Some Results OF Corn
Planting for the Lord.

Gaines Thompson, two boys OF
II years, and members of Sandy
Grove Church, of Alabama,
planted one ear of corn each for
the Lord. They planted in poor,
gravelly land, using no fertilizer.
ElberJ's ear yielded 81 so, while
the product from that of Gaines
sold for $2.55. Their entire
church of 172 members gave to
all missions and benevolences in
1914 only $3.50. One member
1 of Cofeeville Church, Alabama,
is said to have harvested for the
Lord IL bushels of corn from the
planting of one ear.
The pastor of North Benson
and North Fork churches, in
Kentucky, last year induced AZ
men and boys to plant one ear of
corn each for missions. Some of
these men had been hostile to
the cause of missions and had
never before qiven a dollar for
its support. The pastor took
the lead by planting an ear and
cultivating the same himself on
the land belonging to one of the
members in each church. Those
who planted were delighted in
their work. A healthy rivalry
sprang up as to who could pro-
duce. the largest yield from his
ear,
At a meeting in a certain
church in Clark County, Alabama,
the members were agreeing to
plant each one ear of corn and
give the proceeds of same to
missions. One man was present
who was not a christian but
whose wife was member of
/ this church. On the way home
he suggested to his wife that. if
she wished it, he would plant an
ear for her and that she could
give the money received there
from to missions. The wife &C.
cepted the offer. The corn was
planted, cultivated and the pro-
ceeds given to the Lord. In the
| fall, at a meeting in the church,
reports we're being made of their
Experience with corn planting.
This man who had planted for
f his wife arose to tell his story,
said he, Il told my wife that
would plant an ear of corn for
her that she might give the pro-
ceeds to the Lord. Every time
| I worked that corn | kept think
ing Yes, you are working this
corn for the Lord; yes, you are
| going to give the money that
you get to the Lord Had you
not better give yourself to the
Lord, too?' And, brethren,

The Future Wood Pulp Supply

In the Philadelphia Press we find
an editorial that should be taken to
heart all over this country and partic-
ularly in Maine. The start cannot
be made too quickly. the delay is al
ready far too long. Our exchange
says:
More than one-half Of the State is
idle land which should be made pro-
ductive for paper manufacture, Is the
assurance given to the Technical As
ISOLATION for Pulp and Paper industry
at it's annual meeting In New York.
The trees that are valuable for paper
manufacture are disappearing In New
York state The president of the Ca
madam association said that the same
is true of Canada. Its supply OF trees
fit for the manufacture of wood pulp
is approaching exhaustion and the
problem of reproducing them has pre-
scented itself.
Pennsylvania has reached the stage
of exhaustion of wood pulp trees also.
In this State the supply OF timber
trees is getting scarcer. The land on
which trees flourished for uncounted
centuries and which can easily be
again forest clad Is lying idle and val
ueless. Trees grow and prosper on
stony land and on land which Is not
arabic or capable Of farm cultivation.
Such land can grow trees and very
little else 1t should be kept at its
business Of growing trees. 1t should
be restocked with young trees and a
new forest started growing. But as
a rule this is not done. and the supply
of trees for lumber and for paper pulp
is disappearing on this continent and
no alertness or general purpose is
manifested to replace them.
This prodigal and short sighted pol
ICY or want of policy. is going to give
US serious trouble after while. We
will feel the pinch and find there is no
way to relieve it promptly. 1t takes
many years to grow forest Of, trees
that shall have commercial value.
Meanwhile valuable time Is being lost
while the denuded hills are permitted
to lie idle and barren.

Clan Trap.

President Wilson says that There is
only one choice as against peace. and
that is war;" and, therefore, he argues.
1.-The certain prospect of the success Of
the Republican party is that we shall
be drawn, in one form or another into
the embroilments of the European
war" He says further. "A very great
body of the supporters of that party
outspokenly declare that they want
war"
Making all due allowance for Mr..
Wilson's overpowering ambition for
reelection, and for the desperation
which is his as he perceives to how
great an extent the American people
disapprove of his administration, it is
still appalling to see the Chief Execu-
tive of the United States seeking to
further his political fortunes by such
which no one of his intelligence can
fail to appreciate are absolutely con-
Trajectory of the truth. Mr.. Wilson's
reference to "a very great body" of
Republicans being outspokenly for war
recalls the incident of the man who
remarked that he had "a wide ac-
quaintance in New Haven" whereupon
his friend replied, oh. l know. It's
Judge Taft"
If Mr.. Wilson knows of any such
great body" it is only a single indi-
vidual. and he probably would be hard
the American made product Here is
wants war. Furthermore, Mr.. Wilson
must know, if he is to be given credit
for any intelligence. that war is the
last thing which Gov. Hughes desires,
and that the assertion that his election
would result in involving this country
in the European war is the cheapest
kind of political clap-trap. clap-trap
unworthy Of even a third rate Demo-
cratic spell-binder.

