P1tA(,TICAI'� APPLICATIONS.
Characteristics of Love.
1. Kind. "Love suffereth long and is
kind" (v. 4). Long-suffering is love en-
during ((lal. 5, 22; Eph. 4, 2). We are
to "put on...longsufferiing" (Col. 3, 12,
14),end do it joyfully (Cod. 1, 11). John
Wesley suggests bleat long-suffering is a
mild, meretfnd temper, opposed to resent-
ment and revenge; a loving spirit that
outlasts all warongs and overnrea sures
all malice. However long the evil lasts,
love outlasts the evil.
II. Unselfish.. «Lose...seeketh not her
own (vs. 4, 5). Love is never selfish,
Love yields. "Those who strive for their
rightte prevent Christ from getting His."
If we contend for one own rights we
lose one privileges
III. Contennted. "Love... envieth not"
(v. 4). Jeremy Taylor says: "Envy is
a disease full of pain, a great inateurnent
of vexations; it eats the flesh, dories up
the marro wwa makes hall ovres
ey , lean
eheeks and a. pale face. Envy is a direct
resolution never to enter heaven by weay
of noble pleasure in the good of others.'
But love is without earvy, witlasrtrb jeal-
ousy; love is ever contented and finds
happiness, not in getting and saving, but
in giviatg, and serving.
IV. Humble. "Love vaunteth at it-
self" (v. 4). Love is ever the companion
of *minty. Pride insists on the highest
place, humility takes the lowest; pride
vaunts itself, humidity esteems oiihe :
pride seel,, only its own, humility- looks
on tit'e things of others (Phil, 2, 1-4.)
V. Peaceful. "Love, _is not provoked"
(ve. 4, 5, R. V.) . Love hos laid aside all
malice, alt guile, all bitterness, and
wrath and anger and, clamor (I. Pet. 2,
1; Eph. 4, 31). Love has no temper.
Wesley was mobbed and dragged
through the streets by the hair, with
blood flowing from his mouth. Death
threatened fine The ,mob said: "Throw
]trim into the river," Wesley sole he
was se quiet in hie soul as if fatting in
his study. There was rho anger nor re-
sentment in his heart.
VI. Guileless. "Love ... tlhinketh no
evil" (va. 4, 5) . "Let none of you hate
,gine evil against• his brother In your
heart' (Zech. 7, 10) A thought of evil
in the brain is a temptation, not a sin.
Bnt`if we let the evil thought creep to
our lips we begin to entertain .dt and
it gets lips,
into our hearts and we sin.
Speaking of evil leads to dwelling upon
evil. But "love...taaketh not eoeount of
evil" (v. 5, R. V.).

HOW TO HANDLE $TABU
MANURE,
Farmers generally do' not realize
that the pungent but invisible gas
that escapes from the manure heap
is the most valuable coneti.tuetit. This
gas is constantly being formed so long
as the manure lies in moist heaps,
and is as constantly passing from the
heaps into the air. The drying of the
manure takes away from it only water,
leaving all the actual plant food be-
hind. The complete removal of the
water will leave the manure in bet-
ter condition for preservation than
before. •
The decomposition of biirnyard man-
ure can only take place in the pres-
ence of moisture, and if we can with-
draw all moisture the residue will
preserve is fertilizing qualities indef-
initely ,and when moisture is evapor-
ated from the manure heap it carries
with it none of its fertilizing qualities,
but goes into the atmosphere simply
as watery vapor.
There are only two ways in which
manure loses its value; One is by
leachirng by rain, and the other by
heating, which accompanies chemical
action. When the manure is heaped
in the field, or elsewhere in the open,
both these agencies begin their work.
Tile rain falls upon the heap, and
washes its more soluble rid valuable
constituents into the g lad immed-
iately under and arotu the heap,
and bacterial action. b ns in the
heap, freeing its nitrogen and turn-
ing its phosphorus and potassium into
more soluble forms, to lee washed
down by the next shower.
About the most wasteful method of
handling manure is the old one of
putting it into small heaps in the
barnyard. Pally half the potential
fertilizing value of the manure, as it
is vowed by the animal, is found in
the salts dissolved in the liquid por-
tion; the full effect of neither the
solid nor the liquid portion can be
realized except when used in connec-
tion with each other. When the
liquid is allowed to flow away in the
stable or yard, or where it is dis-
placed by rain and separated from the
solid portion, whether in the yard 'or
field, it carries with it+;these fertil-
izing salts, but when it is merely
evaporated they are lel. behind and
still combined with thole of the solid
portion.
The best way to handle manure is
to collect the liquid by 'bundant ab-
sorbents, spread it at . nce, and as
perfectly even as pos :ole' and al-
low thesunshine s and r R to do .their
r�
work. Sunshine will; evaporate the
water, but that is all, and the rain
which follows will redi solve the salts
and wash them into th retire surface
f the soil, where 1. rt- needed,
and not simplyinto li t e spots here
and there. Unerstana nn the nature
and value of manure, the need of
thorough distribution Incomes appar-
ent. When it is spreandetvith the fork
there will inevitably beriaznnps in one
place and bare spots in yiunother, thus
losing part of the possible effect in
one place by excess and in another,
by deficiency. Thi: r a;uires to be
guarded against.
The liquids contain the richest and
most soluble parts of the manure—
the only parts, in fact, that are com-
pletely digested. The solid drop-
pings do not cause any quick growth,
because they are not only low in
nitrogen, but what they do contain
of this element is not soluble, and
thus cannot force growth at once. Nit-
rogen is found in our fertilizing ma-
terials in three forms—nitrate, am-
monia and organic. The first is the
soluble form, in which plants use
their element. The'tothers are changed
more or less slowly into the nitrate
or soluble form.
In a ton of liquids from a cow
there are 12 pounds of .nitrogen. As
nitrate of soda contains 16 per cent.
of nitrogen, the liquid manure is as
strong as a solution of '75 pounds of
nitrate in 1,925 pounds•.`of water. If
we consider the potash the liquid
manure, a barrel of w r of 40 gal-
lons,325 0
lana weighing ds if
made
,p
equal in strength of the liquid, would
contain about 12 pounds of nitrate of
soda and seven pounds of xnuriate of
potash. While this would force crops
think of pouring mrdwdwoiwdiwdod
if sprinkled. evenly, no•: bee would
think of pouring out by the pailful.

