-SIMPLE PRAYER BEST. In these days when it is not unctmuwu to hear a minister praised because of his "beautiful prayers," by "beautiful" being meant orateness of phraseology, it is refreshing and timely that a clergyman has seen fit to declare that simple prayers, like that taught by the founder of Christianity, are best. Prayers hardly are a fit subject for studied oratory. Those that or me from the heart not infrequently are marked by unconscious eloquence. But It la contrary to the spirit of Christianity that one should compose supplications to the Almighty with regard to what men will think of them than to how the Deity will view them. And it is to be feared that it is the effect on the congregation rather than the effect on God which is in the minds of the authors of some of these elaborate prayers agaiDst which we are warned. Moreover, the effect of such prayers on the rongregation is likely- to he other than what the min-

The monthly reports gathered in this fashion cover fcereage, condition, yield, total production, stocks on farms, progress on farm work, wages, supply or deficiency of farm labor, fertilizers and seeds. Reports are made for about 60 crops, which represent about

There is a toucfe of the romantic in the dissemination cf thi3 news from Washington. Obviously it must be given out to all parts of the country at the same tiraa. Advance information would serve the interests of speculation. On the evening before crcp report day all telephones to the department are disconnected. The next morning all doors are locked and guards see to It that no one enters or leaves the building while the crop reporting board is in session. Then at exactly 2:15 in the sfternoon the telegraph wires into virtually every city and town in the United States are singing with the message of crop conditions. The tremendous importance of this work is little recognized by the average individual. It Is little known too. hew much patience and ingenuity were required to bring it to its present etate of perfection. For most of us it is sufficient to know that at the last met ting cf the general assembly of the International Institute of Agriculture at Rome, to which came delegates from all over the world, it was freely conceded that we had developed the most complete and accurate system of agricultural statistics ever devised.
seem to be other reasons why we should not give too cordial a welcome to those beings who are leaving their own planet with the intention of settling upon ours for such we are informed is their intention. In the first jlaco, there are said to be women and children only in the the parties leaving Mars, and there is evidence they have left their native planet following a great war between the sexes. Then, the women are said. to be the most beautiful creatures you can imagine and, although small in stature, will make our own women appear anything but handsome, indicating that besides the danger of leaving an entire planet to be run by men alone, there is another danger to be considered.
THE PUBLIC does not object to paying high prices for baseball players, although it will have to foot the bills.
THE UNEMPLOYMENT situation might not be so serious if persons who do not want to work could be
separated from the others. .

CHATS WITH YOUR GAS MAN Your gas bills should be thiift bills. Plan your cooking so as to make one burner or one oven cook more than one article of food at the same time. Vv'hile the meat is roasting in the oven, for example, you may not only bake other things, but use the floor space of the oven to boil vegetables. Also give thought to the selection of proper utensils. You know how important it is not to have more heat applied to a utensil than it can absorb at once. Flat bottom utensils with a base broader than the gas flame are fuel savers. If pots and pans discolor above the water mark on the inside, the reason is that you have tried to bring the water to a boil too quickly by using too large a burner or too ruuchc flame. Use the burner that is just a little smaller than the utensil so that the gas flame does not overlap the sides. Northern Indiana Gas & Electric Co.
