The Cause of the Bible Society
is THE GREATEST CAUSE
IN ALL THE WORLD

Shanghi, China. ordered two million
five hundred thousand Primers of the
DZmoo for free distribution among his
people (and this booklet is composed
mostly OF short portions OF the four
Gospels OF the New Testament). The
greatest change that has ever come
into the life Of nation will come to
China In the next ten years. Thank
God for what He Is doing for China.
Twenty one million families live in
our Countrywide United States. II
has been stated that one third OF
these, that Is seven million families,
have no Bible In their homes. II is
also estimated that to-day there are
being raised twelve million children
who do not receive any religious in
struction whatsoever. No foundation
is being laid In the lives Of the
present rising generation upon which
to build character no proper concep-
ton OF right or wrong as taught by
the Word Of God. very little regard
for the laws of our country, almost
no respect for those who are placed
in authority over us. The tremendous
cost OF living is largely due to the
away from the Bible.
The question arises: Why are not
all the families in our country sup
piled with Bible, and why are not
all the children who are able to read
supplied with a New Testament?
Will 1t be possible for us as a nation
to stand firm and hold together as a
nation III we raise generations that
are able to read, but fail to plant in
their lives q consciousness OF God, a
true conception of right and wrong as
taught in the Sacred Scriptures and a
sincere respect for our government
and for those who are set in author
ity over US. Bible distribution now
over our entire nation for families
who have none and each child going
to school New Testament. This is
OF tremendous Importance for our
existence as a nation In the very
next generation. The great need for
our own nation and for the nations Of
the world is the organization OF new
Bible Societies to come forth to help
produce and circulate the authorized
translation OF the Sacred Scriptures.
Each church. religious Society, etc,
generally speaking has its narrow
limits around the work II carries on
The Northern Bible Society gives the
Sacred Scriptures with that one
Thought in mind,--to promote the
Kingdom OF Jesus Christ In the hearts
and lives Of the people OF our nation
and In other nations as far as we can
reach. II is Bible distributing
society.
To place money into Bibles and
New Testaments is the best invest
ment that any one can make. God
tells us In His Word that zone soul is
worth more than the whole world.

II ! we're to work all my life time and

into Bibles and Testaments and get
these into the hands Of people who
will read them, and II only one soul
was won for Christ by all the labor
of my life time. my investment for my

IL / had purchased and owned the
entire world and all that is in it,
II pays to distribute the Word Of
God. In South America a Spaniard
was given new Testament. He took
II with him into his home community
in the interior of that continent. He
read II and soon a great change came
over him, even his neighbors noticed
IL. He had been wicked and cruel,
now he was kind and loving. They
asked him about the change that had
come into his life, he held UP the New
Testament and said, this Book
changed my life" They asked for the
privilege Of reading the wonderful
story and their lives were changed.
An entire community led to Christ
through one Book. the New Tesla
ment. He who gave the money to
purchase this Testament made a good
investment.
This wonderful manifestation OF the
power OF the Sacred Scriptures as
above stated is also true in.the case
Of Chinese coolie, who had been
given a New Testament in the last
war He took II with him into the
north of China into his home com

USEFUL INFORMATION

prepared by the United states Department
Of AETieultureD
Exhibits OF improved livestock and
poultry at comfy and state fairs this
year promise to be unusually interest
Ing, according TO information received
by the United States Department OF
Agriculture from many sources. In
practically all parts Of the country ex-
cellent livestock exhibits are TO be at
trnctive features OF fairs. The atten-
tIon which breeders and farmers have
been giving to good livestock, combined
with good feed and care, have resulted
In some exceptionally well-bred and
well-fitted animals
In encouraging farmers to take ad-
vantage OF the opportunities which
fairs and livestock exhibits give for
observing improved livestock and poul-
/ try the Department OF Agriculture
places emphasis on the following
points: Livestock displays afford an
opportunity TO study breeds and types
and TO see large number OF good ami
mails. In the case Of meat animals the
size, conformation, and uniformity are
worthy OF special study In view Of In
creasing tendency to raise purebred
and high grade stock as market AMI
mails as well as for breeding.
Farmers attending livestock displays
obtain useful information by meeting
others who are Interested In superior
breeding and feeding methods. Besides
the ideas exchanged and Information
gained, new enthusiasm for the work
Ia common result. Animals and poul-
try may be purchased at most fairs,
though as rule II Is more satisfactory
for a farmer to purchase animals at
the home Of the breeder than TO buy
fitted animals at fairs. Animals that
have been prepared for exhibition usu.
ally are priced higher than untitled
ones Of similar quality and breeding.

