He had told His apostles to tarry at Jerusalem until they should be endued with power from on high. After this promise was fulfilled Peter preached to a great multitude with such convincing power that about three thousand were converted at that time and many more were added daily.

They had no money for him but inspired him to believe they had something for him money could not buy. They commanded him to rise up and walk, using the name of Jesus Christ as the great healer. The cure was instan- taneous and the expressions of joy and praise from the man were so sin- cere that on -lookers were .fil_led with wonder and amazement. ' April 19th—Life in the Early Church Acts 4:32-37; 5:1-15; Acts 4:32. Amongst the very early Jerusalem Christians a practice of having one purse for daily needs was observed for a time. In to -day's lesson two in- cidents are given, one of sincere gen- erosity and one .of deceit, Barnabas, a foreigner, was a liberal giver— Ananias wished to be considered such but was found out and the shock and the opening of his eyes to the great- ness of his sin caused him to fall down dead.

Stephen was both a deacon and an evangelist. His work brought him in touch with all classes aniwhile in a synagogue one day he got into dispute with the rulers and his words were regarded as blasphemous so that the :rowd became enraged and he was hurried outside the city gates .,and :toned to death, thus becoming the first martyr of the Christian church. May 3rd—The Benefits of Total Ab- stinience—Dan. 1:8-17; Dan. 1:8. When but a young man Daniel and his three friends were true to their .convictions when put to severe test. They were at college in Babylon and were expected to eat and drink what was set before them- By doing so they would be going against all they had been taught as right in their homeland, so they, by their prudence, gained a chance to show that the sim- ple life is the best both physically, mentally and morally. May 10th --Philip and the Ethiopian Treasurer—Acts 8 : 26-39; .Ps. 119:139. Philip, preaching in Samaria, was told by an angel of the Lord to leave there and go by a desert road to Gaza. Not knowing the why of this commis- sion he set out at once and on the way was overtaken by a chariot in which sat an Ethiopian eunuch. He was reading aloud from the prophet Isai- ah. Philip spoke to him inquiring if he understood what he was reading. The result was the conversion and baptism of this stranger who after- wards went on his way rejoicing and Philip returned to his own country. May 17th --Saul Becomes a Christian —Acts 9:1-12, 17, 18; 2 Cor. 5:17. Saul, the persecutor, set out on a Journey to Damascus to arrest and bring to Jerusalem, for punishment some of the prominent Christians. "Man proposes but God disposes" so before he reached the city he had a vision of Jesus, whichresulted in his conversion and made him Paul the preacher, whose aim become to glory in tribulation. "Yea, doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the ex- cellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord." May 23th—Saul Begins His Great Career—Acts 9:20.31.; 1 Cor. 2:2. Like Moses, Elijah, John the Bap- tist and Jesus, it was given to Saul to be trained in the school of solitude. After staying a few days with the disciples in Damascus he went away into the desert of Arabia and was taught of God for* time. He return- ed to Damascus and began his life work of preaching that Jesus whose followers he had so shortly, before persecuted. He by his fiery zeal aroused the angry opposition of the Jas and there began "that fierce de- testation which dogged him thence- forward to the end of his days," May 31st --Peter at Lydda and Joppa —Acts 9:82-43; Mark 16:20.

All the milk is collected by the co-operative dairies who make *abutter and then return the skies- mad milk for feeding to the cattle, so that the farmer is free to concentrate' the whole of his time and energies ele the vwork of preduetion. ,Inside this framework is a highly scientific and meticulous scheme by which the payment for the milk de- livered by the farmer to the co open. ative dairy is determined, not accord^;. ing to the total quantity, but by its fatty quantities, worked out to the last decimal's. The farmers forms small societies within the greater co- operative orginazations, each of which employs an expert, . who, travelling from farm to farm, makes_ test milk - _ ings. Obviously, this system of scientific dairy farming, perfected teethe ninth degree, demands from these who practice it a high level of intelligence and an intensive training. The latter is afforded by Government colleges and technical' schools, supplemented by constant expert advice and assist- ance.

