CHURCHES ARE FACING
A SERIOUS SITUATION

Much has been said about boys being Just reg

They won't write pieces for the papers protesting
against the way going In the churches and
they won't appeaer before ministerS' meetings ana

The churches facing a more serious situation
than most OF their leaders think.
For many years the churches Of this country gained
In membership average OF three and sixtenths per
cent per year During the first two Of the war
But year they gained only about seventenhs Of
per cent.
The Meshodists the Episcopalians and the Christina

Other churches Just barely held their own. and
those which did gain in membership hadn't much to
boast Of
There's encouraging feature about this whole
business While the churches have been steadily los(

greater intensity than before-at least In spirit
They have the necessity Of being q greater
power In human rcationshps-they have learned that
the big thing aheaed is to make real and vital
the spirit OF Jesus and substitute the spirit OF
operation for that OF competition.

GRANT ME NOT
BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE


o, grant me not too much success!
For I am OF that human race
Which needs the lashiDgs OF distress
Ere ever It will keep the pace.
O, puff me not with petty pride:
O, grant me not too much success!
Better for me that some deride
Than all should glorify and bless.
I ask for neither more nor less
Than just enough to feed my soul.
o, grant me not too much success,
Nor tempt me with the easy goal.
Yea, gods OF Fortune and Of Fate,
We who may ban as well as bless,
Now heed me. as I supplicate--
o. grant me not too much success!

has vaccinated whore it exists and also
a large number of the closest nei9t-

which the disease may be carried
that it is not safe to keep hogs un-
vaccinated within three or four
miles of an infected farm. Where

1918 Wheat For Seeding Next Crop

1918 Wheat For Seeding Next Drop?
In some localities the 1919 crop of
wheat is so badly damaged by wheat
scab and other fungi that it will hard
ly be fit for seed That is, there is SO
much shriveled, mouldy and damaged
wheat in the crop that It would be
difficult to clean it thoroughly enough
to provide good seed wheat for next
year. Farmers who have had the fore
sight or good fortune TO reserve suf-
ficient of their 1918 crop to provide
for their seed requirements in 1890
will do we'll to hold enough for Their
seed. One year old seed is perfectly
good if it has been kept in a dry bin.
H. p. Killing, county agent of Je--
auld county has been urging his co
operators to hold enough of the 1923
crop for seed where they still have
some on hand, and we believe his ex
ample should be followed in other
counties where the scab epidemic has
been severe.

Important Dairy Exhibit at State Fai

The advantages derived from cow
testing and cooperative breeding as
sociations will De an important fea-
ture of the dairy exhibit at the State
fair this year. Tie Department of
dairy husbandrY at the State college
has been gathering data on these sut-
jects and will snow graphically how
the farmers by means of cooperation
and rigid selection can improve t'ic,r
stock and thus increase their profits.
illustrations of tie work carried on
all over the United States will be ex-
hibited. When our neighboring states
have organizations that raise the pro-
duction and praGts of their dairy
herds, South Dakota farmers should
be glad to profit by the example of
nsighboring states that have raised
the production and profit from their
dairy herds thru such organizations.
