First be -I cause slag contain, only phosphoric acid plantfood which is of use for the pot::to crop, whereas the rapid growing, heavy feeding potato re -1 quires a good supply of nitrogen and potash; 00:1 second, because slag contains considerable amount of ac-, Live lime which produces ideal con- ditions for the growth of potato scab.l Apply your slag to grain crops that have been well manure:. The phos -d phor,ic acid of the slag will tend to: balance up the weak point in manure; as a grain fertilizer. Use- a medium' to high grade fertilizer on potatoes if you wish to get best results, Suc- cecsful potato growers use fertilizers' analyzing from 3 to 5 per cent. am -1 nionia, 0 to 8 per cent, phosphoric acid and 3 to 5 per cent. potash.

Will spraying con- trol the diseao'a? Answer:—The blossom end rot of tomatoes is a trouble that is not fully understood. It le not due to any blight 1)r bacterial attack, but is the result of some break in the continuous growth of the plant. - It may be due to an over -stimulation of the stock growth, which would result from too heavy manuring, or the application of too large quantitic, of nitrate of soda or some other nitrogen carriers. Ic may ale() be Clue to irregular water- ing. The best preventatives are careful tillage of the tomato soils end mulching 1)o as to maintain a conetnnt m: isture supply oral the ap- pliaatlon of a fair ,supply of wall- bal- anced fertilizer, so that there may be a regular sepply of suitable nouri.'.h- ment for the developing. plant, The amount and nnuly: is of such a fertil- izer to u: a to the acre 1.143 been out- lined in the preceding question.' {I'll -47' .

Recently a writer slated that it is ('.11 11ece=nary for nit f :+•mens to have mare -decd. herae of dairy cattle, IIe °eeleine thud the owner of the pure-bred herd should 1ia'e the same relation to the owner of grade cattle a' the corn breeder has to the other farmers who raise ercps of market corn, Of ccuree, it is not necessary for All farmers to be corn breeders but they do wish to have a place to go to obtain pure seed when they need it, However, this does not mean that more good blood is not needed in most herds. This blood can be sup- plied by the use of the pure-bred sire and good grade herds. The farmer who owns pure-bred stock is able to supply pure-bred sires to other farm- ers who do not owns a pure-bred cow but wish to improve the quality -of their herd by the use of a pure-bred sire, The point seems interesting and if it is correct some farmers who feel that they have to apologize for their grade cows can now feel that thy are doing all right if they are selling -a fair quantity of market milk from their grade cows and making an effort to improve their herd by the use of the pure-bred sire. For many years, however, we have learned •the difference between pure- bred and scrub stock and it has al- ways seemed that the arguments have been all in favor of the •pure-breds. It is rather difficult for some farmers to feel that they are really getting along with their dairy cattle until they are able to oven soine pure-bred stock. The ownership of a pure-bred herd gives a farmer some business oppor- tunities that the owner of grade stock leeks. The chance of selling stock at auction in co-operation with other owners of the same breed, is a great advantage to the farmer in some com- munities. The sales of bull calves for sires often prove very profitable ,transactions. The study of pedigrees and breeding records is interesting and instructive and no farmer really gets interested in such thing's until he awns a few pure-bred animals. One thing is certain, There is no immediate danger of there being too many breeders of pure-bred dairy rattle. The writer believes that femora with good grade herds can make progress finen by the e l a1) of a pure-bred sirs but also believes that the Telmer who •is able to take up, ,pure-bred stock raising on at least a small scale should not be satisfied to continue with grades .if he is inter- ested in cure bred animals and en - lova working with them, There will always be enough f vi ers who do1 not with to hived seed em'n or pure - bred cattle.

Such experiences do sometimes lead men to • .entance hat Ch ri: is W r inrr i Lessen VIII. Repentance—Jonah 3: 1-10; Luke 13: 1-5; Acis 2: 37, 30. Golden Text, Mark 1: 141. Jonah 3, 1-10. The Repentance of Nineveh. "Yet forty days," Jonah had no nteeen,3'e of mercy or of hope. He d :1 net bring to Nineveh the whole of the truth with whish he had been entrostcd. Jonah )'cpre- rents very perfectly the spi;ice of many of the Jews scattered through- out the world in the period of Baby- lon: an exile - and after, who deiced the overthrow of the heathen naiione and the triumph of Israel over the 00101)1011 who 1114: so long opp•essel them. Their feeling was a perfectly natural one, for they had undoubted- ly suffered great wrongs. See, for example, Ieetah's prediction of the ileum of Assyria (lea. 10: 10.1:1 and 24-27), Nahum's vivid portrayal of the :fall of Nineveh (Nah. 2, 3), and the "burden of Babylon" (Isa. 13, 14). But the Lord had given to Israel another message for the hea- then world. Israel, as His people and This servant, was to be for "a light to the Gentiles" and for "sal- vation unto the end of the earth." Jonah had left out of sight in his preaching the mercy of God. But his stern and unqualified denunciation of Gloom stirred the people of the great city to repentance, and with fasting and in sackcloth they'cried for mercy to God. "Let them turn every one from his evil way." The king's proclamation shows an appreciation of what re- pentance really means. The Old Testament words mean simply "turn- ing" and "being sorry." It ,is turn- ing from sin, turning to God, seeking to do God's will. In his ignorance, the king could not give .the people any assurance of God's mercy. The prophet, is he had been so disposed, might have done that, But the Icing said, "Who knoweth?" It might be, he thought, that God would regard their penitence and would have mercy upon them. "Anel God repented." He was sorry for them, had compassion upon them, and turned from His purpose to des- troy thein. Luke 13: 1-5. A Solemn Warning. "Sinners above all." The reference is apparently to events which had recently happened. Tho Galileana had been notably rebellious against Roman authority, and Joaephus men- ton, more than one massacre in which they sufFet'ed. This appears to have been a case where, by the orders of Pilate, the Roman governor, a number of Galileans were slaugh- tered while offering sacrifice, There had also been an accident at Jerus- nieln, :when eighteen persons were killed by the'fall of a tower, It was the common thing in those days to re- gard calamities of that sort, or ..,icic- nless, as a punishment for sin. That Was the way in which Job's friends regarded his sickness, but the book of Job is written as •a protest against its application to 'him. Jesus says here, "Think ye that they were of- fenders above all?" "I toll you, Nay: but except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." It is true that calamity and suffer- ing often seem to bo the judgment of God, but it is likewise true that the F n s addressed to all, for all are in equal need of repentance. There is a graphic picture (hewn in Acts 2: 37-42, cf the 1400(20 which followed Peter's preaching at Pcltre cost. Many were wnvistc.i cf sen, "pricked in their heart."
