SENATORS AND SECESSION
Republicans in Congress recently
came near admitting that secession
was right. It came about in this way.
They were discussing one of the reservations
of the Peace Treaty relating
to the condition of Ireland and
expressing sympathy for her aspirations
for freedom from English rule
and domination. The aspirations for
freedom and independence were approved
by leading Republicans and
Democrats. The assertion of "the
right of self determination" was admitted
by those statesmen, but Senator
Lenroot of Wisconsin, saw where
this contention was leading, and, referring
to the discussion of the reservations
as applied to Ireland, made
this statement:
"The doctrine, as was admitted by
every one who spoke in its favor, was
not the doctrine of the Revolution;
it was the doctrine of secession; the
right of self determination of a people
belonging to or forming a part
of a nation; and, if it is true, the
same doctrine must be applied today
to the right of New York or tin* right
of California to secede from the Linion,
if they desire, under the doctrine
of self determination."
Senator King, of Utah, said:
"The men of the South chose the
wrong word; instead of calling it 'secession'
they ought to have called it
'the assertion of the right of self determination.'
"
So, there you are. After all these
years, after all the denunciation of
the South, after all the bloodshed
and horrors i>f it/nv h..r?. ....
- nil lil
Congress a discussion in which
"the right of self determination"
or secession is
admitted. Of course the South has accepted
loyally and sincerely the results
of the civil war and has no
wish for the return of ante-bellum
conditions, but, ait the same time, it
is worthy of note and somewhat satt
isfying to find statesmen from the
North and South admitting in the
United States Senate that "self determination"
in Ireland is on the
same plane as "secession" in the
South .
Verily, "the times change and we
change with them."
A NOBLE TRIBUTE
In at recent speech in Congress,
Senator Pou, of North Carolina, referred
to the efforts to discredit President
Wilson because of the intention
to get up ai political issue for the
Presidental campaiign. He denounced
this trick in scaithing terms aind showed
how dishonorable it was, in view
of what President Wilson has accomplished
and whait he was trying to
accomplish, though handicaippcd by
unlooked for opposition.
"He hais done nothing selfish, hut
he* led America to heights to which
she liii l never attained before. Splendid
jis her traditions are; unselfish as
she has always been; high and lofty
the purpose which she hits always cherished,
never in her history had she
obtained such splendid heights its
were touched under the leadership of
this immortal American.
"Why this turning away now from
the splendid ideals for which the boys
fought? There can be but one answer.
The President must be discredited
in the eyes of the world if the Republican
Party is to win another victory.
You saw him at once step into
the leadership of the world. You
heard the great men of Kurope cheerfully
acknowledge his leadership. You
saw him held up as the apostle of
democracy and peace. You knew that
it was a title which was rightfully
his. Point out one single act in his
career from the day he took the oath
as President down to this good hour
of which America may not be justly
proud. It'-count the splendid things
he has done. Measure after measure,
ho riKnu'o is, so just, so necessary that
it was impossible to hold organized
opposition against their pasage, That
is the record of this man. You feared
that his leadership had become so
powerful your party would be permanently
di placed from power. Shame
upon 111 men who have enquired in
the plot to discredit this great world
leader. The damnation of history will
be upon you, and in my humple judgment
your damnation by the American
people is very near at hand.
"We do not linger long upon the
stage of action. It may be that my
career as ,i public man is drawing to
a close. Jt may be that in the years
to come some descendant who bears
my name will read things we do here
and now. I put in the Record my protest
against assaults which have been
made and are being made upon this
great American in the White House,
I put in the Record here and now
the pride that I feel in following hi?
leadership."

lOW AND WHEN TO USE TOPDRESSERS
ON SMALL GRAINS
We are convinced that on the averse
lands of the cotton belt topircs-ings
of nitrate of soda and sulfate
of amonia usually pay well,
iowever, that best results may be
tad, these fertilizers should be applied
at the right time, since if they are
.pplicd too early, much of their valic
may be lost by leaching before the
plants can use them, while if they
ire applied too -iate the crop may
. each maturity before the nitrogen in
n the top-dresser is mostly utilized.
