How It Paid Us to Buy an Ensilage

leery fall among silo owners is the.
timely filling of the silo. In soe
eases it is a •serious one, and a
con-
siderable amount of money is lost by
the owners of the silo because a cut-
ter cannot be fouree to do the work
-when it is most needed.
When four of us, whose farms are
adjoining, nought, altos at the same
timg we had this silo -filling problem
to solve. One day an agent came
along, and after an hour or so we
bought a small -sized cutter.
Die cost of the mishits was $285,
which, divided among four, was not
much of a burden for anyone, On the
whole it is a cheap cutter. It has a
13 -inch throat. On an average, with
good power, it will run from 6 to 8
tons of silage . an hour, One can
usually figure that a cutter or any
other macbiuery will do from 3.0 to
50 per cent. less work than the sales-
men claim; and this was no exception.

According to some writers this is an
error, and we should not tramp it at

The great advantage of this priv-
ately owned cutter is that we can get
our silos filled when the corn Is ready.
Corn must go into the silo at the pro-
per time to make the .best food.
Another great advantage of owning
a cutter is that a silo is easily re-

Charles Darwin made his reputation
with a single book. And how long do
you think he was engaged upon it?
On my return it occurred to me, in
1837, that something might perhaps
be made out on this. question by pa-
tiently accumulating and reflecting on
all sorts of facts which could possibly
have any bearing on it (he says).
After five years' work I allowed my-
self to speculate on the subject, and
drew up some short notes; these I en-
larged in 1844 into a sketch of the
conclusions which then seemed to nae',
probable; from that period to the
present day I have steadily pursued
the same object. I hope I may be
excused for these personal details, as
ifrot
I. give them to show that I have
been hasty in coming to my couclu-
sion. My work is now (18h0) nearly
finished; but as it will take me many
more years to complete it, and as my'
health is far from strong, I have been
induced to publish this abstract.

This last fact regarding the king
dom of God in the world, or the church
as the visibly constituted and organ-
ized force of the kingdom, has not
been sufficiently recognized or under-
stood. The gospel throws the door
wide open both in Christian and in
non-Christian lands, and many res- .
pond to its invitation. Multitudes of
widely varying character and dispose- ,
tion flock into the church. The leaven
of the truth is working, but the mass
is not immediately leavened. The
process goes on through the ages. In
the individual. character. elements of
evil still remain along with the good,
and in the society and offices of the
church evil men often find a place.
The church, at the best, is made up of
imperfect people. Who shall draw the
line and make the separation between
good and bad? Sometimes the distinc-
tion is clear; very often it is not clear.
To root up the tares might be to root
up the wheat also. See vv. 29, 30,
37-43.
The ideal of the kingdom is a per-
fect order, both in the individual life
and in society. That is 'what all Chris-
tian men and women labor for and
pray for continually. It is that they
may do God's will perfectly in all the
duties and relations of life, It is to
love the Lord our God with all
the
heart, and to love our neighbor as
ourself. This is the standard which
must never be lowered, the high at-
tainment of Christ -likeness after
which we are continually striving, Bat
we must recognize, sadly indeed and
shamefacedly, the evil that is still
present with us, fight it as best we

The Weapons of the Kingdom.—In
one remarkable passage (Luke 17: 20-
21) Jesus declares that "the kingdom.
of God cometh not with observation"
that As not in visible power and splen-
dor, It is "within you" oc' "in til
midst of you," He said. With t'lti3'
harmonizes St Paul's saying in II.
Cole 10 8-5, that "the weapons of our
warfare are not of the flesh," Never

the weapons are mighty. They'
are spiritual forces, working like the
life that is in the :seed and like the
leaven in the meal, destroying the
evil, reviving the dead, transforininf,,.
