Christ in the Evening.

We always need Christ with US, but
when evening draws on we need his
presence in a special way. 1t is grow.
ing dark, and in the shadows we need
his protection. Night makes for us a
sense Of loneliness. and we need his
companionship. Night has it's danger,
and Christ's presence gives us feel
ing of safety. Life is full of evenings
in which this prayer is fitting. There
are evenings when the skies grow
dark; and if we do not have Christ to
come in and abide with us, we shall be
uncontrolled, while his presence fills
our hearts with light. To all of US
will come at last the evening of death.
1t will be very still about the house.
The breathing will become shorter and
quicker; the end will be near. Then
we shall need Christ. If he does not
come in to abide with us, it will be I'M
utterably dark for us. We shall need
him to light us through the valley Of
shadows. Our prayer should be:
Abide with us, for it is toward eve.
ming" Then his coming will bring
light and joy. r, Miller.
The log cabin Democrat., 1916-02-21

by much the same conditions that de-
termine the proper depth. In close
retentive soils where the drains are
placed from to feet deep the lat
erals should be placed from 80 to so
feet apart. In open soils that give
up water readily and where the drains
are 3 to feet deep, the laterals may
be from so to $50 feet apart In very
porous soils the spacing may be even
greater. According to the opinion of
experts in the Office of rural engineer.
ing of the United States agricultural
department, where the land is used for
truck or other special crops, the depth
and spacing should be arranged to
give the amount of drainage desired.
In some muck lands with peaty sub
soils 1t seems that drains may be
placed too deep to give the best re-
suits with certain crops.
Unless a farmer has had consider
able experience in drainage work and
knows how to run accurate levels it
will usually be advisable for him to
employ someone who has had this
kind OF experience to assist in plan
ming and laying out the drainage sys.
TEN. Tile should have a fall of not
less than one inch to 100 feet If pos
sible and greater fall than this is very
desirable. Where little fall can be
obtained, particular care must be ia
ken to secure true grade and align
ment for the drain. If the land is
level, the drain must be started deep
at the outlet in order to get the fall.
If the ground surface is level for 1000
feet, Pinch fall to 100 feet can be
