Lesson I. July 5, 1914.
trbo Laborerin the Vineyard.
Matt. 20,
Vonnueutary.-I. Laborers 'area
kltrlY (vs. 1. 2). Vor-Tias word, inda
ates a close counection between wliat
precedes It and svhat follows. The
kingdom of heaven -The divine ad-
ministration among men, including
God's providences and the plait or ha -
man redemption in operation. Another
Phase of the kingdom is presented,
which relates to rewards for service
rendered. Many parables aro used by
our Lord to present the various phases
Of His administration. 'Householder -
One who owns an extensive business.
In the parable the householder repre-
eente God. Went out early....to hire
laborers -Travellers hi the East tell
us that it still le the custom for lab-
orers to Assemble very early in the
morning in public places, that employ-
ers may come there to hire them. The
The early hours of the morning were
the best adapted for outdoor labor.
and the work also was pressIng, 2.
Agreed with the laborers -He found
those who desired to work and a de-
finite price was arranged. The labor-
ers representthose who, as servants
of God, have special regard for the
wages offered. A peony a day -This
was the Roman coin denarius, of the
value of about fifteen cents, and re-
presented an ordinary day's wages. In
purchasing power it Was equivalent to
a dollar or more of our money now.
Vineyard -This represents the king-
dom of God on earth. As the aouse-
bolder sought laborers for his vine -
so God is seeking workers to do
His bidding in winning souls for Him.
11. Laborers hired late (vs. 3-7). 3.
About the third hour -The day from
six o'clock in the morning until six at
night was divided into twelve hours,
hence tho third hour was nine o'clock
In -the morning. Saw others -The
householder had hired all who were
there early in the morning, and still
he had not enough laborers to do the
largo amount of work that needed to
be done; therefore he went later to se-
cure those whom he might find ready
to work. Marketplace -An open space
in the city was used for a market, a
place of assembly, for the transaction
of public business, as well as a place
'where those desiring to labor waited
tor employers to appeal. 4. Go ye also
--God is constantly calling new work-
ers into His service. They went their
way -The householders had promised
to pay them what was right, without
stating any definite sum. The laborers
desired employment and went at once,
trusting the householder to bestow up-
on them the proper reward. God is
Pleased with those servants of his who
work for Him because they love Him,
and aro not anxious about what they
shall receive. 5. Sixth and ninth hour
-Twelve and three o'clock. Likewise
-Other laborers had found their waY
to tile market place, -and since workers
were still needed, they wore sent to
the vineyard. These aiso went with-
out questionings or misgivings, trust-
ing the householder implicitly. 6.
eleventh hour -Five o'clock, with but
one hour to work. Why stand ye here
all the day idle -No man would stand
all the day in the marketplace 'idle,
unless because he wanted work and
could not get it. -Exp. Greek Test.
The Master wants workers and will
employ all who are fitted for His ser-
vice and are willing to do the work
he assigns. 7. No man bath hired us -
Teachers and pastors have a duty to
do in recognizing capacity for' work
and encouraging and directing work-
ers in Christ's vineyard.
III. All laborers paid (vs. 8, 9). S.
When even was cone. -Six o'clock, the
close of the day's labor. The Mosaic
law required that the employer *should
pay his laborers their wages each day
(Lev. 19, 13). Steward -One of the
householder's trusted officers. From
the last unto the first -The order of
payment is the inverse of that of
labor. This is almost a necessary
part of the parable. For, if the first
laborers had been paid first, they
ould either have gone away without
knowing what was done to the last,
or, if they had remained, their objec-
tion could not have been urged.--Ed-
ershelm. Our Lord keeps closely to
the principle which he designs to
illustrate. 9. Every man a penny -
Those wo went to work last had been
employed but one hour, while the first
In the vineyard had worked twelve,
Yet each received a penny, a full day's
wages.
