There is something wrong with his farming program if in laying out this mr's crops he feels that ho need give d only to the returns from this year‘s labors. If he does not take into consideration as woll the effect of this year‘s cropping upon the fertility of his farm and its ability to produce next yeart and the years after, there is something wrong with his method of planning. In such case, he is trying to make a oneâ€"year business out of what is essentially a continuing busiâ€" moss, caus go in‘o this crop or that, how many acros of this crop or that he shall plant. As a general proposition, it may be laid down that the better the farming ho has been doing, the more nearly all thes> matters have already been decided for him by his farming of the past year and the years before that. In a word, if h> had been doing really careful and systematic farmâ€" ing, the crops that will go on most of bis fields, the acreages of most of his crops, are even now pretty well deâ€" termined for him.

With respect to burning brands from cther fires, particles of soot from chimneys burning out, etc., it may be sald first of all that sheet steel or iron is completely and absolutely incombusâ€" tible, a distinction shared by no other roofing material of comparable cost. It may be pointed out further that a saheet metal roof properly applied has no cracks or cravices through which sparks may be driven by the wind. _ SIEZT MEILL FOR Roors. ‘ As regards the capacity of sheet metal roofing in protecting underlying‘ wood from ignition by heat radiated lieve that it constitutes the most effecâ€" tive lightning protection mow availâ€" able and economically practicable for buildings of ordinagy construction. adequa with j« tance t roof c static : buildin Nieve th It is generally accepted that of the tion from both inner and outer surâ€" w\ 44 fire hazards to which farm buildings fl“:.b 1§fcent f“;:l of sheet mt‘l'F‘b_â€":-flâ€";_kl_-â€";â€"-H__J F i ildi t arage type indiâ€" February ~43. aking Our Homes are exposed, and which may be classi.

E _ Hog grading is receiving less and less opposition as its value becomes beiter understood. The Dominion Live Stock Commissioner reports that many drovers who were at first opposâ€" ed to hog grading have fallen into line and now make their purchases on a grading basis. Demonstrations in grading, the Commissioner also reâ€" ports, have been the.means of convineâ€" ing many farmmers of the suitability o!l‘ the bacon hog for both the Canadian and export trade. Many farmers haw:-I also asked for assistance in the culling of the sow stock and in numerous in-i stances culling work has been followed I by community organization for tbel purchase of fifteen to twentyâ€"five sows of good bacon type. Thereare, however,| still a good many who are reluctant to | be convinced that the bacon hog is the | most desirable and most profitab}e’ type to raise. When Winter‘s at his"~Oldest And coidest, And boldest, Then cometh good Saint Valentine To show that love is burning, And sighing, and yearning, And breathes upon the wintry earth his tenderness divine. When life is at its bleakest, And meekest, And weakest, Then cometh good Saint Valentine To show that love is rosy, And wistfulâ€"eyed and cosy, And breathes on every torpid heart his tenderness divine. they are infusible, nonâ€"fragile, and capable of retaining to a considerable degree their mechanical strength ‘at the highest temperatures encountered in an ordinary building fire. As conâ€" trasted with the shower of sparks and embers, and the increased intenâ€" sity of burning which commonly occur when a combustible roof collapses, a sheet metal roof, particularly if of the locked seam type, tends to hold toâ€" gether and act as a blanket, both beâ€" fore and after it falls, a characterâ€" istic shared in a similar degree by no other practicable building material). In conclusion, it may be said that the combination of lightning protecâ€" tion, spark or ember resistance, resisâ€" tance to radiant heat, and a relatively high ability to resist the spread of fire within should be given due weight, toâ€" gether with other characteristics goâ€" ing to make up the desirability of a roofing material, by agricultural engiâ€" neers when theitâ€"advice is sought as| to roofing practite. | The Mission of St. Valentine. sum total of the influence of roofing on farmstead fire hazards is the exâ€" tent, if any, to which a roof can conâ€" fine a fire, regardless of its origin, to the building in which it starts and reâ€" duce the hazard to adjacent buildings.