MEANING or THE WORD VEAL
Departments Of Agriculture Frequent.
~ Called Upon to Decide Be.
tween Veal and Beet.

There seems to be marked yarla.
tion Of opinion as to what Is meant
by the word veal Ordinarily, when
one hears the word uttered, he thinks
Of the carcass or meat Of a young
bovine. In most cases this concep.
tion OF the meaning Of the word veal
Is sufficient and Il can be dismissed
from the mind without further con.
sideration; but, when one Is called
upon 10 state just what constitutes
veal, there may be some difficulty ex.
perienced In determining when a DO.
vine carcass Is or Is not TO be re
garded as veal.
Departments OF agriculture are
sometimes called upon to decide
whether or not q rather heavy car.
cass should be classified as veal or
beef and the decision conforms 20 the
conclusion OF authorities ON the sub.
ject, which Is as follows;
Calf enrcasses weighing less than
800 pounds. with comparatively light
eolored. fine grained flesh, are elassi
Ned as veal.

ood Troubles

wv
 The food troubAs in Germany are largely the result of imperfect dis Itribution. There is food in Ger many, but the economic crisis and the unwillingness of dealers to sell it for paper slnonss which deseends in value by leaps and bounds are holding the food out of the market. Food riots in cities and threats of conhscation by od pmunists have dis couraged the fafKlers and market gardeners from carrying their pro ducts to centers liable to disorder
 It is the old problem of the city against the country, the peasant against the industrial laborer. The farmers are in better condition i'll Germany than any other class, and they are holding their products for payment in something more stable than paper marks. They are engag- ing barter and exchange, as is com mon now in Russia. tDealers are par ticularly unwilling to let go of any products which are imported, as they cannot raise sufficient gold to replace them. Unless fhey are paid in gold or it's equivalent wholesalers and re tailers alike prefer to hold their rice and coffee and othas staple food pro ducts which are imported.
 Potatoes important
 But Germany is accustomed to go- ing without real coffee. Even the small vegetable gardeners about Der lin nearly all raise a small patch of rye, which is roasted and made into coffee substitute for the family which must save every possible mark. It is potatoes which, after bread, are the most important article of diet with the average German family The lateness of the season and the excessive rainfall have contributed to the potato shortage which Is be coming very acute and raising much disturbance.
 Women who cannot buy potatoes in lthe markets are in despair. That represents a loss of the foundation Of the average German familys meal Meat prices have long been pronibi- tive for families in modest cireum- stances. But until recently potatoes were within reach. Butter, butter I substitutes and all sorts of fats are also extremely scarce in the public markets and are held at a price De- yond most purses. But practically all sorts of foodstuffs are availaDle in Germany if the purchaser Is will ing to meet the terms of the dealer and there is adequate transportation to handle them Distribution is un- satisfactory because of the crash Tn l the currency and threatened poiiti- cal troubles

The mysterious soft effect of the cotton under the metallic simmer of the silver defies the average shopper to tell what it is and the effect is bewilderingly beautiful. The metal is pressed on the cotton after the weaving in way to make the metal stand out in a glittering glory that is emphasized by the softness of the cotton.
 The new lace comes in gol6 and silver pressed on blue, green, yell low, and orchid shades of cotton. Any number of combinations are possible and will be worked out as the popularity of the new fabric is established.
