accomplishment of a task to precede
the possibility of pleasure and then it
comes of itself unsought and unher-
aided. 1dleness knows no pleasure
and inaction can hope for the
goal of immortal happiness.
The purpose of each one of us
should be to find the right place in
life and then fill it with the best &C.
tivity. A life filled with righteous
activity and quietly and unassuming-
ly hid in Christ Jesus is not a burden,
it is. activity that brings the reaction
of true pleasure.
A pursuit of pleasure
weakens a race. 1t weakens the NOR

work and too too often has achieve

conception of the Immortality of man
not only a guide for the individual well
fare and happiness but we can see
the making or unmaking of our
country. A nation can rise no higher
than the ideas and ideals of her
people. American civilization, which
was planted in the barren soil of Mas
sachusetts, has in spite of disadvant-
ages grown to be the greatest in the
world. While 1 am not a pessimist,

Ine winter frosts are again de- senulug on the land reminding us that .ue perlou of our iveliest activities ls Iast craving to d close. Within lss than d month We will be again smut or py ourselves by the far reach Ing barriers of snow and ice. In look ing back over the present season With It's development and results one can not but be impressed with the view that Nome has made long advance. Within the brief season now drawing to a close we learned much and also accumulated much and have wit messed several developments which contain considerable promise for the future True we have not broken any records in a mining way and the sea- sonal output will probably be con- siderably. below that of last year. This is not due to any absence of resource, however, but can be laid almost en- tirely to that greatest of all our local drawbacks, the lack of water. In this respect the present season has been one of the poorest of years. An ad- ditional factor in curtailing the out
 put is due to the closing down of sey- eral dredges owing to a lack of avail able ground. The remainder have had, almost without exception. very suc- cessful seasons. Particularly is this true of the new machines installed of which there were three. All have done exceptionally we'll during the brief working period after construc- tion was completed But, the dredges are almost alone in this prosperity. Open cut mining has languished and, generally considered, was far from being up to the average with respect to the amount of ground handled and the number of days of operation. Many of the miners state, with ref erence to their own activities, that
 they have been able to accomplish but a fractional part of the usual sea-
 sonal labor and in several instances
 have complained that the working
 time and yardage mined were nearly
 thirty per cent less than for several
 years past. All this has been nothing short of a blow to the industrial life

Methods Of farming in any section

Methods OF farming in any section
are largely influenced by pubic opin-
ion. When everybody in community
gets to talking about apples. hops,
cotton, corn, grapes or wheat, then
the average man forms the habit Of
thinking in terms Of wheat, corn or
cotton, as the case may be.
The primary purpose Of corn show
is to convince the skeptical that corn
will grow here; that It can be made
one Of the leading and nSst profit
able crops; to show them what is be-
ing done and teach them how to do
It: to create public opinion that
gives recognition to the fact that:
The corn plant will produce the
largest amount of feed per acre of
any plant grown.
It is the best and cheapest feed to
make balanced ration with alfal-
ia.

the people had accepted the idea that

ever. that corn can be grown quite

parts of the couRtFy.
