'This Psalm is in a man- ner the same with the 53dIt sets forth t1-0, the corruption of the world; 4-6, its enmity against the people of 'God; 7, the people tong and pray for salva- tion. 1. The fool hath said in his '(heart, There is no God; they are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is cone that doth good. It dices not appear upon what oc- casion David composed this Psalm. The revolt of Israel in Absalom's re- bellion is by most writers pitched upon as the subject of it. But be this as it may, the expression's are gen- eral, and evidently designed' to ex- tend beyond a private interpretation. And, accordingly, the apostle, Roni. THE SEAFORTH NEWS. tit. 10,'&c. produces Some passages from it, to,evinee ile apostasy 01 both Jews and Gentiles from their Ring and their Cod, and to prove them to be all ander sin, In 'this light, there- fore, we are to consider it, as charac- terizing the principles and practices of those who oplifose the gospel of Christ in alt ages. - "The fool "hae said in his heart, there is no God." ,Dnlfidelity is the beginning of sin, fol- ly -the ,foundation of iirifidelity, and the heart the seat of both. ---"Their foolish 'heart (says St. Paul of, the 'heathen) 'was darlcen'ed. The sad consequence of defection in principle, is corrup- tion in practice—"They are corrupt, they have 'done abominable works, there is none t'h,at doth good." 'On these words the reader, may .see a full comment, Rom. i. 28-32, 2. 'The Lord looked d'oWti from 'hea- ven upon the children of men, to see if there. was any that did understand, ,and seek God, 3. They are all gone aside, they are all together become Melly or pia tified: there is none that cloth good, no, not o'ne. Like a watchman on the top of some lofty tow'er, God is represented as surveying front his heavenly throne the son's of Adam, and their proceed- ings tipon the earth; he scrutin'ize's them, and as it were, searches dili- gently to 'find among them a man of true wisdom, one Whose heart was turned toward 'the Lord' ,his God, one who was inquiring the may to sal_ va'tioo and glory, that he Might walk therein, But as the result of this ex- tensive and accurate survey, God in - form's his prophet, and commissions him to inform the world, that all had declined from the paths of wis- dom and righteousness; that the bulk Of human nature was become putrid, requiringto be cleansed, and fire ves- sel trade of it to be formed anew, Such is the Scripture account of man, not having received grace, or having fallen from' it; of matt' without 'Christ, or 10 arms against him,—See Rom. iii. 1'1, 12.

Ontario Wins at Chicago. Ontario :Seed !Exhibitors at the International,' Grain and 1 -Tay !Show at Chicago More than held their own against the finest entries of grain and grass seeds' from alt States in the Union and other Provi4ces in the !Dominion. Slightly nlore)t'han 100 ex- hibits were forwarded fo Chicago and upwards of 75 prizes were awarded to Ontario exhibitors The winnings in- cluded championships in corn, beans' and clover seed. Mrs. M. E."Maycock of Milford has thedistinction of Winning the field bain championship for two years in succession, R. Lemarc'he, Casselman, a ne'w exhibitor at Chicago, won the championship in red clover. Incident- ally \Ir, Lemarche' also won the red clover championship at the Royal and Ottawa Winter ;Fairs, IOthet prize winners were J. '>I. Frisby, 'Gormley, J. H. 'Lalnpman, iRidge'to'wn, Peter Clark and Sons, Highgate, John E. Alton, (Rockwood. In the pea classes Tom 'Berberctch. Jr., Mildmay, and H. L. Goltz, Brace - bridge, were well up at the top. 'Ontario also scored heavily in the live stock division, taking .first place among the provinces with a total of wine crowns. She was second to At- berta in the grain and seed divisions, Ontario led the Domonion as to total number of firsts, • 'Canada made an enviable showing at Chicago, capturing ten champion- ships, and three reserves in the grain division, and 10 crowns and 10 re- serves in the live stock Leading all Canadian exhibitors for individual showing was Herman Trelle of Wem- bley, Alta., with five crowns in grains and seeds. ,No one else among the en- trants in the show equalled this re- cord. Ottawa Fair Contests. The Inter -County Live Stock and Seed Judging Competitions conducted at the Ottawa Winter Fair brought teams of young men from fourteen eastern Ontario counties. The A. H. Acres Trophy for seed judging was won by the Renfrew County team for the third time and it thus becomes the permanent ,property of that county. Renfrew team scored 1,3025 out of a possible 1;500 points, while the Leeds team were runners-up with a score of 1230%. The Peter White Trophy, emblematic of .the live stack judging championship, was won by Prince Edward :County, which county also W011 it in 1928 and 19129, while Lan- ark was successful in 1030. Dundas I' County was runner-up this year. Transatlantic Telephone Lands Order The energetic sales force of the Maple Leaf Milling Company learned of a Glasgow merchant who desired high-grade flour in short order. Picking up the receiver in the office in Toronto a salesman talked by telephone with the dealer, selling .hinrthe flour for immediate delivery