IV. Complaints answered (vs. 10-16).
10. First ,supposed that ()eery
should have received more -They had
no just ground for sech a supposition,
inasmuch as they had made a definite
bargain with the householder, end they
received their full wages according to
their agreement. 11. They murmured -
Christians may indeed bo rewarded
according to their works; but the
spirit that seto high value on its work,
and claims high pay over others, may
find its works lowly prized with Ged.
-Whedon. They showed their weak,-
ness by their murmuring. Th a good -
man of the house -The houaeholder.
12. Equal unto us-Equee only in mere
money .value. "We are reword:el as we
go. We get a victork in every fight;
we have a heaven every sunset; we
are paid by the hour, by the moment,
by the breathing. We get what we
can receive, we are rewarded Reeording
to our capacity, and we are not at
liberty, according to this parable, 'to
estimate things by hours and by pen,
riles and by time spent, but by another
law which eomes Into revelation and
operation oftentimes beyond the limits
of mere Word'
s go that we cannot me -
plain the law to a man who has not
aetually lived under its; beneficent
operation." -Parker. The burden a.nd
heat of the day -The severe toil of the
entire day and not siMply one hour,
and the burning rays of the iniddo.y
ttili,
13. Thfs was a respeetful fortii of
address. I do thee to wroitg-The
householder had a right to give his
Money to whom ho would, for by so
doing be was not defrauding those
whem he had hired. This was not a
ease of injustice toward the all -day
laborers, but a ease of liberality to-
ward those who went to work later,
trusting the kin dn ess and faithfulness
of the householder. 14. 'Unto this
last, even as unto thee-Tittie is net

shown a spirit of envy or jealousy, and
were used by our Lord in this parable
to show the disciples the folly ana
sordidness of that disposition that is
calculating and exacting. 16. 'rho last
shall be eirst, and the first last -It
was some time after Jesus had called
his dIsciples and they had left all to,
follow lam, that he told theta any-
thing about reward. They had fol-
lowed hint for bis sake alone, and the
question of compensation had not been
consideree. Those who aro looning for
advantage and reward, will be last,
while those whose service is one os
faith and love evill be first. Many who
think they should be first, and whom
others possibly think should be first,
may be last; while those who are little
thought of may he first in the icing.
dom. Here is encouragement for all
who are devoted to God. •
• Questions. -Whose words suggested
this parable? What do the household-,
or, the vineyard and the laborers rep-
resent? Wliat was the value of the
penny? What difference was there in
the length of time the different groups
of laborers worked? What was the
amount given, to tlie several classes?
Who made complaint? What was the
ground of their complaining? What
lessons aro taught by the parable?
PRACTICAL SURVEY.
Topic -Servants of God.
I, Receive impartial call to service,
II. Rank according to spirituality,
1. Receive impartial call to ser-
vice. This parable is one from which
we are liable to draw erroneous infer -
micas unless it is considered in direct
connection with the circumstances in
which it was originally spoken. It is
closely connected with Jesus' remarks
in describing the reward e of the king-
dom. Peter had observed that Jesus
took into eonsideration the difficulty
of giving up riches and detaching
one's fielf .from the world, and inti-
mated that some merit was due to the
apostles because they had done this.
In so speaking ho revealed exactly
that disposition which most thorough-
ly vitiates all service for Christ. The
Parable seems to convey a warning to
the apostles for their boasting of their
timely and complete adherenCe to
Christ as his first called laborers. It
would teach them that the rewards of
God's kingdom are not of debt, but of
grace and would rebuke their desire
for pre-eminence and those jealousies
and rivalries which so often were ex-
hibited 'while Jesus was among them.
The apostles had been assured of
heavenly reward, but warned that
self-seeking and desire for pre-emin-
ence would destroy the value of their
service, which was not to be deter-
mined by duration, but by their spirit
and motive. Envy of the progress,
the succeee or the rewards of others
was beneash his chosen apostles. Im-
plicit faith in God's justice and love
was their proper attitude. The very
fact that one man envies another his
reivard is enough to convict him of
self-seeking. It is an evil eye 'which
Is displeased at the good of others
and desires their hurt. The enVions
are tormented not only by all the ill
that befalls them, but by all the good
that conies to another. The parable
Is evidently intended as an illustra-
tion and explanation of these defects
as Jeans saw them in his chosen
apostles. The vineyard is the king-
dom of heaven from its •beginning.
