In q booklet prepared by the COM
mission on evangelism of the federal
council, there are given brief state
ments regarding the evangeIistic COM
mittee of each denomination belong
ing to the council and there are 80.
The statement regarding the Sew
enth Day Baptist church is as fol-
lows: "Committee-Ira B. Crandall,
chairman, Westerly; Rev. Edward B.
Saunders, secretary, Ashaway; VIII
NJ. Barber, Ashaway. A
The growth of the Seventh Day
Baptist churches in the United States,
which covers period of $50 years, has
been largely the result of evangehstic
efforts. Pastoral evangelism has al
ways been strongly emphasized. each
pastor doing largely his own evan
gelistic work, although in more re-
cent years the pastor of one church
has assisted very largely in the work
with the pastor of sister church.
This plan has been both economical
and fruitful.
For many years now united effort
on the part of the churches has been
planned and put into operation by the
general conference, which work in due
time was taken up by the board of
managers of the Seventh Day Bap-
fist Missionary society and by the
missionary committees of the several
associations throughout the United
States. Under this plan men were
sent out who were expected to com
bine the work of evangelism with gen.
era1 missionary work, but later, the
plan proving so fruitful, the board of
managers commenced to send out men
whose sole work was that of conduct
ing evangelistic campaigns.

years also students preparing for the
ministry in the theological seminaries
have been sent out as eyangelists dur

have come from their efforts.

The jitneys continue to carry cad
dies to the golf grounds, to at least
double the seating capacity of the
cars, although Chief of Police Brown
ordered the discharge of a part of
the cargo of boys from a jitney re-
Gently. Since that time these tits do
not take on their youthful passengers
in the town of Westerly, or state of
Rhode Island, but over the bridge in
Pawcatuck, Conn. After taking on
the passengers the cars proceed to
Westerly and on to the Misquamicut
Golf grounds. At present there is no
ordinance regulating the jitneys in the
town of Westerly, and therefore no
law against leading an automobile
beyond its seating capacity, but there
is in course of construction an or
dinance to license automobiles that
carry passengers for hire. and this
ordinance when fully enacted can only
apply to such vehicles as operate in
Westerly and not be of intertown or
interstate magnitude.
1t is therefore a question whether
the local authorities could interfere
with the clear passage of an automo-
bile from Providence, with seating
capacity for five, that carried ten
passengers to Watch Hill or any other
point in the town; or interfere with
the auto truck that passed through
Westerly recently from Brockton to
New London and return, even if there
were not seats sufficient to accommo-
date the passengers.

Cronin Of New London requested Po-
lice Chief Brown to be on the look
out for James Monohan, aged 20. who
was wanted by the police of that city.
The message was received by Chief
Brown at o'clock Tuesday afternoon
and an hour later Monohan, who was
kpown in Westerly as Bob Miller. was
escorted to the police station by Chief
Brown Monohan said he was want
ed because he sold an automobile
which he was repairing to a Jew for
S15, although he did not own the au-
tomobile- He also said that he had
been arrested before for theft and
had served time in the New London
Jail.
The chief of police was advised that
Monohan would probably be found
in garage or livery stable. and a
good description was given of him.
The chief learned that he had been
working off and on for the past month
at the Chapman stable, but he was not
there when the chief called. Monohan
was near the Nash store, waiting to
take a ear for Watch Hill when he
was invited to take a walk to the
police station. He told the chief that
he would not return to New London
if he could prevent it, as he stood no
show against the prosecutor and judge
of the police court and that he would
oppose extradition. He was placed in
a cell to await the coming of an off,
GER to take him to New London
When Policeman James c. Sullivan
arrived and had a talk with Monohan
he decided to waive all rights of extra
dition and accompanied the officer
to New London

Cinch BUS.

