HAVE STRAWBERRIES IN SPRING
Iowa Can Produce Five Times the
Amount of Small Fruit Hereto
fore, Says Specialist

PLANT a patch Of strawberries.
says the agricultural extension small
fruit specialist Of Iowa State college
in starting a campaign for the greater
culture of small fruits in Iowa.
Since Iowa can take care Of about
five times as much small fruit as it
has in the last few years, increase in
production is being urged. Strawber-
res are the only small fruit crop that
will produce maximum crop the first
year after planting.
At the recent meeting of the Mid
west Horticultural society held in Des
Moines, a committee of ten men, COW
ering the middle west, was appointed
to boost the campaign.
Three rows one hundred feet long
of standard variety would furnish
enough berries to last the average
family the whole season. The ever
bearing varieties, which produce ber-
ries after the common varieties have
stopped, have many advocates.
Production is not being urged on a
commercial basis, except where there
are unusually good shipping facilities.
The main object of the campaign is
to have berry patch in every garden,
so that the fruit can be enjoyed by
more people than heretofore.

the meeting and this was evidenced
by the large number of members in
attendance. At no meeting OF the
lodge has there been more interest
shown and everyone was in high hopes
that 1919 would undoubtedly be one
of the best years for the local lodge.
All of the officers are new in their
positions except the SECRETARY! and
treasurer. Following the installation
c. H. Stark, on behalf of the breth-

been seemingly supernaturally pro-
Itected. We might instance the destruc-
ton Of the Spanish Armada; the
rescue of the brave Dutch under the
leadership of William of Orange; Wa
terloo for Napoleon; the triunphs of
the union forces at Gettysburg, Vicks-
burg, the Wilderness; Dewey's victory
at Manila bay, and hundreds of cases
wrong were about to triumph and then
met severe defeat. Not not wilfully
blind can fail to see the hand of God
in the history of the world.
Just now the best nations of the
world are rejoicing over the defeat of
the Huns and the crushing lessons
they must learn for their inhumani-
ties to suffering Europe where they
obtained foothold 1t can be ac-
counted for to be sure from the hu-
man side, but the defeat Of the Ger
mans at the first battle of the Marine,
and the escape of Paris from capture
in the early part of the war will ever
stand out as strong case of the in
tervention of God to preserve the
principles of the bible from perishing
from the earth, for time at least.
Just now the friends of the cause of
nation wide prohibition feel as if they
saw "The Egyptians dead on the sea
Shore" Those of GUS whose recollec-
lions can go back twenty-five years
will recall how little hope there was
then that forty and over states of the
union would vote for an amendment
to the feredal constitution prohibiting
the manufacture and sale of intoXicat-
ing liquors. Then the liquor traffic
seemed with its wealth, power, intiu-
ence, so strong that nothing could
defeat it. The great God has spoken
and in most wOnderous way caused
every legal support to the whisky
traffic to fall away and the cause of
morality and righteousness to triumph
gIoriously. The magnificent, wonder
full, superb words of the song of
Moses sung to his people as found in
the 18th chapter of Exodus rise al
most spontaneously to the heart and
lips of every true lover of his fellow
men, as most expressive of the |
thoughts which fill the soul when con-
sidering the overthrow of the liquor
traffic and it's awful attendant evils |
See how well the words of Moses fit
the present situation:
81 will sing unto the Lord for
He hath triumphed gloriously."
"In the greatness of thine ex-
cellency thou hast overthrow
them back which rose up against
thee
"Who is like unto thee, o Lord
who is like thee, glorious in holi-
ness, fearful in praises, doing
wonders"
l recommend a full reading of this
wonderful song of rejoicing. It's equal
does not exist in the writings of man
in all generations
The spirit of the Huns who threw
aside every precept of the Sermon on
the Mount in their attempt al world
domination, and that of the accursed
liquor traffic are one and the same.
Neither hesitated because of death,
sorrow, poverty, crime, Injustice to
neighbors, but with fierce tread tried
to override the rights of others for
love of gain, money, land, influence.

FIGHT THE FAMINE

Mr.. Hoover promised in October to
furnish food for 120,000,O00. We are
now confronted with the necessity of
feeding 1S0,O00,0O0 additional suffer
ers from the war These are friendly
people; the little allies, the neutrals,
the small nations now freed from the
Austrian yoke. They face anarchy
and revolution unless food is furnish
ed them. The world is not safe for
democracy as long as there is hun
ger, for hunger begets despair and
despair fosters boshevism.

The service which the stores Of
Denison offers to our people is an
achievement which is not always real

1t is linked up with a system of
world wide distribution, which has
been built up through years of effort
of the brightest business minds.

had no such command over the re-

SUNDAY SCHOOL NOTES
SIDE Lights on Next sundays
lesSor for Teachers and PuplIs
Edited by Charles x. Meyers.

