Golden Text. -Ps. 3:3. In the preceding chapter Isaiah prophesied the invasion of Judah by the Assyrians under Sennacherib but, at the same time, assured the people that they would be delivered out of the hand of their enemy. Under the feeling of gratitude for such deliver- ance he cast his mind forward and saw in a vision the day of their great deliverance under the expected Mes- siah. In to -day's lesson the prophet sets forth the` beauties of that Mes- siah and the glories of his kingdom. Isa. 11:1. -The Certainty of Messiah's Coming. "And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse and a branch shall grow out of his roots." A tree decays and apparently dies, but out of its trunk a branch springs or from its roots a shoot sprouts, showing there is still life there. Us- ing this as an illustration the pro- phet says he who is here spoken of should be of the family of Jesse.

Even one row of inferior stock planted along- side good seed in order to round out a field many infect the healthy stock and cause rejection. Where such a practice is followed, provisional cer- tification of fields will not hereafter be considered.

And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice's, den." The description by the prophet is highly poetic and is that of a kolden age. The figure is taken from the condition of animals of various kinds living together in harmony; where -those which are by nature defence- less, and which are usually the prey of the strong, ire permitted to live in security. The prophet, looking down distant ages, as on a beautiful picture, sees under the beneficient reign of the Prince of Peace, a state of things which would be well represented by the wolf dwelling with the lamb, the leopard crouching with the kid, and the little child safe in their midst. This picture became a reality in part irf the early gospel days, for Jesus calmed and 'subdued the angry pas- sions of men until they sat at his feet clothed and in their right minds and children were no longer afraid of them es heretofore. The gospel has often changed the bitter persecutor as it did Saul of Tarsus to the mild- ness and gentleness of a lamb. It has had in all succeeding times an in- fluence over nations tending to pro- duce "peace on earth, good will to men." Verses 9 -10. --Universal Dominion. "They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for Even though Jesse had died and though the ancient family of David enenti of the people; to it shall th g there the Gentiles seek; and his rest shall would fall into decay, yetbe glorious." would arise from that family an il- lustrious descendant. When the Mes- siah did come the family of David had lost much -of its glory. The mother of Jesus, a direct descend- ant from Jesse, was poor and un- known, yet from that inglorious root sprang one who to -day is honored wherever His name has been made known. Verses 2 -5 -The Character of the Messiah. "And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel au3 1pight, the spirit of knowledge, and of the fear of the Lord; and shall make him of quick understanding .in the fear of the the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears; but with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he stay the wicked. And righteous- ness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins." Passage after passage is found in the New Testament ascribing to Jes- us the very attributes that are here so beautifully and clearly outlined by the prophet as belonging to the com- ing Messiah. Jesus was wise, rever- ent, considerate of the poor, no man pleased, for he judged not according to appearance, but with righteous judgment; meek but on occasion could speak with authority, even to driving out with his own hands those who were defiling the temple and fighting against them with the sword of his mouths. The prophet in these verses makes reference to the Spirit of the Lord resting upon the Messiah. • The Spir- it of God descended and rested upon Jesus at his baptism (Matt. 3 : 16). It may be asked why one who was divine in His nature' needed to be equipped by the aid of the spirit. Jesus was human as well as divine, for we are told he grew in wisdom and in favor with God and man as He grew in stature. His human nature was kept pure, His mind was made eminently wise and His heart respon- sive to the love of God, and there is nothing extraordinary in our think- ing these outstanding endowments were from God, "For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of gek for God giveth not the spirit by m' - sure unto Him" (John 3 - 34). The Messiah is furthertdescribed as hav- ing righteousness and faithfulness as a girdle for his loins and his, reins, In ancient -times the ordinary dress had over it a loose, flowing robe which required a girdle to keep it close to the body. The prophet was but using a common mode of Serip- Itural speech, "I.put on righteousness. and it clothed me: my judgment wad as 'a robe and a diadem" (Job. 29:14). This part of the Messiah's- character Inas pre-eminently found in Jesus Christ, bound as closely to His nature as a. garment, Verses 6 8, -Peale and . Security. Ile;,wfOlales Shall dwdli *kb the 573 59.7 345 67.9 267 68.3 242 54.6 We look forward to the day when "Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Does His successive journeys run." And it was of that the prophet was thinking as he in vision pictured the Gentiles flocking round the ensign of the Messiah• the root of Jesse. Then shall be fulfilled the Saviour's words: -"And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me." Ps. 2 : 8 -God's Gift to the Messiah. "Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession." ' These words of the psalmist were the testimony of his belief that the Messiah would surely reign over Jew and Gentile. That was a great thought for the psalmist but how much greater for us. We know whereas he believed it would come to pass. We are seeing it 'coming for the gospel of Jesus Christ is sub- duing kingdoms; and causing oppos- ing forces everywhere to vanish be- fore the glory of His presence. "All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth" were Christ's words just before His ascension. "The 'story of this world ever since the sur - rection has been but a record o on- quered antagonism to him. The work of the gospel of Christ is "To cast the kingdoms old Into another mould." .