in Glasgow. As the receiver went up on the transatlantic telephone call the Long Distance telephone was busy ordering the rush loading of the flour from the company's mills at Port Colborne. Next morning the sturdy freighter Anna, Captain Jonasson, passed Toronto outward bound for Glasgow with 23,000, bags of Canadian flour tucked away in her hold. The intimate relationsbetweennations and the uninterrupted flow of business and capital are of such impor- tante in the world of affairs that transatlantic telephone service and long distance telephone service generally become daily more of a vital necessity. Winnipeg Police Use Radio -Equipped Ford Fleet AFLEET of Ford cars, equipped with Marconi radio sets, has Just been put in service by the Winnipeg 23- Police Department. The cruisers are kept constantly in touch with Police Headquarters through Ra- dio Station MM. The new police fleet is the first in Canada to be equipped with radio. Many cities in the United States Have been using the system with great success. The cruisers of the Winnipeg fleet are kept constantly in service patrolling the city. Their 'drivers are at all times in touch with. Police Head- quarters.. The wave length ofthe police radio station is kept secret so that criminals may not be able to listen in on the police reports. Police o0ficials, are confident that the new radio -equipped Ford fleet will prove0 great assistance in combatting crime. ® p TOWN TOPICS TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO Death of Alexander Charlesworth., The news cif the death of Alexander Charlesworth at Zurich on Monday was quite a shock to his many friends. as very few had known that 'he was For the past ten years the de- ceased, has resided in Egmondville, where he conducted a farm and dealt more or less extensively in horses. Previously for many years he carried on a grocery and tea business in Sea- forth, thefirmbeing Charlesworth and Brownell. About a year ago in company with his son Leo, lie pur- chased a hardware business at Zurich and has since spent considerable of his time there. He leaves a widow and four children: The deceased was widely known and esteemed and the relatives have the sympathy of a large circle of friends. Pass Inspection with Honors. Mr. Kidd, of Seaforth, inspector of ,food under the Dominion Govern- ment, was in town on Monday, secur- ing samples of groceries, for govern- ment analysis. We notice by the re- ports of the Inland revenue depart- ment the results of some tests made of vinegar and maple sugar. Both vi- negar and maple sugar from the local stores are reported as pure and adul- terated. The report states that in many parts of the province the latter has been greatly adulterated, Install Engine. ,Kennedy Bros. have had a two - horsepower gasoline engine, manufac- tured by the International Harvester Company at London, installed this week. They will use it in their meat business. They are also putting in a bone cutter. A successful operation for appendi- citis was performed ontMr. John Mar- tin, 2nd concession of Tuckersmith on Tuesday by the local doctors. The patient is doing as well as can be ex- pected. Mrs. R. J. French was called away this week to Blyth on account of the 'd'eatli. of her uncle, Mr. Rob- ert 'Somers. Dublin. Mr. and Mrs. Ritz of Logan spent Sunday with Mr and Mrs. Geo. Rock in the village,—Mrs, Thos. Madigan after spending a few weeks H'itlr rela- tives and friends in this neighborhood, returned to her Moine at Stratford on Monday.—i'Irs. Jas. Pierce, who has been visiting her daughter and at- tending the marriage of her son John in Chicago, returned home this week. The Huron Old Boys in 1905, A. very enjoyable evening was spent last Friday night at Webb's, 'Toronto. when about seventy-five members of the Huron Old ,Boys' As- sociation indulged in reminiscences and oysters. Good as were the oys- ters, the reminiscences were probably more satisfactory to those present. ,Particularly interesting was Il'Ir. 11. Parkinson's address in Which he drew comparison between the social, relig- ious and educational conditions of Hu- ron County forty years ago, and those of the present day: Mr. Parkinson re- called the old logging bees, followed by a regular old-fashioned dance. He. had touching remenrbratrces of the old ane armed school master, who drilled the scholars in the three R's and performed' deeds of valor upon their persons with one arm "A boy didn't come hone then and tell how many straps he got," said -lir, Park- inson. "He generally preferred to say nothing about it. In those days, if we played truant, we played truant like men, and afterwards took our Whipping like men." In comparing the size of families then and ttow-, Mr, Parkinson. said: "No more families of thirteen and fourteen children; three or four at the most is all you see now." Mr. E. E. Sheppard had some very humorous and pertinent remarks to make regarding farmers in general, "Trine curse of the present age is in- sincerity," said ibr, Sheppard, "though the farmer is dishonest, he is sincere in his dishonesty. You can easily de- tect hint. The trotrble in the city is that the grafters form into combines," "The man from the farm who gets into public life," he