We read in Daniel how the king- dom of Babylon was taken over by Darius the Mede and Cyrus the Per- sian. The former king being an old man, handed over the government to Cyrus. As soon as he was fully established he set himself to deliver the captive Jews. "It is a reason- able conjecture that on the capture of Babylon, Cyrus was brought into per- sonal contact with Daniel, and that his attention was drawn by that pro- phet to the prophecy of Isaiah (44:28) —"That saith of Cyrus, He is my Shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure; even saying to Jerusalem. Thou shalt be built and to the tem- ple, Thy foundations shall be laid." Cyrus probably accepted this pro- phecy as a "charge" to rebuild the Temple."—(The Bible Commentary). Reference is made to the prophecy of Jeremiah who had proclaimed the promise of God that the captive Jews would return at a stated time. They were to be in exile seventy years (Jer. 25:12; 29:10). That time having expired "the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus, King of Persia, that he made a proclamation through- out all his kingdom, and put it also in writing." Cyrus in this proclamation retakes mention of his having received his kingdom from the Lord God of hea- ven and having in some way, by dream or vision possibly, been auth- orized to "build him a house at Jer- usalem." The king followed up this proclam- ation by granting permission to all the Israelites to return to Judah. Only a portion of them took advan- tage of it. Josephus says, • Many remained in Babylon since they were disinclined to relinquish their proper- ty." He went farther for he encour- aged the native subjects of Babylon to contribute liberally for the build- ing of the house of God in Jerusalem. Matthew Henry says:—We may sup- pose the Jews had conducted them- selves so well among their neigh- bors, that they would be as forward to accommodate them, because they loved them, .as the Egyptians were, because they were weary of them. At least, many would be kind to them because they saw the government would take it well. Cyrus not only gave his good wishes with them that went (their God be with them, v. 3) but took care also to furnish them with such things as they needed. The priests and Levites were the first to set their faces Zionward for God had wrought in their hearts and in the hearts of many of the people a desire to return to the land of their fathers. God worked in them both to will and to do. Then, too, God inclined the hearts of their Gen- tile neighbors to obey the admonition of the king to help them with gold and silver, goods, and beasts and pre- cious things. Their song of rejoicing, at the great things God had done for them is found in Ps. 126:1-6. WORLD MISSIONS 1Hlow Road -Building in China Helps Missions. (By Rev. Andrew Thomson, B.A., Tao K'ou, Honan). Two years ago, in common with large parts of North China, this dis- trict suffered heavily from floods. As a means of affording relief I propos- ed to the officials here the building of a road between the cities of Tao K'ou and Hera, using in its construc- tion only workmen from the flood districts. The moral and spiritual results ac- cruing from the building of the road are not less important than the ma- terial benefits. It is an object lesson that there is a better and happier way of living than each man for him- self. The overwhelming majority of the Chinese know no other rule than "The 'simple plan, that he shall take who has the power, and he should keep who can." This road built by the money of people thousands of miles away, to whom it can never be of the least use, is a sermon three miles long on the text, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Suspicion and hos• tility have given way to confidence and goodwill. Last month the two Mandarins agreed upon an annual grant of $1,200 Mexican for five years to keep the road in repair, and insisted that I should undertake full control over the expenditure. They said that if I did they knew that the money would all be spent on the road. So now I am Minister of Public Works. The circumstance has open- ed doors for rne which were hitherto closed. The most difficult classes to reach are the wealthy and official 'classes. These people are now wil- ling to listen to the message of the Gospel in a way that they would never before. Towards then end of last year I organized a class for the study of the Neve Testament, its members being from the people men- tioned. theChallife, the Reli614 ar o Lheyea IEmex the Challenger has outstandingly established itself so the Reliability car of the year.

W. C. McNown, professor of high- way engineering, University of Kan- sas, shows tread wear on 30 by 5.77 inch balloon tires. Conclusions from this research are: 1. Balloon tire wear is less affect- ed by differences in road surfaces than are high-pressure tires. 2. The firm -surfaced roads, such as brick, concrete and asphaltic concrete have nearly the same effect upon the tread wear of. 'balloon tires. Minor differences in the surface of a given type may cause more difference in wear than that shown by two differ- ent types in similar good surface con- dition. 3. Development types of surface, such as sand -clay, gravel of glacier origin, and probably earth, all dry and in good surface condition, cause less tread wear on 'balloon tires than do the firm -surfaced types above men- tioned. 4. Front tire tread wear is greater than rear tire tread on firm -surfaced roads and is less than rear tire tread wear on loose -surfaced roads made up of sand or gravel with smooth round- ed particles. The result of this and similar in- vestigations are of great importance to the highway engineer who has to decide on road types. Obviously, tire wear is onef the highway transpor- tation costergand should be considered together with other factors when de- ciding upon the type of road to be SHEEP A CONTRIBUTOR TO FARM PROFIT Under proper environment and right care there is no form of live stock that will return as much pro- fit on the money invested in them than may be made from a small flock of sheep. First there is the wool clip which at present values is quite pro- fitable. Then the income from their sale as mutton. Mutton has rapidly become popular with meat eaters and the demand is growing at a rapid rate. This is the reason for the pre- vailing high prices which have been maintained for a number of years so that the outlook for profit from this source is quite promising. There is no farm animal that com- pares with a flock of sheep for clean- ing up the weeds on a farm and this is not the least important reason for their maintenance. A reasonably good pasture suitable for forage crops and some knowledge of the proper care are basic essentials for successful flock maintenance. We would not advise anyone to go into the business on a large scale before they had acquired some knowledge as to proper maintenance. This of course, holds true of any kind of live stock and perhaps more so with sheep than any other. There are many suc- cessful sheep growers on the corn belt farms and the best evidence of the satisfaction which comes from their maintenance is the fact that once they win a place they hold it. We advise growing of sheep, starting in a modest way and expanding as one acquires the knowledge neces- sary for successful flock handling. FEEDING VALUE OF GRASSES The leaf of a grass is richer in nutrients than the stern, therefore there is a natural cycle of nutritive value which is very largely independ- ent of weather conditions. Early in the year the percentage of leaf is much greater than that of stem, and consequently the herbage has a high nutritive value independent of wea- ther conditions. The ratio becomes increasingly in favor of the 'step as heading stage approaches, and con- tinues until maturity, the nutritive value falling accordingly.

