LESSON FOR JUNE 1st, 1930 Lesson Topic — Contrast Between Faithfulness and SIothfulness, Lesson Passage—Matthew 25:14-30. Golden Text—Matthew 2,5:21. An old legend pictures a meeting between the angel Gabriel and Jesu on his return from earth to heaven Gabriel asks Jesus how his work i to be carried on down on earth no that he has left it. "I left it in the hands of my fol lowers." "But supposing they fai you." "I have Tic) other plan tha that one should tell another and an other, another." "But supposing on fails to tell another." "I have mad no provision for failure," Christ r plied. In to -day's lesson we have Chris continuing His parabolic teachin about His kingdom. He likens it t "a man travelling into a far countr who called his servants and delivere unto them ie, goods." The trvtler is Christ and the ser vents are Christians. St. Paul ofte calls Himself a servant of Jesu Christ. When Jesus went to heave he was as a man travelling into a fa country; his purpose was to be awa a great while. He, who is the abso lute owner of all persons and thing "when he ascended up on high gav gifts unto men" (Eph. 4:8). He gave talents; a talent of silve i•4 reckoned to be equal in our mone to over $1,500; so we see that Cl;rist' gifts are rich and valuable. He gave to some more, to other less; to one five talents, to another two, to another one, to every man acg carding to his several ability. When the Master of the househol had thus settled his affairs, h straightway took his journey. Two of the servants did well. They - were diligent and faithful, applying themselves to their business as soon as their piaster left them. They- wereatradesmen, who having chosen their trade and taken pains to Learn it, bent all their energies to make it successful. They were successful ; they doubled their stock; he that had five talents soon made them other five and he that had two gained two other talents. The third did nothing with his tai ent: he didn't waste it or lose it bu he hid it. Had it been his own he would have been free to have done with it as he pleased. Hle was a steward and therefore accountable to his master, and the day of reckoning came at last, In the accounting he that had but two talents gave his account as cheer- fully as he who had five and the 111213 - ter gave each the .same commenda- tion: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things; enter thou into the joy, of thy Lord." Not .only did he commend them but he re- warded them. They were to be shar- ers of his joy—the joy that is spoken of as being that towards which he looked when he gave his life for sin- ners—"Who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despis- ing the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God" (Hebrew 12:2). In the account of the slothful ser- vant we see that the smallness of his receiving did not excuse him from a reckoning. He came to the account- ing with considerable assurance say- ing, "If I have not made it more, as the others have done, yet this I can say, I have not made it less." He did not stop with that but cast the blame for his slothfulness on the Master. "Lord, I knew that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou hast not sawn, and gathering when,: thou hast not strawed; and I was afraid. and went and hid thy talent in the earth; so, there thou hast that is thine." In these words is seen the spirit of a slave; he had a false no- tion of the Master. Hard thoughts of God drive us from, and cramp us in his service. In Christ's answer the man is con- "'victed of slothfulness and is deprived of what was given to him. That is his punishment, and his doom is, to he cast into outer darkness, out from the light of heaven, out from the joy of the Lord, into which the faithful servants were admitted. s s L'S' e e- Y, d 11 s n y s, e r s d e t WORLD MISSIONS The Hammer of Jeremiah. Some time ago a writer in The In- dependent gave an account of a re- vival meeting in a colored church which she attended with five other Suinday school teachers. Brother Jonah Watkins, a white -wooled, bent - backed man of seventy, was called upon to pray. He prayed, she says, as though his lips had indeed been touched by a live coal from God's own altar. "0 Lord," he prayed, "Thou knowest dis .people. Here we art lbe- fo' thee, down on our marrerbo ens in de lowlands of sorrow. Raise us up, deah Lord, an' stan' us upon our feet upon de mountain tops of glory. An' de sinnas of dis congregation, deah Lord, smite 'em wid de hammah of Jeremiah." "I heard no more," says the writer. Miss La Mance. "The hammer of Jeremiah — what was it? I had read the Prophet Jeremiah through and through, but never a syllable had I caught about Jeremiah's ham- mer. What did this bent -backed col- ored man know about Jeremiah that the wise teachers of the law had over- looked? The question was broached en the homeward walk.

One by one, as we reached the twenty-ninth verse of the twenty-third chapter, we found what we were after. "Is.notpmy word like as fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?" Jere- miah's hammer was. God's word, which was able to break down the flinty resistance of the indifferent, soul. Could Scripture reference' have been more applicable?

