ANALYSIS
I. JESUS IN RELATION 40 JOHN, 2-6,
IF. JESUS IN RELATION TO TIIE WORLD,
25-30,
INTRODUCTION—On the first reading
of Matthew, -one might think that go -
Sus spoke very little about himself as
the Saviour, tend that in this way it
Was very different from the Gospel of
John, where there are lnany.passages
which refer to himself, such as "I•am
the Good Shepherd," 'l5•am the True
Vine," However, ia more careful read-
ing of the synoptists reveals the fact
that behind the apparently impersonal
narrative there is a ear -background
of self-consciousness. It would be an
interesting study to pick ant the pass-
ages in Matthew, such as' 5: 22; 12:
8, where the'connection of Jesus with
the kingdom is definitely expressed:
1. TESUS IN RELATION TO JOHN, 2-6.
V. 2, The relation of Jesus to John
the Baptist is very instructive. There
are few/ finer instnnees of• self-efface-
ment and self-sacrifice than that illus-
Crated by John the Baptist as he eahn-
ly. accepts the place,.of insignificance.
"He 'must increase, ' et I must de-
crease." Nor is there any mere chiv-
alrousdefence •of a friend than that
•which Jesus nn,kes of John, where be
had no other to speak well of him.
John had leen imprisoned by Herod
Antipas in the castle of Machaerue.
east of the Dead Sea. As he pondered
in these dull cells on the course ef.
events, his mind became troubled, and
he began to despair about the coining
of the. kingdom. With what noun-
once-and
ssur-ance and enthusiasm had he predieted
the early zoning of the Messiah; .but
now there is nothing to justify his
hopes. Like Elijah and many ether
great reformers, John is now passing
into 'the time of despondency. It was
the slough of 'despond, It i, as out of
this mood that the question now put
to Jesus arose.
• V. 3. Jesus replied by sending back
a message on the progress th; is be-
ing made. Things are really Bhang-
' ing, since the classes o ninth neglect-
ed by the world' are now receiving :cn-
eideration. We should read r Ike 4:
15, in which we find that Ji..t s

from Isaiah, chap. '31, which es rime h
like these verses,
Evidently the parts of the P oonet
which most attracted Jesus those that
foretold the social reconstruction cif
the world, and the conquest of evil and
wrong and .sorrow. llis heart was
tiled with pity for all who were needy
,rid neglected, In fact, there was ro-
iling more distinctive of Jesus than
his deep concern for -the poor. Now he

II. eons IN RELATION 'TO THE WORL7,
25-30.
V, 25. We discover, on turning; to
Luke 10.: 21, that these words were
spoken at the time of the return of
the seventy from their mission. In
their work these disciples had found
that their cor,verts did not c.•uie from
the rich and learned classes, but frons
the common folk. This may have caus-
ed them some surprise, and they may
have questioned jesus about it. He
tells, then: not to be silrpriscd. This
is the will of the Father., and Jesus
ii glad that it is so. The wise and
- learned here are the Scribes and Phar-
isees, who, instead of aceepting Je ne,
only tried to put otumblint olocl.s in

times, when a vassal if he did not go

the number of 4,508,Set reported into
Canada last year for touring purposes,
it has been announced by the Hon. W.
D. Euler, Minister of National Re-
venue. This was an increase of 863,-
358 car's over 1928. Every province
enjoyed a substantial growth in tour-
ist trams.
A feature of the report is the In-
crease of over 150,000 in the number
of ears which remained in Canada for
some considerable time. Last year
1,099,961 foreign cars entered Canada
under sixty-day permits and 1,204
others same in for longer periods than
that. The remainder of the 4,508,000
came in for a period not exceeding
twenty-four hours. In 1928 the num-
ber of cars which came in under the

Farm Notes
Cheese Production Decreased
Last Year
•Cleese made in thie eountt'y has
shown steady improvement year by
year sinte 1893, when grading began.
Seven years ago only 78% of the
cheese made was good enough -to go
into the Srst grade. ' Of the,1929 yield
over 93% was of the that class
These figures were,,b.j-ouglat out by
Mr. Joseph Burgeon Chief of the Di -
.vision of Dairy Produce in the De-
part: tent of Agriculture at Ottawa,
before the Eaetel'n Ontario Dairy-
men's Association.
The season was narked particular -
1Y. to Ontario snit ,Quebec with a dee
creased production Owing to the low
yield of intik due ter poor pasture and
shortage of water •consequent upon
continued dry weather. The cheese
graded for the year 1928 shoeved a de-
crease of 293,000 boxes or about 18%.
Bloat of this decrease-eccnrt'ed .after
the beginning of 'August and in-
creased month by month. In the pro-
vince of Ontario, where there are 730
factories in operation, the first grade.
amounted to 95,5% of the whole,
which was intensely gratifying. Re.
ferning to this situation Mr. Burgess
maintained that the co-operation of
the producers with the makers was
an important factor in this happy re-
sult. Mr. Burgess stressed the im-
portance of well built curing rooms.
He :roferrod to the excellence of the
curing room at the Cloverdale factory
in :Prince Edward County, which has
the largest output "of any factory in,
the province east of Toronto. The
construction of this curing room, Mr.
Burgess stated, seems to be the best
that could be secured and cost some-
thing over 82000. The saving from
the controlled temperature in this
rooni is estimated to have been fully
91000 as a result of the saving in,
shrinkage and the better quality of
the cheese turned out. Mr. Burgess
strongly recommends cheese factory
owners to see to it that they have
the proper curing "rooms.

