders prefer giving the grain
dry. There are number Of calf
meals on the market, OF which oil
meal or ground fax seed is usually an
important constituent, and these can
be used successfully to supplement
whey and skim milk.

Dust barriers in dry weather and
chemical barriers in damp weather are
recommended by Leonard Haseman OF
the University Of Missouri, for the
control Of chinch bugs. Tho simplest
dust barrier consists of one or more

good. For chemical barriers. first

ONE OF STAPLE CROPS
Sudan Grass Has Entirely Passed
Experimental Stage.
OF Especial Value In semiarid Regions
on Account Of Its Drouoht-Resist-
ant ouailties-superior
Catch Crop.

tBy DAVID B. cLARKsoN. Robs,own.
Texasl
Sudan grass has now entirely passed
the experimental stage, and has
shown itself worthy of place among
the great staple crops of America.
From bulletins issued by the depart
ment OF agriculture of the United
States and by experiment stations In
various states. the following facts re-
garding Sudan grass may be stated
with authority:
1t Is the progenitor of the sorghum
famiiy. In appearance it resembles
Johnson grass. but 1t lacks the root
stalks and therefore never can become
a pest. II is the equal If not the su-
perior. of all other forage crops in
feeding value. II has a special value
as drought-resistant 1t possesses re-
markable vitality. and will grow and
thrive in the face of the most adverse
circumstances. On dairy farms 1t can
out a loss in tonnage. 1t has been
shown that this method of dairy farm
ing has resulted In better health for
the animals, on account of the greater
variety OF food. 1t can be grown in
all sections Of the United States. ex-
cepting where the altitude Is very high
or where the climate is exceedingly
humid 1t has been experimental with
successfully as far north as Alberta.
On account of its rapid growth 1t prob
ably has no superior as a catch crop.
From seeding to the first crop rs to so
days are necessary. The second cut
ting comes on about 45 days after the
first. and the third is likely to take a
little longer-50 to 55 days. In the ex-
treme South as many as four cuttings
a season have been secured. Sudan
grass yields an average Of 300 pounds
of seed to the acre.
Sudan grass fits well into most any
crop rotation or cropping system prac-
ticed in this country. Planted in the
spring. 1t produces from two to four
crops and is killed by the first freeze
OF winter. II makes intensive farming
an easy possibility where 1t has hith.
erto not been practiced. 1t thus In
creases the possibilities Of this coun-
try for a large population. 1T produces
an average Of possibly four tons OF
hay to the acre.
For this reason our Sudan grass is
an ideal crop for the alfalfa-growing
sections OF the United States. To
sum up, Sudan grass means much to
the nation. because 1t will augment
the supply Of iives stock and live
stock products; more horses. males
beef cattle. sheep and goats; more
milk and butter. Thus the nations
food supply will be increased. working
advantage both to the buyer in the
city and the seller In the country.

LINDSEY GUILTY OF CONTEMPT
Judge Perry Insists Conduct Of Juve.
nile Court Jurist "Most Rep
rehensible"

Denver-Terming the conduct OF
the respondent as most reprehen-
sible," Judge John A. Perry, in the
West Side Criminal Court, handed
down a decision declaring Judge Ben
B. Lindsey of the Juvenile Court
guilty of contempt Of court on the
face of the pleadings. Sentence was
deferred five days. Judge Lindsey is
in the East on a lecture tour. His at
torney gave notice of appeal.
The contempt case sprang from
Judge Lindsey's action in the recent
trial of Mrs. Berta Wright, accused
slayer of her husband, John A. Wright,
before Judge Perry. Lindsey was
called to the stand June by District
Attorney Rush to testify concerning
certain statements made to him by
Neal Wright, Mrs. Wright's 12-year-
old son, who shortly before the trial
had signed an affidavit that it was he
and not his mother who fired the fatal
shot.

Insurance on teachers and other school

protests against its operation with re-

the Industrial Commission from every
part OF the state. 1t is contended by
the school authorities that in view of
the minimum risks attaching to occu-
patton in the schools, the rate of l
per cent is excessive and will tend to
compel the schools to help insure
more hazardous occupations.
The law. however, is specific in that
it fixes the rate to be paid by the
school district, the state itself, coun-
ties, cities. towns and all other taxing
units, while the rate on other occupa-
tions is determined by the risk ex-
perience of those occupations. Thir-