Nitrate of soda and sulphate of
mrnoni.i are about the only niat"rids
we would recommend for topdressing
and small grains, and since

?The Power of Personal Inlluence.
I. The Occasion of RuthS Choice.
(1:1-15).
On account of the famine In Bethlehem-Jutloa,
Naotnl with her husband
and two sons sojourned In the land
of Moat). After the death of her husband,
her two sons mnrrled Moabltlsh
women. After a time ber sons died
also. Upon the death of her sons she
resolved to return to her homeland,
having heard that the Lord had visited
his people In giving thorn bread.
Her family went to Moab to escni>e
trouble, but they only got Into more
trouble. It was not till Naomi wns
thus chastised that she resolved to return.
She had the good sense to
recognize that the hand of the Lord
was upon her for good. Ruth and Orpali
accompanied her. This she permitted,
but determined to place before
them frankly the dlfllcultles which
would necessarily confront them. It
was this frank presentation of the
dlfllcultles and her repeated urging
them to go back thnt furnished the
occasion for Ruth's wise choice.
II. The Trials of Ruth's Choice (vt.
10-1R).
Much as Naomi loved her daughtersin-law,
she would not have them go
Into this matter blindly. She wished
them to know the cost of their undertaking.
She told them the worst thnt
could come upon them, then If hardships
came they could only blame
themselves.
Note the dlfllcultles which confronted
Ruth:
1. No chance to get married ngnln.
Naomi told her that she had no more
sons for which she could wait. In that
day to be unmarried was the greatest
disgrace. Furthermore. It was against
rind's law for the Jews to marry outside
of their own people.
2. She must renounce her gods. Hot
Idolatrous worship could not be carried
on In the land where Ood's people
dwelt. This was delicately touched
upon when Orpnh went hack (v. l.r>).
Orpah went back when It was plain
that there was no chance to get a husband.
Now Naomi puts an additional
test upon Ruth, that of giving up her
religion. Naomi's \ery frankness In
denling with her caused Ruth to be
more and more determined to cast her
lot with her. No doubt she learned to
love the true Ood through the life of
this true woman. She was determined
to share Naomi's Journey, her
home, her lodging, her lot In life and
her grave In death, whatever thnt
would be. To crown it all she would
renounce her heathen gods and embrace
Jehovah. When Nuoinl saw that
Ruth's inlnd was fully made up she
nit urging her.
III. The Glorious Issue of Ruth's
Choice.
Ruth was never sorry for her choice,
for:
1. She found the true Hod (v. 10).
2. She found human friends (ch. 2).
As she went to glean In the fields she
was led to the field of Ron/?a man
of wealth and grace. The servants of
Rohz treated her with consideration;
even Roaz gave Instruction for special
consideration to be given her.
3. A good husband and a happy home
(chaps. 3 and 4). She not only secured
a husband, but a man of Hod.
who bad abundance of this world's
goods.
4. An honored place In the IsraelItlsh
nation (4:13-17). Though she had
to forsake her own people, she became
one of n nobler people.
r>. She became a link In the chnln
of Christ's ancestry (4:18-22; cf. Mutt.
1 :.r?). The one who fully decides for
Christ and gives np nil for him shall
get n hundredfold In this life and in
the world to come, eternal life.
This story Is a tine exhibition of dispcnsatlonal
truth;
(1) The famine In the land Indicates
the testing of the Jews; (2) the going
Into Monh, the solourn of the Israellies
among the nations; (2) sickness
! and death In Monh, the chastisement of
the Jews In this present age; (4) the
return to the land, the gathering of
Israel to their own land; (f>) Ruth tolI
lowing, the gathering of the Gentiles
through the Influence of the Jews;
(0) the marriage between Hoaz and
Ituth, the union of the church with
Christ.

BULL ASSOCIATION
How xhey Work Out in
Practice.?Helpful to Largo j
as Weil as Small Breeders.