From the Dominion Seed Branch comes one of the most interesting re- ports of field crop development in 1930, which is that the prairie prov- inces are sowing very much larger quantities of sweet clover seed this year than ever before. The Branch reports indicate a definite trend in the direction of increasing the pro- portion of forage crops throughout the West, and the beet sugar manu- facturers are distributing sweet clov- er seed to beet growers for the pur- pose of maintaining and improving beet production. Saskatchewan is calling for larger quantities of sweet clover seed, which will probably be supplied from Eastern Canada, and Manitoba is also increasing the area of sweet clover seeded. As a crop sweet clover costs less to produce thdn some,of the other legumes, it is a practically sure crop, it has a'ery high fertilizer value, and it can be introduced into a system of grain farming with particular ease: These are all factors which contribute to its growing popularity as a crop. Find Poultry Pay. The importance of live stock in the establishment of a sound agriculture has long been recognized, and many farm families in Western Canada are beginning to realize the lesson already learned in the East, that live stock is too important a farm adjunct to be overlooked. They are *Iso (beginning to realize the important part poultry plays in the general scheme of farm revenues. F. C. Elford, Dominion Poultry Husbandman, who has just returned from a trip through the `West reports that many farmers are increasing their poultry flocks this year, and that the demand for certi- fied hatchery chicks has assumed un- equalled proportions. Following the drought of last year and the almost complete crop failure in many sec- tions, \hundreds of farm families frankly admit that had it not been for the cash coming in from eggs and poultry they would not have been able to pull through. - Why Pullet's Don't Pay. One significant fact in the egg mar- ket reports this spring is the marked falling off in egg production. Asked for the reason for this the Dominion Poultry Husbandman states that the extreme dry weather of last year was the cause. "The condition is general throughout Western Canada and to a certain extent in the East," die states, "and the fact is, that owing to the unusually dry season chicks last year matured as laying pullets 11MPLE ActuallySee'' i emlia fish inesendedirilquickby"goetba1 lva' you can actually pee them dry .

Wool Demand Strengthens, While it is a little early in the sea- son as yet to forecast, prices for the 1930 wool clip, the Dominion Live Stock Branch reports that wool pric- es havie sagged consistently to lower levels since January 1st, and present price indications are that local buyers will be offering areurel--8 to 10 cents per pound for ungraded weals. With prevailing price levels mill buyers show an inclination to operate on a more extensive scale and a larg- er volume of wool appears to be mov- ing into the mills than for several months .past. The 1930 clip of Can- adian graded wools will not be avail- able in any large quantities until the latter part of 'May or early in June, and it is of possible as yet to indi- cate what -prices will be paid for these. New Use for Wheat. With the present uncertainty which prevails in the wheat market the Do- minion Department of Agriculture finds that farmers are paying more attention to the marketing of grain crops through live stock.Some im- portant and interesting results have come to light, and not the, least inter- esting is the experience of an Alber- ta farmer who had a light crop which he could not sell at the elevator. He had a flock of poultry, and started feeding the wheat to them and mar- keting it in the form of eggs through the local egg pool. When the winter was over he figured up his costs and found that he had sold the wheat thus fed at an average price of $5 per bushel, Another western farmer with a modest flock of 150 birds kept his family throughout the winter on the income from the eggs, and he states that his gross income for the winter from, the flock averaged $200 per month. Government Farms are Busy. An appreciation of the range and extent of applied agricultural research carried out by the Experimental farms and stations of the Dominion Depart- ment of Agriculture throughout Can- ada is afforded :by the report of the Director, Dr. E. S. Archibald. At the time the report was prepared there were 2,453 active experimental pro- jects in operation, ranging in applica- tion from "Agrostology" to "Tobac- co." Horticulture heads the Iisc with a total of 641 active experimental pro- jects; then in order come, animal hus- bandry, 421; botany, 295; field hus- bandry, 282; poultry husbandry, 168; agrostology, 149; cereals, 124; chem- istry, 105; illustration stations, 76; 'obacco, 69; bees; 63, and pathology, 25. CANADIAN GARDEN SERVICE Gardening With Annuals. Even the man who expects to move next year and every year can make a wonderful showing with annual flowers. Instead of permanent vines for his walls, he will use climbing nasturtiums, hops, sweet peas, morn- ing glories, or scarlet runner bean, these accomplishing in a few weeks what the perennial takes several years to do. In the place of shrub - °y, he wig use clumps irf flowers with