When Jezebel was dreadfully

like Obadiah, even In the kings PAL
ace. Foremost Of these heroes of
faith was Elijah, the Tishbite.
Confronting King Ahab and de-
nouncing his apostasy, Elijah
warned that as q punishment Of
recreant Israel there would be no
rainfall for three years.
After three years of national
suffering, Elijah appeared again to
challenge him to summon the peo-
pie, and the four hundred and fifty
priests Of Baal, and the four hun
dred priests of the Asherah, to a
test OF power on Mount Carmel.
Elijah challenged the priests of
Baal to q duel. Each would build
an altar, and the God who an
swered by fire would be the true
God. The priests screamed and
prayed and prostrated themselves,
even cutting their flesh with knives,
In q frenzy Of supplication. But
the altar stood cold and the heavens
were as brass. Doubt crept into the
hearts of the followers of Baal.
Then Elijah addressed the multi
tude How long go ye limping be-
tween the two sides? If Jehovah
be God, follow Him; but if Baal,
follow him." Ours is a test-meeting
faith.
Then the fire of Jehovah fell"
and consumed the offering. The
tickle people turned upon the
idolatrous priests and slew them.

pupa stage and shortly afterwards
the adult flies emerge. There are
several generations of these pests
in a summer. The leafminer
spends the winter in tn pupa
stage, this time buried in the soil
close to the plant.
Control by cultivating the

Failing in this, spraying must be
resorted to when the flies emerge
