Morning Worship n o'clock Senior and Junior C. E. 7 o'clock Evening Worship 8 o'clock Choir rehearsal. Wed. eve., 8 o'clock Church Night Thurs. eve. 8 o'clock Where Is Zebedee? "Then came to Him the mother of Zebedee's children, with her sons, worshipping Him." Matt 20-20. Where was Zebedee, the father of these sons? During the eventful years of Christ's personal ministry on earth, why did not Zebedee iden tify himself as a follower of Christ, along with his family? There are great numbers of men, Zebedees, whose wives and children pursue a course of conduct in re ligious matters in marked contrast to that of husbands and fathers. Where are you, husband, father, Zebedee, when the wife and moth er is trying to bring up the chil dren in the way of Christianity? Let your heart answer this ques tion. We all know of the broken family circles, blasted hopes, ruin ed lives, divorce courts, because the family circle has not been a com plete, perfect circle in Christian living. Husbands, and also wives, must mutually help in this matter especially for the sake of the chil dren. It is hard for either one of the parents to combat non-Christian living on the part of the other, when trying to raise children to be God-fearing Christians; it is hard for either one of the parents to get children to Bible School, church, etc., when the other parent has no concern about it, never goes. The salvation of this nation of the whole earth depends not upon the "whoopee of peanut politicians; but upon Christian statesmanship and Christian leadership, and Christian citizenship, all of which must begin in Christian homes! If you have not a Church home, we invite you to our Bible School and church services. Come, and test the welcome of this Friendly Church. METHODIST CHURCH. GLEN P. WHITE, Pastor. Mrs. C. R. Ripley, Director of Music. 9:45 a. m., Sunday School. 11:00 a. m., Morning worship hour, message, "Paid in Full on the Atonement" 7 p. m., Epworth League. 8 p. m., Song service and gospel message, "We Would See Jesus." "It is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul." Lev. 17-11. It is absolutely impossible to re deem corrupted, sinful men with a corruptible price. It takes an in corruptible price to redeem cor ruptible beings. It takes the im mortal to redeem the mortal. It takes the pure to redeem the im pure. It takes the guiltless to re deem the guilty. Hence salvation must be of divine origin. And the one who rejects the atoning blood of Jesus Christ is like a derelict at sea. He is without hope and with out God in this world. The manger led to the cross; the cross to the tomb; the tomb to the resurrection; the resurrection to the ascension; and the ascension to His coming again. Anyone who believes on the Son of God may know that he has eter nal life. "He that belicveth on me hath everlasting life." You are welcome to all our services. BIG BROWN TENT. Subject for the meeting Friday night, August 26, "God's Reasons Man's Excuses." Saturday: Sabbath School 10:00 a. m., a good lecture 11:00 a. m. Evening meeting, "The Baptism of the Holy Spirit Speaking in Un known Tongues." Sunday evening, "Where do We Go From Here? What Happens the Next Minute After Death?" Tuesday evening "Present Truth," and children's meeting at 7:15 p. m. Wednesday evening, "How to Pay the Minister and Not Use One Pen ny of Your Own Money." Fewer Apples, Same Pears And Potatoes Estimated Pear and potato crops almost ex actly the same as last year for the country as a whole and an apple crop considerably smaller are in prospect, according to August gov ernment crop estimates just review ed by the market news service of the state college extension service. The pear crop is placed at 22,149, 000 bushels compared with 21,487, 000 bushels last year. Oregon's crop is estimated at 2,880,000 bush els compared with 2,988,000 bushels last year. The country will raise 367,399.000 bushels of potatoes, the government estimates, compared with 375,518,--000 last "year. Oregon is expected to harvest only 4.620,000 bushels compared with 5,460,000 last year. Leading commercial sections in this state, however, are raising Just as large an acreage this year as last, say private reports to the extension service. Total apple crop of the United States is now placed at 133,824,000 bushels of which 90.513,000 bushels are commercial. This compares with 211,506.000 bushels last year for the total crop and 104,196,000 bushels for the commercial. Ore gon's total for this year and last is given at 4,950,000 bushels and 3, 150,000 bushels respectively. Thus Oregon is probably to have a larger crop than a year ago, while the country as & whole will have a much smaller crop. Oregon will produce more fresh prunes and less dried ones than a year ago, the crop estimates show. The dried prune tonnage in this state is estimated at only 17,500 tons compared with 27,000 tons last year. California's dried prune crop will be well in advance of last year, while the crop in France is a little under a year ago, balanced off by a larger crop In Yugoslavia. FARM MARKET NEWS More favorable conditions ahead for the sheep industry are indicated in an outlook report just released by the Oregon agricultural exten sion service. On the other hand, the supply of dairy and poultry pro ducts is expected to be well main mained with higher price levels mostly dependent upon increased purchasing power of consumers. The present extremely low prices for sheep products is due to the "combined effect of increased sup plies of lambs and wool and sharp ly curtailed consumer demand and purchasing power" the report states. Due to unfavorable condi tions for sheep in the western states last winter, however, death losses were heavy and sheep numbers have been reduced. The shorn wool crop was 7 per cent less than a year ago and the lamb crop 8 per cent less. The pro portion of yearling ewes in the flocks is also below normal. Evidence of continued keen com petition in the dairy industry is seen in the increasing number of milk cows in the country. The ef fect of the probable increase in supply on prices is expected to be offset by stronger demand, as in dustrial payrolls increase. A small increase in the number of hens i3 in prospect but the sup ply of eggs may not be larger than during the past year, unless weath er conditions should again be un usually favorable, according to the report.

Ike ffAMMfif k DDdDCTODf JOHNJ0SCPH6AINE$,M.D AFTER OPERATION An operation for diseased ovary? Removal of tumor? Of the appen dix? Or, for hernia? If you have had any of these operations, yours is a "surgical abdomen," or has been. And, the nerves within that wonderful structure may not func tion for a good while as they did before you had the disease requir ing the surgery. I often tell my patients that have had operations: "Let a mechanic stoop down before your piano and saw a hole in its "abdomen," let him go inside the instrument and remove part.of the wires, and twist the others here and there. Then let him fill the wound in the wood en wall and varnish it anew, so that all evidence of the job is hidden. Would you expect the piano to play after the internal damage to its strings? So it is with the surgical abdo men, whose nerves have been orig inally adjusted far more perfectly than any piano-strings. You may have had the best surgeon on earth, for a most malignant condition the operation may have been done in the highest skill of perfection, yet the damaged nerves may not perform naturally for a long time, until the parts have become ad- Between points In Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, California, Mon tana, Wyoming (west of and Including Granger), and points on Great Northern In British Columbia.

ON OREGON FARMS Kingsley A field of Hybrid 128 wheat on the C. A. Knowles ranch was the only one of several fields in this section of Wasco county that passed inspection for certification. Mr. Knowles has been specializing for many years in producing pure varieties and improved strains of grain, having achieved a high rep utation for winning exhibits at county, state and regional fairs. He began years ago by hand-picking grain for seed. Prineville Potato growers of this region are interested in the results of some tests with so-called scab proof potatoes being made this year. Nursery plots of these va rieties said to be immune from scab are planted on the E. W. Stewart, Geo. C. Truesdale, E. N. Hall and R. R. Roberts farms. They all showed excellent growth when last inspected by County Agent Tucker who obtained the start of the seed.
