CHURCH TO OBSERVE
CENTENARY DAY.

One of the most interesting fea-
lures of the Louisville conference of
the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, which convenes September 25
at jacksonville, Kentucky, will be the
Centenary Day" which will be OBJ
served September 26th. Bishop Col
Inns Denny, of Richmond, Virginia,
will preside.
The subjects to be discussed on
Centenary Day will be World Re-
construction After the War;" Gods
Call to the Church in a Worlds Cri-
SIS" "The Church's opportunity to
Get Out of Littleness Into Bigness. 4"
Bishop Denny will be one of the
principal speakers. A leading lay
man will discuss Can We Put 1t
Over?" and a stereopticon lecture
will show the needs of the mission
fields.
This years annual conference ses-
sion promises to be one of the most
interesting and important in the his
tory of the organization, and while
the Centenary movement is already
well known to the members of the
conference, great interest will be
aroused by the coming of these
specialists who are highly trained in
missionary activities.
The Centenary movement includes
a world program based on a careful
survey of need and opportunity, and
a vigorous campaign will be made to
release the prayer power of the
church by enrolling tens of thousands
in the Fellowship of Intercession"
and training them as prayer helpers.
The program also includes a ste
wardship Drive" to secure enroll
ment of millions of Methodists who
will acknowledge their stewardship
by the payment of the 1.-THE.
During the next five years of the
Centenary celebration there will be
an earnest appeal made for life serv-
ice, and strenuous efforts will be
made to recruit a large number of
new workers for the ministry, home
and foreign missions, and for service
in the local church.
In the next five years, the Southern
Methodists expect to raise $35,00O,-
600 to be applied to war work, home
and foreign missions and church ex-
tension.

FARMS FOR SOLDIERS.

Secretary Lane is acting betimes

Preliminary work has begun on a
small appropriation, and il is now
proposed to go into the scheme on
an adequate scale, so that the boys
returning from France may be en-
abled to acquire their homes at a
minimum of delay and expense. The
legislation already enacted in British
colonies and in the United Kingdom
as well as in France shows that the
allied nations are thoughtfully ar
ranging for the welfare of their de-
tenders.

Glover Seed Outlook.

Glover Seed Outlook.
Lexington, KY, Sept. IL, 1918.
According to figures obtained by
survey up to Aug. 20, 1918, the clover
seed outlook on medium, mammoth,
alsike and white clover seed was con-
siderably poorer than last year. In
the north-central clover producing
area, compromising Michigan, Wis
consin and Minnesota the acreage and
yield per acre appeared to be con-
siderably below the normal, largely
because of winter killing. In Ohio, In
diana and Illinois a larger acreage
and better yield than last year are an
tIcipated, but even in those states the
acreage and yield per acre respective
ly are estimated to be about 20 per
cent and 5 per cent less than normal
In other less important clover seed
producing states there is nearly as
great a reduction in acreage and yield
from the normal as in Michigan, Wis
consin and Minnesota mostly because
of drought and ravages of grasshOp-
pers. Wisconsin acreage. is about 65
per cent and 35 per cent of the nor
NAL or last years acreage, and the
yield per acre is nearly normal.
Very little mammoth and alsike
clover seed had commenced to move
the third week in August. and har-
vesting of medium red clover seed
had not started except in isolated
cases. Importations of red and alsike
were about 100000 lbs less for the
II months ending July l, 1918, than
for the previous year. The outlook
therefore, is for higher prices the
coming year.
Alfalfa Seed.
Due to drought, high prices of hay,
increased small grain acreage and
grasshopper damage, alfalfa seed
acreage is reported as 65-75 per cent
of 1917 acreage. and the yield per
acre is approximately so per cent of
last years yield Rains subsequent to
Aug. 20, will doubtless cause great
er acreage to be harvested for seed
providing a greater profit will accrue
from a seed crop than from a hay
crop. Very few sections report any
movement of alfalfa seed.
Irish Potatoes.

continued a few days. after which
improvement occurred and values re-
covered. AT the close of seven day

THE MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal sub
stances are al their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
Dntact with the medicine is sterilized
nd as a final precaution in cleanliness
