News and Information For the Busy Farmer (Furnished by the Ontario Depart- ment ent o f Agriculture) a Crops Come on Rapidly Although recent heavy rains re- tarded haying operations and flatten- ed out fields of grain in many dis- tricts, the harvest is progressing nice- ly. 'Yields of fall wheat were ,report- ed excellent, while pastures have im- proved considerably due to the fall of moisture. Root crops are coming on rapidly and corn is doing especial- ly well in most counties, Oats and barley promise a heavy yield. Apple scab has been difficult to control this year due to the sultry weather, The potato crop looks good and there is every indication of a heavy yield. Experimental Piot Work Field inspection tours of demon- stration experimental plots•in East- tion Ontario by O. A. C. officials have been in progress during the month of July. Crops in general in this sec- tion are particularly, . good and res- ponse of crops to fertility treatment is quite marked, Especially is this true of potatoes and wheat, Ina fer- tility test conducted by the O. A. C. Department' of Chemistry in Bruce County, new potatoes have been run- ning 110' bags per acre. Hogging Corn Saves Feed In a series of tests the practice of "hogging" corn, i.e., turning hoghs in to a field. of mature corn to feed, show that material economies: in meal feed are possible and that the returns - from hogs, `so fed are subsequently greater than the cost of growing the corn. The type of hog developed is entirely satisfactory; the practice of "hogging" saves considerable grain for growing hogs at a time when farm grains are most scarce, An am- ple supply .of fresh water must be available on the hogging : lot; tank- age supplied by a self -feeder is desir- able.

Department of Bot- any- is conducting an experiment to test various methods for the eradica- tion of sow thistle, In the experi- ment one-half of each phot received complete fertilizer, while the other half was left unfertilized. In the un- fertilized portions the sow thistle plants were :/more ntunerous and were always larger and,ntore' vigorous than those in the fertilized sections. The plants in the latter plots were dwarf- ed and showed no indication of flow- ering this season. BRUCE JUNIOR FARMERS' PICNIC (Continued from page one) girls, E. Prues, Malcolm; I.

THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING, Time.—A.D, ''36. Place.- Samaria. The road from Jerusalem to Gaza, PHILIP AND THE TREASURER. Butan angel of the Lord spake unto Philip. Peter and John, having accomplished their special task, re- turned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel on the way to many Samari- tan villages. Saying, Arise. Leave the work you - have been doing and launch out boldly into fresh effort— a call which comes often to _zealous Christians, And go toward the •south' unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza: the same is des- ert In olden days the Philistines had occtpied five great cities in the plain along the Mediterranean, and Gaza was the city farthest south. • And he arose and went; Note the promptness of . Philip's ,obedience. He did not ask for`more time for prepar- ation for the journey. None of this: he simply "arose and went," And be- hold, a man of Ethopia, How swift- ly the, sacred historian leaps upon the'.. essentials! No mention of, adventures by the way, no account of long 'trudg- ing over weary leagues; there were many perplexities and toils, bat they were not worth mention in this re- cital. What a marvel, in that vast wilderness, to hit upon this one dis- tinguished traveller from far away! But, then, the evangelist had angelic guidance,' A eunuch of great author- ity under Candace, queen of the Eth- iopians, who was over all her treas- ure,' who had come to Jerusalem to worship, Ethopia .was the great re- gion south of Egypt, 'called Cush in the Old Testament, and consisting of .i Nubia, Abyssinia, etc, its northern 110;0ton :heir the kirlgdon o ` er e, ,gwrirer ied:eete this time, :bee ueec menu nabee'd: Cendaee; • a sl.i s "; ''And a ` .'i h was „ttxntYl„acid st�ttiiig it his chariot. ”ret The feast was over, and the treasurer was on his way a, Ng« 1. eel a ' «, 0 The person who drives in the middle of the road at any speed, but especially the extremely slow driver, offers a silent insult to every other driver on the highway. But this disregard of every rule of common courtesy is merely incidental. The real offense of the Road Hog is that he forces others to risk life and limb. He . obstructs the vision of those drivers behind him and makes them either drive at his speed or risk a head-on collision in passing him. Probably no form of law -breaking on the highways causes directly or indirectly so varied a list of accidents as does middle-of-the-road driving. Every man who drives a car helps to pay for the highways. Every motorist is entitled to use them safely. Why deprive any man of his right? Don't be a Road Hog. ONTARIO DEPARTMENT of HIGHWAYS -EO, S. HENRY, PREMIER OF ONTARIO AND MINISTER OF HIGHWAYS P2 back to Meroe by way of Gaza and Egypt. And was reading the prophet Isaiah. It is not