added, "should keep the system of ethics which he expeote4 from public men while he himself was on the farts." Needs Money and Cattle, A report in The World stated that the B'arx Cattle Co., familiarly known as I3ion. John Dryden's .Dakota ranch, must .have more capital or they would have to wind up business. There are a number of stockholders of the con- certi in Seaforth and surrounding townships and the following particul- ars with be of interest: .It is Stated that it has steadily lost money since its organization, through the severity of the Dakota winters, and the unaccountable disappearance of thousands of animals, The ranch PAGE. SEVEN cottt'ps'ises 80,000 acres of land in southern Dakota and when organized' was capitalized at $400,000 about half paid up. About 7000 cattle were placed on the ranch and were enclosed by a stout fence, ,Now, it is claimed, 3500 or 4000 will cover all the cattle on the property. Two of the directors from .Ontario saw the ranch a few weeks ago said the round -up developed the surprising result that, after allowing for sales and loss through the severe winters, and adding the cattle bought. every year, the' total was several thou- sand housand short of what was expected. No account can be given of these animals but it is not thought So many could stray away, although it is admitted the, enclosing fence was broken in some places. Some4o'f the sharehtolders af- firm that proof has been lacking of the titunber of cattle placed on the ranch, and that the management has incurred heavy loss through buying at bad seasons, and in the face of a :falling market, On one occasion a loss from $8,000 to $10,000 was incur- red in this way. * * * * * * * ,t: * * * * NEWS AND INFORMATION * * FOR THE BUSY FARMER * * (Furnished by ;Ontario Depart- * * meet of Agriculture.) * * * * * * * * * * * * Crate -Feeding Pays. (Farmers who are in a position to follow the .practice, find that crate- feeding of their poultry pays them big dividends. There are several reasons for this. It produce's the ' milk -fed grades which bring the highest prices; the leading wholesale merchants are now buying poultry by Government grades with substantial differentials between each grade; the premium as- sured for birds which grade "milk - fed" makes orate -feeding worth while; and all poultry intended for eating purposes should be properly ,fiitihed before being marketed. The farmer who has poultry to market would do well to remember that it is the last pound which brings the finish and in- creases the value of the bird by 50 or 75 cents. Clean and Sterilize All Dairy Utensils. The keeping quality of milk de- pends directly upon the number of bacteria present and this in turn de- pends upon the thoroughness with which dairy utensils have been clean- ed and sterilized. The use of lire steam or scalding with boiling water is always effective providing it is available in sufficient volume, but as a general rule the quantity available on the average farm is inadequate for effective results. It is for this reason that the use of chlorine in suitable form is recommended by bacteriolog- ical experts. It acts rapidly in cold water, and is cheaper and more con- venient than the heat treatment gen- erally recommended. (When properly employed 'chlorine sterilization gives excellent results and the practice, al- ready general among milk and other food plants, is spreading to the dairy farms. Farm Mortgages. The 'Government has notified the Ontario Agricultural Development Board, which hold $35,000,000 of farm mortgages, not to foreclose under any circumstances when mortgagors are unable to meet their obligations. iHon. W. H, .Price, !Acting Prime 'Minister, pointed out that the province holds a greater number of farm mortgages than any private company, and lie in= timated that legislation would be brought down at the next session to provide for a modified moratorium an mortgages, "We realize that in these times of fivan'cial stress many farmers who otherwise.would be able 'to meet their payments are in •considerable dif- 6(01ty and the Government is anx- ious to 'help :them over this period of ifinaucial stringency," said Cot. (Price, adding that he had 'asked loam com- panies to be lenient in this regard and made the same .request to sheriffs and bailiffs, The proposed legislation will seek to prevent the mortgage being foreclosed in case of default of inter- est payments, giving the mortgagor an extension of time, Junior Farmers at Chicago. Fourteen boys and twelve girls, Junior iFarnrer prize witltrers in their various classifications, represented :Ontario at the Annual Congress of the 4aFI Clubs in Chicago during tltie first week in December, Under the case'of W. K. Riddell, departmental repres- entative, and 'Miss ;Edith .Hopkins of the '\l'cniien's Institute Branch, these fJ'uwior iFartners joined with the 1;200 411 Club members, representing most of the States of the Union. Each of these farts boys and girls had achieve ed a distinction in same branch of agriculture, All were prize winners locally and the tangible evidence • of their pre-eminence was the trip to Chicago to attend the 'International !Live Stock Show and to .tour various industries in the city.
