If sowed on bean ground should the ground be plowed after the beans, dr slrnply %Iragged in geed shape? ,Answer:* As a general rule the seeding of sweet clover in the spring gives better results than if it is sown in ,the fall, especially under climatic conditions prevailing in Ontario, Bean ground should be plowed, disked and thoroughly ' harrowed in preparing it as seedbed for the clover. I would.not advise deep plowing, _but Just a medidsm depth so that a firm; fine seedbed could be obtained.. One of the important things to • look out for my getting a catch of sweet clover is to inno•culate the •soil with the right fam- ily of bacteria.' In order to do this, address the Bacteriology Department of the Ontario Agricultural College, or obtain •sweet clover culture else- where. Full instructions are provid- ed with the innoculating material so that the treatment of the seed is simple. Do not confuse inneeulation with fertilization. Innoeulation is simply the introducing the right fa- ily of bacteria to grow en the roots of the sweet clover. 'Fertilization is the addition of plantfood which will ` help these tiny forms of life to thrive in as much as it promotes the growth of the plant just the same as whole - milk feeds the cattle. You can in- crease your plantfood by manuring the soil or by fertilizing frequently by both methods. a I would advise you to use a nurse crop with the sweet clover, such as provided by a bushel of -spring wheat or barley to the acre. In order to insure a good catch you will do well to sow about 250 lbs. of fertilizer, analyzing 2 to 3 per cent. ammonia, 10 to 12 per cent. phosphoric acid, and approximately 2 per cent. potash to the adre. The success of your sweet clover stand will depend largely upon the viigor of its start. The treat- ment indicated will give greatest op- portunity for a good -strong start. G. H. B.:—Will you please advise me how to treat seed wheat for stink- ing smut? Answer:—The general treatment for stinking smut in wheat is to im- merse the seed -in formalin solution. Proceed as follows:. Into a barrel that contains about 40 gallons of water pour a pint of formalin (40 per cent. formaldehyde) and shovel the wheat that is to be treated, into an open mesh bran -sack, filling the bag about three- quarters. Set the bag into the barrel of formalin mixture and leave it in there for 20 minutes. By this time the liquid will have penetrated the spaces between all of the kernels and will have killed the disease spores or seeds which stick to the kernels of wheat. Take the bag out and spread the Wheat so that it can dry rapidly in order to prepare for sowing. This is best done by spreading it four to six inches deep on a clean floor or cloth and keep it stirred with a rake. When sowing the treated seed it will be necessary for you to open the seeder a little wider than for untreated grain since the treatment tends to swell the kernels -a little. One gallon of the liquid mixture will treat approximate- ly one bushel of wheat. C. E. 5.:--I have a piece of sandy soil which has been cleared seven years, on which five seasons ago I sowed rye, with a 101/2 bushel yield per acre.. I sowed Mammoth clover, which failed. After rye was taken off I rowed to rye and vetch and have done so each season since, with a yield of eighteen to twenty-two bushels per acre.. This spring I sowed Mammoth clover and timothy on part and alsike and timothy on part, hoping to get it -seeded. A portion of it area top -dres- sed. with stable manure but I got no grass. What I want to know is, will I. kill the land with vetch and rye, and will this roil grow sweet clover, and what variety is best for profit? Also, would one bo more likely'to get clover by seding in fall when we sow the rye and vetch? I have seven acres of this kind ..f soil. A portion of it has been nanured heavily twice in five years and I aim to go over perhaps half of it•this fall again.. Vetch ran five and a•half bushels per acre this year, with sixteen and one-fourth bushels of rye. Answer;—Prom your description of the eeil I am of the opinion that this sandy still is sour, I would advise you to apply hid/ to one' ton of :ground limestone to the acre, putting it on any time during fall or early spring an working into o f hP ro und by bar - rowing.

"I'm to have the poplar leaves," cried the second, springing :into the a.de and clapping his hands ever his head. "I am to have the maple leaves," cried the third, rumpling his hair.

As far as killing the land with vetches and rye is concerned, of course you know it is a matter of plantfood exhaustion. Any crop grown con- tinuously rn without the retuof plant - food will use up the available supply of plantfood in the soil and render the soil less useful than before. The vetch crop being a legume, of course, will have some power of keeping up the nitrogen as will the -sweep clover crop, but neither of these crops can of themselves add phosphoric add or potash. It is sometimes •argued by enthusiasts that they bring up phos- phoric acid and potash from the depths of the soil. This • has never been proven experimentally and is only a theory. What has been proven is that the yield of clovers and grain have' been very profitably increased by lib- eral fertilization, and, of ,course, the growth of legumes is exceedingly beneficial in that they help to keep up the supply of humus in the soil Keep in mind that the two great prin- ciples to act upon are firsts, make the home congenial for the plant, g'econd, supply it with abundance of suitable, plantfood. INTERNATIONAL LESSON. OCTOBER 6. John and Peter Become Disciples of Jesus --John 1; 29.42. Golden Text, John 1: 43. V. 29, "John" is, of course, John the Baptist, about whom this story is told. John, the disciple and after- ward the great apostle, is not men- tioned in this lesson by name, but it Is supposed that ha and Andrew were the two disciples of John the Baptist mentioned in v. 85 (compare v. 40). It is most interesting to learn from this narrat_'re that they and others vaz.1 fe tl tv 1 Jesus 1 When Skins Are Prime. There is only one excuse—a poor one for all concerned—for trapping too early. The excuse is, of Course, that some other trapper may get ahead of you. But where the trapper hasn't any competition—on his own farm for in- stance—or where an agreement can be reached to wait, the taking of furs at the right time will bring far larger returns. In a great many cases inexperienc- ed trappers get out too early because they are not quite sure when the vani- eus furs are prime. hence the fol- lowing may enable no inconsiderable number of trappers to make more money out of their work this year. Skunk are prime the end of October. They depreciate about the middle of March. Mink is best during November to the end of January. The fur depre- ciates during February-. Muskrat ,is fair in the afall, when trapping is, of course, easiest. "But the prime fur is taken in the period from mid -winter to March. A good condition may be expected up to about 'the first of June. If you are after raccoon You will find the fur , prime about November fleet. Fox, speaking generally, is prime from the first of November until the middle of March. It will pay trappers handsomely to concentrate their efforts upoi} the periods when furs are prime. Certain- ly no great departures should be..prac- teiced since the result is furs which are of little value to the fur houses. By having plenty of trarps and mak- ing every possible preparation to work vigorously during the right sea- son is the way to get the most out of trapping. e Mothers and daughters of all ages are cordially Invited to write -to thin departrnent, Initiais only will. be publlshsd w(th each queeton end its anawcr as a means of td,ntifioation, but full name and address st bo en ea letter.

