' LEE OF VIRGINIA, ampaign for National and Prohibition "Another fourth of the money, for object two, goes to the Anti-Saloon League of America for work among aliens in this country. We must mako ;ood and law-abiding citizens of those foreigners who stay with us, through sducation, literature and Rpeakers in the only language they may know. While harangued by anarchists and booze-advocates they remain a menace to our institutions. These scattered colonies within our borders can be reached only through the systematic and studied propaganda of the National Leagne. "Such of the remainder of the funds as may be determined by the "Slate and National Leagues Is to be devoted to object three. All the wnrli9 n >ur neighbor. Five critical years have demonstrated that we are vitally af Cocted by conditions elsewhere 011 the Siobe. One dollar's worth of liquof will counteract a hundred dollars ot ilie money so generously given to missions by Bapitsts, Methodists, Presbyterians, Episcopalians and othei-s.

"Under object three it will be possible to "clean up" Cuba and the iahamas from the liquor and vice con* agion that is already affecting our hores.

Small grain smuts may be destroyed very easily by seed treatment, say* the botany and plant pathology divi < sion of Clemson College. There waa a lose of 5 to 10 per cent of our small grain crops in South Carolina last year due to smuts. In view of the fact that grains are of very great importance at this time, and in most cases seed from last year's crop is to be used, it is urged that the seed be treated before planting. Enough! seed to sow an acre can be treated for flvo rr> t v yet it may save the farmer a;* hi0h a'? $>20 for every acre of graiu planted. i . . ... i uye is not sivnject so to smuts, but!, to prevent smuts of oats, barley and wheat use only the very best seed obtainable, and before treating be sure to have, if possible, the seed passed through a fanning mill to remove light imperfect kernels and any smul balls that may not have been remove;, at the time of thrashing. For chemical treatment of seed the! following methods have been founli | to be most effective: (1) Take an old molasses or oil barrel, clean well and fill about two thirds full with formalin solution?' one pint of fonnadeliyde to forty gallons of water. Place about a bushel, of seed in a bag and tie near the toy so that the seed will have free move , ment within the bath. Allow each bag to soak in the solution for about ten or P.fte n minutes. After treat ing from fifteen to twcnlv bushels a new bath should be prepared. As' fast as the sacks of seed are treated) ! and allowed to drip they should be | emptied into a pile and allowed to re-j main over night The seed should! : then bo planted at once or dried tC| prevent damor;e. (?) Plaeo thd heed in a pile or? the or in one e-,ul of a wagon body, | 'V<d as you gradually shovel from on<: j pile to n new one the seed should he j sprinkled wl'h the formalin solution j The sbove'ing mul sprinkling of the j seed should be repeated until the seed j are thorou*rhdy damp. Then place j damp ba'"? over the piles and allow tc remain ever "ight. The former treatment is preferable and gives bettor results as the seed r.r"0 more likely to he thoroughly wot. I Yhe above methods may he varied b$ . the use of Milestone (one pound o! \ r>?uestone to four or fl vo gallons ol j water) instead of formaldehyde. Thr i bluestone is likely, however. to prove i more injurious to germination, csoe [ cialiy oat. seed. Materials for making ? the solutions may he purchased at n i ! drug store. i j THE COUNTRY CHURCH j ' Should Serve ttself and farmers by Promoting Progressive Farming. Just as no stream can possibly rise higher than JU source so no church can make progress faster than its people, says l)r. W. 11. Mills, a well-i known Presbyterian minister and pro j fessor of rural sociology at Clemson | 'College. The piety ami spirituality of! the church are in direct proportion to the piety a:?d spirituality in the homes {and in the live; ol' its members. So; also, tlie intelligence and vigor which j the church shows hi supporting the work of its rienominatio \ indicate the average intrfligence and iinancial ai>iiSty of ihe people c.f its congregation ; A live proven meeting allows that sorno members pray at home; a grow: ing Sunday school shows that the people are interested in the welfare of the children and the study of the Bible. Small gifts to missions must mean little interest in missions or little ability to give. i The Country Church and Agriculture. The country church must be inter esitui in good roads, for upon tho | roads the church attendance largely j; depends; in crops, for upon their yield the church income depends. Thus the ( church roots itself in the lives of ^ the people and unfailingly declares ; the prosperity of the community, whether the soil is rich and well pre pared, or poor, stony and neglected. 1 There is an intimate relation between * a prosperous agriculture and a prosperous church. Suppose the crops are in need of 1 rain, petitions are sent up for refresh- ! ing showers. But again, crops wilt ] from bad farm practice?the soil is ;i not in proper condition to retain moisture. Then ought not the church to be interested and take part in teach- ! ing those who can correct this bad farm management and show the way m to more profitable yields? Since opportune rains, the direct gift of God, ? and good farming, the result of sciontifie teaching, alike produce more bi abundant harvests, out of which the church Income is paid, the church r should have a vital interest in both I should not neglect "J"1"*' ???,> Dblaln the rain in answer to prayer; It can secure the larger income from correct farm management only, as if urges its people to heed such teach lugs.
