HOLY CITY AS IT is TODAY
Redeemed but Waiting to Be Clothed
In Raiment That Is but Her
Just Due.

It is well, as we leave. the gentle

filled with serene Joy, writes William
D. McCracken in Asia magazine. We
regard the fearfully tried city with
something Of the compassion that the
Master felt for 1t. Seventeen times
destroyed-bitterly -anxiously
sought-hOw desperate a history
since Nebuchadnezzar captured il
more than twenty-five centuries ago
And only the other day, it seems, at
Christmas time in 1917, Jerusalem
was captured again, this time by its
friends, the British after an agree.
ment with the Turks that the city it
self should not be bOmbarded. There
was some fighting on the Mount Of
Olives, and accommodating airplanes
dropped bomb or two in and about
the Garden of Gethsemane. But Jeru.
salem had been captured for thsHlast
time, and the last offensive was de.
void of evil.
Redeemed today, but in her naked.
ness, Jerusalem waits to be clothed.
She has as yet no grace, no covering
for her ugly wounds. Some day her
sides will glisten with the brightness
of heavenly radiance; she will be
washed and anointed like a bride
waiting for the bridegroom.

His Reputation for Patience.

Filled with pride, Mr.. and Mrs.

their new 'mOtorcar. Mrs. Brown

steering to hope about anything.
Alackl Before they reached the
end of the road the car stopped,
and stayed that way with mule
like persistency. Mr.. Brown tried
every lever and handle in turn. Then
he got down from his seat and began
to investigate.
Presently he lay down and crawled
underneath the car until only his
number mines were left visible. In a
few moments the car gave a sudden
jolt and then stopped, and a terrible
flow of language, more fOrcible than
polite, became audible.
"Oh, john" exclaimed the wife, in
Mortified tones, "don't swear sol Have
patience, like Job did"
"Job," shrieked Mr.. Brown, in a
stifled voice. sob would have sworn,

beastly car with his mustache caught

MOST VALUABLE SHEEP FEED
Rye Stands at Head Of Cereals in
Protein Content, but Lacking in
Carbohydrates.

whether fed as a grain ration, pas
tured, or cut and fed for hay, rye
holds a high place for feeding preg-
nant ewes at weaving time. In it's
chemical analysis, rye stands at the
head of the cereals in protein content,
but is somewhat lower in carbOhy-
drates than wheat or corn.
This suggests two things In regard
to its feeding value: First, to feed in
combination with other things lack
ing in protein but rich in fat-form-
ing elements, like corn and wheat.
Second, as a feed for young animals
in which high development of bone
and muscle is required. For either
purpose it is highly satisfactory. When
sheep are wintered largely on fodder,
timothy hay, or other rOughage, the
rye partly makes up for the lack OF
protein.

CHEAP PRODUCTION OF PORK
one Of the Best Ways Is Use of Stub,
BILE Fields After Grain Has Been

One Of the cheapest ways of pro-

fields after the grain has been cut in
the fall. In spite of all that can be
done there is more OF less grain scat
