WHERE THE EARTHQUAKE IN ITALT WAS MUST SEVERE. HI Farm Topics. 1 “ W' THE GYPSY MOTH. Th? annual report ot the Connect!- »ut Experiment Station says this pest 1 has not spread during the past year ! In the State. The infested area has been pretty well isolated, and within this area all larvae, pupae and egg i masses have bee»'destroyed as far as i possible. Trees to the number of 15,000 have beep banded, and 3000 j ;aterpillars were destroyed. For the i work there was the annual appropria- ' ‘.ion of $1000, and the State Board i >f Control could expend $1 0,000 if i lecessary.— Country Gentleman. 5 Tn Sunbciu-Scfroof INTERNATIONAL LESSON COM MENTS FOR APRIL 3.

An official report states that an other great man has arisen in China, one who, by his ability and his ichievements, gives promise of being i fit successor to the late Li Hung- Chang. This new leader in the Celes tial Kingdom Is Yuan-Shlh-Kai, who not long ago was appointed president of the board of foreign affairs at Pekin. He was formerly viceroy of Ctilh-Ll, entering on the duties of the office when t h a t province was in dis order and chaos. He grasped the reigns of government with a firm hand, put down thieves and plunder ers of all kinds, and made himself feared and hated by all evil-doers in that section of the country. The good effects of his strong and righteous rule became speedily apparent, and he was recognized as the ablest and most patriotic official in the whole empire. While governor of Chih-Li he instituted good relations with for eigners, and became popular with the Unique Door Bell. A most unique and at the same time practical doorbell is the recent Invention of a Virginia man. As shown in the illustration the bell *.s of the push-button variety and is combined with the door-knob. Even RATIONS FOR LAMBS. One of the best practical farmers ,7i New York says t h a t the best ration .’or young lambs has not yet been ,'ound out, but one of which lambs ire very fond is composed of equal parts of corn and oatmeal, linseed meal and wheat bran. This will probably be considered by many a \ich feed; if so, they can reduce.the ;orn and linseed meal, and so make less fattening food. He prefers the ;orn and oats ground for young lambs, to whole grain. After they become large, and for grown sheep, whole grain is preferred for his feed ing, as the sheep grind their grain very effectually themselves, thus sav ing the trouble of getting it ground. TOO MANY INFERIOR COWS. According to a recent cow census taken by one of the dairy papers, there are some poor cows left even in an old dairy section like central New England. A Massachusetts report | ..... . .......v.. . . ......... n shows herds in which half the cows-; strangers, “just to hear what thoy are kept at a loss when the feed is have to say,' are not sheep.

Anyone who seeks to get access to the sheep in any other way than by the door, i. e., by Christ, is a thief and a robber. The sheep can always teli the difference between the true shepherd and the robber (vs. 3, 4, 2G, 27). Christ’s sheep have six characteristics: (1) They know the Shepherd's voice (v. 4). Every sheep in the East, unless he is sick, recog nizes his shepherd's voice as soon as he speaks. Every one of Christ's sheep recognizes Christ’s voice. The true sheep recognizes Christ's voice despite all the destructive critics. (2) “ The sheep hear His voice” (vs. 3, 27). They not only know it, they heed it. This is one of the surest tests as to whether you are one of Christ’s sheep. Are you heeding His voice? (3) “The sheep follow him” (4, 27). Wherever the sheep see the shepherd going they will follow (Matt. 16-24): The way may seem dark and dangerous and difficult, but they “ follow him.” (4) “They know not the voice of strangers.” A true sheep will not follow a strange voice. The voice may seem soft and silvery. It matters not, it is not the voice of the shepherd.

Graham, of the Con necticut Agricultural College, has been conducting experiments to see wheth er “ poultry pays.” One was tried with White Leghorns. From ninety- one pullets, 7 42 dozen eggs were gathered in one year. The sales from these eggs amounted to $164.46. The cost of feed was $56.30, or sixty-two cents for each hen. This leaves a net profit of $108.16, or $1.18 5-6 foi each hen. Another breed, Rhode Island Reds, while not quite so high in their returns, show a good profit. The feed for the Reds cost $21.33. The sales amounted to $54.14. This leaves a net profit of $32.81, or nine ty-eight cents for each hen. The hens in this lot averaged seventy- leaves ample room for the persons to pass behind him, so that ho may escape having perpetually to reply' to their salutations, which he would be Plenty of Hot Water.