Lexington IOWnSulp WIOle W
to the University to learn what
to do about the chinch bug pest.
The answer may help others:
Dear Sir:
Owing to the immense number
of letters which l am now re-
ceiving regarding the chinch
bug, l find it necessary to use
this form of reply in order to be
prompt. l am sorry, but / am
simply unable to write individ-
uaI replies to all chinch bug let
tiers just now. | believe, how
ever, that this will answer all
your questions. If not, l will add
a postscript.
The most frequent request is
for some diseased" bugs. If it
would do the least bit Of good,
we would be growing the disease
for distribution, but to do so
would be merely a waste Of time.
The disease is the work of a
parasitic plant and the spores or
seeds of the plant are already
present on your farm and if the
weather is favorable about
wheat-cutting time, the disease
will appear and stamp out the
pest. If it stays dry like last
year, no disease can possibly de-
velop in the field. It is Natures
method of checking the pest, but
the conditions which favor it's
development are beyond mans
control, so turn your attention to
the preparation of barriers for
use when the bugs start to mi
CRATE.
Some ask what can be done
right now, and the answer is,
practically nothing where the
bugs are widely distributed. The
bugs should have been killed by
burning them in their harboring
places before April fifteenth.
Some ask if cow-peas planted in
corn will keep them out. The
crop will strengthen the corn,
but will not keep the bugs out.
What barriers are best? The
dust barriers in dry weather
and the chemical barriers in
damp weather should be used.
The simplest dust barrier consist
of one or more parallel bitches in
which a log is kept moving. A
plowed strip well stirred is also
good. For chemical barriers
first make a path with a hoe and
run a narrow line of tar, road
oil, stock dip, or similar repellant
along the path. Renew it often
at first to keep it fresh.
The chinch bugs attack only
grassy crops and not feed on
clover, alfalfa, cow-peas, or SIM
liar crops. Plant your corn as
far from wheat-ields as possible
so that the barriers can be more
easily maintained.
If you let the bugs leave the
wheat and get into corn-felds
they will mature and lay eggs
for a fall brood Of bugs which
damage corn and pass the winter
to start the next years trouble.
To kill the bugs which get on
the first few rows of corn, a ten
percent emulsion of coal-oil is
made by boiling one-half pound
of soap in one gallon of water
and then the hot suds is poured
into a pail containing two gal
Ions of coal-oil. The mixture is
thoroughly churned an then di-
luted to twenty gallons. This can
also be used to kill the migrating
bugs on the ground or where
they may be locally collected in
wheat at this time.

The injury to crops first APP
pears where the ground is dry
est or poorest, but the bugs are
damaging the crop elsewhere
also. Do not pillow under infested
rye or other crops and plant corn
at once. The bugs will crawl
out and get the corn as it comes
up. Also do not be in a hurry to
pillow under infested wheat, for
with plenty of rain, the bugs will
do less damage, and you may yet
get a partial crop.
Above all, be ready for the
bugs when the migration starts
about the time you cut wheat.
We are glad to receive your
letter of inquiry and are ready
to help in any way, but are in
deed sorry that there is no prac-
teal treatment which can be APP
piled right now to save the
wheat.

HEAVY SELLING
OF U. S. STEEL
IN PHILADELPHIA
Pennsylvania Railroad Re-
ported to Be Buying Its
1915 Convertible Bonds
in the Open Market.

Heavy trading in United States Steel
was the outstanding feature of the local
market this morning. During the first
hour alone approximately 5000 shares
changed hands, the quotation opening at
40, the new minimum, and then advanc-
ing slightly. The buying orders were said
to be coming In some measure from Pitts
burgh.
As the day advanced the volume of
business auieted down and the general
tone became weaker, in sympathy with
the decline in Wall street, but purely
local issues held relatively we'll. Pennsyl-
vanIa was being picked up by investors.
International smokoless Powder sold at
% and one share of Lehigh Navigation
sold exdIvidend at 74A. which is the same
price as It was quoted yesterday with
the dividend on.
After advancing from IS to 4SSi. Electric
Storage sold off to Az at the close. on
tho other hand, United Gas moved UP and
81 did Lehigh Navigation certificates.
Reading shares followed the general
declining tendency of stocks dealt in on
tho New York Exchange, In the COM
pany's December and half yearly report
It Is interesting to note that the final
surplus for the first six months of this
fiscal year was within S21, 900 of that for
the half year ended December 3lst, 1918.
The Coal Company gained whereas the
railway fell off about one million. In De-
cember the amount OF anthracite hauled
by the railway was 81 per cent. less than
the year previous. while the December
decline in gross was at the rate of 1876
per cent. The tonnage for six months
fell Off Ia per cent. and gross decreased
90 per cent, illustrating how the roads
business in other han anthracite carry
ing has declined.
Tho bond market was fairly active, with
good demand for Bethlehem Steel list IS
on change and Pennsylvania Convertible
3I5s OF 1915 over the counter. The Street
was interested in the buying of these
bonds at par by a house which usually
acts for the railroad company itself. The
fact that any one is willing at this time
to buy a bond yielding only 49, per cent.
and maturing in October would appear to
be indicative of a large supply of sur-
plus funds. The inference is that the
company finds it convenient TO retire these
bonds through ~open-market purchases
now, whereas later on it may have other
uses for its money.
Pennsylvania Is OF 1915 sold at 97S,
against IS last nights close.
