MORE LEGUMIJiv MORE GROWTH, GREATER WEALTH 't " Z " " - - i' r - , , I' i - ' . I i , " ' ' " ' Is '' ' i , Plant: growth depends upon nitrates ; as much so as ani ' mal life .depends upon air. The legumes are the only men bers of "the vegetable kingdom i that have the power to,ex tract nitrogen" from the air and j"fix" it in the soil :. , . jTherefore we! must grow the legumes. i Each legume i3 a miniature nitrate factory, and it does its work secretly and underground. It takes the nitrogen from the air 'wRh its leaves and makes it into nitrates with the nodules on its roots. i , , ' So, eVery scheme of crop rotation must include legumes ; , clover or peas or beans or the i vetches; or other first, second or third cousins all belonging to the great pulse family, with seed pods and butterfly shaped or two-winged flowers. The legumes put into the soil the elements that are needed.for the growth of all other crops. j " ' " There are two other great reasons why the Salem dis j trict in particular should grow more legumesif it could be ' conceived that more reasons were thinkable j j . First, legumes go with dairying, and this is essentially a dairy country. We must have cows :to provide soil fertili I zation, and we mus have cows to mother our swine breeding 1 and poultry industries. Cows must go with our, orchards; both cows and cover crops of legumes. No- orchard will re J main thrifty without the constant renewal of the fertility ! of the soil. . . - Second, we must have honey bees.! There can be no cer ! tainty of pollination : without bees.. The winds do not carry the cherry blossoms at all. ; They must be carried by the bees. 1 In the years when i we have steady rains during the fruit - blodming season; there m; be partial ; or even total failure j of pollination of any or all fruit crops without honey bees to carry the pollen, .during the sunshiny, hours between the showers.: The bees run-from 20,000 to 100,000 workers to the ing an increasing acreage of alfalfa; and we are trying out two new varieties of soy beans. , - . ' . - In fact, our growers, as usual, are fully doing their part. They are up on their toes. They are the backbone of both rural prosperity, and city growth. t ' ' , IS HUMAN PROGRESS A DELUSION? hiveand, where th'ercare numerous colonies of bees, whole i great orcnara areas jnay De pouemzea in an nour s . 1 And the bee keeping industry' of our district depends for its great' success upon the Bokhara, White, Sweet or Honey j clover-r-absolutely. This is the only crop that will fully sup I ply ample late bee pasture.

One of "the strongest contributions to the wide religious discussion now going on in this country between Ihe J unda mentalists and the Modernists is an article in the WorToVs Work, entitled Freedom in School and Church, by W. H. F. Faunce, President of Brown University. President Faunce, i3 declared to be a staunch ! Christian, and since Brown Uni versity is a Baptist institution, he is presumably a Baptist. He takes strong ground! for evolution and declares that evolution is now as firmly' established as the law of gravita tion. "Both are consistent with Christianity ; neither has anything to do with the truth or falsity of . any religion. Whether species were created instanter, as coins are stamped in the mint, or were created by process, as a gardener grows roses that has nothing to do with -the great fundamentals of religion: "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with fall thy heartf and thy neighbor as thy self." ! He continues : "We i thought that forty years ago m Americari religion had been adjusted to the evolutionary theory,. as it was adjusted in the sixteenth century to the far more startling Copernican theory. We thought that science had definitely f yielded a large place to the unseen and intangible, and had agreed to Goethe's saying that, The universe divided by reason leaves a remainder.' We thought that forty years, ago it was established that th Bible was not a text-bookiof science any more than is Pilgrim's Pro gress or John Wesley's journal. Now, to the an azement of the whole world a large'inumber of sincere entt usfasts are proclaiming that human1 progress is a delusion, that the ultimate catastrophe is close at hand, that alttiurhan institu tionshome, school, state and church rare soon to disappear, that the worse the world gets, the more reason We have to hope, and are basing their , pessimistic and