Cleaning Up Canadian Herds
Tremendous strides have been made
in Canada towards the eradication of
tuberculosis in cattle. Fifteen years
ago the Department of Agriculture at
Ottawa began the testing of cattle as.
the beginning of a policy ethich has so
developed as have removed thous-
ands of diseased animals from the
farms throughout the country,
A booklet recently issued by the De-
partment of Agriculture at Ottawa,
bearing the title "Bovine Tubercul-
osis," describes the main plans that
are pinned by the Health of Animals
Branch.
By the Accredited Ilerd plan, when
a herd has passed two annual or three
semiannual tests without a reactor,
the herd is designated a Tuberculosis
Free Accredited Herd, This plan is
confined to herds that are wholly or
in part purebred animals.
In defining the Restricted Area Plan
the leaflet states that when two-thirds
of the cattle owners of arc efinite area
have signed a petition for the estab-
lishment of a restricted area, and the
petition has reached the Minister of
Agriculture at Ottawa, through the
Minister of Agriculture of the pro-
vinces interested, testing and cleaning
up is undertaken.

Aliens Dominating
Alberta Oil Field
British Public 'Urged by
Y
Geologist to Support
Development
London—In a paper read at the In-
stitution of Petroleum Technologists,.
E A. Cunningham Craig, an English
geologist well-known in Western Can-
ada, scored the apathy of British caps
talists in allowing an important oil-
field to pass under,, control of areas.
Mr. Craig sounded an alarm in the,
following words:
"It would be difficult now for a
British 'company to acquire any large
interest in the most promising Al-
berta oil areas without paying high
prices. What is required no v is the
formation of a few large and well -or-
ganized companies, managed in Can-
ada by men with local knowledge and
supported finam:tally from Britain. It
is not in the best interests of the Brit-
ish Commonwealth the, tthe control of
these new oilfields should fall into
alien hands.
"That danger is fully realized by
Canadians. There is a greater work
to be done and it is little less than
disgraceful that the Brother Country
is taking so little part in this import-
ant development."
Peace on Paper
London. — The Loudon Sunday
Grahle publishes the following vigor-
ous editorial on the Naval Conference:
Over 2,000 treaties have been register-
ed with the League of Nations since
the end of the war.. These i:cltule the
famous Kellogg Pact, which "outlaws"
war by words. We have, therefore,
reached a point when it can be shown,
on paper, that war on a large scale is
impossible. Does anybody believe it?
We have had an example of loose
and dangerous thinking in the state-
ment by Mr. Alexander, First Lord of
the. Admiralty, about British cruiser
strength. We find from this that the
Admiralty have been told to reconcile
our defence needs to "the improved
world political relationsphips," and in
effect to provide for the defence of the
Empire not in the world as it is, but
In the unreal world of possible, prob-
able, profound pease existing in the
imagination tf politicians. Even so,
the First Lord admits that "if unhap-
pily the international horizon should
become in the future lees unclouded
than it is to -day,' the Board will have
to revise :heir position.
In other words, they": ill have to pro-
vide ships and men when the emer-
gency is open us. As if ships and men
could be improvised ,in emergency!
This will not do. We are now going
to endanger our' existence on the as-
surance of political. persons that war
is impossible. We must preserve a
sufficient cruiser strength for all rea-
sonable emergencies.

Canadian Engineer
Backs Waterway
Montreal,—Geo. C. McDonald, in his
retiring address as president of the
Montreal Board of Trade,: declared
that laic viewwas that the St.
Lawrence Deep Waterways scheme
should he proceeded with as soon as
economic conditions warranted; and
that the whole cost of the project
should not be saddled on power de-
velopments, but should be shared by
navigation interests oi' whatever in-
terests would be benefitted.
"It hardly seems reasonable to Op-
pose," said Mi. McDonald, "that after
developing our waterway system from
the time canoes were portaged over
the rapids to the present 14 -foot chan-
nel, we
han-nel,'we are going to stand still at this
stage of history and say that we shall
not dig any deeper.
"Our problem," said Mr. McDonald,
"is to find out, if we can, 'who is go-
ing to benefit, and let them pay. If
it is the European buyer, the traffic
should be made to pay, that is by tolls
on shipping, as in case of the Panama
Canal, If it is the citizens of the
United States and Canada, it will be
necessary :to put it on `a- business
basis, estimate the respective propor-
tions, and pay accordingly."
Further in his remarks, Mr. Mc-
Donald -said: nniet conclusion is that
the power should bear only its oivn
burden of cost and that any further
navigation development determined:
upon should be pain for by whichever
of two ways might he found more suit-
able
"1. By the traffic as is done in the
Panama Canal, or --
"2. By the taxpayers generally of

Wheat Rust Alone Costs
$25,000,000
r inaan s annual loss tbrough plant
diseases is more than three times the
value of the Dominion's mineral out-
put , and more that four times the
value of the output of fisheries. H, T.
Guseow, Dominion botanist, stated in
a lecture under the auspices of the
McG311 chapter of the Sigma XI,
Society in the Biologic•!: Building, on
"Warfare with Plant Disease in Can-
ada,"
Wheat rust alone caused a loss of
some 825,000,000 yearly, the greatest
amount being in 191e, when an esti-
mated loss of $200,000,000 was borne
by western wheat growers, Mr. Gus -
sow said in dealing with the economic
importance of plant disease.
It was found that the spores which
infect the wheat travel by air, germ
particles being collected • by an air-
plane at a height of 8,000 feet, The
great movement of the spores is
northwards from nited States, where
wheat maturing earlier givee rise to
a great number of black rust spores,
which move north to attack Canadian
cereals,
It was impossible to erect a barrier
against these, so that efforts have
been turned to the production of rust-
reeisting varieties of wheat, of wbieh
seme four have been discovered,
though yielding a lesser quantity of
cereal. Mr. Gussow was optimistic
