Holy Spirit, we can conquer all that
is evil in ourselves.
This, then, is the hope of the
world, and the only hope. And what
a bloodless war it would be, and how
quickly the victory would be won.
Not one mans victory over another,
thus creating hatred, but combined
onslaught against and victory over
the deceiver and disturber of man
kind.
All men would rejoice together
over the outcome, would be mutual
friends, and peace, harmony and love
would prevail.
Is this worth trial? Let every
man who says yes, put on the whole
armour of God, and begin at once an
earnest, prayerful, courageous, cease
less contest for complete victory, and
God will bless us and the victory will
be ours, to His glory and honor for
ever.

DESTROY PEACH TREE BORER
Fine Crystals of Observation-Disclosures
SprnkIed Around Base of Trees
Is Efficient.

The horticulturists Of the United
States Department Of Agriculture
have found a new agent for the eradi-
cation of the destructive peach tree
borer which has done $6,00O,0O0 dam
age annually. The most effective
remedy known heretofore has been to
dig the larvae out Of the trunks of the
trees or to kill them with long sharp
wire. The new treatment consists of
sprinklirg crystals of para-dichloro-
benzene around the base of the trees
and covering slightly with earth. The
substance is highly volatile, readily
changing to a gas which is heavier
than air and settles down through the
soil. The gas is an effective destroyer
of the pest. The para-dichlOrobenzene
can be obtained at any drug store. A
pound is sufficient for eight or ten
trees and costs only about % cents.

April War Month for United States.
In American history every one OF
our important wars, with one eXcep-
ton, began in April. The exception
was the War of 1S12-and many his
torians regard that not as a separate
war but as a continuation of the War
of Independence. The War of 1872
was declared in June
The first Of our great wars, the
Revolutionary war, or War for indie
pendence, began with the fighting at
Lexington and Concord, Mass, April
10, 1873. War against Mexico was
declared April "a, 1916, and the Civil
war began with the firing of the first
gun against Fort Sumter, April IL,
1861.
War against Spain was declared
April a. 1898. The participation of
the United States in the World war
dates from April 6. 1917, when con-
gress declared war against Germany.

METHOD OF KILLING .PSYLLA
Most Satisfactory Spray Mixture Is
Combination of Soap, Tobacco

The best means of killing Psylla

period of warm weather during early

ture, from the standpoints of safety
to fruit and leaf buds and effective
ness against the insect, is three-fOurthS

Eggs about to hatch and newly
emerged nymphs succumb to an APP

By postponing the dormant treatment
for the San Jose scale until the bios
som cluster-buds are beginning to
separate at the tips, very effective
work can be done against the eggs.

The Hope of the World.

Editor Democrat: There is such
fearful unrest and commotion in
the world today that the question
naturally arises: What is to be the
outcome Of all this confusion and
strife? Will the boiling caldron
bring publication and salvation to
the troubled elements?
Will the people close their heads"
yea, and their hearts, and plunge
headlong into war and destruction,
and thus the march of civilization be
set back a thousand years? Or is
there still ground for hope that
righteousness and peace will long
prevail?
We frequently hear the signing
for leadership. would that some
great leader would arise in this
country or somewhere in the world,
who would, by his great wisdom and
proves, raise the people of all the
world to a higher plain of life, into a
state Of peace, happiness and pros
perity, such as has never yet been
known"
Would not such a man receive well
come plaudits of all suffering hui
manity? All! but why sigh for a
leader?
Did He not come to this sin-cursed
world nearly two thousand years
ago? Did He not meet satan, the
great enemy of mankind, the arch
deceiver and conquer him in every
engagement? And did He not also
give us directions and power to over
come the evil one?
Yes, and what a promise He gave
to the overcomer-thec onquerer!
(Rev. 3:2D He that overcometh,
| will give to him to sit down with
me in my throne, as l also overcame,
and sat down with my Father in his
throne" What a reward for heroism.
Who could ask for more glorious
one?
1t is said that men like to under
take something really worth while
that they want to be heroic. Well,
then, what an opportunity to become
heroes!
Solomon says: Prov. 16:32-"He
that ruleth his spirit is better than
he that taketh a city" Then let the
challenge go forth to every man who
claims to have spark of heroism in
his makeup, to begin upon himself,
and purge out all selfshness, greed,
avarice, false pride, unholy ambition
and all Sins-infractions of law
and 10! the whole world would be
conquered for Christ What a tri-
umph! We can not conquer the
spirits of other people: but by the
grace of God and the power of the
