Gull Now With Eye On Breeding
EI0cE

Poultrymen should not relax vigi-
lance for non-paying hens
Vigilance of the poultry owner in
wedding out productive hens
from his flock should not slack in
the fall, although the purpose for
which he is culling changes at that
time. July and August culling is
for the purpose of removing the
Stacker hens and thereby immediate
ly cutting down production costs for
the flock. Culling in September
and October is to select the best in
dividual hens so that they may be
reserved as future breeders.
"Culling should be practiced from
the time the chicks are hatched un-
til the birds are disposed Of" says
a recent bulletin, "Culling Poultry"
issued by the poultry husbandry de-
partment of the Ohio State Uni
versity. beginning in July the
flock should be examined once
month and the poorer hens removed.
Health, vigor, size, trueness to
standard type and color, as well as
heavy egg production, are points to
consider in late fall culling. Some
hens are able to stand the strain of
high egg production and maintain
good physical condition, while 9TH
ers lay themselves out The latter
are of no use in the breeding pen
and should be disposed of after they
have finished their laying season.
If anyone who keeps poultry
should need any assistance in Gull
ing his flock, he should feel free to
call on any of the agriculture teach
ers in the county, and they will
gladly lend their assistance.

Sunday School Lesson
By
DR.. Hugh T. Stevenson

| Jerusalem. When Peter preached the
| gospel at Pentecost, men from many
nations heard the good news. 1t took
persecution to force the mother
/ church in Jerusalem to send out mis-
| sionaries They had failed to grasp its
mission and message. Under the lead
ership of the Holy Spirit, the church
established in Antioch and made OF up
Gentiles realized the meaning of the
Masters orders and sent forth BarnabaS
and Paul.
The churches they organized realized
their duty to help forward the mission
airy activities. Paul tells the Corinthian
church of the generosity of the Mace
domains Dr. p. E. Burroughs has point
ed out the present condition of Chris
tan missions in Our Lord and Ours:
Missions must wait upon stewardship.
Mission zeal can never go beyond stew
ardship loyalty. Stewardship is the
handmaiden of missions. Mission move
ments halt because they have not been
supported by stewardship teaching and
practice. Giving, persistent and peren-
NAL giving must base itself upon stew
ardShip. If the Christian world would
produce a generation of givers, the
Christian world must first produce a
generation Of stewards. A supreme need
Of present-day Christianity is to set
stewardship in the center Of all mis-
sionary endeavor. Missions is. Of course,
conceived in the broad sense, as begin
ming in the support of ones own church
and the sending of the gospel message
through that church into all the world.
God was In Christ reconciling the
world unto Himself Christ is in the
believer on that same reconciling mis-
sion; for every believer the field is the
world" The church or Christian that
fails to be missionary is not true to
ChristS command. He has ordered us
to teach all nations. Let us be true to
Him and do His work and will IN the

Religious Questions
BY
Dr.. S. Parkes Cadmdn.
@. What is intended to be taught by

@. What is intended to be taught by
ST. Mark ii.2i-22?
A. BY the use of these two allegories
in st. Marks Gospel our Lord showed
that the religion proceeding from Him
could not be harmonized with pre-
existent rituals and practices. Hence
it had to create those methods which
best expressed its essential nature and
transmitted its redemptive genius to
mankind.
The new cloth of Christianity was
not intended for patchwork purposes,
but to furnish the children of Gods
kingdom with spiritual apparel pc
culiar to themselves In like fashion
it was impossible to convey the new
wine of the gospel in the Anticipated
vessels of former conventions.
Pressed out from the great vine,
which symbolized none other than
Christ and His sacrifice that wine was
worthy of those adaptations to human
development which would best quench
the thirst of seeking souls for the life
giving God. Would that many wor-
shippers of the ecclesiastical past might
recall these illuminating words of the
Masterl
@. Is it not your belief that the
miracles set forth In the Old Testament
were only an account of the traditions
of a very ignorant and primitive peo-
pie, and that these stories and legends
| were recorded by the different writers
| of the Old Testament as part of ma
tional and historical background?
A. Each miracle in the Old Testament
should be treated by itself and the
| evidence for its historicity carefully
weighed and considered. There is a
very remarkable absence of miracles in
the major and minor prophets, showing
that as the stream of revelation in
creased in strength and purity the
emphasis on the miraculous became less
significant.
The lives of Elijah and Elisha, on the
other hand, are adorned with quite a
number of spectacular happenings
which have no particular spiritual OF
moral significance. Apart from the
opening chapters Of Exodus and the
contents of the historical books, Israel's
glorious literature is singularly free from
physical marvels. There is no doubt
that ancient traditions centering around
great personalities were liable during
the flight of ages to assume a miracu-
lous complexion. The early periods OF
Biblical revelation gave more weight to
the appeal to the eye than to the appeal
to the mind or the spirit.
