Only a few examples can be hen here, some merely by sugges- tion rather than description in detail. There is Abraham of whom the Lord says, “I hare known him u the end that he may command his children and his household ufter him, that they may keep the way of the" Lord," Gen. 20: l9. There is the hospitable tent- home of Jethro in Midian where Moses, the fugitive, is welcqmgq. E.:xo.d. Doumbcr 1. Lesson tx-The Chris- tun Home in a Mature, World, Luke 2: 4th52.

In the home of Micah, in the hill country of Ephraim, with his chapel. his altar, and his priest; there is ml, though uninstrueted, piety. In Samuel’s childhood home a devoted mother prays for her son. The home life of Hosea is ooisoned by unfaith- fulness, but redeemed and healed by a changeless and self-denying love, Hos., chs. 2 and 3. Very memorable L the dignity and order of the household of the virtuous Woman of Proverbs (ch. 31). whose “grit-e is far above rubies," and whose c .ildren "rise up and call her blessed." -- . .. .. , In the New Testament, individual character stands out more prominently than social or family life, but we have frequent reference to the virtues which make a good home-kindness, purity, hospitality, humility, dilli- twee. patience. fidelity, charity. It is under the inf1uenee and power of the Lord Jesus Christ that the perfection and beauty of home life has been at- tained. 1. my CHILD IN ms noun, Deat. 6: 3-9; Luke 2: 40-52; 2 Tim. 1: 3-5; onomy requires both that the peoplel shall keep the commandments of God, and tha' they shall teach them to their children. eh. 6: l, 2, 7..

To the mind of Jesus the relation of husband [and wife is sacred and ls fivinely ordained. The Jews would have in-l volved him if they could in one of the controversies of the time. One oil their schools, that of Shammai. taughtl that a man could put away his wife for serious misconduct only. The other. the school of Hillel. held that he could "do so for any reason. for example. a spoiled dinner. or a physical defect," Peake's Commentary. Jesus admits only one sufficient cause for divorce, and frankly brands remarriage in any other case as adultery, Matt. 19: 8-9.) On the part of children, obedience and honor, on the part of parents pan tienee and wise im/truetion--these are the homely virtues to which Paul ex- horts his readers. As for servants, he counsels honest and sinttle-tpiMed service to their masters, remembering that before all else they are servants of Christ, who will receive their recom- ponse from the Lord.

Flock: On Illustration Station; operated by the Dominion Department ot Agrteul- ture as a' part ot the Experimental Farms System considerable attention is being directed to building up dairy herds on the stations and to doveior ing good types of other livestock. The majority qt the station operators are using purebred sires and many of the dairy and mixed farmers are keeping individual milk records and making butter-tat determinations in order to determine the production of each ani- mal. " A study of the rear's production or milk and tat on the ditterent station: has revealed the need ot the adoption ot improved methods. in his report tor last year the Supervisor of the ll- lustration stations, published by the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa, it is stated that the average produc- tion of butter-tat varies from 408 pounds to 1'21 pounds on the different stations. indeed. on one ot the farms it was found that the average yield per cow was only 774 pounds ot butter tat. These results show the need, and possibilities of systonntic breeding and selection. On many of the stations the herds! and tiottttB hare been so built up as tol make them valuable sources ot breed-l ing stock for the farmers in the dis-1 trict. During the past year it is noted ( by Mr. Moynan. the Supervisor, that) the operators of lllustation Stations sold 266 head of cattle, 310 hogs and 202 sheep tor breeding purposes. Fertilizers foe Potatoes in the growing ot potatoes on farms where stable manure is not plentiful commercial fertilizers of proper mix- tures may be used with advantage. To demonstrate the value of commercial fertilizers when used singly and with ‘manure potato fields: on a number of the Illustration Stations operated by the Department of Agriculture at Ot- tawa were treated in different ways, 'side by side, with a section receiving ‘20 tons of farmyard manure to the I acre. Other plots of similar land were Itreated with 10 tons of the manure, and 760 pounds of the teltillzer, and a third plot with 1500 pounds ot chemi- cal fertilizer and a fourth plot was left inufertilized. The fertilizer used was lone made up ot four parts each of Initrogeu and potash. and eight parts of phosphoric acid. These. demonstrations were carried i,l on tor three yearn at eleven stations in l l Nova Scotia. The three year average ( yields were from the farmyard manure I l plot 201 bushels to the acre. The plots 1 receiving manure and fertilizer 236 bushels to the acre, the plots receiv- [ ing only the commercial fertilizer yielded 226 bushels to the acre, while the unfertilized plots Rave less than. 100 bushels. I From these teats it way shown that! the greatest gains were obtained on the plots where both manure and chemical fertilizers were used. To ar- irive at the value of these fertilizers [it was calculated that 55% oi the cost lo! the fertilizer was charged to the iootato crop and 45% to succeedingl crops. On this basis it was found that the increased yield cost $9.73 per acre or on a bushel basis less than ' cents. Commenting on this demonstation Mr. C. M, Moynen, Chief Supervisor ot the Illustration Stations, says in his report for 1928 that under practi- cal farm conditions it would appear‘ that soils low in fertility can be re- stored to a profitable basis by the limited use ot a chemical fertilizer to supplement the necessary amount ot plant food which cannot be supplied by tnrmyard manure. Poultry Improvement Work Illustration Stations distributed over ( the country and operated under the direction ot the Experimental Farm at Ottawa, are having a line ittduetttte on ' the Improvement of poultry. In the I Eastern Quebec stations tour years ago there were only 371 purchased . birds kept on the twenty stations than in operation. In the Report ot the 'Supervisor ot the' stations tor 1928 ' published by the Department of Agri- _i'iu1t1rf at Ottawa, it is shown that t last year 1650 ot the 1900 birds kept , on twenty-two stations in the some , part ot the country were purebred and P principally ot the Barred Plymouth >4 t Rock breed. A farm Notes ot the farms houses have been built to accommodate 250 birds and on other farms old buildings have been remodelled, making needed improve- ments in light and ventilation.
