Chicago.) LESSON FOR JANUARY 25 SERVING JESUS. LE8SON TEXT? Luko 8:1-3: 9:57-62: 10:3R-42. GOLDEN TEXT?"Inasmuch as yc did It unto one of these my brethren, even the least, yo did It unto me."?Matt. 25-40. Tho first section of our lesson text has no connection with the other two. It Is taken from a time several months previous to the time of the Perean ministry and was undoubtedly chosen as an indication of the company who traveled with Jesus and hlB disciples, and who provided for his needs. We must remember that Jesus was not i supported by a board, a church, nor by j some philanthroplcally inclined fellow , citizen. It is to the second two sections therefore that we devote our chief attention. Different Clasjes. ? I. Those who would follow Jesus, 9:57-62. Read carefully Matt. 8:19-22. Three different classes ore hore represented: (1) The Impulsive follower (v. 57, 58). This is the man who is moved by a sudden desire to accompany this marvelojs Teacher, but like tho man in the parable, does not sit down and count tho cost ere he starts to build his house. This thought is emphasized when we read (Matt. 8:19) that this man was a scribe, one who would not be expected to make such < a resolve. He must have been deeply ' stirred by what he had seen and heard I in the life of .Tp?ii? ? I promised well, but It 1b soon revealed to htm that he did not realize what was Involved in his promise (v. 58). Jesus showed the man that to go "whithersoever" with him means to share his experiences, his fare, his quarters, and to reeeive the samo treatment he received, 2 Tim. 3:12. It is a mistake to tell folk that the road of righteousness is a primrose path. The road of disobedience is a rough one, as the man who went to Jericho found, still the road of righteousness is a narrow one. Matt. 7:13, 14. Every follower of Jesus must be willing to take what he took, and to receive what ho received, John 15:20; 1 Pot. 2:21. This sentence (v. 58) has done more to give us a comprehension of the earthly surroundings of our Lord than any other in the gospels, 2 Cor. 8:9. (2) The procrastinating follower (v, 59). Jesus did not forbid the first man, ho simply showed him what was Involved. This man, however, Jesus Invited to a place as disciple?learner. That he was willing to accept is evident, only ho was not yet quite ready, "I will, but?." It is not at all probable that this man's father was awaiting burial; had Ills father but Just died, and awaiting burial, JesuB would not have prevented. Rather he was indicating a father about to die nnd that he would follow after his father's death. Hence tho sharp words of the | plaster, "Let the dead bury the dead." A proper duty, a sacred duty, but not so proper nor so sacred as to have precedence over the claims of Jesus, Matt <1:33; 10:37. Ever Ready to Serve. II. Those who did follow Jesus, 10:38-42. We now turn to consider this little company who were ever ready to serve our Master. From v. 68 we know that not every homo was open to receive Jesus as was this one in Bethany, John 11:1. Though this was Martha's home (10:38), and therefore she felt the burden of hospitality, yet she did not hear the word as did her siBter Mary, Mark 4:19. Martha was occupied with duty and Mary, with Jesus. Martha was occupied with many things. Mary was occupied with tho "one thing needful." The result was that Martha was -"distracted'' (R. V.), while Mary was at rest. Jesus wants his disciples, his followers, to sit at his feet and to learn of him. He knows all about duty's dull demand, but the one thing needful is, first of all, to learn of him. Martha's love prompted the service, but there was doubtless much pride that accompanied it. Jesus, as we have seen, was not cumbered with much comfort, and it is doubtful that he was desirous of a big dir?D t. Jesus does, however commend communion with himself as being, "that good part." Afterwards, when death invaded that circle, It was 1 Martha'that had the most Intimate dealing with our Lord, see John, chap- ( tor 11, hence we conclude that she learned on this day the lesson Jesus , sought to teach, viz., that in the life , of quiet communion (Isa. 30:15) we j shall receive that strength that is ab ] solutely essential, If we are to serve him acceptably. We must not allow ] the dally, legitimate demands of duty , to interfere with a life of full, free, fellowship with the Master. Summary?It has never been re- , corded that Jesus ever complained of j the hardships of life, yet he had his | intimates who were glad to minister to \ his needs. The call to companionship ] with Christ, the call, "follow me," is j the most stupendous program yet presented to man. The perfect disciple. , as well as the ideal woman, is the one , who is a blend of the divergent char- ( acters of Martha and Mary. It Is at ] the feet of Jesus we are to receive that \ equipment which is necessary for ef- ( fective service. "Making excuses takes \ much time that had better be put into , 'making good."* t , V M JU M I __ v.