DENMARiK'S LESSON TO OTHER NATIONS "Look at Denmark," said Mr. Lloyd George in the House of Commons re- cently, "with its' free, independent, happy, .prosperous -and cultured peas- antry." Advocating the .development of the agricultural possibilities of our own country, Mr. Lloyd George was pointing to Denmark as a shining ex- ample of what can be done when a nation tackles, with intelligence and enterprise, the problem of the land and the utilization of its resources. Commenting on Mr. Lloyd George's utterances, Mr. Leopard Sprey writes in a London paper as follows: A few years ago I was privileged to "look at Denmark" in a very literal application of that expression." Wise and expert guides took me to typical farmsteads, holdings and dairies and revealed the secrets of the apparent miracle by which Denmark, one of the smallest countries in the world in the geographical sense, has become one of the greatest countries in the agricul- tural. The key to that -apparent miracle is composed in three ilvords—small hold- ings, co-operationand education. For the creation of small farms and hold ings, the Danish Government, with powers to divide. up glebe -land and feudal and trust ,estates, sets aside a large sum annually for the granting of loans on very easy terms. The loan amounts to nine -tenths of the value of the land, the applicant pro- viding the remaining tenth as a proof' that he is a thrifty and industrious ma n. As a result of :this system nearly 90 per cent. of Danish land is cultiv- ated by peasants -that is to say, by independent farrneys, freeholders and cottagers---divided roughly into 70,000 farms of from 25 ,to 100 acres, and 100,000 smallholdings of from 3 to 2 acres. An essential of this system is that, though the successful applies for a lot is indebted to the Governs went, he virtually ;becomes its owner, for his land is secured against action of his creditors, and he is at"liberty to dispose of it if be so wish, to an approved tenant. 1l'p to 1914 no less a proportion than 72.8 per cent. of the men who, witheState aid, became SCOTLAND ' Open your account wi secured by the THE, PROVINCE ' Become a de os for to -day and reccFVe security'' coupled withcourteous service The PROVINCE OF ONTARIO:SAVINGS OFFICE,.

There seems to be a greater likii hood of securing a desirable silage from full grown alfalf than -from this crap cut at an earlier stage of maturity. There is an advantage in cutting sweet clover when the flower buds are well formed, but; be- fore the crop blooms, because there is a greater probability of securing a second cutting if the crop is mov- ed at this stage than, if let ge until the full bloom 'stage;' although the silage from full. +hlouin sweet clover was just as good as that from file crop cut in the bud stage, Silage, of good quality Was secured from '' oats, peas and vetches ensiled .when the oatswereIn the milk and dough stag- es, but the later stage or just when the, oats .show the first signs of turn- ing appears to be the most desirable time to cut this crop. From alfalfa which 'had been mowed when one-tenth in bloom and wilted in then sun for at Least 'five hours or for-, 'a- relatively longer period if the sun was not shining, a fairly good silage . was eeechred, while full bloom alfalfa wilted in a similar manner gave n silage of better quality and of considerably greater palatability. Alfalfa en- siled immediately after 'cutting, no matter what was the stage of ma- turity, gave an:,ilndesirable and un- palatable- ,silage. The . wilting, df sweet 'clover, and oats, " pea's and vetches for several hours resulted too, in the .production of a type, of silage. which was somewhat more palatable than that produced by the unwilted material. The length of the period of storage appeared to have little effect upon the silage which was pro- duced. Five pits were stopped .at Dunferm- line by person some malicious er n throw- ing piece os twoelec- tric of chainacross a cables, short circuiting the elec- tric power and stopping the whole works for half a day.

