If this is aeglected now. remarks Farm and home, you may forget all about It unJll you want to use it. and then you will be In a hole. A few hours' work at odd times will have all the tools ready for use when

Worship (Gen. 8:20 22 . The first act of N'oah was an act of worship and" religion. He expressed his gratitude, his faith, his consciousness of sin. and the infinite love of God which had saved him. A Divine Promise in the Heavens (Gen. 9:8-17). God averted another fear that the deluge might be repeated: a fear which would haunt the early race at every coming of the fruit giving rain, a fear that would Interfere not only with comfort, but with

progress. The Rainbow Token --"That gracious thing made up of tears and light." Coleridge. The rainbow as a sign of God's promise In peculiarly appropriate and beautiful. (1) It la formed on the rain itself, the rain which produced the flood. (2) "After the appearance of an entire rainbow, as a rule, no rain of long duration follows.'' Indeed, the rainbow Is a proof that the storm is partial, not covering the whole sky. The sun of God's mercy is shining on the rain. (3) The darker the storm, the brighter ths rainbow. (-JJ "As it lights up the dark ground that just before was discharging itself in flashes of lightning. It gives us an idea of the victory of Qod'l love over the black and fbrv

wrath." Delitzsch. (I) "It is just in its conformity to natural law that th rainbow Is n pledge that the order of nature shall continue." Denio. (6) If an be seen everywhere in all parts of the earth; It is all embracing. It

shines on the evil and on the good, with Its rays of warning and of hope.

(7) It is very beautiful and attractive God gives a winning beauty to his angels, to his messengers of mercy, and to his promises, in order to attract men and show his love. (9) It forms n arch, wide as the storm, and binding earth and heaven, God and man. tcigeth'-r In peace. There can be no -alnbow without the sun. Practical Points. God punishes men not because 6 hates them, but because he loves them Sin Is a far greater evil than punishment The flood that destroyed most of the people was the real salvation of the human race.

meal was made With corn at 21c a bushel It would be an even thing so far as the cost of gain Is concerned, whemer corn be fed alone or with oil meal at $30 per ton. In these tests, linseed oil meal proved to be better than wheat middlings as a food to use with corn. The oil meal ration was so much more palatable than the middlings, that much more of It was eaten daily. They made more rapid gains and seemed to thrive better upon this feed To be equal to oil meal at $30 per ton. middlings would have to be bought at from $14 to $15 per ton. As oil meal is usually cheaper than $30 in Missouri and middlings worth $15 or more, these tests show that linseed oil meal Is one of the best feeds to use with corn.

It Should Prove the Best Kind of Feed When Warm. There Is an impression among some farmers that the feeding of skim milk warm from the separator Is injurious to pigs Prof William Ieitrich. of the Illinois experimental station, writing on this matter, aays that there is no reason why it should cause troub since warm milk is the nstural I of pigs. It msy be that the scouring ead running down In flesh that is sometimes observed Is caused by sadden changes in feed: such as. for in stance, change from cold sour skim milk to warm fresh skim milk The skim milk in either form Is good feed, but it will not do to chsnge from one to the other very suddenly. Another cause of the trouble may be that the pigs are being fed too much Snac times people think that when the cream Is taken out of the milk there Is not much left thst is of any value and young animals sre fed very l.ber-