There Is, on the average farm, too much of a tendency to make the ration unbalanced by feeding too much corn In proportion to the protein feeds. Corn, while one of the most Important hog feeds, Is unbalanced. There Is too high a proportion of carbohydrates to the protein present. A pig fed on a ration of corn and water gained 11 pounds In 180 days. The ration must build tho hog In flesh and Size at the same Mme, for It must have a good framewortc to carry tho load of meat that Is necessary to pay a profit at selling time. To build this framework, an abundance of protein feeds are required, and one of the cheapest and best of these Is alfalfa. WASTE FROM DISEASE Loss in Animal Prduction Reaches Large Totals. Estimated That Fifteen Per Cent., or $45,000,000, of Annual Value of Egg Crop Lost Through Improper Methods of Handling. (Prepared by the United 8tates Department of Agriculture.) The amount of waste in animal production has reached very large totals, according to the department of agriculture. For example, it is estimated Lhat 15 per cent., or $45,000,000 of the annual value of our egg crop is lost 3ii account of improper methods of tiandling. Of this amount, one-third, nr $15,000,000, is duo to "blood rings." Blood rings are dead embryos, and an embryo can only develop in a fertile egg. Hens which do not run with male birds do not lay fertile eggs, but they lay Just as many eggs as if the males were with them. The presence of male birds, and that alone, causes all the blood rings in the eggs of commerce. Practically all of these eggs ire produced on forms, and farmers can, therefore, add materially to the national food eupply by eliminating the fortile eggs from the trade. A much more important waste is the unnecessary loss of young animalB. Take pigs, for example. When a sow farrows from five to ten pigs, the owner doeB not grieve if three or four of them die. Probably 30 per cent, of all pigs farrowed alive die shortly after birth from various causes. If the litter does not number more than ten, the sow can readily raise them all. Why, then, allow four or five pigs to die from lack of attentlc i or suitable quarters? Most little pigs die because they become chilled at or soon after birth. Sows should therefore have dry quarters for farrowing, sheltered from winds, with plenty of bedding. Tliie does not mean expensive quarters, but dry and protected ones. Although the domestic animals of the United States are doubtless quite as healthy as those of any other country, the waete from disease and paraBltes is enormous. Attention has frequently been directed to the condemnation of carcasses and parts of carensues In federally Inspected abattoirs. I^argo as Is thie direct loss in our meat supply, It Is Insignificant when compared with the actual losses on farms. Hog cholera, Texas fever, tuberculosis, infectious abortion, scabbies and other parasites cause losses Amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars annually, not only directly In the deaths -of animals, but Indirectly In diminished vitality and feeding value of those which do not succumb. Their prevention Is a matter of sanitation, largely In the hands of the average farmer. The use of more economical and rational methods of breeding, raising and feeding live stock le Imperative for the maintenance of the industry on high-priced lands. Oraln can no longer be fed to meat animals with a lavish hand. Hay, fodder, silage and pasture aro the cheapest feeds and will carrf animals along with minimum of grain. The use of straw and roots is coming. The farmer who keeps the frames of his young animals developing on these cheap feeds, withholding the full-grain ration until the finishing period arrives, will profit by such a practice. The education of the farmer, to appreciate duly the importance of live itock In the maintenance of soil fertility, also deserrem attention. The ESngllsh and Scotclr system, to feed for the manure, la sound. If farmers In those countries break even on their feeding, without calculating the value if the manure made, they rightly rewird the feeding as profitable. 3RT MILL, SOUTH CAROLINA \TI0N FOR THE HOGS T ' / #p^=*cT One, Fed In a Dry Lot on Corn and 180 Days; the Other, Properly Fed ounds In the Same Time. Clover Is a close second, and cowpeaa take a high rank. Hogs can be fed alfalfa just as profitably In winter as in summer. Experiments seem to indicate that the proportion should be about nine parts of corn to one of alfalfa. This proportion of protein feed is enough to keep the nnimalB growing well, and forming the framework that is essential for profitable pork production. Ash is a material which enters largely into bone, and corn is deficient in this material; and the ash corn does contain is not especially available for the ubo of the hogs. About forty per cent, of the dry matter In the bone is lime, and corn is very deficient in this material. The grain contains .15 of a pound of lime in every 1,000 pounds. ' PROFITABLE GAINS IN SHEEP Food* Best Adapted for Animal* are Clover andvAlfalfa Hay, Supplemented With Grain*. Sheep must have clean water, clean feed racks and pens and sanitary surroundings If they are to make profitable gains. The bedding should be liberal and should be changed frequently and not be allowed to become foul or damp, for sheep will not thrive unless kept absolutely dry and afforded pure air. The foods best adapted for sheep are clover and alfalfa hay, all that will be cleaned up at a feeding; corn ensilage about four pounds to each head, or roots when ensilage Is not availnble, and two quarts each of wheat bran, oats, peas or corn, and one part oil cake, or one part wheat bran, one part cornmeal