(Ha'v'ing spoiled principalities and •powers, he made a show Of then, cepetrly, tri- umphing over t"hent; Col ii: 15, The world is afraid' of a hidden poison, where there is none. The real hidden peison is sin, which\' the. Lord grant me to fear every where: tor it has infe'cte'd all things,' and all places. I3ut, '0' nay dear Saviour, thou beim any all -sufficient Pireservativle and An'bido'te in all places, dwell in the eon'tinualiy, and increase thou my faith, that I may kn'o'w thee, and en- joy thee more and more. .Take away alt slavish fear of death and hell from my soul; for thou least conquered both for me. Let reason vainly boast her power To teach her children how to die; The sinner, in a dying hour, Needs more than reason can supply: A view of Christ, the sinner's friend, Alone can cheer him in the end. When nature sinks 'beneath d'isea'se, And every earthy hope is fled, 'What then can give the sinner ease, .And fill with peace his dying bed' ? Jesus, thy word his heart can cheer, He's blest e'en then if thou art near. The gospel free salvation brings, And Jesus is the gospel theme; n death the pardoned sinner sings, And triumphs in the Saviour's name. '0 death, where is thy' sting? they cry: '0 grave, where is thy victory?" Psalm XI:V.-4 Have all the workers of itriquity kta t wled e who eat at up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the Lord, The "workers of iniquity" work for the wages of death; they fight against God and their own Souls; they barter eternity for time, and part with hap piney for misery, both in possession and reversion. Well, therefore, may it be asked, "Have they no knowledge For common settee, after all, is what they want. They who, with an ap- lietite keen as that, to their food, prey 'upon the poor, and devour the people of God, will themselvese be preyed upon and devoured by that roaring, lion, whose agents for the present they are; and such as now "call not on" the name of "the ,Lord" Jestts for pardon and salvation, shall hereafter no righteous. lI'n the parallel place, Ps. liii, 5. af- ter • the words 'There were they in great fear," are added these, "where 11'o fear was," which certainly 'connect better with what follows, -"For Godr is in the generation o'f the righteous." David is supposed to he speaking pri- marily of Israel's defection from hiin' Ed, Albsaloni, 'and here to be assigning the motive of that defection'' in many, 'tamely, fear of the rebel's gro.Wing power, and distrust of his ability to protect them; which fear, he observes, was groundless, because his cause was the cause of God, who would not fail to appear in its support and vindica- tion. The subjects of Christ, in times of persecution, are often tempted to renounce their allegiance upon the same principle of fear; although •o'f 'them it niay more emphatically be said, that they 'fear where no fear is. since God is in the generation of the righteous;" and they who are engag- ed on the side of the Messiah, will, in the end, most assuredly be triumph- ant The latter clause of this verse, in Ps. Iii. 1. runs thus, "For God hath scattered, or shall scatter, the bones of hint that encanrpeth against thee; thou hast or shalt put 'them to shame, because God hath despised then:" the sense of which is. evident- ly the same with—"God is in the gen- eration of the righteous;" "he will de- fend them, and overthrow- their en- emies: therefore let them not fear, neither let their hearts be troubled, HIGHWAY EXPENDITURES. 'During the year 1930 a total of $85,729;372 was spent in the con- struction and ntaintenence of .Canad- ian highways, exclusive of local roads receiving no provincial subsidy and urban street, according to figures con- tained it e t the annual report for 1930 "The Highway and Motor Vehicle in Canada." This report was issued by ;Dominion Bureau of Statistics. Dur- ing the year additional expenditures on bridges and ferries brought the 'to- tal for highways, bridges and ferries to $93401,050. 'INc outstanding provincial debt for highways at the end of the year to- talled approximately $326,659,000; At the end of the year there were 80,498 miles of surfaced highways in Canada and 397;373 utiles of all classes of highway.

