SUBJECT.
HOW HUMAN FAITH CO-OPERATBD TO
PRODUCE THE MIGHTY WORKS
OF JESUS.
Introduction—The aspect of the
work of Jesus, the Son of God, which
now comes before us turns on. his
extraordinary power of instilling
faith into the souls of men, and on
the part which this faith played in the
events which his power produced,
Faith in one or other of its aspects
comes before us in vs. 22, 23, where
Jairus makes his request to Jesus; in
vs. 27, 28 where the sick wtomsxn
touches his clothes; in vs. 33, 34,
where the same woman confesses to
hen act, and Jesus says, "Daughter,
thy faith hath made thee whole,” and
in v. 36, where Jesus encourages
Jairus to believe despite the sorrowful
nfcws from his home. We have seen
beforo that the help of ’Jesus was
rendered powerless through human
lack of faith. Here we have memor
able instances of the contrary.
Jesus appears in this lesson as, in
spite of the nation’s unbelief a.nd in
gratitude, the Great Physician of his
people, the sympathetic Saviour. The
incidents chosen reveal powerfully
that thei*e must be trust in him and
obedience to

this must be added (4) the unquestion

self: "If I may touch but his clothes

Weight for weight rotted manure Is
more valuale than fresh manure as it
contains percentages of plant iood

ing to a new bulletin on Manures and
Fertilizers written by F. T. Shutt, Do
minion Chemist, and L. E. Wright, the
Josses in rotting frequently outbalance
the benefits. Generally speaking, the
sooner the farmer gets bls manure
while still fresh into or onto the soil
the better. Still there are times
when the rotting of manure is an ad
vantage. It is well suited for light
and sandy soils as it tends to make
them more compact and retentive of

then passed through the screen, which

Melba Apple, Originated
Central Experimental
1 Farm, Wins Wilder
Medal
New varieties of apples originated
at the Dominion Experimental Farms
of the Department of Agriculture con
tinue to attract world'wide attention.
Th^ Melba apple, the most recent pro
duct of the work carried on at the
Central Farm, at Ottawa, has been
awarded the Wilder (silver) medal,
the highest award of the American
Pomological Society. This follows
closely on the high award gained re
cently at the International, Horticul
tural Exhibition at Brussels, Belgium,
and is the eighth medal received by
the Horticultural Division of the Cen
tral Farm for meritorious varieties of
apples.
The Melba apple is an open pollin
ated seedling of the famous McIntosh.
Seed of the McIntosh was saved at
Ottawa in 1S98 and sown In the au
tumn of that year. The seed germin
ated the following spring and the
young trees were set out in fruiting
rows in the spring of 1901. One of
these trees, afterwards called the Mel
ba, fruited in 1908, and, as it was so
exceptionally promising, it was named
in 1909.
Propagation was begun in the win
ter of 1908-9 and trees were'-sexit out.
to expermenters for test in 1911 and
since that time. It has now fruited in
many parts of Canada and some parts
of the United States "and has proved
very promising under different cli
matic conditions.
The Melba is a summer apple of
handsome appearance, in season be
fore the Duchess of Oldenburg and
quite as high in quality as the McIn
tosh. In coloi1 it is a pale waxy yel
low, well washed with bright carmine
andcrimson, the former being the pre
dominant color. It has a marked per-'
fume which adds to the attractiveness
of this variety* and the tree is hardy

place, and when they have pushed up
through the soil, remove the burlap,
and give them full sunlight. Unless
there is a storm window on outside
keep the box back at least eight inch
es from the glass to avoid drafts and
low temperatures.
Making the Hot Bed.
Where one has a larger garden and
wants to get off to an early start, it
is better to build a hot bed than to
try and grow the early plants indoors.
Secure a supply of fresh horse manure
which has been turned every day oi-
so to prevent burning, and store this
in some sheltered spot until ready to
use. The hot bed should be located
where it will be convenient for the
attendant, and it must be protected
from north and west winds by fences,
buildings, or shrubbery. Make a pile
of the manure eighteen inches deep,
and be sure it is well pressed down.
If drainage is good, a hole may be dug
and the manure placed in this. On
top of the manure place a light frame
Of wood any desired size and cover
tightly with a window sash, sloping
this a few inches towards the'front.—
which must be south. Cover the man
ure with three or four inches of fine
soil. The bed will heat up rapidly at
first, but by the- fourth day will have
cooled down sufficiently to allow
planting. In cold weather water spar
ingly and only on bright days. Venti
late a little 'every day by raising the
sash, keeping this open longer as the
days grow warmer. Plants should be
transplanted once, and hardened off
in a cold frame, which is similar to
the hot bed only without the manure,
before being set outside.
Watch the Lawn.
A careful inspection of the lawn is
advisable as soon as the frost comes
out of the ground. The past winter
has been particularly severe on win
tering grass and clover, some of the
coldest weather occurring when there
was little cover of snow. As a result,1
there has been a good deal of freezing
and thawing, which alternately con
tracting and releasing the top layer of
the soil breaks off many fine roots and
thus kills the grass and clover. To
correct this condition, it is advisable
to go over the lawn in early spring
with a heavy roller or pounder. Hare
and thin spots should get new seed 4
and plenty of it. Sprinkling this over
a late snowfall is a good plan especial
ly when the, snow is melting and will
disappear , iu a few hours. The seed
will work down into the soil and ger
minate in a few flays.
