B J 28â€"35. _ Il A LOVING PAREwELL, 20: 36â€"38. HL tn;:lu;tans or aN ArostLe, 2 C tail, as if Luke had some specia! inâ€" terest in showing how Paul tared with the Roman authorities. Some scholars hold that this was don» to influenee the officials of the Empire, who were at the time of the writing of this hisâ€" tory, â€" persecuting _ the Christians. Others think that Luke was anxious to show the eagerness of Paul to reach this great capital of Rome. V. 17. Paul has no time to take thol journey of thirty miles toâ€" Ephesus,| but he wishes to give some message l to the Christians there before he takes the long voyage, from which he may not return. Accordingly he sends for the elders or minis.ers of the difâ€" ferent congregation; in the city, that he may convey his message through them. He had probably ordained these | mev himself and ! was with matl satisfaction that he sddressed them. This was about the end of April. ° V. 18. The speech then delivered is one of the most impressive in the, New Testament, full of personal inâ€" terest, revealing the sympathy, affecâ€" tion. carnestness and sense of responâ€" sibility ~shich Paul felt in his minis-! try. It is the onlv sermon in Acts} a‘dressed to the church. _ Evidently ) Paul thinks that these may be his| last words to the people there. Hei had been furiously attacked, and :o had to snenl some time in selfâ€"de~| fence. Then comes his warning. He knows that false teachers are alwnysl on the rounds, seeking to lead astray the simpleâ€"minded believers. Hence, his advice, that they bold fast to the truth and remain steadfast. * V. 19. Paul‘s relation to Christ was like that of a slave to his master. This is reflected in (a) his sense of humility: (b) his ‘ears" or arxieties which this service brought, and (c) "trials" chiefly due to the wretched plot« of the evilâ€"minded Jews. V 90. His wreat duty was to bear "trials" chiefly due to the wretched plot« of the evilâ€"minded Jews. V. 20, His great duty was to bear witness to the truth, which he has learned from Christ. This he did (a) with fulness. and (b) ovenly. He menâ€" tions two sphere« of labor. First the public sneech, which was probably deâ€" livered in the school of Tyrannus, and second!y the private conference which‘ he would conduct in the house of difâ€" forent mowbers of the church. | Â¥. i1 How wide was the range of| Paul‘s efforts! The Jew and the Greek alike received attention at his hands. Ho nover hss the one object of leadâ€" (~« them through repentance to the full accoptance of faith in Christ Jesns. He did 1 ot shun to declare the wholo wisdom of God. V. 28. Paul now {arns from his own case to that of the elders who will honce forth have the responsibility for the flock. The verse shows that Paul regarded each congregation as a part of the universal church of God, th... the ministers or overseers were like shevherds, who had to feed and guide the flock. _ Their one central theme must be the great redemption which has been purchased at such a price. Salvation has come to them throuch the death of Jesus Christ. V,. 20. Future perils are now pointâ€" ed out. These will, in part, come from enemies, who are outside the church. V. 30. But there are dangers which will arise from within also. Members of the church will corrupt the truth as it is in Christ. _ Tlese predictions were fulfilled, as we can sec from the Pastoral Letters, 1 Timothy 1: 20; : Timothy 2: 17. V. 31. Just as Jesus had urged the disciples to watch (Matt. 24: 42}, sc now Paul gives the same advice to tht elders.

I presume it was because their ears were so much more promiâ€" nent than those of the horses, but when a mule cocked one ear forward while he allowed the other one to loll lazinly back, it appeared to me not Muleâ€"skinners might well have Deen called the "expressâ€"freighters" of the trails. They were recruited from the ranks of exâ€"stage drivers, stoveâ€"up cowâ€"punchers, exâ€"frontiersmen or Kanâ€" sas farmers. These latter worked on the trails in the off season for farmâ€" ing. Their style of dress was as nonâ€" descript as their personnel. A mule_team was composed of six or even eight animals, and the train was made up of any number of such units up to ten,. Each team drew one or two canvasâ€"covered wagons. The men drove from the seat of the lead wagon, or from the back of one of the lead mules. A longâ€"handled, lightâ€" weight, woven leather whip was the staff of office. * These trains carried from fifteen to twentyâ€"five hundred pounds of freight, and covered twentyâ€"five to thirty miles per day. Provender in the shape of oats or corn was carried, and this was supplemented by grazing at night. Such freight trains worked all the year round, because feed could be carried for the animals. The muleâ€"skinners slept, as the bullâ€" whackers did, under their wagons, and in stress of weather they also came to sleep in the buildings at Red Fork Ranch. The mule teams, swinging along the trails, made an animated picture. â€"Hubert E. Collins, in "Warpath and Cattle Trail." ' on the Trail GOOSE RAISING t The autumn s regarded as the DrOD-‘ f1 er season to select geese for the eS:, I tablishment of a breeding flock. In a|f circular on goose raising issued bylfl the Department of Agriculture at;P Ottawa, the author, Mr. A. G. Taylor,| ® recommends securiag well developed | ! birds from good flocks before the fatâ€"| ! tening period commences in the fall.