n6n-c;o-operatiYe attitude on the baldly literal interpretationof a 'few ofthe obscurest texts in the Bible." . ' . ;. This author sums up. the controversy as it appeals to him thus : The question is this : Is American Christianity strong enough to include, as does the Bible, various type3 of person ality and various modes of thinking, or is i a one-track affair which excludes all minds, that do not run in a single groove? Is the American church to be broad and deep enough to guide the conscience of a hundred million people, or is it to be a group of 4 petty sects, controlled by literalists, excluding all germinating ideas and forward-looking minds?" To auote from Presiden't Faunce's article asrain: "In deed, the doctrine of evolution, rightly understood and 1 in terpreted, is today one of the most powerful aids to religious faith. It has delivered thousands from perplexity amount ing to despair. It ha supplanted the old, paralyzing concep; tion of a world machine,-a world mechanical and lifeless; grinding out human destiny without end. A developing wofld, 3till in the process, ceaselessly unfolding, still to be shaped by human purpose and effort that is the inspiring concep tion - now placed in the hands of : the church by modern science." f r ' : ' . ; - Can it be, as claimed by Fundamentalism, that the ef forts of scholars in the search for truth,' the labors of Chris tian apostles and evangelists, the work of emancipators and reformers, the sacrifices of statesmen, liberators and martyrs all striving for greater perfection of humanity, for greater intelligence in the masses, for higher ideals and their realiza tion for humanity, and for the reign of liberty, truth, justice and righteousness upon the earth have no value in the esti mation of the loving, all-wise Creator of the universe? Carl it be that these efforts and struggles in the progress of the, race and their Wonderful results mean nothing when trans4 lated into the language of eternity, but that they are all to be swept 'away by the cataclysm which the All-Wise has decreed shall end 'the "present dispensation" as the Funda mental ist brethren designate the present . age ? Is human progrss but a dreamland human; life a horrible nightmare from which the world will one day foe aroused to witness the sweeping away of the results of ages' of progress and devel- onrrient for humanitv. a3 well as for the whole creation, to, make way for the literal coming! of the Lord from a far away heaven to set up His literal thrbne and establisha new dispensation upon the earth, the purpose of which the Funda mentalists have failed to make clear? Can it be that the Creator has made such a poor job of His work that He is to wipe it all out, except a chosen few, 'the elect,, among whom are of course, to bej the Fundamentalist brethren, with whom as a nucleus He is to begin all, over again? I - time since Mrs. Harding became in last - Sentember. They were cccompanied by Edward P. Mc Lean, Washington newspaper publisher, and" Mrs., McLean, their hnafa in Florida. ? A musicar com edy was the attraction! Nd, a thousand times,, no. Neither reason nor the New Testament warrants any such horrible! hypothesis. Reason, the Scripture and the experience of mankind teach that the only cataclysm that is to come to the world is" that that is con tinually corning, to it as the lower anajless perfect manifesta tions of life are displaced by the higher and more perfect. As the life and civilization of today are but the result, the con summation of the effort and development of the past so will the future build upon the present as a foundation the wonder ful structures that He has decreed shall stand upon the earth as well as fill all of His creation. - i I. : ; - No, pessimism and S gloom can not long dominate any considerable! portion of the religious life of America, which is itself proof that the All-Wise has decreed eternal progress and development for His world. - t No, if God be love, as Jesus dtclared, if He be possessed of infinite wisdom, He must look upon His creation some what as the wi3e father looks upon his little child, realizing that he is an infant, not a developed man, and loving him in spite of his weakness and imperfection. This divine, love has provided for all our needs and the conditions forour develop ment into perfection. He has the whole creation in His same loving care. P Otherwise it would never have been,1 it would not be. '.- .

