FOR CHURCH UNITY

LOh N1lONNI1 ON11
To the Editor of journal:
| have read several fine pieces in the
"Open Forum" lately. One on the
churches and preaching ON the streets.
1t seems the churches or the church peo-
pie as rule are asleep to their duty;
they have to do in this life.
Things are too much like a prayer l
have heard:
" God bless me and my wife.
My son John and his wife
Us four and no more.'
Stop and think, we should all be bro
theirs and sisters in Christ.
Christ prayed the longest prEser we
have any record Of. (John II ch.)
"That they or we all may be one as
thou Father art in me and l in thee.
"That they also may be one in us. 4"
Well, just read the chapter How can
we all be one when we all teach differ.

There is only one doctrine that will
save us, Matt 7 eh;2S:29 VS..
There are many doctrines. Matt Is

And when we pray do we not saw:
"Our Father which art in heaven -
Is he not "Our Father when we obey
his word and we become his children
Then we must be brothers and sisters in
Christ. One large family Ny, what
great good we people could do if we

Itching and Burning Erup-
tions Torture Victims.

Only those who are afflicted with
Eczema, letter, Erysipelas boils and
similar so-ealled skin diseases can ap-
preeiate the real terrifying discomfort
that comes from these disorders.
The constant plea Of those afflicted
is the oft-repeated question, "How
can I find relief from this constant
torturel" Not palliative, temporary
relief that causes the terrible itching
to abate for awhile, but real genuine
relief that shakes of the Shaekles Of
the disease and restores the skin to
its former healthy condition.
And temporary relief is the most
that can be expected from local treat
ment, such as ointments, salves, To-
tions, etc., which is one reason why
these diseases seem to hold on with
such teuaeity. 1t is not because they
are ineurable, but because they are
improperly treated, that they appear
to be so stubborn and 50 difficult to
cure.
The real cause Of the disease is a
germ in the blood, which multiplies
BY the million, and sets up an irrita.
tion in some tender location Of the
delicate skin.
You must locate the headquarters
Of the disease germs, and cut off
their base Of supplies. The blood is

WHAT KATY REALLY DID.

At last we know what Katy did. False fleeing per-
jured Katy! Of whom Dr. Holmes complained years ago,
"Thou sayest undsputed thing in such solemn wayP
All these years she has borne the reputation of song
stress, when matter of fact all she did was to rub
her wings together and make pale green noise.
The movie camera operated by Dr. Raymond Ditmars,
of the New York zoO responsible for proving how false
ly Katy posed as Mary queen of garden song Patiently
he watched and waited set for hours at time to
make the sow-moving film which tells the secret.
This is only Of the bits of nature lore which his
camera has betrayed from faithful record of the antics
of cobra to the slow development of frogs and
toads from egg to maturity.
There is fascination as well as education in these
illustrations straight from the great storybook of
ture whose power for those who will look and sten will

THE LEAGUE TO ENFORCE PEACE.

An interesting sidelight on the League of Nations
controversy found in statement issued by the League
to Enforce Peace of which former President Taft has
long been president and active leader.
1t had been reported that there considerable dis
satisfaction and rebellion in the organization owing
Mr. Tafts having given his general approval President
Wilson's draft of a constitution In answer to this the
league March Is declared that since announced its
endorsement of the Paris pah only eight members had
resigned out of total of 100000 and not one OF the
Leagues 1900 volunteer speakers and 5000 cergymen all
the country had withdrawn his pledge to work under
the Leagues direction. The statement adds:
"r Tafts attitude which is substantially that of the
League is that he would accept the Paris covenant it
stands and thank God for it, that it does not however
fully meet his ideals not being strong in respects
the plan have been advocating; that he would like
to amendments that would strengthen it, and thinks
it wise to make changes that viii make still clear the
meaning which understand it to carry. He is also
favorable to making changes that will placate opinion
especially in the direction of definite acceptance of the
Monroe Doctrine, which understand is already the
basis of the instrument"
1t may be added that this also represents the attitude
of large numbers of people who have had anything
to do with Mr.. Taft's League.

little attention is given to trimming
the roots before the plants are set out.
In filling the holes after the trees
are placed in position care should be
taken to work finely pulverized fertile
soil among the roots. This can be
done with the fingers better than in
almost any other way. After few
shovelfuls of soil have been placed
about the roots. it helps if the tree is
slightly raised and lowered once or
twice. This will tend to work the fine
soil in among the roots. AS the filling

some other effective method. OF all
the operations connected with planting,
the firming of the soil about the roots
is perhaps the most important, and it
should be done with great thorough
ness. Finally, the holes should be fill
ed even with the surface.

Immediately following 1t, the branches
of fruit trees should be cut back with
a view to- giving desirable form to
the top as it develops.
In planting raspberries, blackber-
ries, currants, and gooseberries, the
tops should be cut back to height of
about 6. inches. If currants and goose
berries have particularly strong root
systems, the tops are sometimes left
10 to II inches high.

Maintenance Expenses.
AS a rule, the annual maintenance
expenses range from 5 to 10 per cent
of the initial cost, being in the sim
pier buildings chiefly for light and
heat and in the larger ones inclusive
of salaries of secretaries, physical d.
rectors, caretakers and Librarians.
Funds to maintain the organizations
are secured through membership dues,
moving pictures, bowling, billiards,
and similar sources Of revenue. Ac-
cording to the report of the govern
ment specialists, 80 Of the community
buildings now in use are owned, con-

Money is secured by issuing stock, as
well as by general contribution. this

receipts from sales, games and enter

the building as security. the loan being
repaid later when sufficient funds ac-
cumulate for such purpose.

Twenty-Five of the clubs studied are

PLAN OUTLINED FOR
PLANTING ORCHARDS
Soil Where Trees Are to Be Plant
ed Should Be Prepared.
important to Take Precautions to Pre-
vent Roots of Trees From Becom-
inq Dry-Where Planting Is
Delayed "Heel In"

| (Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricrlture)
If the prospective orchardist pre-
pares the soil where his trees are to
stand as thoroughly as he does his
garden before planting vegetables, the
growth of his trees will amply repay
him. If the orchard site is in sod, IT
is advisable to cultivate it during one
season, at least, after the sod Is plowed
under, in order that the grass roots
may decay before the fruit trees are
planted. If the trees are to be planted
In yard where the owner desires to
retain his lawn, the soil over an area
of several feet where the tree is to
stand should be spaded thoroughly.
This plan, however. is compromise
between lawn and fruit garden,
and the results are not likely to be so
satisfactory as where the ground is
thoroughly cultivated.
Every possible precaution should be
taken from the time the trees and 9th
er plants are taken from the nursery
until they are planted to prevent the
roots from becoming dry. If the plants
are to be set at once on being received,
the roots may be covered with wet
gunny sacks, an old blanket, or some
other material that has been thorough
ly moistened.' until they are ready to
be put into the ground.
If it is necessary to delay planting
for considerable time, the trees
should be "heeled in" This Is done
by untying the bundle of plants, loosen
ing and separating the roots and plac-
ing the plants in a trench and packing
the soil about the roots to prevent
drying.
The trees should stand an inch or
two deeper when planted than they
stood in the nursery. and the holes
should be broad enough to receive the
roots without bending them from their
natural positions. This applies also to
blackberry, currant, and
,ther small-fruit plants with the excep-