| Stock from this year‘s hatchings are| 1 not likely to do as well as birds a| 3 year older. The sexes should te}® housed together even before New}® Year‘s and should be kept so throughâ€" 1 out the winter and the breeding seaâ€"! son in the spring. Close housing is| t not required. Such shelter as a rough | shed is sufficient provided it is supâ€" C plied with dry bedding and protection| from draughts and storm. Circular|‘ No. 55, published by the Department| of Agriculture at Ottawa, gives as|! a good winter ration for geese equal|‘ parts of barley ard wheat and about 1 25 per cent. of green feed, such as clover or alfalfa hay. Cabbage, manâ€" gels or turnips, finely cut up, makes an excellent green food ration. The}; circular gives explicit information on | ; feeding during the laying season, the! methods to be followed in rearing thel goslings, and marketinzy the stock. ; PREPARING GEESE FOR MARâ€" KETING Active trade in geese does not begin until the arrival of cold weather. The! fattening of the market stock should begin as soon as the weather turns cold. Circular No. 55 of the Departâ€" ment of Agriculture at Ottawa on Goose Raising, recommends taking the geese in from pasture on the arâ€" rival of cold weather and separating | out the breeders. The market stock should be fattened in small enclosures | by heavy feeding. Whole corn is reâ€" |commended as an excellent diet with ‘|a plentiful supply of water to drink. | About two weeks‘ feeding with this ; | class of food are stated to be sufficient . |to prepare the birds for market. While ‘|geese are sometimes marketed alive, ~!the usual method is to send them forâ€" ‘|ward in dressed â€" condition. The,v‘ â€"lshould be kept without food, but | t l given an abundance of water for| 1 | twentyâ€"four hours before killing. The: 1| usual method is to bleed the birds ni t the mouth and pluck dry. While ® |goose feathers are particularly valuâ€" 0 |able, often bringing as much as sixty â€" | cents perpound. The carcasses when {f|dressed should be rubbed over with â€"|a damp cloth and set aside to cool. s |They are then ready to be packed in "|boxes of twelve or less for the marâ€" U | ket. tr Farim Notes ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO Plhis test is reviewed in the report of the Superirtendent of the station for last year, in which he says that | the lot which had meal and skim milk from weaning to finishing made. the largest and cheapest gains. ‘Those fed for five months on skim milk and fAnished on tankage came second, the pen getting skim milk for four months and tankage for the balance of their lives, came third, while the lot fod ‘t.nkage from weaning to finishing were slightly below both in gains and in profit, This test shows that tank» age is a very suitable substitute for skim milk when the latter feed is not available. ‘The tankage used is desigâ€"| â€" nated "Special 45 per cent. protein hog tankage." ‘The meal mixture for | the four lots for the first two months | ° consisted of 2 parts oats, 1 part midâ€" dlings and 1 part shorts; for the secâ€" ond two months, 2 parts oats, 1 part|» middlings, 1 part shorts, and 1 part corn; and for the last six weeks, oats and corn constituted two parts each with one part each of middlings and shorts. POTATOES IN THE POULTRY RATION In the feeding‘of poultry for marâ€" ket cornmeal is always regarded as having an important place in a mixed ration. Feeding tests at the ‘Expertâ€" lmental Farm at Ottawa have proved i that where cornmeal is not readily available cull potatoes can be used very satisfactorily in its place. The g test is reviewed in the 1927 report .|ot. the Poultry Division, published by | the Department of Agriculture at Otâ€" y tawa. Two lots of capons, consisting * in each case of fifteen White Leghorns 8 and fifteen Barred Rocks, were.fattenâ€" | ed in small pens for a period of two ‘, weeks. ‘The mash was made up of , | equal parts bran middlings,. oat flour, ; cornmeal and oneâ€"half part of meat § meal. This was the ration fed to one ‘|of the lots while the mash fed to the ‘l other lot contained approximately oneâ€" ~| fifth byâ€"weight of cull potatoes and no ; cornmeal. That is to say, the cornâ€" t meal of the mash in the one case was § replaced in the other by an equal | weight of potatoes. The potatoes ‘| were thoroughly cooked, mashed and vlmixed with the other feed. |The mix .t | ture: in e@#cltâ€" case was â€"fed> motsterned r!with milk In the usual way. ‘The ,"\'uluu of the mashes used ~was 2.6 l‘i!('mm per pound with cornmeal ‘and e:'.‘.:3. cents per pound with the potaâ€" l_ltuus. The same amount of ‘feed \\‘as‘ y consumed by. each of the two lots. 'n The gains. made were much the sumc} h in either.case and the cost of feed 1 varied very slightly. At the couclu-‘ n’ sion of the feeding experiment the: lr- birds were killed and dressed. The potatofed birds are reported to have made~ the +â€"most attractive dressed fowl:~ In‘ addition, â€" the birds were submitted <to "several persons to be of| tested for flavor, and those receiving q( | the potatoes instead of the corn, were m| pronounced supérior in every case. m| This experiment indicates that cull 1e| potatoes may safely be usod instead of ig! cornmeal when the latter is dificult »q | to obtain. is.| ILLUSTRATION STATIONS PROâ€" MOTE POULTRY RAISING The illustration stations operatcd“ under the direction of the Experimenâ€" tal Farms System in the Prairie Prov-i inces and in British Columbia are helping . very . materially . to arouse | greater interest in the breeding, feedâ€" ing and housing of poultry. In his report for last year, published by the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa, the Chief Supervisor of these stations shows that each year improvements are made by the various operators of the stations in the care and housing and in the quality and care of the breeding stock,. Some of the operaâ€" tors who premit parts of their farm to be used for these stations have been building new upâ€"toâ€"date houses, while others are remodelling old ones in | comity with modern ideas with reâ€" %spect to lighting, ventilation and genâ€" | eral comfort. By careful breeding and selection the flocks are being imâ€" | proved in eggâ€"laying qualities. The ! stock they are able to produce are | readily sold to farmers in the surâ€" !roundmg districts served by the staâ€" | tions.