ber of pounds of nitrogen, phosphoric
acid and potash in a ton of fresh
urine from horses, cattle, sheep and
swine:

These figures also show that the
great value of stable manure lies in
the liquid parts. Practically ail the
potash is passed in the liquid form,
and the most useful part of the nitro-
gen.
CONDITIONS OE THE iCROPS.
Yields of the great cereals this year
are at a bumper record; the final de-
termination will be required to give it
first or seoond place with the 1906, when
wheat, coin and oats are recorded by
the Agricultural Department aggregat-
ed 4,627,000,000 bushels. The yield of
wheat per acre was only exceeded once
in recent years, the aggregate of 735,-
t
735,-
049,000 little ebelow the
fall 1 I 1906
of 735,260,000 bushels, which was othe
second largest crop ever gathered, the
record being made in 1901, 'when 748,-
000,000 took the edge off a poor Born
yield. The effect of this great crop
coming. after two years of small yields
has stimulated business as elsewhere re-
counted; it comes in time to replenish
the depleted stooks on farms, graneries,
elevators, mills, warehouses and stores.
The returns are the more gratifying be-
cause the year opened unpropitiausly.—

TELLS FARbIERS HOW TO APPLY
LIME TO SOIL.
Going on the assumption that progres-
sive Jersey farmers and truckers axe
open for suggestions in a a.ys of increas-
ing the productiveness of their land Dr.
Edward B. Voorhees, head of the New
Jersey agricultural experiment station,
in a pamphlet he has just issued recom-
mends the yearly application of lime,
It is shown that through a lack of
lime the growth of crops has become less
satisfactory, clover has failed to be pro-
ductive in many instances, and even oats
and corn have not given profitable re-
turns.
"Farmers are puzzled at times," he
goes on. "as to the best way of supply-
ing the needed lime. They have offered
to them various kinds of burned and
crushed limestone, burned or crashed
oyster shells, by-products from factories
and gas plants containing quantities of
lime.
"The subject of liming is made more
complicated still by the chemical com-
position and
om-
fo i forand market values of the
dif-
ferent limes. Some limes can be bought
for half the price of others, yet we know
that the lime with the lowest selling
price is not necessarily the cheapest, nor
that with the highest selling price the
clearest?"
Following is a more outline of
his suggestions with regard lo the use of
lime:
"In reclaiming swamps or very acid
clay soils it may be necessary to apply
three or four tons, at times even more,
of water slaked or air slaked lime to
make the land fit for the vigorous
growth of cultivated crops.
"Under such circumstances it will al-
ways be wise to add enough lime in the
first place to correct the existing acidity.
In other soils tine amounts, required are
much smaller. In heavy clay soils, not
markedly acid, 2,000 to 2,500 pounds of
water slaked lime applied once in five
years will prove sufficient. tiiruiIaarly
1,500 to 2,000 pounds may be recom-
mender for loans soils and 1,000 to 1,500
pounds for light sandy soils. Where air
slaked lime, crushed limestone or oyster
shells are used the quantities may be
safely increased by one-quarter or one-
third, and where alfalfa is to be estab-
lished by one-half or more.
"Instead of applying the quantities
just indicated once in rive years we nmy
apply correspondingly smaller amounts
once in two years, or even annually. 'The
advantage of the smaller and more fre-
quent applications lies in the fact that
the soil is not allowed to become so
markedly deficient in lime, as it some-
times
es in fire or six years
under
intensive methods of cultivation. Fur-
therm*rc.. the smaller quantities, mp,y be
readily distributed by means of the fer-
tilizer drill without involving much ad=
ditionel labor.
"As to the time' of application, the
farmer may consult his convenience in
tbis respect. The lime may be spread on
sod or on, fall plowed ground in the late
fall or Winter, it may be spread apd
harrowed into the soil in the early
spring or it may be distributed by means
of the feiieNiliser drill shortly before seed-
ing.
"It is only necessary to remember in
this connection that lime should not be
spread on top of heavy dressings of fresh
manure, nor mixed with fertilizer eon-
taining acid phosphate or salts of am-
monia. Moreover, it would be best not
to lime the land immediately before the
planting of the potato crop, lest the de-
velopment of potato scab be encouraged,
but preferably on the crop after potatoes
are harvested.
"Finally, it may be urged gainthat
the farmer will find it profitable to ap-
ply generous quantities of lime to his
land;; that he will find the cheapest
source of supply in materials containing
the largest amount of actual lime (or of
actual Bine and magnesia) for the given
price; that he should apply his lime in
a fine state of division, and that, when
the land is no longer markedly acid,
small applications at frequent intervals
will give more satisfactory returns than
large applications at longer .intervals."
