39:-"But II
it be of God, ye cannot overthrow
it; lest haply ye be found even
to fight against God.
40:-"And to him they agreed and
when they had called the apostles,
and beaten them, they commanded
that they should not speak in the
name of Jesus, and let them go.
42:-"And daily in the temple, and
in every house, they ceased not
to teach and preach Jesus Christ"
These scriptures plainly tell us
that we should worship God daily
rather than Easter and Christmas
as many so-called Christians do. If
God be for US, who can be against
us, for we have read in these
scriptures that the man who fights
against you fights against God.
Won't you trust him, the Lord
Jesus Christ, today for salvation?
And daily in the temple and in
every house, this Is what we need
today-DAILY WORSHIP-in the
home; for instance, family altar,
thanks to be offered at the table,
Chrst's pictures to take the place
of the pictures on the wall of
the ships sailing, of battles in
progress.
People are trained to act and
think according to what they
see and hear. Let's be careful
what we let our children see and
what they hear, for the scripture
says, To-day is the day of saliva
tion, now is the accepted time"

calls for boosts in wartime food pro-
duction by turning out crops the
first three-quarters of 1913 that top
ped the same period of 1912 by 81
per cent in monetary value in spite
of an estimated $25,00O,000 drought
loss.
Results of production survey by
Joseph H. Blandford, chairman of
the Maryland U. S. Department of
Agriculture War Board, indicated a
vast increase in acreage under Gull
tivation, which, rather than in
creased prices, accounted for the
crop boost.
Maryland Crop Reporting Service
figures reveal that the gross cash
farm income from field and truck
crops, live stock and livestock prod
ucts from January to September of
1913, totaled $117,071,0 1000, as COM
pared with a cash value of $86, 123,-
000 during the same period of 1912.
Field and truck crops this year
were valued at $54,057, 900, as
against $4O,28O,OOO in 1912. Live
stock and live stock products from
