A great deal can be accomplished [in increasing thickness and vigor of grass by proper fertilization of the lawn. Fertilizers applied to the lawn have the big advantage that they do not add weed seeds, but they help eliminate weeds which are already found in the lawn. : As to quantities of fertilizers to apply to lawns: use about the.same quantity as recommended for gardens, but apply half the applications at two different. dates. For well established lawns, scatter the fertilizer evenly over the lawn hen the grass has*made a good stant: ish in the spring. Choose.a' time when but ony first wish) the grass is dry.

Vv. 2-8. A great earthquake. Mat- thew speaks also of an earthquake on the day of the crucifixion (27: b1). The shock which opened the . tomb must be regarded as-occurring before he women came, otherwise they would have seen Jesus come forth. The angel, whom they saw, is describ- ed by Mark as "a young man," sitting in the tomb on the right side, arrayed in a.white robe, Luke says that t ey saw two men standing by them "in dazzling apparel," and John that Mary Magdalene saw in the tomb "two angels in white sitting, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain." It is impossible to explain all this as mere fancy, the result of an ex- cited imagination.' Something most certainly happened, here and after- wards, which made these women be- lieve beyond the thadow of a doubt that the unexpected and seemingly impossible thing had happened, and that their.

Paul heard the evidence and believed, Phar!see and persecutor though he had been. He is not here, for He is risen. This was the testimony of the angel, They saw the place where He had lain and! the empty tomb, and they believed. | This testimony was Zepeated by the] women and by the apostles, and by the! lips of countless evangelists and €0n- Jehore all down through tie years. | "This Jesus did God raise tp, whereof we are all witnesses," said Peter at Pentecost.

Doggone Stumpé: How shall we get rid of thendog- gone stumps? = Here is my mathod, based upon years of successful @xpe- rience. Dig a hole at one side of the stump, preferably 'between two big roots. Be sure to get all the dirt away from the roots and the stump body. Now start a hot fire with chunk§ and trash. Throw a little damp straw or trash over the fire and cover it completely with sods and dirt. You might leave just a little hole next the stump, but this is not really necessary if you don't cover the fire more than five inches with sod and dirt. Go away and forget about the stump. The fire will burn slowly but surely until there is nothing left of the stump. It will even follow the roots into the ground. It may smolder for a week or. two but is sure-fire in time. The method is 'based upon the charcoal burner's methods followed before the time of brick kilns, > i fia y A good plan is to have a feedicoop which the young chickens can enter, but the old hens cannot; and always have some cracked wheat, oats, or oatmeal and corn-chops in it.
