THE CALL OF THE CHURCH.

The church leads the way in all
moral and religious enterprises.
The country where the church
has not been is heathen--uncivi-
lized.
All other forces combined out
side of the church cannot change
heather nation into a Christian
nation.
The church with the gospel of
Jesus is power that is human and
divine, hence the reason for results.
Hobson says that less than two
per cent. of the men of America go
through college, yet from this two
per cent. the nation draws 1900 of
the 10000 leaders in all the walks
OF life.
Seventy-five per cent. of the 7,219
college graduates who have become
distinguished men graduated from
Christian schools and only is 81
per cent. were graduated from state
universities and municipal insti-
tutions, and yet twice as many stu
dents attended them.
Since the church through its
Christian schools is furnishing
three-fotrths of the leaders in the
reputable avenues of life, does it
not appeal to you that there ought
to be more emphasis upon the
church in what It can do for peo-
pie?
The church ought to begin its
work at the birth of the individual
and finish at the grave-she. ought
to have as much love and concern
for her subject as the most devoted.
wise and loving mother.
When will such condition pre-
vail? It may never prevail but
every one knows that the interest
of the church can be greatly i'm.
proved.
The time to begin is now. Make
of your child a superior religious
character to yourself no matter
how pious you may be.
The church furnishes more to
you for the time and money spent
than any other or all other institu-
tions combined.
II you are in doubt about these
statements, investigate for your
self and you will be convinced.

are present, however, it may be ad-
visable to go over the ground with a
disk harrow, plOw shallow and disk
again.
If wheat is to follow cotton, the
stalks should be plOwed under as soon
as picking can be finished and the
plowing should be deep enough to bury
the stalks cOmpletely-that by way of
destroying the boil weevil. Disking or
narrowing is not advisable, as 1t un-
earths the buried stalks. The land
should be firmed with roller and the
wheat sOwn with disk drill.
Late Flowing Should Be Shallow.
There are said to be exceptions to all
general rules, and there may be one or
two exceptions to this rule of early
plOwing for wheat. II 1t rains a great
deal during July and early August, ear
ly plOwlng can not be done. But for
tunately, the exception appears to
come in just there. Early plowing is
not so essential In wet seasons. But 1t
may be well to observe this caution:
If you have to plow late, plOw shallow
where there Is danger Of winter killing.
Shallow plOwing makes the firming of
the seed bed an easier matter and Is a
measure Of insurance against winter
killing.
