required for the words of nature, as
witness the Grand Canyon, and the
one almost as wonderful at our very
doors. Character above all things
must be of gradual growth. One of
the mistakes of professionalism has
been in haste and consequent loss of
ideals
The ideal purpose of character, de-
votion to God and service to humanity,
is stated in proper order: First, de-
votion to God, and second, service to
man. The first part of the decalogue
is devoted to the duty owed Deity; the
later to that due to mankind. Love is
a quality of Deity; faith of humanity.
Love comes from above; faith ascends
thither. And the grand blessings that
come from consecrated character are:
First, freedom; and, second, hope, or
progress.
In striving for consecrated charac-
ter man must have a standard, and
but one infallible one is provided.
Individualism is no guide and consci-
ence is no guide; but the one standard
is found in the one perfect character,
that of Jesus Christ With love, faith
and humility, following the great
symbol, the cross, mans best is ever
achieved.

PUT IN VEGETABLES
County Agent Birch Advises Plant

for Silage.

That farmers should get busy at
once and plant potatoes, beans or corn
for silage in their orchards is the OPP
inion of County Agent w. N. Birch,
who says that crops of the sort named
can get good results without injury to
the trees. He says that a number of
farmers are already acting on this
theory and that the orchard lands Of
the tract will be far from Improbable
this year. While it appears that most
of the apple crop is gone. there will
be a good crop of strawberries, rasp-
berries, currants and other small
fruit, and some late varieties of APP
pies in favored spots will give bet
ter results than was anticipated after
the frost last week.
Mr. Birch says that the grasshopper
crop for the present year is promis-
ing of trouble and that clover raisers
should get busy at once to combat

The New Republic. He predicts great
economic expansion for Russia after
the war. Progressive Russia is put
ting every ounce of its strength into
the struggle, for upon its outcome de-
ponds the future history of Russia for
a long time to come. But besides the
throwing off of the German economic
yoke, Russia will be confronted by
problems of a constructive character.

even larger than before the war-or
raw materials. One of the many fac
tors that made Germany's strangle-
hold upon Russian industry and COM
merce possible was Russia's lack OF
convenient and ice-free port Russia
commerce necessarily had t. go thru
the German ports. and incidentally be-
come responsible, to large extent
for the phenomenally rapid and pref
table growth of the German merchant
marine. AS a result of this war, Rus
STA must have an ice-free port. The
two years of the war have matured
Russia politically as well as econom-
ically, and an unmistakable sign OF
this maturity is the Russian peoples
realization of the part played by the
bureaucracy and it's German friends
in hampering Russia's progress. Rus
STA has entered upon a period OF
growth and development. and any part
of her national organism that fails to
grow together with the whole is
doomed by the memorable law of prog
ress to speedy elimination"