improbable that the eunuch had heard, at Jerusalem, of the death of Jesus, and of the won - derful events connected with it, of his claim to be the Messiah, and the ex- istence of a numerous party who' ac- knoweldged him in that character, And the Spirit said unto Philip, Probably by an inner divine prompt- ing. Go near, and; join thyself to this chariot, It would be natural for . a lone traveller to attach himself for protection to the large retinue that would be attending this influneial personage, and Philip would not be considered presumptuous, And Philip ran to him. There was no hesitation, no dawdling, in Phil- ip's obedience. And heard him read- ing Isaiah the prophet. "Orientals are' accustomed to read aloud, even when they are alone, and it was usual. for a Jew,' or one who had virtually become so, to read from the Scrip- tures when travelling, to beguile the way; for the sacred writings, in some part of them, were, we may say, the one book a Jew of that age would op - 'en; all others being prescribed as heathen, or concerned with subjects related to heathen studies," And said, Understandest thou what thou realest? Those whom God pro- mises to satisfy are they who, like the Etheopian,; are hungering ,and thirsting for righteousness and truth. And he said, How can I, except some one shall guide me. This roy- al officer had the true humility. And he besought Philip to come tip and sit with him, The part of wisdom is to take advantage of every possible assistance in, getting at the true meaning of the Scriptures, Now the passage/ of the scripture which he was reading was this. Sure- ly the Holy Spirit had guided hitt to that passage, which was Isa. 63: 7, 8—the' crowning prophecy. of the Messiah, extending from isa, 52: 13 to the close of the chapter 53, He was lad as a sheep to the slengltter, Our Lord in his death took the place of the passover lamb, being slain at the time of the passover, and become ing a perpetual sacrifice for sin, And es a lamb before his shearer is dumb, So he apeneth not his tnouth. Christ's silence before .his judges, while he was sttbjeeted ttr all,the injustice and ornelt r.,o1f that most wieked trial, am- azed Pilate (Mark ilii: 4,..5),, hisr In humiliation his judgment was taken away. The meaning is'sIiMl ngib Nil thus given in the Old Testament (re- vised Version); "By oppression and judgment (that is, by an oppressive judgment) he was taken away." His generation on who shall declare? For his life is taken from the earth. The Greek version seems to refer the "tak- ing away" to the glorification conse- quent upon the suffering. PHILIP THE EVANGELIST. And the eunuch answered Philip. He made further reply to Philip's question in verse 80. And said, I pray thee, of whore speaketh the prophet this? The eunuch had gone far en- ough to have arousedinquiry in his mind. "If we only had mare eager- nes today, what new truth might come to us, what answers to perplex- ing questions, what clearing up of mysteries!" Of himself, or of some other? There was a tradition that Isaiah was sawn asunder by . Manas- seh. The treasurer inay have been acquainted with this tradition and have conJectured that Isaiah was for- telling his own sufferings.. And Philip opened his mouth. This phrase, ,wherever it occurs in the New 'Testament, implies something. like a set discourse. It always means something more than the mere act of speaking. And beginning from this scripture. Take people where you find them, and as you find them, Any state of mind is a good starting point for evangelists, Do not wait. Prea- ched unto him Jesus. 1 -le must have set forth the historic facts which are included in, the Apostles' Creed, the incarnation, the, miracles, death, re- surrection and ascension of Christ, and the institution of the sacrament of baptism as the means of entering into the church. This is still the pro- grannie for all Christiana. And. as they went on the way. The blessed conversation continuing with eagerness on ,both sides. They came unto a certain water; and the eunuch saith, Be hold, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? Phil.. ip may have spoken of the Lord' command. And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized hien. As soon as he learned a truth, he put it in practice, What a rebuke to the hundreds of thousands, brought up in the full light of Christianity, who yet palter and procrastinate and al- low their lives to slip away without confessing their Saviour! And when they came up out of the water, the spirit of the Lord caught away Philip. The .implication of a supernatural carrying away of Philip is clear, and such a departure would seal upon the chancellor's mind the truths that Philip had been teaching. And the eunuch saw him no more, for he went on his way rejoicing. His longings were satisfied. But Philip was found at Azotus. He was next seen at Azotus, which was the acient Ashdod, another of the five Philistine capitals, about twenty rnilnis north of Gaza. And ,passing through (the other sea -coast towns) he preached the gospel to all the cities, till he came to Caesarea. Here we find Philip twenty years let=
