An Important Matter.

How you love God, your family and your friends is a very important matter. The man who 1* very careful not to say or do that which makes his wife unhappy has a very rood way Of showing his love. And the wife of such a husband cannot be too particular concerning how she treats him.

To become like Christ and so share tn His glorious life may mean nothing at all to us, or it may be just everything. It may be to us more than pleasures, more than friends, more than say other ambition, more than health or long life. ▲ 3-Mne classified ad in The Republican eostfc only 25 cents tor a week’s Insertion in the Dally and BsmPWeekTy.

Crop Improvement

Aak your ConjreMmanit vonr Canary Finn B«rran it in the Budget. It'e up to YOU.

COUNTY PROGRAM L CROP IMPROVEMENT A Practical Demonstration' and Discusslon of How to Establish a Single Variety of Each Kind of Grain Best Adapted to the Soil and Climate of the County. It has been demonstrated a great manj times that unless a man actually does things for himself that it will not do a great deal of good merely to tell him or have him read about how to do it, This actual demonstration Is the main recommendation of the Crop Improvement Committee working through the county farm buret us to be added to the old idea of institute lecturing which is all very well in its way, but which is gradually being set aside for practical demcnstration by the fanner himself. The program suggested for the next few weeks before seeding time is somewhat as follows. A Single Variety. I. The best type of corn, oats, barley and wheat adapted to the soil and. climate of the county. Demonstra-; tions and discussions led by the State Experiment Station. If it is found impossible to securo an agronomy pro-' lessor, insist that he send you sampies of the grain which he recoin--mends for your territory and have the subject led by the best grain growers in your section as to the merits of this type, so that all will agree that preferably one type may be selected.! to be grown by all, so that ultimately 1 it may be had in carloads free from ; mixtures and weed seeds. Germination Tests. 11. —Germination tests with Blotter i and Rag Doll testers. Demonstra-1; tions and discussions led by the sup-i erintendent of the county schools, by 1 members of the Boys’ Corn Club or! by the seed selection committee which I is established under the farm bu-| reau. This demonstration should be started a week before the meeting, and samples of fair types of every , kind of grain be shown actually ger- ' minated in the Blotting-paper, Rag Doll or Germination Box testers. In this connection, the committee should, be enlarged so that every school dia trict is taken care of, so that a dem - onstratlon may be made for every farmer, a certificate being given himi showing the seed condition of his' grain, and a tabulation made from ev-> ery school district and published in the county newspapers, just prior to-1 the date vs a meeting to be held ; later on. ? The Crop Improvement of Chicago will supply the blank cer- i tifleates free and will also furnish ' Blotters and Rag Dolls at cost. If you prefer to make your own testers, either blotter or cloth, they will give. you careful Abdicate Foul Seeds. 111. —Purity tests. The mixed con-; dition of all our grains is something , deplorable and it will be Impossible'-; to grow thoroughbred seeds until i weeds and mixtures are eliminated. ' There is a good laboratory at your agricultural college, and if you will ; write the dean he will no doubt send j some one to demonstrate a practical' method of selecting a pure type and he. will also tell you how to combat dangerous weeds. ’ Fanning the Seed Grains. t IV. —Fanning and cleaning of seeds. : The manufacturers of fanning and grading machinery are generally willing, through their local agents, to give practical demonstrations to show how to fan and re-fan, until everything is removed from your seed grain ' except the plumpest and most robust seeds. This can often be done in the nature of a contest, and the work , should be done by spectators ratherthan experts. You should have eaefii member bring a sack of grain, and a grain show so arranged would add toi the interest Grain Diseases. V. —The treatment of grain diseases, especially smut Demonstrations with '; formaldehyde by sprinkling, by dipping or by machines, also hot water treatment, for smut not affected by formaldehyde. Ask the dean of your' college to send some one who will* demonstrate this and show the im- ‘ portance of doing it properly. Selling on Its Merits. VI. Demonstrations by your state department showing the advantages of selling your surplus grain by grading on its merits. This subject should be followed by a discussion of how to> keep from mixing all kinds of grain, good, bad and indifferent, into the same bin at the elevator. This can be accomplished by your seed committee and a plan made whereby each differ-' ent grade may he marketed systematically, so that inferior grades may not be mixed in. It is obvious that tills work cannot be done at the latest minute when there is a line of urgent drivers waiting to dump at the elevator. The seed committee should arrange this delivery to the elevator soj that every man would know at what time his particular kind of grain is to > be shipped.

