Millions of bushels rather than millions of acres should be Canada°s aim. That there is abundant reason to expect larger returns .from the same area is conclusively shown when we compare the average production of the present time with the possible production.

These "possibles" have been obtained under intensive culti- vation methods and conditions not altogether possible on the average farm, yet they suggest the great possibilities of in- creased production. By greater care in the selection' of seed, more thorough cultivation, fer- tilization, better drainage, the average could be raised by at least one-third, That in itself would addat least,e150,0001000 to the annual income of Canada from the farm.

Text of the Lesson, I Sam. ix, 17, to x, 1. Memory Verse, x, .1—golden Text, Pet. ii, 17—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. These three chapters,' in which we find today's lesson (viii to x), tell, a sad yet beautiful and wonderful story, the sad part being Israelis rejection of God. as their king and their desire to be like other nations; the wonderful past, His most gracious dealings with them. and, the beautiful part, the way 13e overruled ordinary events to bring to Samuel the right man.. It seems strange_ that Samuel, knowing so well Eli's failure to govern his sons, should have failed himself in the same way (chapter 1.5), but perhaps some who may read this are not quali0ed to throw any stones. The desire of the people for a visible king, like all other nations, hurt Samuel, for be was now an old man and had all, his life judged them righteously; but, knowing that he was only the Lord's representative, he told Elm all about it, as we should always do in all things. 'l'he Lord reminded Samuel that he was not the rejected one, but that the people had rejected IIim and that Samuel was only: sharing His rejection (chapter vill, 6.0). It is so still, for our Lord Jesus counts alt treatment of His messengers as done to Himself (Matt. x, 24, 25, 40). The Lord told Samuel to heed their request, but to protest andshow them what manner of man the king would be. This he slid in the six times "He will take" of chapter viii, 10-18. Not- witbst wiling the warning the people insisted that they must have a king. Samuel told the Lord their decision, and He told Samuel to snake them a king (chapter viii, 10-22). Whether it be In answer to our right or our wrong requests, it is often His way to do beyond our desires, and so Ole selected for them the finest looking man in all Israel—a choice young man, none ;roodsi er and head and shoulderser a taller than any other (chapter ix, 1, 2; x, 23). Samuel did not need to look for him norto have any anxiety as to finding the right man, for the Lord told Olin in his ear one day, "Tomorrow about this time I will send thee a man• out of the land of Benjamin" (chapter ix, 15, 161. I like that expression "told him in his ear," for it is a great thing to have an err for God, an anointed ear to hear ills voice, His only. The commonplace events which the Lord used to bring the unsuspecting than to Samnol are fully told in chapter ix, 3-14, and, if Tae thus wrought for an unbelieving runt and a rebellious peo- ple, bow much more will He work on behalf of His own, wbo truly desire to please THJui! (Rom„ Mel, 32; Ise. xlviii, 17.) Tile special lesson portion assigned us today begins with Saul aPProitebtng Samuel by the direction of the soling maidens whew be met going out to draw water. blow many Bible loci - 'dents there are associated with women drawing water, and how these maidens must have rejoiced n few tint's or weeks later that they had been used to direct the king to Samuel! There is a lot of comfort In the assurance that God worketh all thing's after the coun- sel of His own will and a whole lot more when we are willing to have Him work in and through us the good works He has prepared for us (19ph. 9, 11; 11, 109. As Saul drew near tet Samuel again the anointed ear heard the Lord's whisper: "Behold the man whom 1 spake to thee at This same shall reign over my people" (verse 17). The words "Behold the man!" make us think of Zech. vi, 12, and John xis, 5, 24, the God -man, the King who shall yet rule over all Israel and over all na- tions forever. As the maidens were used to direct Saul to Samuel, so may we all be used to direct many "who- 'soevers" to Him who is ready to save them and share His kingdom with them. Now we find Saul In the kind hands of Samuel at a surprise party, where he hears wonderful things which he. never expected to bear and which alt came to pass. He is the most honored guest. Samuel, knowing that God would do as He had said, had made every preparation and had invited these thir- ty people to meet him. After the feast. Samuel communed with Saul, then, cared for him Overnight, in the morn- ing orning again communed with him alone. The servant, having passed on, showed him the word of God, kissed him and, anointed him captain over the Lord's inheritance. Saul's humility (verse 21); reminds us of that of Gideon (Judg. vi, 15), and well,wonid it have been for him if be had continued thus humble. Note also his wise conduct toward leis enemies in chapter x, 27, "hie held his peace." or, as in the margin, "13e was' as though be had been deaf," Com- pare Ps, xxaihi,'.13. Chapter x, 7, is one ofthe most rest- ful verses 1 ever found, "Do as occa- sion serve thee, for God Is with thee," And the context teaches me that each morning, as 1 start the day, the Lord knows every one T shall meet and all that shall come my way, lie orders ail the circumstances, mid 1 have only to fit ha, not counting ury own will or pleasure, but, seeing Ells hajjd in every- thing very thing and saying n hearty "]even so, Lord," aim to glorify Dim by patience and lotigsntfetiug with joyfulness, As' Joseph was able': to say te those cruel brethren, "Not you, but God," so may we by bits grace (Gen. MY, 8). because the entire system becomes permeated with injurious acids.