Coyer both boxes with some heavy goods—■ denim or burlap is the best. Use very small tacks for the corners, but for the rest you can use brass headed tacks. Then take the brass tacks DO NOT BURN STALKS. As soon as the season opens np, do not go out and commence to burn off the vegetable matter on your fields. Our soil needs humus, and it is a great mistake to burn grass, corn stalks or cotton stalks. If you are able, says the American Culti vator, buy a stalk cutter and cut them up, so they will not be in the i own and His own know Him even __ way of the plow or the growing crop, the Father knows Him and He knows If you do not feel able to purchase a the Father ( R. V.). Wonderful, who stalk cutter, take hoes or sticks and ; can fathom that depth and intimacy “A stranger will they not follow.” Evidently many professed Christians are not sheep. (6) They “ will flee from him.\ Jesus is also the door by which the sheep pass in. To what is the door? (1) To salvation, “ By Me if any man enter in he shall be saved.\ This makes the way of sal vation very plain and .ample, just pass right in by Jesus Christ. The door is open to all, “ any man.” Though a man be the greatest of sin ners the door stands open (1 Ti. 1:15). He is the only door (Acts 4:12). Neither the law, nor the church, nor morality, nor baptism, nor a creed is the door. “ I am the door.” This door was opened by His atoning death (vs. 10, 11; Gal. 3:13: Eph. 1:7; Heb. 9:22). We enter it by simple faith in Him (Rom. 3:25, R. V.; 4:3, 5; Eph. 2:8; Acts 13:38, 39). Any one who enters In hy Jesus Christ will be saved, no one else will. (2) To liberty, “shall go in and out.” The true acceptance of Jesus leads not to a life of fear and constraint, but to the perfect liberty of a child (cf. Rom. 8:15). (3) To security. This too is found in the \go in and out.” The one who really enters by Christ is eternally secure (vs. 28, 29). (4) To satisfaction, “ shall find pas ture.” There is no such pasture for sheep in all the world as the one who enters hy Jesus finds. The pasture is “ g reen” (Ps. 23:2). It is “good” and “ f a t ” (Ez. 34:14; cf. Isa. 40:9, 10). II. Jesus the Good Shepherd, 10- 10. But Jesus is not only the door. He is the Shepherd also, “ the Good Shepherd.” False christs and leaders had come claiming to be shepherds, hut really thieves and robbers. The Pharisees were such. They came to “steal and kill and destroy.” But Jesus’ mission was glorious. “ I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.” Any of us then may not only have life, but have life “exceeding,” life “beyond measure.\ Have you this superabundant life.' So many have such a thin thread of life. How abundantly we may have life appears in Jno. 1:15 (cf. Col. 1:19; Col. 2:9, 10. R. V.; Eph. 3:16- 19). Then comes that great declara tion, “ I am the Good Shepherd.” Thu best exposition of those sweet words is the one you will get upon your knees pondering them, turning them over and over, constantly looking to God to let you into their wealth of meaning. It is not only a wonder fully comforting thing that Jesus says here, it is also an amazingly daring one. In the Old Testament Jehovah is the Good Shepherd (Ps. 23; Isa. 40:10, 11; Ez 34:11-13). If we aspire to be true shepherds we must be reaay to do the same. If at the approach of danger we leave the sheep and flee for our own safety BUSINESS ESTABLISHED 1880 C. O. Coltiu & Co.

And there is life and eternal security in it (Jno. 17:3; 2 Ti. 2:19; 1:12). Ten great points about the Good Shepherd: (1) He knows the sheep even as the Father knoweth Him and He the Father.

If sown in August, it is a fairly certain crop. It is a good nitrogen gatherer also, if the roots have the requisite no dules. For the succeeding crop, where reliance is placed on the crimson clover for the nitrogen, there should be an application of potash and phos phoric acid.
