Churches in New York realize the
great advantages of advertising, and
besides using the columns of the daily
papers in their soul saving work and
electric signs and crosses on their edi-
fees they send out solicitors, men and
women, to help swell their congrega-
tiOns and enlarge their Sunday schools,
But the most daring church lad" is
that of Rev. DIR. Fred Winslow
Adams, pastor OF st. Andrews Metho-
dist Episcopal church. He decided to
deliver series Of sermons ON Love
Stories From the Bible" for which he
had an artist draw a fetching poster
of two lovers when the moon drops
low. Thousands of copies in blues
browns and orange tints were distrib
uted, and in addition the pictures were
printed in the newspapers as paid
natter Since the minister began to
exploit the Love Stories" his congre-
cations have more than doubled.
Which again demonstrates that it pays
to advertise.

another division of the Bureau of Animal In
dustry (the Pathological Division, which will
be described 1ater) in the endeavor to eradi-
cate the dangerous horse disease, dourine.
Animals that have the disease are placed in
quarantine and appraised and slaughtered
as rapidly possible under the supervision
of State and bureau veterinarians. In in
Identifying owners there has been adher-
ence SO far as practicable, to State laws gov
erning appraisal and destruction of diseased
horse stock. One-half the appraised valua-
ton of animals destroyed has been paid
from bureau funds, such share, however, not
exceeding 500 for any one animal. There
has been general and hearty cooperation on
the part of horsemen in connection with
efforts to eradicate this disease
The Quarantine Division conducts the CO.
operative work in connection with the eradi-
cation of bovine tuberculosis and demon
strates by the proper application of tuber
culin tests, followed by post-mortem exami-
nations of reacting cattle, and the cleaning
and disinfection of infected premises, the
efficiency of the test, supplemented by these
measures as means for the eradication of
tuberculosis This cooperation is extended
to cattle owners who enter into agree
ment with the bureau for the control of
their herds, to States, health departments of
cities, and to some of the certified milk COM
missions All matters pertaining to infor-
nation relative to the control of tuberculosis
in separate herds or within the boundaries
of State are referred to this division, which
sends out the available information.

AS is indicated by its title, the Bureau of
Animal Industry's Quarantine Division con-
Germs itself with protecting the farmer from
imported animal diseases by means Of the
inspection and quarantine of live stock
brought into this country. During the past
year particular attention paid to con-
ditions along the Mexican border to prevent
the introduction from that country of cattle
infested with ticks. Notwithstanding the
disturbed conditions across the border,
Mexico's importations into the United States
of all animals except swine have increased
during the past year.
In addition to its quarantine work, this
division also answers inquiries concerning
certain diseases of live stock and, in cooper
alton with State authorities, endeavors to
eradicate such dangerous affections tuber-
cuiosis, CHAMBERS dourine, and anthrax.
Individual farmers who write to the division
for information about the eradication of
these diseases will receive such information
is available
The Quarantine Division does great deal
of its work at the ports of entry along the
Mexican and Canadian borders, through
which thousands of cattle, sheep, goats,