The cattle market is rather dull, the farmers of the district hav- ing just about complelted their ne- cessary purchases of feeding stock for winter. Buyers _'are paying $1 a bushel for wheat, with,.oats offer- ed at a sale bringing 59 cents a bushel. Turnips have risen to 25 cents a bushel, which is quite high, and potatoes are freely selling at $1, which is belov3 normal Fall plow- ing was never in better shape, the open Fall having been conducive to plentiful working, some land having been cross plowed. Farm help is plentiful, thanks to the arrival -of a good many Swiss farm laborers who have been placed. There will be arrivals of more of these hardy laborers, eccuatomed to farm work, before Spring sets in. The open season also enables many farmers to give more attention to the proper winter storage of their implements. For many years it was customary to see even such a com- plicated machine as a binder left out in the open for snow, sleet and rain to damage to the utmost of their ability. With higher prices for farm produce, there is every reason why every implement should be given the greatest possible care. Few far- mers would leave their car out for the winter -and an automobile is better protected against inclemency Many farmers of Norfolk county in the vicinity of Simcoe, are taking advantage of an arrangement made whereby pulverized limestone - is shipped from Dundas to any point in Norfolk county at a very favorable rate. About fifty carloads have al- ready been ordered. A demonstra- tion at the farm of C. E. Innes was given to show the modus operandi of spreading it, the field being fora tomato crop next year. The powder is spread by a machine very similar to a farm seeder used for broadcasting, the box being re- plenished from a wagon load of the lime at the end of the field. The work can be done after the frost has set in if the lime is not allowed to get wet. It was stated that a. single application would suffice for about four years on ordinary soil, if about two tons per acre were applied. He expects to treat abput 100 acres this year. The low rate at which the lime was being secured was only tempor- ary being in the nature of a demon- stration of the value as a crop pro- ducer on land lacking in lime con- tent. The demonstration and in fact the arrangement for rates was made through the Dominion Canners and is but one more instance of their co- operation with the farmers who sup- ply them with their produce during the canning season. J. E. Brethour and Nephew, of Burford, about set a record when at. the Ontario Provincial Winter Fair at Guelph last week they made what practically amounted to a clean-up in the bacon hdg and carcass classes, the money winnings being over $400. In the final, the bacon carcass class- es, they netted first, two seconds, and a fourth with 96 carcases entered. The record comes in that this is the 23rd year in which they have effect- ed such a clean-up with Oak Lodge Yorkshires. • There is an old saying that op- portunity comes but once. But there are some farm producers who don't wait for opportunity to come, but go after it and when it is not in sight make it. J. W. Clark, Cains- ville, well-known joultry fancier, found a way to convert a crop this Fall that cut down his overhead. His orchard bore well this year, and he was anxious to place the fruit ie. the local market. In went a little ad in the city daily: "Cooking apples, cheap, Spies, Greenings, picked. Will keep all Winter; 60 cents a bushel, five bushels $2.50. And in the tail was the creation of an opportunity. Every fruit producer knows of the difficulty of getting briskets in crop time -and paying for them at any time in view of recent high prices. This was the tail of the tale. "Will takeood baskets in exchange." he war able, where folks did not have the ready cash, to get in exehange the very thing he needs, and there- by avoided ordering in a crowded market or tieing up further capital by placing his order far in advance, Among recent visitors at the head office of the Dominion Holstein Friesian Breeders' Association here were Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Moore, Es- sondale, British Columbia, Mr. Moore being a director of the association, president of the 'British Columbia Dairymen's Association, and super intendent of the great "Colony Farm" on which is maintained one of the finest herds in the world. The average production ;of this herd last year, with 62 -heifers and calves, was 15,485 lbs., of milk, a record never so far as is known, equalled by any herd. 11'our Swiss farm hands who had been working in Western Canada were placed during the past week with font Brant County farmers, who were glad to get', them.