Jan. rs. The Challenge of a Great
Deliverance. Exodus Is, lib.
We have for our lesson this week
another of the great events in the his
tory of the Children of Israel. This
Is second only to the great passover OF
which l spoke last week. All bible
students will recall the Hebrews were
in slavery to the Egyptians and that
deliverance was gained under the
leadership of Moses. Last week we
considered the last of the great
plaques which caused Pharaoh to con-
sent that the Hebrews should go. His
tory tells us that laden with the goods
of the Egyptians the Hebrews moved
out and to the eastward. They did
not take the most direct road to the
Promised Land. and their late mast
ers may have thought they were at a
loss to know which way to go. AL
though there had been complaint that
the Hebrews were menace to Egyp-
tian supremacy, yet when they were
gone there seemed very general de-
sire to have them back again.
The Egyptians decided to go out
with great army, capture the late
slaves and return them to captivity.
There was great terror among the He
brews when the Egyptian hosts were
seen coming in battle array. Histor-
ians tell us that the wanderers were
in terrible situation, for before them
was the deep Red Sea; on either side
high mountains, and in the rear the
Egyptians. AS is always the case
there were plenty of gloomy people
there easily discouraged, with little
faith in Moses and the leadership of
God. That God had taken them out
of captivity, was leading them by a
cloud by day, and pillar of fire by
night, did not convince them that He
could be trusted and would provide a
way of escape.
Moses, the leader, went to God
about the state of affairs There was
immediate assurance of help Note
the orders from God: Speak unto
the Children of Israel, that they go
forward" AS far as human power
could see this meant to walk right in
to the Red Sea and be drowned. The
leaders at least were full of faith and
ready to obey orders and forward the
great mass of humanity went. When
the people had done their part God
was ready to help them and the sea
opened and the Hebrews went
through. The Egyptians in their eag
erness to capture their prey, followed
after and were swallowed up, men,
horses. chariots, and soon in the Ian
guage of the bible, Israel saw the
Egyptians dead on the sea shore"
With this act of the preservation of
His people by God. the Egyptians and
all other nations about gave up trying
to capture or interfere with the prog
ress of the Hebrews.
Not alone bible history but secular,
gives many instances where people
who stood for the principles of the
religion of Jehovah and Jesus have

Cant Harvest To
Open Up Monday

First cantaloupes out of the Rocky
Monday of this week. The car was
headed for New York and it is quite
natural to expect good returns on
this shipment.
Fred G. Hilvert, western manager
for S. A. Gerard G. Co., states that
there will be shipments of pink meats
from this district about Monday, and
that by the latter part of next week
there will be several car loads on
the markets or on their way. The
damage by the two recent halls, ac-
cording to Mr.. Hilvert was about
fifty percent on 200 acres of melons
in this district. In the hail which
struck certain fields near Ordway
N. A. Bollacker had about 35 acres
damaged and was given a SO percent
adjustment. Hosler had twenty acres
damaged and got 80 percent adjust
ment Capt. Wharton had twenty
acres damaged. Rutherford Bros.
about twenty acres in two different
places. Bradley suffered consider
able damage, while some others were
more or less hit. The hail of last
Sunday evening in the vicinity west
of and near Crowley did some dam
age; one Jap losing quite heavily
In the two halls there were about
300 acru damaged to a considerable
extent.
Mr.. Hilvert estimates harvest of
about 500 cars this season, and that
$50 cars of this will be honey dews.
The market. he believes, will be good
as the supply has not been enough
to overload the early demands. Tur-
locks are now getting down to ths
end and yet the price is holding up.
The New Mexico melons are selling
high so far.

Disease is Killing
Numerous Horses

During the past ten days numer-
GUS horses have died in this vicinity
from the peculiar disease which rag
ed in western Kansas in 1912. The
veterinarians are handling the situa-
tion as best they can since there Is
yet no known cure or no known pre-
ventative. They have been in touch
with the state and government vet
erinariacs and hope to have the dis
ease checked If not entirely controll-
ed within a short time.
The disease affects the younger
animals and naturally the younger
ones are the best, therefore most of
the horses which have died so far
are the better ones.
Following is statement from the
Colorado Agricultural College bear
ing on this disease:
In speaking of the horse disease
now prevalent in this section of the
state Geo. II. Glover, of the Colorado
Agricultural College, says:
1t Is apparently the same affection
that appeared among horses of the
midwest in 1912, and was spoken OF
as the Kansas Horse Plague. The
disease has appeared sporadically
since that time and the extent of the
present outbreak is problematical. II
has been ascribed to forage poison
ing" and this was convenient
camouflage for the cause has not
been definitely determined.
An afflicted animal first becomes
dun and listless, refuses to eat, has
moderately high fever, staggers. and
in few hours becomes geunt and
emanciated. Some cases manifest OK
citement with blindness and tend
ency to press the head against fence
post or building. Indications of pa
ralysis of the throat and muscles OF
the face may appear before the ami
NAL goes down. After going down
there is delerium wrtn pounding of
{ the head on the ground. the tempera-
ture becomes subnormal and in fatal
/ cases death may be expected to take
( place in from two to five days. Thus
/ far fully half of the cases have been
saved by appropriate treatment.
/ Vendors of "cure-nll's" are already
/ in the field and expecting to reap the
usual harvest. The following Is OF
the utmost Importance in this con
nection and should be given wide
publicity:
L. There is no specific cure for
this disease: conditions must be met
as they appear in the natural pro-
gress OF the disease.
2. Beware of the man who prom
ises to protect your horses by vacciD-
alton. Nothing of the kind has been
found THAT win with certainty have
the least influence in preventing the
disease.
g. Do not try to give medicine
by "drench" for there is invariably
more or less paralysis of the throat
and the fluid will surely pass into the
lungs, inducing mechanical pneu-
monia.
4. II unable to secure the services
of a competent veterinarian the next
best thing is to take the very best
possible care of the animal. Good
nursing alone will save many OF
them.
