The Keast lucks the merri ment we have learned to associ ate with the Na llvlly, hut the Kesurrectton is to the full us essential to the Christian faith. Christmas Is a season of Joy, of blithesome cheerfulness at the udvent of the Savior. To u world sobered by Its Uelhsemane and Calvary, Easter brings a message of Faith and Hope, the essence of the religion munliiud needs. Mankind has passed through the Agony culminating In and symbolized by the little white cross, lleuvy bearted we are still Inclined to seek solace at the tomb. To us the mes sage comes again: "Why seek ye the Uvlng among the dead? Ue Is not here; He Is risen." Therein lies the message of Easter: the .promise of Immortality beyond the tomb. Nor la It a mere coincidence that Easter falls at this season. Sprint; Is simply Nature's wny of reiterating the Easter message. Through the long winter months the world of Nature has seemed asleep in deuth. Trees bare, fields destitute, death appeared to reign supreme. Then, Just as we are almost wea ried enough to give up hope, the sap begins to run, Mile green things to shoot, birds to chirp as cheerily as ever. It Is Nature's message of immortal ity to the world of humanity. There Is another and a wider aspect of the Easter message. We seem to be standing by the tomb of much that Is holy. Religion, belief In principle. Idealism, how dead they seem to be I Seeking only material things, neglect ful of things of the spirit, the world Is In s parlous state. The few who have held their beliefs look about n perplexity snd dismay. - Has the very body of the faith been removed? Ah, no. In the midst of our anxious grief comes the reviving, heartening assur ance: "He Is not dead; Ue is risen." Ever the Enster festival comes around after the Inevitable Agony and every spring the magic words are spoken and we go forth clad In Invul nerable armor for the fray, for "He la not dead; He la risen." 80 shall we other men also rise! SERVICE ON EASTER MORN Impressive Ceremonies Annually Car ried Out on summit or mount Rubidoux In California. The famous Easter pilgrimage to the cross on Mount Rubidoux, near Riverside, CaL. heralded all over the ..,ntra for Its sincerity and beauty, was the conception of Jacob Rtls, who Inaugurated It several years ago. me service la nonsectarlan and makes a mm Mmi By H.

One could travel mam. tniia an, 1 yet not find as wide variation as ex ists 111 sou, cimate. and crops aa does exist In the two counties above named and so widely lAiuHt These two counties both lie close to tne ii degree parallel of latitude. Both have larxe rivers flnwln ih,,, them. Yet bow different are the aolls and the cropa that grow thereon. The vallev aoila In liummhii-A county are a sandy loam to a light Sandv soil. Th hltl nt t,irkim.u(...i are rocky and the soil is very shal low. Onions and tobacco are the big main crops In the valley. A thous and bushels of onions and 500 to uoo pounds of tobacco per acre are not unuaual crops on 13 and 25 acre plots owned and worked by a Polish farmer and his large family. A few Yankees still farm, however, a larger number of Polaudera produce most of the crops. On the hills and leva ste.jp moun tain sides much good fruit is grown. Apples are the prlncpal crop. Very little stock la kept. Pastures are poor as a rule. Some dairying is done near the towns, of which thete Is au abundance In this tl ickly set tled position of the country. The climate la quite typical of New England. Spring work atarts in April usually and ends in Novem ber or earl December, except coarse work in the woods. The rainfall la well distributed over the ieason and totals for the year an average of 4 2 inches. Snow often comes In No vember and lasts till April. Sleighing Is common and the snow Is often so deep iha;( aulos can only he used In towns. ' It Is then that the farmer realizes that he cannot do without his old faithful friend, the horse. To describe the soils of Doualas county would take altocother too much time and space. Thcv are as varied as a color plate put out by a big paint house. Aa a mis the vulley soils arc the moat desirable. Trult croi's of all kinds are grown on these lands. The bench lands am lea desirable and the bill and moun tain sldos more so. Prunes growing Is the big fruit Industry in the coun ty, livestock, Including poultry, be ing the second big farm business. The farmers of thia county are 7.6 native Americans. Pastures are us ually poor during July and August in all of the county except the coaat section where the rainfall Is usually double or triple than east of the coast range. Douglas county climate la differ ent from that of most any other county in the atate. The famous Umpqua river la partly responsible and the typography of the county, of course, Influences the distribution of the wlnda and moisture ladened air from the coaat. Snow Is common at the higher altitudes, but often does not last long. The average raln- luu is o d incnes. The average tem perature rangos from 3i degrees In irnor 10 10 negroes In summer.