cosmos,. sunfiowems, u#•�$$d: s6�milar tall plants at the 'back, African, mlari- golds, phlox, anti large zinnias when a 'medium height is required, and of • course any one of a hundred of the smaller flowers in the place of low -1 growing shrub. The taller growing annuals, many of which like the cas- tor oil bean reach a height of six feet, can be used for standing screens. In practically all the sued catalogues one will And the heights of the plants given as well as the periods of blopm- ing, and it is a simple matter with this information at hand for the rentex to lay out a garden to suit his particular needs. In fact, when we overcome some obstacle like annual moiving, there is really more satis- faction in gardening than where the whole thing is more cut and dried. Seed. Although the cast of the seed is of trivial importance in developing a vegetable or fiower garden, at the same time our entire success depends absolutely on what we sow. Many people when they grow a particularly fine flower or an excellent vegetable say to themselves, "I will save some seed from that plant and sow it next year." Results of such a course are almost invariably disappointing, as cne forgets that many elements enter into seed selection which the ordinary man does not take into consideration. Bees and other insects, for instance., mix the pollen on the flowers indis- criminately, so that instead of get- ting a beautiful bronze zinnia next year from a parent plant with flowers of this, kind, a washed-out white or some other inferior ,specimen is li- able to result 'because the bees have not 'been the same respecter of beau • ty as the owner. Moreover, when we, allow our beautiful flowers to go to seed, they immediately stop blooming, so that we have to decide very early in the season, because late saved seed will produce lateeblooming flowers, whether we are going to grow blooms or seed. In the vegetable garden, the first -matured are the ones sought af- ter, and invariably the man who saves his seed does so from the later speci- mens as he wants to consume the first. This will give him later vege- tables next year, even assuming that he has gone to all the trouble to screen the :bloom on hisvegetables and mix the pollen .by hand. On the ordinary seed farm, flowers and veg- etables are grown in great blocks so that varieties and types and colors cannot get hopelessly mixed. Seed is the foundation of all good gardens, and to protect ourselves we must make sure that the supply we secure. is absolutely the best and, of equal importance, that it is ,partuvcularly adapted to Canadian conditions. Window Boxes and Hanging Pots. It is now time to think of the win- dow boxes and hanging pots with which we will adorn our verandas and house fronts this summer. There are two or three essentials here. The box or pot must be strong and firmly at- tached because, it is going to be heavy. Then too there must be very rich soil, with plenty of fertilizer, as this sort of gardening is a very intensive af- fair. Of equal importance is mois• ture, and this must be provided. daily, and sometimes twice a day, as the evaporation, for all sides. of the box He dearly loved a rich titbit. The - spirit was willing, but the flesh was weak. - Whenever he ate anything rich, his boys used to say, " Poor dad, he will pay the penalty to -morrow." Read the sequel in his own words 1 " Since taking the regular dose of Kruschen Salts it is quite different, and my boys enjoy themselves seeing me. eat, what 1 dare not touch before. My • eldest son was the same, but since he has' taken Kruschen Salts he can eat and enjoy whatever is put in front of • him." Modern artificial conditions, errors of diet, overwork, lack of exercise, and so on, are bound to have injurious effects in the long run providing due precaution is not taken. Kruschen Salts should be your safe. guard. Besides cleansing the body of impurities gently, surely and painlessly, . they possess a vital power of giving new life and vitality to the countless millions: of cells of which every body is composed. That is why physicians never hesitate to recommend Kruschen Salts. . or pot are exposed to the air, is ex- ceedingly rapid. Now that we have these points in mind, we can go a- head. The window -box should be as long as the window and should be supported and arranged so that the top of it is almost flush with the win- dow -sill, Otherwite, the foliage of the plants will soon fill up Most of the window. There must be holes in the bottom of box and pot to provide drainage, and also a layer of gravel, cinders, broken crockery or similar material for the same purpose. If one can secure a supply of well -rotted manure, put this in next, and finish with a top layer of rich soil. If there is no manure, use a fairly heavy ap- plication of a good garden fevtilizerc and repeat everiy month. The 'box.,. which should be at least seven inchea. deep and from eight to ten inches wide at the top, should be filled to within half an inch of the top. Along• the front put in trailing nasturtiums,. German ivy, lobelia, alyssum and, similar plantswith petunias, agerat- ums, begonias, ferns, geraniums and any other plants especially recom- mended for this purpose farther back, Shelter from the sun for a day or two until the plants get estab- lished.