A balanced ration means a balance on the right side of the ledger. Clover, cattle and corn silage make* a good combination. , Good silage tn winter and goodi pasture in summer make green feed the year round.—G R. BJljm,

Short Sermons FOR A Sunday Holf Hour

PREACH THE CROSS. BY THE REV. T. L. CUYLER, D. D. 1 Cor. xv:3: Christ died for our sins according .to the Scriptures. “First of all,” wrote Paul to the Church of Corinth, “I delivered unto you that Christ died for our sins.” The “first of all” does not refer to priority of time; for Paul had sounded the Gospel-trump through the cities of Asia Minor, and under the shadow of Mount Lebanon, before he ever struck its key-note amid the voluptuous idolaters of Corinth. But it means that as the principal thing, he preached the Cross of the crucified Son of God. Whatever else dame second, this always came first; whatever else he omitted, he never omitted the very core and marrow of the Gospel of salvation. The atonement is the cardinal doctrine of the Bible. Other religious systems make prominent the character of. their divinities, or the life of their foundars, or some sacred rites of worship. But the core of Christianity is the sacrificial death of its Divine Founder. The Bible does not underrate Christian ethics, or the spotless example of Jesus; but the atonement transcends all other truths in sublimity and saving power. If I could deliver but one discourse to a congregation composed of all the nations of the globe, this, should be my text: “Christ Jesus died for our sins.” This is the text that has rung round the world wherever pure Christianity has found a voice. This la the truth that shook pagan Rome, and confounded human philosophers; and it is the truth that has lain warmest and closest to the Christians’ heart in every age of the Church. The touchstone of every minister is this, Does the man preach Christ and Him crucified? Wherever the highest spiritual power is developed from a pulpit, wherever sin is most fearlessly assailed, wherever sinners are awakened and most thoroughly converted, wherever the richest outpourings of the Holy Spirit have been enjoyed, there has been commonly the most faithful preaching of the guilt jf human sin, and of salvation only through the atoning blood. It is the imperative duty of every ambassador of God to thunder against injustice, and intemperance, and licentiousness, and fraud, and hyprocisy, and covetousness, and every form of impiety; but the true vantage ground from which to assail them is beside that Cross, where Jeeus died to condemn all sin, and to save the sinner. If I were a member of a church seeking for a pastor, my first question would be, Does he make foremost the atoning blood of Jesus Christ? No erudition, or eloquence, or “advanced thought," can Supply the lack of this one thing needful. From the most brilliant or erudite discourse that has no Christ in it, the hungry, unsatisfied believer comes away complaining. He has taken away my Lord, and I know not where he has laid Him! The only theory of the atonement that meets the tremendous necessities of a world lying in wickedness, or the mighty demand of the New Testament Gospel, is this plain, simple line, “Christ Jesus died for our sins." The three great ideas compressed into this line are substitution, sacrifice, salvation. Christ Jesus became our substitute, and suffered for us. Christ became our sacrifice, and laid down His fife to take away our guilt Christ secures eternal life to every true believer and faithful follower. In these three points the vast body of regenerated believers agree and if the much prayed for unification of all Christian denominations ever comes, it will crystallze around the coretruttf of the Cross. It will be a union in Christ for a world without Christ. The heart of God’s church has ever held to this as the heart of all Christian theology, “Christ Jesus died tor our sins!” If the greatest of all human preachers made this the foremost text of his wonderful ministry, then, my dear brother, you have but to plant your pulpit in full view of the Cross, and make every line of your labors converge towards "Christ and Him oroettted.”

Frequent Prayer.

Prayer Is the key to open the day, and the bolt to shut in the night But as the clouds drop the early dew and the evening dew upon the grass, yet it would not spring and grow green by that constant and double falling of the dew unless some great shower at certain seasons did supply the rest; so the customary devotion of prayer twice a day is the falling of the early and latter dew. But If you will increase and flourish m works of grace empty the great clouds sometimes, and let them fall in a-shower of prayer. Choose out seasons when prayer shall overflow like Jordan in time of harvest—Bishop ffaylor.

Things New and Old.

When the church stops her attempts Io bring forth things now and old, rips will die—Rev. Wi’Uam H. Day. Sympathy glows and throbs and melts the generation and achieves the MW . Bse. N. Dwight HUMa.

ENDORSED AT HOME.

Such Proof at This Should Convince Any Rensselaer Citizen. The public endorsement of a local citizen is the best proof that can be produced. None better, none stronger can be had. When a man comes forward and testifies to his fellow-citizens, addresses his friends and neighbors, you may be sure he is thoroughly convinced or he would not do so. Telling one’s experience when it is for the public good'is an act of kindness that should be appreciated. The following statement given by a resident of Rensselaer adds one more to the many cases of Home Endorsement which are being published about Doan’s Kidney Pills. Read it. William Clift, 528 College St., Rensselaer, Ind, says: "I had kidney bladder trouble and my back ached severely. I didn’t sleep well and was annoyed by a too frequent desire to pass the kidney secretions. I took doctors’ medicine and remedies of various kinds, but found no relief until I used Doan’s Kidney Pills. Since then my back hasn’t troubled me and I have <felt better in every way. It gives me great pleasure to endorse Doan’s Kidney Pills.” . ’ r . Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a~ kidney remedyget Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Clift had.
