demic was the deadliest disease out
break that has afflicted the modern
world, and up to the present its cause
has been largely mystery.
All the civilized countries of the world
have been struggling with the disease and
as yet have no satisfactory means of deal

it spreads with great rapidity and nobody
is able to protect himself against 1t with
certainty.
What causes the spread of influenza?
Science has just discovered that the COM

zines pulling almost hundred cars across the continent at the rate of 50 miles an hour, the big steamers as they blow the waters of the great deep, the X-ray with the great search light of electricity that penetrates the human being until you can de- tect anything that has gone wrong in the body; the wireless telephone as she fits the messages across the world at lightning speed, with all the modern inventions, we wonder if man has exhausted all his wisdom and the old tree has depleted all its fertile soil, and will begin to wither away, or will we fertilize and culti- vate it until its branches extend all over the world and all nations find protection under the shadow of its boughs.

SPRING OATS FOR EARLY
 FEED.
 By J. W. SARGENT, County Agent.


 Right at the present many Pulaski county farmers are facing new cropping year without a sufficient amount of feed to tide them over. A crop of oats maturing late in May or June is always of considerable help in tiding through June and July to the laying-by season. Oats ought to be sown here in the fall, but as the fall acreage is small, we ought to do the next best thing, SOW spring oats.
 Spring oats will not produce a heavy crop of grain, except in ex- ceptional years, but they may be cut in the dough stage and make splen- did hay. The Burt is one of the best varieties for spring sowing. If you can't get the Burt, use sixty-day, Hundred Bushel or red oats. Sow at the rate of two bushels per acre.
 For spring oats use good land that is fairly free from trash. Dou- ble disc the land if possible. This is better than turning at this time of year. A grain drill should be used in seeding, but if this is not to be had, broadcast them.
 Look into your feed supply. If you do not have plenty with which to finish this crop. consider the oat crop, and SOW a sufficient acreage during the first good weather after the middle of February to tide you over. After this crop has been har- vested there is still time to grow a splendid hay crop and if a a.legume IS used, you will not only get two crops off the land this year, but you can make the land richer at the same time.

 GREETING.
 It is with a feeling of joy and a sense of profound gratitude that I greet the members and friends of the Pulaski Heights Methodist church Words are inadequate to express how very much the pastor and his family appreciate the kindly gracious, helpful manner in which the loyal, devoted membership of this church has welcomed Us. The work of the new year has begun with many tokens of sincere cooperation. The outlook is radiant. Your great love has already warmed our hearts and cheered our spirits. Your pray CTS will inspire our faith and strengthen our hands. l am impress ed with the fact that Methodism has q great task to perform in this sec- ton of our capital city. If our choice membership and the many friends of this community will clasp hands in united endeayor, victory will crown our efforts. Let us never allow a seat to be vacant at any of our serv- ices. Let us overlook the trivialities of life and center our thought and our effort upon the major things of character and purpose. Keep the pastor informed regarding all who are sick, in sorrow, and are newcom- CTS. May the blessing of Our Fath- CT" abide upon your precious lives in abundance.
