Perth ■County reports a number of farmers husy cleaning seed grain and pre­ dicts a good demand for seed of the 193 0 crop which was of very good quality. Renfrew’s seed-cleaning plant has been running at full ca­ pacity night and day and that coun­ ty also expects, a large increase in .alfalfa acreage. No injurious effect upon crops is- seen in Oxford as the result of open winter, although or­ chards were damaged by the Janu­ ary ice storm. Commercial fertilizers, when ap­ plied to various crops in conjunction with good farming methods give big returns. Phosphates increase yields of almost all crops, on almost all types of soil.

Unfortunately we are situated in the very heart of the Rifled and dried out area. In 1930' we had very little returns for our labor sell­ ing only and last nothing In 1930 worked 640 acres, rest summer fallow and pasture, in 1930 we worked. 960 acres, 600 in crop, but because of soil drifting did no fallowing. You can easily understand our overhead would be quite an item and with no returns whatsoever it is rather discouraging. Under such conditions we are pretty •well down and out but by no means licked. We still have faith in the . country and believe that those who will stick it out will be rewarded for their perseverance and patience. We have just been holding on from one stage to another hoping conditions, would" be better /but as yet there seems to be .little or no improvement. The whole economic system seems to be demoralized and before there is any permanent improvement there may have to be some quite radical changes in our present system of conducting the af­ fairs of the country both physically and spiritually. Now I can assure you that we- ap­ preciate very much, your kindness and the patience you have shown by continuing to send the paper to us and the subscription unpaid. We certainly would miss very much the weekly visit of the Exeter paper to our home. It would be like losing an old friend as it keeps us in touch with earlier associations and tne various changes constantly taking place in Exeter and the surrounding country. It certainly is surprising what a vast change a few years will in any community, so many iliar faces removed and others along to take their place. antr^JV to give of -the' pa aridi was down the Reck Hesperus, ma includeing Ant Emmy come to the skool to enjoy thq Xercises of the m. and when wg- got home I ask pa* whut did he think . of the reck of ths Heperus and lie kinda smiled anfl sed Well I don't beleave they wilf.

Harcourt, head of the De­ partment of Chemistry at O. A, C. advises that when selecting the fer­ tilizer for any given crop the fol­ lowing points should be considered: 1. The present fertility of the soil. 2. Previous cropping. 3. Nature of the crop growth. 4. Previous manuring. ■5. to be grown. 6. Composition of fertilizers. 7. Source of ingredients of fer­ tilizer. ’ • 8. Method and rate of applica- [ tic-m 9. State of tilth of soil. Naturally some of these points are interrelated, but all must be consid­ ered if fertilizers are to be used in­ telligently and' economically. Fur­ thermore, it must be clearly under­ stood that fertilizers -should be thought of as a supplement to farm­ yard ! cult: ( As the seeding season approaches the domestic movement of clover and grass seeds naturally increases. In the past month the movement from wholesale houses to dealers commenced and there has been a lot bought from growers, par- of red clover and alfalfa in but also substantial quan- other seeds. The export -of seed ticularly Ontario, 'titles of market in Great Britian ror red clov­ er and alsike has continued active longer than was expected and has absorbed large, quantities of these seeds. However, there are still sub­ stantial supplies of red clover in growers’ hands in the provinces of Quebec, Ontario and British Colum­ bia. Carlot quantities are still awaiting buyers in a number of dis­ tricts. Large amounts of alfalfa seed have been bought frpm grow­ ers recently in Ontario, presumably 4n anticipation of a good demand from the present alfalfa campaign conducted by the Department. Better seed pays big dividends in crop improvement. Production may he increased from 10 to 14 pounds per bushel and from 10 to 14 bush- els pev acre by sowing only la^ge, plump seed. — - Ji a paying old fanning house, fit -■screens and up of seed this spring.

