ing up to a Sunday School Decision
Day or other equivalent evangells-
;c crcort."
Since all denominations are
agreed in their desire to have eacn
Sunday School pupil led to accept
Christ and enter upon the Christian
life, and since the plan of the Com
mittee does not prescribe any
special method but simply urges
each teacher to carry out the
evangelistic plans of his own de-
nomination, the State Sunday
School Association readily secured
the cooperation dealers in all de-
nominations on this Evangelism
Committee. The evangelistic meet
ings will be held by the State Asso-
citation, but their entire effort will
be devoted to enlisting the teachers
in support of the evangelistic pro-
gram and plans of their own church
and Sunday School.

JUST A WORD ABOUT
SELECTING A FARM

The wise selection Of a farm is
vital to the success and satisfaction
of farm life. Choosing farm often
means choosing place in which to
live and work for a life time. 1t is
important, of course, to decide
wisely in buying for investment,
but in making a selection for a
home it is of double Importance that
one consider the various features
that may have a decisive bearing on
the farm business or that may affect
the home life, and not only the pres
ent but for the future.
If you happen to be a person who
is looking around for a farm, for
home that will be permanent
abiding place for your family as it
is and as it may be in years to come,
YOU could come to no better county
in this state or in any other as for
that, than here in Abbeville county.
Here are to be found some as fine
lands as the county affords and the
best people that have ever trodden
Gods green footstool. You have
only to come here and look around
to be convinced of this statement.

became convinced that their main fanit
was not that they did not act on the bowels;
but that their action was too violent ana
drastic and upset the system OF the user;
which was due to the fact that they were
not thorough enough in their action, some
simply acting on the upper or small lh.Es-

almost invariably produced a haoit re-

RUSK COUNTY FARMER
TELLS EXPERIENCES

George vanderloop is the first man
to respond TO our invitation of last
week for farmers to give their expert
ences, successes and failures. Mr.. Van
derloop writes a very entertaining and
instructive letter.
Mr. Vanderloop lives three miles
east and one mile south of Ladysmith,
near the Grow Cooperative cheese fac
tory. He has pure bred Chester
White SOW that raised 81 pigs in three
filters. He sold Is head when under
three months old for S231.00. He has
{ of the sow pigs left that are bred and
valued at $3.50. This sow has proven
herself to be regular pork factory.
Mr.. Vanderloop had peculiar ex-
perience few weeks ago when he
filled his silO with corn fodder. The
fodder was frozen. and had snow and
frost on it. The weather was cold and
it refused to heat With a rope. q pull
ley. and a five-gallOn can he pulled up
about 200 gallons Of boiling hot water
that was heated with feed cooker,
and poured it all into Il hole he dug in
the center of the silage. Then he filled
the hole up with the cut fodder. and
tamped it tight. Four days later it
started to steam and began TO farment
with the result that he now has a silo
full of perfectly good silage.
Mr.. Vanderloop reads the farm news
in the News Budget every week with
pleasure, and says one item that he
took particular notice of was when the
man at Flambeau bought the manure
pile. and claimed the seller threw III
the farm. Mr.. Vanderloop makes a
practice of hauling manure from his
barns direct to the field every day so
his land gets the full benefit of it. Mr..
VanderlOOp owns 60 acres of land, has
% acres under the pillow, and the bal
ance is nearly all in tame pasture. He
has a small but comfortable set Of
buildings. and is planning on charging
his barn to accommodate ten more head
of cattle. He will build another silO
to take care of the fodder proposition.
As he is near the cheese factory. he is
on the right track to stay with the
dairy COWS. a few pigs like he has.
in connection with the dairy. are good
revenue producers The News-Budget
thanks Mr.. Vanderloop for this in
structive letter and will look for sim
liar letters every week
