And as Jesus was "going up, to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples apart, and on the way he said unto them, 18, Behold): wé go up to Jerusalem; and Son:of man shall be delivered unto tho chief priests and scribes; and they shall condemn him to death,: 19. and shall deliver him. unto the -Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucity: and the third day he shall be raised up. Note the min. ute details which the Lord here foretells regarding his death. Jé- sus knew _he came to dle for our' sins, and he never attempted to ¢s- cape the awful sufferings and the shameful gloffous purpose involved. . But whenever our Lord speaks of his death; ho algo speaks of his resur- ¢ rection. He did hot contemplate the: horror of 'the ons without drawing' "encouragement from . his confid- ence in the other. ke Two Came Asking Favors 20.

COL UM MI N RAISE MORE LIVESTOCK. Increased livestock productidn in 'wartime was recommended by Hon. P. M. Dewan, Ontario min- ister of agriculture, in an address to 760 students taking short cours. es of study at-the Ontario Agri. cultural College. "I venture the statement that whether or not a farmer succeeds over the next decade will depend almost exclusively on the farm set- up or program. which he adopts and develops during the next two years," Mr. Dewan said. "It is safe to advise the grater production of livestock and live- stock products. I refer especially to hogs, sheep and cattle." "PURE-BRED" IN AGRICULTURE The pure-bred in agriculture re. presents the efficient: animal ma- chine, It is the result of gener- ations of the most careful selec- tion and breeding. The pure-bred is the cumulative result of im- provement. In the pure-bred we find the present source of highly developed © qaalities in domes- tic animals, From no other source may we expect so great improve- ment in so short a time. The more widely the blood of pure-bred ani- mals can be distributed and ming- led with the common blood of the country, the more profitable will | be all live stock operations.