ayers are trifle wary about assigning
Southern orators for Northern States.
The Southern accent Is believed to
have grated more than little upon the
ears of Maine, where so many South
ern spellbinders advocating Democracy
were looked upon as tangible evidence
of the Southern domination of the
party which is so offensive to the tax
paying North. So now the hunt is for
Northern orators for Northern States.
The only trouble is that the really
leading Democrats are all Southerners
and II only the small fry are to be put
on the stump the effect will not be so
good upon the audiences, who will
think they are being sighted.

SUGGESTIONS TO
SICK WOMEN
How Many Are Restored To
Health.

First.-Almost every operation in
our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect of
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements, pain
in the side, burning sensation in the
stomach, bearing down pains, nervous
ness, dizziness and sleeplessness.
SecOnd.-The medicine most success
full in relieving female ills is Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It
regulates and strengthens the organism;
It overcomes disease.
For forty years it has been making
women strong and well, relieving back
ache, nervousness, liberation and in
fiammation, weakness, displacements,
irregularity and periodic pains. 1t
has also proved invaluable in prepar-
ing for childbirth and the Change Of
Life.
Third.-The great number of unso-
licited testimonials on file at the Pink
ham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass, many
of which are from time to time published
by permission, are proof of the value Of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, in the treatment Of female ills.
Fourth.-Every ailing woman in the
United States is cordially invited to
write to the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine
Co. (confidentiaD, Lynn, Mass, for
special advice. tits free, will bring you
health and may save your life,

Los. Of shippina on tho Pacific.

Some echoes Of the seamen's bill.
signed by President Wilson:
1.-THE withdrawal of the foremost
American steamship facilities added to
the general dislocation of ocean carry
ing facilities and abnormal freight
rates. Freight rates became
almost prohibitive, particularly follow
ing the withdrawal of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Co.'S fleet and the transfer
of the large Great Northern steamer
Minnesota from the Pacific.
General Sammons, Shanghai, China.
THE decrease in imports can be
traced to a few items such as wheat
-four and machinery. These American
products have been driven out of the
local market by the high freight rates
-four has now joined American cotton
goods in the list of articles once COM
manding the market but now no longer
seen. 1t has been replaced by Tieh-
ling, Hardin, Changchun. Shanghai,
and Hankow flour."-Consul William
son. Dairen. China.
The increase of trade with the
United States is remarkable. but there
is every reason to believe that it
would have been greater but for the
rise in freights and the shortage of
steamers on the Pacific trade,"-Con-
sui Magelssen. Melbourne, Australia.
Since the Pacific mail steamers
vanished from the Pacific so many
markets have opened for Japan that
it's people cannot cope with the de-
mand."-North China Daily News.
Before the passage of the seamen's
bill, the United States controlled p per
cent of the ocean tonnage of the
Pacific, while Japan held 33 per cent.
Today the United States operates but
per cent of the tonnage, while Japan
controls IS per cent.

Roosevelt Scores Wilson

Once more Col Theodore Roosevelt
las caused CONSERVATION among the
Democratic managers by portraying In
accurate but merciless manner the ut
ter failure of the Wilson administra-
ton even to approximate true Amers
icanism in its conduct of the affairs of
the nation. Col. Roosevelt not only
charged, in his Battle Creek speech,
but proved. that in every important af-
fair with which he had had to deal,
President Wilson has been feeble. vac
illating, selfish. always the political OPP
portuhist, never the true, manly Am
erican.
II appeal to my fellow citizens that
they shall elect Mr.. Hughes and repu-
date Mr.. Wilson because only by so do
ing can they save America from that
faint Of gross selfishness and cowardice
which we owe to Mr.. Wilson's substi-

meaningless phrasemongering. Mr..

port entitled development of an
American Linen Industry" One of the
questions considered in the report is
that of convincing the American pub
lie that American made linen Is as
good as any other. Another question
suggested as worthy of careful con-
sideration Is that of restoring the Re-
publican protective rates of duty on
fax manufactures, thereby building up
this industry in this country and ac-
quainting the American public with
the American. made product. Here is
an industry that needs fostering. The
Democrats committed themselves to
protection of the dye industry. but laid
non protective rates. Are not the Re-
publicans better qualified to encourage