Write again. long delayed but never abandoned. There were many in Judea and Galilee in those days who were looking and waiting with passionate longing for the Saviour, who would deliver them from their foreign oppressors and restore the ancient kingdom. John the Baptist declared that the time was at hand, But, like the prophets, he believed, and preached that tha preparation for the coming of the Saviour must be by i repentance. For only the righteous could enter into His kingdom. His` first act would be one of judgment, and He would destroy all sinners. r Now, when. he recognizes in Jesus tlhe! One whose.coming he had foretold,; he calls Him "The Lamb of God." Her must have been thinking either of thei lamb offered in daily sacrifice at the! temple, or of the Pa•ssaver lamb, botlil of which represented to the Jewish mind the removal or forgiveness oft sin and the saving grace of God. The Passover stood always associated with', the deliverance from Egypt. John; thinks first, not of the kingdom which he expects the Christ will establish, but of the taking away of sin. Every- thing, he knew, depended upon that. For where sin remained there could be no salvation. Christ's kingdom'could only come in the fullness of its power when sin was banished. We may suppose that John the Bap- tist was here (°vs. 29-34) talking to a group of his disciples. He points out Jesus to them as Jesus is approach- ing. This is the Saviour Christ of whom he had been telling them, and upon whom he had seen the clove des- cending after His baptism.. He'wouidi have them believe :in and fallow Jesus.1 He would not have known Him, he, said, but for the sign of the dove, and: yet there is evidence that he had known Jesus as a kinsman of blame -I less life before this event. See the stories of the baptism in Matthew, 1Vlark and Luke. V. 37. "The two disciples." Jesus invited them to come tooHis dwelling, and they spent the day in conversation with Him. This was the beginning of an acquaintance which was to trans- form their lives. It is remarkable that John, who is the writer of this Gospel, gives the name of one of these two disciples, but not of the other. He rays also in v. 41 that Andrew "first findeth his own brother Simon," and, the sugges- tion conveyed by the ords "first", and "his own" is, apparently, that the other unnamed disciple also found and brought a brother to Jesus. Who was theother disciple? Read- ers of the Gospel story have almost) unanimously replied "John himself." This seems moat likely to be the true answer. John modestly withholds his own name. But just as Andrew found and brought Simon, so John found and brought James. It was Jesus who gave to Simon the surname "Cephas," Which in Aramaic means "stone," and of which the Greek equivalent is Petros, from which we get "Peter." Jesus recognized the sturdy +strength of this Galilean fisherman, and it was not long after this meeting when He called him to be His follower. To John and James Ile geve the name "Boanerges," which means "sons oe thunder," recognizing in them the fiery passion and eloquence which made them famous in after years. The home of Peter and John was Bethsaida on the lake of Galilee, a lit- tle north of Capernaum. Later, at the time of Jesus' ministry in Galilee, Peter was married and`; living in • C.•apernaum. Both were fishermen. Their education was that of the pious Jewis i home And school, in which they would learn much of the history and moral teachings of the Old Testament.

HAT is Dr. Webster's definition. Many of us know the word only in its war -time application. Webster dwells firstly upon the usage of the turd "morale" as applied to the commonplace happenings of every -day life. His allusion to its reference to an army comes later. And Webster is correct—meticulously so. -It was their private -life morale that made such splendid soldiers of our boys when the time came for them to don the khaki. It was that, and that alone, that made them take the first s'tep,and it was thatwhich carried them through to victory. If their every -day morale had been neglected, the Army could have done little with them and success would not have crowned their efforts. , It is the many little incidents of your daily routine that make up' your morale—the morning shave, your clean Iinen, polished shoes, brushed clothes. Webster speaks of zeal, spirit, hope and confi- dence. jt is by attention to the small details of your personal appearance that these may be attained. The Gillette Safety Razor enters as much into the morale of every.' day life as it did into that of the trenches. It helped our soldiers to maintain their confidence and bearing. It will do the same for you. The Gillette Safety Razor makes the daily shave come easy—there is no pulling or scraping—no honing, or stropping—just five minutes of perfecit shaving comfort.