Many times they lead the list and the herds at the end of the year stand at or near the top in average profit per cow. More and more western breeders are entering the show ring and winning a share of the ribbons in the best competition. It is splen- did evidence of the strength and val- ue of the breed. No other breed occupies a beaten place among farmers, it is a fermi- ers' breed, its best breeders have hem farmers. In this lies its greatest strength, its strongest hope for the future. BEEF AND MILK COW INCREASINGLY POPULAR It has always seemed to us that the Shorthorn cow that would yield a yemunerative amount of milk and beef was the most profitable sort for the average farmer of the country to keep. Plenty of these cows have been developed within the breed and families established that are so strongly bred in this characteristic, along with other good Shorthorn qualifications, that their offspring carries the same valuable qualities. In other words Milking Shorthorns as we prefer to call them are a firm- ly fixed type and exist in large and increasing numbers. We have sev- eral.farms here in New England and other parts of the Atlantic States, where Shorthorns of this type have been bred for many years, even for three and four generations. It is noticeable that their owners notwith- standing the competition of farmers who are owners of special dairy breeds in a section where dairying is an established business, are generally prosperous owners of well tilled acre- age, equipped with good buildings and possessors of comforts and conveni- ences. It is easy to imagine condi- tions in other parts of this great country even better adapted to this type of livestock but the point that has always been noticeable in Milk- ing Shorthorns is their genuine abil- ity to adapt themselves to all condi- tions and climates. This is of course the old time and all time character- istic of the breed and particularly demonstrated by this type. In Eng- land, in North and South America, in Australia and New Zealand, Milking Shorthorns are universally distribut- ed and rank high in comparison with other breeds. During the past ten years a great many farmers in the great central portion of our country that were naturally livestock breeders and many others who were previously grain raisers, have gone into a type of farming centered around the pro- duction of dairy products. If it fol- lows the same lines of development that has characterized the older sec- tions of the country it develops ev- entually into a one type form of farming that is not at all suitable to the majority of the farms of this great section of America. The farm- er in that section naturally should raise considerable young stock be- cause he possesses the feed for rear- ing and finishing. The dairy type of steers or heifer has little usefulness in his scheme of making a livelihood. The monthly milk cheque may prove attractive when beef is low and is al- ways a valuable adjunct to the busi- ness. It will likely continue to be looked upon favorably as a part of the farm income by these people but we imagine with better prices for other products the urge and necessity of turning a few profitable steers each year' will turn more and more men to the Shorthorn cow. The great and increasing demand for Milking Shorthorn that has develop- ed the past few years, a demand that has shown a uniform increasesince about 1910 is proof indeed of the de- velopment that is going on in Ameri- can farming. We believe the Milk- ing Shorthorn has been equipped by inheritance through the work of good breeders to meet successfully and profitably the demands of American agriculture for both milk and beef. Formerly Milking Shorthorns were largely, confined to the more eastern sections of the country but the pad five years has shown great ettatageo. More and more we note reports cow sting associations in Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa wad the Dakotas with very profitable prodne. BETS ABOUT BIG BEN Once again Big Ben becomes the centre of controversy because of the allegations of musical experts that its chimes are untuneful, the bell hav- ing been cracked by its clapper soon after it was installed. The title of Big Ben first belonged to the bell, but has now been transferred to the clock, or, perhaps it is more accurate to say that it now embraces both. The clock has always been a fruitful source of revenue to gamblers. Ann journalist whose business it is to ae- swer the queries of newspaper read- ers will testify that they have more questions about Big Ben than any other subject in the world—even more than about Niagara or the Pyramids Flo uatillyee ilmez Almorhine will quietly nog thoroughly dean off' a bunch or bruice on your horoe's ankle,hoctc, Wile knee or threat cuitbout laying him of2 work during treatment.