Clam son College, April 26.?Mork
| and more the usefulness of the coj
operative bull associations is recogi
nlzed as ti.ne goes on and its bone'
flete to the dairy Industry have a
j chanco to becoms evident. The full
results that can be obtained from
such an association obviously can not
appear for several years. It is evident
therefore that since the bull as'
sue 1 at ions tiro of only rscent beginning.
the benefits so far obtained are
only the fore-shadowing of greater
things to come.
The oo-opcratlve bull association
has been carefully planned to enable
a number of small dairymen and l'ar- J
mera who individually could not af- J
ford good bulls, to combine their re- I
sources and buy a few really good |
dairy aires. For example, suppose j
four farmers each have $100 to invest |
in a bull. They are so situated that
they can all use the same bull. The
association makes it possible for them
to pool their resources and buy one
$400 bull, presumably four times as
good as any one of the four $100 animals
that thoy oould buy Individually.
It Is gratifying to see that this thoory
is working out In practice so well that
it applies not only to the dairymen
with $100 available for Investment In
a bull hut equally well to the one
with only $10, or on the other hand
to the one with $500.
Saves the Good Dulls.
The money advantage is the first
thing which attracts the farmer's attention
to the hull association, hut l?y
far the greatest advantage of the organization
in the exchange of hulls
every two yoars by means of which
continued use of bulls can he had until
their value is proved. Statistical
figures Indicate that hulls owned by
individuals are used only to an average
age of about three years. At this
age it is impossible to have nny product
ion records of the offspring,
which is the only real test of a sire's
r.lue. Because of this short life of
the hull It happens over and over
again that dairy farmers have dleoovered.
nfter the daughters hnd finished
a record, the exceptional prepotent
qualities of their sire; and
then, on looking around for that sire,
have made another discovery, a sad
ne. that the search was futile, for
the sire hnd gone to the butcher.
Beneficial to Family Cow Owners.
The average he~d of all the members
of these associations consists of
six cows. Inasmuch as there are
many herds wltli ten or a doxon cows,
it follows that there must be a great
umber of herds with less than six
cews eseh. In fact, town people owning
family cows are often members,
paying their share or assessment of
five. ten. or whatever number of dollars
is required for each cow; and
for this payment they have the use of
all the hulls In the association. Thus
a family cow owner may for a $10 investment
have for a period of 10 years
the use of such hulls as freely a*
though he owned them himself.
Leads to Keaplnp Purebred Cow*.
The claim is made In behalf of the
hull association as an Institution that
It opens up an opportunity for the
small dairyman to do pure breeding.
The figures gathered In the 1919 directory
of bull associations show that
while the number of organizations,
the number of members, etc., have
Increased less than 77 per rent as
compared with 1918, the Increase In
number of purebred cows owned by
members went up 240 per cent, showing
plainly that the bull association
does help the small breeder to do
pure breeding.
No Chance of Loss.
We have still to get the first report
from a farmer to the effect that
h" has lost monev on his investment
in a co-operative bull association, savs
J. P. La Master, Kx tension Service
dairy huwbandmnn. The greatest brsa
tliat ran be sustained from a disbanded
association Is that the wrong Imprnution
which tha community and
other communities may receive mav
prevent them from organizing other
as (relations of tha same kind. For
tb'r, reason. we are anxious to see all
associations organized on the eight
basis and properly looked after, ao
that none of them will disband.
8ugpeetlon? for Succcas.
The principal points to keep In
m'rd for building a successful association
are as follows:
1. Have the klorks well organized,
principally with roference to satisfactory
location of members and the
place to keep the hull.
2. Have the association well organized.
with carefully selected officers,
the principal one of whom la the
secretary. The secretary Is the life
of the association. Ha should be a
dairyman Interested 1n the breed selected
and la breediag generally, and
a man with good business ideas.
X. Buy tha beat hulls possible with
the available money.
4. Provide a good place for the
bull, and keep him properly.
5. Held at least two me'Hngs a
year, the regular annual business