I . 1 The country seemed peaceful and nice,' A fine sort of place to the 'mice; But theit Joy did not last,. For. events followed fast, . And tragedy came in a trice. v "It must be awful," thivered Mrs. Mouse, looking at ner hus band. "How yon even endured it for. all those months is more than I can 'see.', Whenever;.! rebemter that you were born and raised In the country It makes' me feel just dreadful. I .hope none of pur friends ever find it out. But after all, I suppose you couldn't help it. You showed your good sense by moving to the city just as soon ,as'you Were bid enough.'':. ? "Yes, that's right," laughed her husband. He had never told his wife how he had happened to move to the city. He had been living In a big box of cheese at the ' time. . One day he had dis covered that the box and i he in the ' box had been moved . to the city. "But seriously," he added, "you know wife, the country isn't so bad. ' It's nice and quiet end one always has plenty to eat there, s Then another thing, you don't have - to the continually . on guard aganst " poison and traps." ; "Nice rural i quiet and safety," sneered Mrs. Moused "Don't talk to me about it. If you ever want to go back to your old farm, you'll have , to go alone. ! That's air I have to say." , . Hardly, mord than a week had passed f before Mr. and Mrs. Chal mers Mouse found themselves in the country. .Their lovely city home, a - large box of excelsior, had .been . 'shipped to the rnral districts before they had had time to move' out. . At first Mrs. Mouse was fran tic. It was terrible: She knew she could never stand It. !- Chal mers himself waa secretly rather pleased to get hack to the peace and plenty of the country, but of course, he , dare , not say so. He had worked so hard in the' city to scrape : enough together to keep hia family alive that it seemed almost like heaven to go into the- pantry to find enough food to l3t them a year. And then a funny thing hap pened. Gradually Mrs. , Mouse ceased to complain. She. too, had learned to. Bke the rnral life She saw how much .happier her hus band, was.' The' children thrived on the good butter and cream and were better than they had ever been in : their lives. i Theer were no traps to worry about. It real ly was very peaceful and nice Now Mrs. Mouse was an honeat little mouse, so she owned up to her husband that she. had. been mistaken. "I like it," she said "I i hope I shall i be able to end my days in the i country." The cat was listening and; he heard her. ATI right," he said "you ; shall." , He tnade a spring toward Mrs. ; Mouse and .in less than a second her wish was rut filled. : ': .- 1 CHAPTER D 282. HOW MADGE TOOK' CARE OF LILLIAN. f To my surprise, Lillian, usual ly dominant and decided, was as docile as, a gentle child in! the obedience which she gave my ulti matum that she go to -bed for two or three hours. -. ;- s "I shall be Very glad to put my self in your charge, Madge,"j she said with a weary little smile. J'But you'll have to tell I one tar- radiddle i for me. I left Marion over at Mrs. Durkee's, ahd If she comes over while I'm asleep, tell her. I. said that I was busy writ ing and did not wish tp be dis turbed. I don't know what to do with ' the child." she said half meditatively. "She is absolutely unreasoning in her terror about me when! I am ill, or: am away from her longer than I have plan ned. She Is always imagining scone dreadful accident. I don't know what she would do if ! any thing did happen to me." t Her voice was sombre,' as If the menace of something sinister ahead of her had touched I her with a foreboding finger. . ' "It strikes' me," I rfaid dryly, that with such a condition fac ing you, it behooves you to take etra care of yourself. I warn you I'm going to.be an inexorable taskmaster, but if you'll come with me now .I'll tell stories for you till I'm i black in the face. I struck a bell for Kate Lil Han had found me In the dining room -and, almost instantly my little, maid apepared at the kitchen door. . i .

As I talked I hurriedly helped her get off her gown and into a klmona.' Then I changed my own attire for lounging - things, and was ready to take the tray from Katie when i she appeared at the door. - ' Thank you, Katie, this is very nice." I hurried, through the comment, for" I didn't wish her keen eyes lingering on Lillian and me., i "Will you ; please keep everybody away until I call you? 1 am going to sleep, and Mrs.' Un derwood- to write, .'and we don't want" to-1 be "disturbed.""

I forced Lillian to drink a cud of the steaming tea, and to eat a slice of Katie's delicious toast. Then I.tput her Into my bed, cov ered her ; lightly, opened a . win dowy and drew down the shades before going Inta the curtained alcove and setting myself com iortaDiy with a magazine upon the couch, by the window.