II. Rank according to spirituality.
The parable exhibits sovereign mercy,
compassion and love, bawd on the
Iden oe hire' gradually recedes from
view. Every idea of merit in the liter-
al or worldly sense is entirely exclud-
ed. The first places in the kingdorn are
for thoso who are first in humility,
who are willing to be servants of 'all,
who recognize their sinfulness and un-
worthiness. There is no room for sio-
fulness and unworthiness. There is
no room for sinful ambition in the
kingdom of heaven. God knows as no
one else can, all the circumstances,
temptations, advantages and disadvan-
tages which must be taken into consid-
eration in the acenrate estimate of
Character. Loving service excels cal-
culating industry. There is no propor-
tion between cartles services and hea-
ven's glories. The work is for a day,
the reward for eternity. The obviate
and silence all boasting among the
apostles, Jesus suggested the possibil-
ity of tbeir failing behind others in
.knowledge, grace and piety. While
the call is impartial to all, colupara-
tively few reach the heights and the
--depths of spirituality that are con-
tained in the gospel of grace. Out of
the host of vineyard workers only a
few, comparatively speaking, are en-
trusted With large responsibilities or
used in unusual service or granted re-
markable success: The rewards of
grace are regulated by the benefreent
will of him who is debtor to no ,man,
whose equality of justice can be ques-
tioned by no man. God is sovereign in
the exercise of his goodness. Many
who are first in man's esteem are last
in God's reckoning. The parable re-
veals the difference of spirit among
the laborers by the terms of their en-
gagement. The whole was calculated
to draw the apostles into the higher
delights of service and away from
their thoughts of reward, to show that
the spirit of hirelings is incompatible
with the chosen of the Lord. The par-
able conteinplates a, portion only of
God's dealings with His children. It
was the mitror in which the apostles
could see themselves and learn how to
reach the Place in service that would
make them worthy of the name of
"chosen" apostles.-T.R.A.

CLAIM VICTORY
Militants Are Boasting of Success
Over the Government.
New York, June 29-A London cable
to the Tribune says: The militant
suffragettes aro boasting of a com-
plete victory over the' Government.
Not only are there no prosecutions
against the subscribers to the mili-
tants' fund, bat the headquarters in
Kingway, which were raided and
closed by the police a few days ago,
have once more been opened, and the
militants there are openly organizing
their attacks on people and property.
The militants say it is not alto-
gether the wealth and social influence
of the subscribers to the organization
which lias brought about the victory
over the Government. One of the
strongest supporters of militancy, and
one of the largest subscribers to the
fund, claims to' know enough about a
certain member of the Cabinet tc drive
him out of public life, and she seam
sha is resolved to do it if attempts
to confiscate the militants' funds or
close their quarters is continued.

CUCUMBERS AND THEIR ENEMIES
Cucumbers for pickles can be plant-
ed. now. Many faemera delay pleating
until the 21st of June, the longest day.
A. good crop of ptekloBiz° cucumbers
equals 300 to 175 bueliels per acre,
-about 300 piciace being equal to a
bushel.
Tue cucumber ia a trailing annual
plant that is sensitive to frost. Con.
sequeraly it sboulci have a rich, Wane,
sandy loam sail. Land that is good
for corn is about right for cocumeare.
The ground sbould be ineeparee as
for corn, and rows marked out 5 to 6
feet apart, each. way. Plant from 10
to 12 seed at the intersections in hills'
a foot across, and firmly press down
he soil.
