Getting the Spirit"

The state is referred to as getting
the spirit" by the evangelists, while
the laymen speak Of it as under the
influence" In the several weeks that
the revival has been going on about
20 persons have had these experiences.
The meetings often continue until
nearly morning and people come for
miles around.
The evangelists give their names az
F. E. Kierstead, Ferdinand Decves and
Havelock Knox. They belong to sect
which they say has missions in many
places and they travel from place to
place holding meetings. They ask for
no financial support more thaa Voiun-
tary collections, just enough to de-
fray their expenses.

Oyster Bay, April 2-As an aftermath
of the luncheon at the home of Robert
Bacon at which he met Elihu Root, SEN
ator Lodge and Gen. Leonard Wood, Col
Theodore Roosevelt was urged Saturday
to go on the stump in a campaign to
arouse the patriotism of the country and
bring home the real need Of adequate
preparedness for national defence.
Among other guests who journeyed up
Sycamore Hill Saturday were Mr.. Bacon
and Henry A. Wise Wood, who resigned
from the naval advisory board because
he felt that the steps contemplated were
inadequate. They talked over the ques-
ton of speaking tour with the colonel.
but no conclusion was reached.
Preparing Great Speech
The colonel said that he did not want
to make a trip and that he probably
would not do so in any case until after
he delivered his address before the ILL
nois Bar Association at Chicago on April
%. He will talk about preparedness there
and national honor, and he will give
great care to the preparation of the
speech.

Wilson covered. There were arguments

BY Special Service
Washington, May 10.-The Depart
ment of Agriculture's Year Book" for
1915, Uncle Sans publication de luxe
for farmers, is now off the presses
in the big government printing office,
and readers of this letter can secure
the book free by applying to their
congressman. Hundreds of thousands
of farmers in this country have in
past years received the annual Year
Book. The farmer who has never yet
read one has treat in store for him
self. A set of these books makes one
of the best farm Libraries imaginable.
Interest and attractiveness are the
chief aims of those who compile these
annual volumes, which are handsome
ly bound in blue buckram with silver
lettering Outside of the annual report
of the Department and the statistical
tables of the 1915 crops, the book is
filled with a series of articles written
by the best scientists in the govern
ments employ. These articles are
written in popular style and are CO.
piously illustrated.
In fact, the illustrations are one OF
the chief elements in the volumes at
tractiveness. There are seventy-fiye
plates in the book, most of them SUI
I. In oh xul1 q
but few plates in color.
The subjects treated range from CO.
operative buying to winter crows
roosts. There are twenty-five special
articles, including subjects like civil
engineering on the farm; how to mar
ket the products of the farm wood lot /;
fruit packing and boys pig clubs.
There is also an interesting story on
a cooperative rural laundry. Although
the government provided for the pub
lication of 100000 of these Year Books
the supply is usually exhausted early.
Slave Labor Binder Irvine
America abolished human slavery
fifty years ago, yet how many of our
citizens know that one of the most
important supplies of the American
farm, binder twine, is the product OF
slave labor?
Binder twine is nearly all nanufac

in the State of Yucatan, Mexico. Dur

Then he went on to tell how the

they are assumed to owe them. But
however real or fanciful their debts,
they can never ransom themselves.

them officially, but the law is not