I man manure, crop residues, and good ration.' Branded Rutabages "A premium of over 40 per cent, at prevailing prices, is being paid the Ontario farmer for branded rut­ abagas,” stated J. A. Carroll, Secre­ tary, Ontario Marketing Board. . •On being asked to explain this en­ couraging condition, he said. “In the past, Ontario growers have exported to the U. S. annually, as many as 4,000 carloads of rutabages, or winter table turnips. Until recent­ ly, however, few of these growers and shippers, have given any real thought to developing the trade re­ presented by otir own larger consum­ ing centres. Having neglected market, shippers offered the gestion that nearby farmers, market gardeners, were taking of the limited demand. “Now bad rutabagas are like eggs. They destroy markets, bad and limit consumption. So, with the idea of satisfying themselves that the home markets could be developed, provided that rutabags of a known high quality were put within the reach of the consumer, members of the Ontario* Marketing Board devel­ oped a plan. Explaining the major feature of' the plan, Mr. Carroll said that each rutabaga is branded indi­ vidually. Hitherto, only the -bags bore any trade mark or grade name In cha did Golden Text Christ died for our sins, accord­ ing to the Scriptures (1 Cor, 15:‘35.) The death of the Son of God was a miracle, It was essentially dif­ ferent from every other human death that ever has occurred or ever will occur, When He had said, long before His crucifixion, "Therefore doth My Father love Me, because 1 lay down My life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from Me, but I lay ’it down of Myself, I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again.” (John 10:17, 18.) He meant more than •the fact that lie was going to sub­ mit Himself to His enemies so that they might crucify Him. :He that, of course; as this lesson shows (18:6) they were unable even, to lay hands on Him until they were, di­ vinely permitted to do so. But even beyond that, when the Lord hung in physical and spiritual agony on the cross, His- life was not taken from Him. He did not die of weak­ ness or exhaustion. When the mom­ ent came toward which God’s plans and purposes had looked during time and eternity, the Son of God “cried with a loud voice” as He said, “Father, into Thy hands I commend My spirit,” and then of His own free will He “dismissed the spirit.” That is the literal meaning of the words “yielded up the ghost” (Matt. 50); the Greek verb “yielded shows an act of the will. We must remember that the Jesus of Nazareth, while a real man,, the only normal man that ever lived, was also the eternal Soil of God, and' God the Son. How could God die? This is part of the miracle. Death is the wages of sin; without sin, there could be no death. EBut Christ had never sinned; how then could He die? The question brings up to the very heart of the atonement, the re­ demption of sinners from the power and penalty of their sins, which Christ came from Heaven to earth to accomplish. He died because “His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, be­ ing dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed” (I peter 2:24.) Again, we read that "Ho (God) hath made Him (Christ) to be sin for us, Who (Christ) knew no sin; that we might be made the right­ eousness of God in Him” (2 Cor. 5: 21). Because Christ bore our sins, in the sense that He was identified with our sins, although Himself sin­ less, He died; He died voluntarily, taking the place of the sinner and. suffering the consequences of the sinner's sin which He made His1 own, in order that the sinner 'might es­ cape the consequences live. Let us make this is the gospel, the plan tho only way of life, plain to every member The late Dr. Geo. E. dent of William Jennings Byran Un­ iversity whose sudden death last No­ vember was, such a sorrow to the Christian world, had written shortly before he went Home a remarkable- study of "The Gospel in. the Cruci­ fixion” which was published in sev­ eral articles in the Sunday School Times,, and now may be had as a booklet from the Bible Institute C’OI- portage Association Chicago Guile’s study is so unusual and rich that is it quoted freely here brings out the fact, not often notic­ ed, that in every detail of the Gos­ pel accounts of the crucifixion "can be heard the heart-beat of the in­ finite God in His yearning over sin­ ful men and each -one in itself is a complete Gospel.” The crown of thorns was a sym­ bol of tho curse pronounced upon the earth because of man’s sin and now woven into a crown for God’s Son. He was crucified in. a place call- ed "The Place of a Skull” or Gol­ gotha, It was the wisdom of the world that crucified the Son of God, In whom “are hid all the treasures of wisdom ahd knowledge.” And her© is "the sinister pot where the extremes ^neet/’ skull place, the ut­ ter W human wisdom, Pilate #rote the inscription on the’ John Hazelwood closed, the of sin and truth, which of salvation, inescapably of our class.