Put a shovelful of well -rotted man -
aro or compost under each hill, cov-
ering the immure with about two in-
,ches of earth, before planting the seed,
In giving hie experience a farmer
writes that one year, hexing no rote
ted manure, and the land being fairly
rich in humus, Ile put on a complete
fertilizer, at the rate of about 400
pounds to the acre. The nitrogen was
in the form et nitrate of soda.
The ground mot be kept cultivated
between the hills, both ways, and the
soil loosened twout the plants atter
.eaell robe The plents can be Gleaned
out to three of the Most vigoroue ones
atter they are well up, and serious
danger from insect pests is past.
For table use and marketing cuattra-
bers should be gathered when full
grown, but still green. For pickling
the vines 'mist be picked over at least
every other morning as long as they

eed,

the vines will begin to die, but if the
cucumbers aro
kept picked off the
vines will continue bearing for a long
time.
The enemies of the cucumber are
leaf glaze, downy mildew, scab, Mena
rot, striped beetle, spotted beetle,
pickle worm, melon caterpillar, squash
bug, squash borer, four -lived bug and
flea beetle.
No fungicide has yet been discover -
that is very effective in this disease.
The fruits are deformed, and the leaves
tura yellow and die. A white polished
film can be noticed on the underside
of the diseased leaves.
Downy mildew may be controlled by
spraying every 10 clays with Bordeaux
mixture (114 formula). In this dis-
ease there are yellow, irregular spots
on the leaves, which soon become en-
tirely covered and Shrivel up.
Scab appears in the leaves as semi-
transparent water spots, and the fol-
iage soon wilts and. decays. Spray
with e standard insecticide as soon as
the cleseaeo is noticed.
Stem rot can be checked by prompt
ly zeemovint . end destroying all affect-
ed plant" Stem rot may be known bY
dense white mats of gungous felt at
the Waits of the stem, which shrinks
and turn.; yellow.
The striped and the spotted cucum
ber beetles may be dealt with a dust'
ing of green ansenite. The cucumbers
at the same time should be sprayed
with Bordeaux mixture (1-10 formu-
la).
A full grown pickle worm is some-
what less than an inch in length, and
is of a uniform green color, slightly
tinged with yellow. It is advised to
Plant squash around cucumber fields,
as well as hero and there in the field,
as a sort of trap crop, where they will
congregate and may be killed. All the
old vines and rubbish should be raked
up and burned. The trap crop should
be sprayed with arsenical posions.
The melon caterpillar Is of a white
color, with a border of brown or black.
It feeds on the leaves, and the first
brood may be killed by spraying with
arsenial poisons.
FARM NEWS AND VIEWS.
• At this time of the year many in-
quiries come in concerning small
"green bugs" on a great variety of
plants, shode trees, flowers, garden
truck. etc. These are aphides, com-
monly coiled "plane lice," Since they
are sucking iaseats, ther are to be con-
trolled by a contact spray enesome sort.
For this purpose kerosene emulsion,
common soap aeiution, whale oil soap
solution, or tobacco extract may be
Used.
Kerosene emulsion, diluted 1 part to
10 with water, is effective, but EO otten
is not property made, and Injury is
apt to result to the foliage.
Common soap solution may be made
by dissolving laundry soap in water
at the race et one pound of soap to 4
or 5 gallons of water. •
Male oil soap solution -the potash.
soap being the best -is made by dis-
solving one pound of soap in 5 or 6
gallons of water. Some kinds may be
used even one pound to 8 gallons.
Tobacco extracts may be home made
or of the eommercial preparation.
Small amounts may be made for use
by steeping one pound tobacco leaves
in A4noyr 052 gallons01above w
ar.spraysshould be
applied thoroughly, care being- taken
to get the spray into any of the curled
leaves and onto the aphides so as to
wet them thoroughly. The manner of
application of the spray will depend
upon the size of the plant to bo spray-
ed, ane upon the nature of the plant,
whether tree, vine, low crops of the
garden, flowering plants or house
plants. •

plaints of that season, which are chol-