Christ loved his Church ‘ in order to make it holy. The sacraâ€" {ment of baptism, by which we enter ‘into the church, indicates that we .should live purified lives,. The words lspoken at baptism, namely, "In the name of the Father and of the Son ‘and of the Holy Spirit," declare that we belong not to ourselves but to God. ; Christ wishes his church to be like a | beautiful lady, shining in the light of |God. He does not look for faults in it, like spots or wrinkles. He sees only ‘the beautiful qualities of his church, | and his purpose is that it should alâ€" | ways be "holy and without blemish," | like the sacrifices which are offered to ‘God in the Old Testament. Vs. 32â€"34,. Paul says that the exâ€" ample of Christ‘s love to his Church is a profound "mystery," that is, indiâ€" cates a truth which only the Spirit of God reveals to human hearts. None but those whom Christ has awakeéned to spiritual truths can appreciate the spiritual illustration. _ Nevertheless, even simple Christians can see that it means that husbands and wives should look on their mutual relations as sacred relations. 11. THE DIFFERENCE CHRIST HAS MADE wWITH RELATION TO PARENTS AND CHILDRENX, 6:1â€"4. V. 1. Christ was a perfectly loving Vs. 28â€"30. This love of Christ shows how the head of the house should reâ€" , gard the lady who is his companion; on life‘s Journey. He, too, should not | be faultâ€"finding, but chivalrous and generous. A man is not to make a| difference between himself and his| partner. Selfishness is a cruel traâ€"| gedy in the home. But love, following ) the example of Christ, brings bright-{ ness into faded eyes, smooths the cruel , traces of care away and transforms the home into a place of genuine hapâ€" piness. P auainl eeattes; V. 31. This is the reason why God at the beginning said (Gen. 2:24) that when a man marries, the obligations of the new home are to take the first place in his affections. _ _ [ But with the coming of the gospel all this changed. New values came to attach to marriage and to parenthood. The home was lifted on to anew plane through the realization of God as Father and the Lord Jesus Christ as Son. Father discovered a duty to be kind and loving like God; sons to be obedient and reverent like Christ. Wherever St. Paul went, he strove to create a new sense of home duties and relations. We can see this by the present passage in Ephesians, which forms our lesson for toâ€"day. I. THE DIPFERENCE CHRIST HAS MADE WITH RELATION TO HUSBAND AND wIFE, 5:25â€"33. | V. 25. The husband is to love his wife, not to tyrannize over her, as the heathen often did, still less to leave her or to divoree her, since Jesus had forbidden divorce, Mark 10:9, Matt. 19:6. Even philosophers among the| Greeks doubted sometimes whether| women had souls. So there was cruelâ€"| ty and neglect on a great sceale. But now Christ‘s love for his Church, creates a new ideal for the husband‘ in relation to his wife. If we think at what a sacrifice Christ loved his reâ€" deemed ones when he died on the cross, it will put gentler thoughts into | our hearts, and we will not only be| kind to our dear ones, but we will! reverence them. Men who have been| selfish will become chivalrous and| noble, and the home will be a different ; kind of place. _ ; cu o February ~43. Making Our Homes Christian, Ephesians 5: 25 to 6: 4.

The spirit of St. Valentine‘s Day is still further carried out when refreshâ€" ments are served. A basket, decorated with red crepe paper, adorns the centro of the table and a streamer of red leads to each place. When the streamers are pulled at refreshment time, each guest draws an individual heartâ€"shaped cake, iced with white _ To mix the crowd and break the ice, there are valentine verses. The girls draw hearts and the boys arrows from a decorated basket. On each heart is written a word and on the arrows words that rhyms with those on the kearts. Partners are found by matchâ€" ing rhyming words. Each couple is then given a piece of paper and a pencil and asked to write a valentine verse of two lines using the two words for the last words of the lines. After the verses are collected they are read aloud and suitable prizes awarded to the coâ€"authors of the best verse. CAMES POR THE PARTY. ‘ A Heart Race is jolly. Each conâ€" testant is given two red hearts about twelve inches in diameter, one for each foot. The racer places one heart on the floor and steps on it. At a given signal the other heart is put in position for the other foot. This race proceeds, a heartâ€"step at a time, to a given point and back. The hearts only: may be stepped on and each must bei lifted at each step and placed again on the floor. Failure to follow these instructions puts a contestant out of. the race.

This same idea is adapted to choosing supper partners. If there is to be dancing at Court, bidding for partners is a source of merriment.

Did you ever think how unlike aro our names for certain countriecs to those which the natives of those counâ€" tries uso? For example the Egyptians call their land Misr, the Finns call theirs Suomen Tasavalia, the Persions know their country as Iran, the Esthoâ€" nians theirs as Eesti Wabsriik, and Palestine is officially Fistip. â€" The Irish Free State is Samorstat Fireann, Japan is Nippon, and Morocco is El Maghreb. That will do for toâ€"day, The size of the club must also be carefully considered. It is better to have two clubs than to get the club too big. For example, suppose the rule is that each member may keep a book for reading two weeks; then twelve books will last for six months. A large club also makes the circulaâ€" tion of the books more difficult. It wovid be possible, of course, to have cach member buy the book she desires as her contribution to the club, but better results can be sccured by having a book committee to select the books. This committee can request suggestions from the members of the club, but in addition they can take counsel of librarians and carefally consider various book reviews. Buyâ€" ing the books in one order, it will freâ€" quently be possible to get a better price than if the books wore bought singly. In sections where public libraries are rare, it is still possible to have an abundance of good reading by forming a book club. Each member of the club contributes the price of one book, and the books are circulated from home to home. h The mother was absolutely nonâ€" plussed for a few moments. She felt really more than vexed that a child so young should have been exposed in this way, especially since she had had to help Virginia constantly beâ€" cause of a natural tendency to think too highly of herself and her ability. She was sorry to see the unaccustomed frown of irritation on the young face and wondered how Mrs. Fields, herself a mother, could take such an attitude toward a child or permit her sister to do so. "Doos Mrs. Fields carefully consider and weigh all her actions and those of ‘her children as I do?" she questioned. "We are both students of Child Psychology, yet I cannot soe that she applies any of her knowledge eithor in training her own children or in dealing with mine." But she pushed the annoying thoughts quickly and resolutely aside and looking down tenderly at her little daughter, she asked, "And what does Virginia think?"

"Oh, what a lovely voice you have, Virginiay you can certainly sing," gushed Mrs, Fields, the owner and conductor of the studio.