and one part ground oats, supplemented with about one small handful of ollmeal to each lamb. Many feeders prefer to feed the grain whole, and generally It will produce better results, although many feeders still cling to the Idea that tho sheep, as well as some other farm animals, will derive more nutrition from ground grnlns. The choice of the grain foods will depend to a certain extent upon what kinds of home-grown foods are available, and the rations should bo made up with an eye to economy, as well as to that of producing the most rapid i gains. It Is Important that those who feed lambs should have proper accommodations for them. Don't neglect to give the harness a cleaning once In a while. N The feeding value of alslko clover is about the same as that of red clover. * Don't expect your horses to relish their feed, unless the mangers are clean. * Farming Is mankind's greatest industry, and the soil its greatest physical aesot, Keep the hens comfortable. They don't mind a little cold if the quarters are dry. The best place for manure after it is taken from under the animals is out on the land. It is the individual cow in the dairy that helps along with the profits and not the name. * * Soft shelled eggs are caused by too fat layers, or a lack of shell producing material in the ration. * ? Don't give your horses patent medi cine that you know nothing about, especially colic remedies. ? # Don't give large amounts of water to horses at one time. Small amounts frequently are much better. * ? + The Interior of the bam is the place where the milk Is handled. Have this clean and kept In good shape. He sure tho flock has plenty of fresh .water. If the sheep drink from springs, keep the approaches dry. ? * Dock every lamb, ewes when they are from eight to fourteen daye old, and ram lambs from Ave to seven days after castration. It Is far more economical to grow an eight or ten-pound fleece on one sheep than it Is to grow the same number of pounds of wool on two or three sheep '*?. ' V ?> *> .^c / ~" L KEPT HIS HAT ON WHILE IN CHURCH Everybody in the Congregation Became Nervous When They Observed the Wearer. Put-In-Bay, O.?Members of one of the churches on South Bass island did not say \\,hy they failed to speak more emphatically to John Doe Smith, sixty-five, when he wore his hat during divine service the other Sunday evening. Perhaps it was because, a week before, he rowed over to Middle Bass in the teeth of a gale and threw a couple of trespassers off his land. They gave no reason. And his name really isn't John Doe Smith. Bat everybody in the congregation became nervous upon entering the church to observe Mr. Smith, his derby hat on his head, sitting on a | ^ | Everybody Became Nervoua. splint-bottom chair, tilted back against the wall near the last row of pews on the left of the entrance. It is no more customary on South Bass Island than anywhere else for gentlemen to wear their hats In church. Pious members of the congregation breathed a sigh of relief when, at the start of prayer, Mr. Smith reached up for his hat. But after scratching his partially bald pate ho replaced it. He was seen to take somothlng out of his pocket, pull the cork and take a swig at it. That swig was too much. One of the deacons went to Mr. Smith and asked him why he kept his hat on In church. "It's nobody's business," answered Mr. Smith. "If I want to wear a hat in church, It's nobody's business but mine." Then he went out. Since then he has been busy trying to convince the sisters and the brethren that he has not committed the unpardonable Indiscretion of sampling tne chief product manufactured on the Bass islands. STEAL HOUSE; LEAVE LOT Thieves Move Building While Owner Is Away and Detectives Find It After Search. San Francisco.?Mrs. A. M. Gallagher purchased a house and lot In Fifth avenue, Elmhurst, across the bay, three years ago, paid taxes on It and rented the place some time later. She left the city, and upon her return boarded a trolley car to inspect her property. She found the lot intact, but the house was gone. After searching in the vicinity a short time the excited woman visited the police and detectives were assigned to the case. Several houses narrowly escaped arrest, but the owners were ablo to prove property in each case. Finally, Mrs. Gallagher wae able to identify her house, which was located upon a piece of property severnl blocks away from its original location. The family living in it told the police they had purchased the house and lot. Pending a settlement of the muddle the police do not know whether to charge the guilty persons if caught with grand larceny or file a complaint for violation of an ordinance which loroias nouse-moving without permission of the city council. JUST SQUASHED THE BANDIT Heavyweight Woman Simply Sat on a Holdup Man Until* Help Came. Pittsburgh, Pa.?While walking to her homo, Mrs. Josephine Smith, who weighs nearly 300 pounds, was attacked by a man. Mrs. Smith threw her assailant to the ground and sat on him until the police arrived, and when the prisoner was taken to the station It was found that one of his libs had been broken. Kearney had jumped from a doorway at the woman and grabbed at her handbag. "Have a care, young man," warned the woman. Kearney laughed and grabbed the handbag from her. To the surprise of Kearney, the woman nipped him by the back of the neck and threw him on the pavement, then sat on him. The holdup man was in distress when the police arrived. "I am glad you're hare," he said to the policeman. | n n, ^ ? vv " - -TV l?v *'*' v " - r .^"v\ ' * "'v.t - ' - ^ "i'lCSy -* ? -v 4 '* ;"V'-CHILDREN LOVE SWOF FIGS It Is. cruel to force nauseating, harsh physio into a sick child.