PAGE SEVEN .Al are timber All e good ie and any selection should give us an exceptionally good council. Clean Nests, Clean Eggs. It takes less time to place clean straw in the nests than it takes to clean eggs. Some eggs will become dirty in spite of the best of care, but the, e'gg' cleaning work is greatly re- duced if the nests are cleaner at egg gathering time when dirt is noticed and a tittlg clean straw is added once or 'twice each week. This is a good early morning job 'before the hens start using the nests. If you leave no straw stack, keep a, bale of straw in each laying house 'so that a measure of the loose straw can be worked up and added 'by handfuls' td any nests where the b'oard's are becoming bare or the straw is soiled. Keep Mangers CIean. An inspection o'f the mangers of stables When cows are not doing well might go a long way toward fin'din'g out the cause of trouble. Sanitation in mangers and the drinking supply is in many cases very poor. When cows don't drink as much water as they should or leave a certain amount of meal in the hottdrn of the mangers, the trouble may generally be laid to the door of poor sanitation. An in- spection of mangers and drinking cups would probably show that the cups had become fouled with chaff and spoiled silage, and when :left for even a day the, water is filthy. It is reason- able that caws will not drink freely of this waiter. Anywhere from a quarter of an inch of Bard accumulated filth can sometimes be scraped out of tnc manger. It has a stench which makes the animal quit eating long before it has had enough. Drinking bowls and managers should be kept clean if the cattle are to flourish,' • H ere and There i Canada has a bumper crop of potatoes this year with an offi- cial preliminary estimate putting the total 1921 yield at 92,558,330 bushels from 576,200 acres as com- pared with 80,401,660 bushels from 571,800 acres in 1930. Canada is the pioneer in fish culture on this continent. The first fry hatched from artificially fertilized eggs in Canada were produced in 1858 and fish culture was established as a Dominion Government service. in 1867. Britishers are eating Canadian eggs this year with their break- fast bacon. Estimates for 1931 place a figure of 20,000 cases, each of 30 dozen eggs, for export to Great Britain. Last year ft was only 6,500 cases. The fur trade is stili one of Canada's big assets. In 1667 furs to the value cf 550,000 francs were exported to France. Last year their value was placed at $17,- 187,399, meetly to Great Britain and the United States. Grain traffic handled by the Canadian Pacific for October last shows a considerable increase over that carried for October, 1930. A total o;: 17,921 cars was loaded last month from the Prai- rie Provinces as compared with a total of 13,573 cars in October, 1931 Idle since the first week of Oc- tober, . the mill of the British Empire Steel plant at Sydney, N.S., is again in operation, giving full time employment of six days a weelc to upwards of 200 men. They are rolling soft steel for a num- ber of orders recently placed with the company. With a trail mileage of 7,165 miles to his credit and having to date seen 424 moose, 69 eariboo and 494 deer in New Brunswick, E. L. Pope, of Boston, Mass., is back in the New Brunswick for- ests on his 27th hunting trip in 29 seasons. He will spend sev- eral weeks on this trip. Nat. Cornfoot, colorful golf pro at the Canadian Pacific Langara course, Vancouver, for the past five and a hall years, sailed by the Empress of Russia recently for Tokio where he will act as golf instructor at the Fuji Shokai Club course, This organization' operates a huge indoor layout in addition to its outdoors links. Major John SV. Sifton, one of the proprietors of the Manitoba Tree Press, Winnipeg, seated at his writing desl: in his private residence at Toronto recently, pulled a lever which, through the medium of Canadian Pacific Tele- graphs transmission wires, set in motion the new ten unit speed press just erected in the Free Press offices at :, cost of $300,000. The new press has a rated maxi- mum capacity of more than .100,-. 000 forty -page papers per hour. Twelve hundred colonies of screened bees and their accom- panying queens from the Province of Alberta to China was the unique feature. of the -Canadian export trade to the Orient and of the shipments aboard the. Empress or Russia recently. The Euro- pean and American bee produces nearly twice as much honey as its Asiatic brother that has been ex- ploited by the Chinese since the time of Confucius. (799)
