CHRIST’S MISSION Luke 4:18. The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath an ointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach de liverance to the captives, and re covering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. Luke 19:10. For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. John 14:2, 3. In my Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. PRAYER: O Lord, Thy ways are not as our ways, neither are Thy thought our thoughts, for as the heaven is high above the earth, so are Thy thoughts and Thy ways above ours. What did Jesus say about prayer? Answer, read—Matt. 21:22. CHURCH OF CHRIST Choose for Soil If you plan to plant a legume crop and the soil is poor, two things should be considered in choosing the crop, says the U. S. department of agriculture—the locality and the amount of lime in the land. On poor land with plenty of lime, which gets about 17 inches of rain, sweet clover is usually the best legume. Where land is deficient in lime, velvet beans, sowpeas, or soybeans are best in the South, and adapted varieties of the latter crop do well fairly far north. On poor sandy land in the far North, hairy ,vetch and rye do well. Horse Bots and Razor Blades One solution of disposing of the old razor blades has been found! The U. S. department of agricul ture says the botfly eggs attached to the horse can be shaved off with a safety razor. Another way is to destroy them with a 2 per cent caol-tar-creosote solution. If the bootflies are inside the horse, he should be dosed with carbon bisulphide by a veterinarian. These methods wil control all three kinds If the botflies are inside the horse, common botfly, the throat botfly, and the nose botfly. December and January, when the botflies have ceased to fly, are the best months to control them, says the depart ment of agriculture. Little Vanity Dreiaer, ployed to detect him. Just as the support.