His woo*ien leg becoming: -jammed between the steps and the body of a street car cost the corporation of Edinburgh £300. When boarding 'a. car his artificial leg became_ jammed between the step and the bodyof the car. Workmen had to be- brought. to secure his liberation, which took 'ten 1 minutes. In her 104th year Mrs, Janet Stal- ker, the oldest woman in Craigmill, near Stirling, passed out. Mrs: Stalk- er was a native of the district and had resided under the shadow of the Ab- bey Craig all her life. Her husband, who was a sea captain, died over half a century age. Mrs. Stalker enjoyed good health entil about a year ago when she had a fall in the garden, which compelled her to taketo bed. 'Filing down farthings to the size of a sixpenceand using them to rob cigarette slot machines, landed a Glas- gow youth in jail. The culprit was arrested en three counts; ane of which was the theft of a finger ring from his father's house and the two others re- lating to the theft of 22 packets of cigarettes from automatic machines. An agent said it was the intention of accused's father to send him to the colonies. The magistrate' unposed a fine of ten pounds, withthe the alterna- tive of 30 days' imprisonment. , Wholesale poisoning of Glasgow citizens was narrowly averted. A gruggist supplied Salts of Sorrel in- stead of Saltpeter to a city butcher for preservative purposes. Some time after his departure the druggist discovered his mistake and hastened to the butcher's shop to find it was closed for the night. Determined to run no risk he was early astir next morning waiting at the butcher's door long before the hour of opening.. For- tunately none of the deadly meat had been sold over the counter, though it was all laid out and ready for disposal as soon as the shop opened to custom- ers. St. Enoch's Steeple at Glasgow, with the church, has been condemned, and the whole structure is to be de- molished, in spite of a storm of pro- tcs:.. The steeple has stool over a tunnel for many- years. The argu- ment for its retention was based main- ly on its architectural value. An archaeologist said the church was an architectural incongruity ---a spoiled piece. The stonework was rotten. It was not the vandalism of to -day that was destroying the steeple. The steeple was already destroyed by a hundred years of neglect. LET LEGUMES WILT BEFORE- ENSILING EFORE -ENSILING Silage from legume crops or mix- tures of legumes and cereals ap- pears to be much more desirable quality if these crops are wilted for several hours before ensiling. The wilting of alfalfa; in particular, seems to be essential, if good silage Is to be made, says W. C. Hopper, Field Husbandman, Ottawa Experi- ment Farm. Alfalfa, sweet clover and a mix- ture of oats, peas and vetches were stored at the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, in sinall wooden silos during the "summer of 1924. Each silo was 0 feet high, 3 feet in diamed ter and held- approximately half a ton. The various trials with these crops, which occupied r21 Silos, ins eluded cutting at different stages of maturity, ensiling before and af- ter wilting and storing for periods of three, six and nine months. The silos were opened during' the h11I r of 1924-25 and the Silage weS every respect comparable to that which is produced in.. large Earns sitiot: The result of orae`' . year~°S +�n��,. though lot'rrotiemthr'e, iz3zlida t'liat. the doge. of efietWeiV 411d the u lltali at of't'liioiltl h 01,06, crop it alb time >' et 31irilg la t¢� nn %w 11} lit B iu number of years, during which kinie they: importede. soiree of the best Clydesdales and "Hackneys that could be found in Scotland and England.

LATE ROBERT • GRAHAM . WALL KNOWN HORSEMAN In the old cer etery at eVlarichani, Robert Graham was laid to zest. He was born- in the- epilageee, Mlnrkhaise some sixty-five year§ ago. There no doubt he was 'the' best known horseman on the American' continent. His genial smile arid personality could 'be seen at large shows in the U. S. and this country. .For a number of years consecutive ly he judged at Madison Square Gar- dens, Chicago. - International Live Stock. Show, the Horse Show at Bryn Mawr; the Canadian National Ethibi- .tior}, 'Royal Winter Fair, Ottawa, Guelph, Edmondton, Calgary and Re- gina and Brandon. . His judgment was .never :questioned. He gained his ,horse knowlefdge very early in life. Quite early in ;his, teens he showed his own .yearling Clydes- dale filly at the' Industrial. Fair,Which was then held on King Stlreet, at the back of the present Asylum, beating his own father. This was' his first public appearance. Soon after this he was sent" by. Phis father to Scotland to bring back' a Clydesdale horse called Royal Ex- change. This was the first outstand- ing Clydesdale horse ever brought to this country, and was afterwards sold at a very high price to the late Sen- ator Robert Beith, of Bowmanville. But Robert Graham was a born horseman. He. had a wonderful memory of horses. Would ' know a horse again if he had' not seen him for years. He could easily recount the names of and describe the 'aniinais he lead judged at -different exhibitions many - years previously. lie was a pioneer in all horse breed societies and a chartered dire'cto'r of them all. He was also president of the Clydesdale and Hackney horse Society. In fact no catalogue or of- ficial list of officers. of any of the breed societies Would be complete without his name. . After leaving his brother's, William and Tom, known as the Graham Brothers, he formed the firm .of Graham Renfrew -Company, of Bed- ford Park, 'which Walter RenfrdV and he carried on successfully for a When customers go to the Country many grocers and butchers continue to supply them by calling up out-of-town pros- pects in a circle of '30, 40, or 50 miles on an ap- pointed day and hour, and gettingtheir orders.
