The effiipbasis throughout the oji- eniiiK ec<'tlon of this rhuptor, as in- deed throughout the cutire book of I'rovorbs, U on the prlceltMs valut- and infinite Importance of wisdom. Wisdom has been dofined: 'In all tli» compk'x relations of human life and couduct, to know and do God'a will." Wisdom Is to tindc-rst.-jnd, so far as it la per- mitted tu inau't finite iuteUlj;euce, the manifold ada.ptallou and har- mony, the beauty and utility, of 6od's works and ways, and to turn our knowledge of lli»m to practic- al account. In this lesson we have a romai'k- able illustration of the infinitely surpassing value ot paraulal in- etruction, cspociaily in the matters of iruf character and raligiou-i Calth. Rewards of Wisdom Four inevitable blessings are promised in this chapter to those â- who truly and consistently ambraca Buch wisdom In their own life, and let it Instruct thorn in all that they plan and undertake: 1, Wisdom will keep such a P'.rson from trombling; 2, Wisdom will make •uch a man'a life balanced and •ane and healthy â€" whatever he un- dertaken will succeed; 3, wisdom â- will bring honor from hta fellow citizens to such a mau; 4, finally, such a man, as he gous on In yoars, will find his whole life boautified and adorned with a character of atrength. a character tried and test- ed, a heart at pea<;e bfcauae God la known and trustod. Two Paths of Life The father here Inlorma liU son concerning the two paths of life and which one to follow. Prov. 4: 10. 11. Hear, my son, and reoeive my ';,-'yinss; And the years of thy life shall be many. I have taught thoe in the way of wlfldom; I have led thee in paths of uprightness, 12. When tbou goest, thy stops •hall not be straightened; And It tbou runnest, thou shalt not stumble. Widening of the steps is an Oriental figure for the bold and free movements ot ono in prosper- ity, as the straitening (narrowing) of them is the constrained and tim- id action of one in adversity. Vi. Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: Keep her; for she la thy life. 14. Enter not into the path of the wicked, .\nd walk not in the way of evil men. 15. Avoid it, pass not by it; Turn from it. and pass on. 16. For they sletvp nut, except they do evil; And their sleep Is taken away, unless they cause some to fail. 17. For I hey eat the bread of wickedness. And drink the wine of violence. Instruction ot a positive nature urging ttie son to walk in the way of wisdom is now followed by in- struction of a negative form, warn- ing the son to kcop far, far away from the path of wicked men. IS. Hut the path of the righteous Is as th<« dawning light, That shin- eth more and more unio the perfect day. 1!». The way of the wicked is as darkness. They know not at what they stumble. Th» path ot the riKhleous bogins like the light of dawn. 11 Is .nmall Id Its beginning. The new-born Christian is like a rising sun striig- gllng through the ini.sis of morn Life of True Integrity 20. My ."Oil, attend to my words; Incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21. I.,et thorn not d(^part from thine eyes; Keep them in the midet of thy heart. 22. For Ifcey ara life unto those that finil them. And health to all their flesh. • 23. Keep thy heait wilh all dil- igence; or nut of It are the Issues of life. The foiinlalus and wells of ihe Blast were watched over with siwc lal rare. A stone was rolled to the mnnth of the well go that "a spring •but up. a fiiuntalii sealed" lie<^ame the type ni all that Is more Jealous Ijr gunrdid. .So it Is here. The heart !• such a fountain; out ot it flow Uia Issues of life. 14. Put awajr from thee a way- ward mouth, And j>orverfe IVpa put (ar from thee. The Hebrew word here translat- ed ' waywaid" mean* literally dia- tortion, and tha phiaH* Indloateft • twisting of the truth; pervArae 11|M are those that tinn ii^lde from tbe truth. J5.

Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: Remove thy foot from evil. Farm Notes a . a Weeds: Farmer's Perpetual Enemy Weeds are the farmer's per- petual enemy and must be fought continually says John D. Mac- Leod, Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch, Ont. Dept. of Agricul- tu-c, Toronto. It is unfortunate that nature endows weeds with more ability to maintain and per- petuate thcm.selve3 than it does cultivated crops. Here are a few figures as quoted in the "Seed World" showing the reproducing qualities of weeds and the number of years they will maintain their germination: Secd.s per plant nock Pig Weed Mustard I'eppcrgrass Buckthorn Dodder Kmartwecd Sorrell Thistle Li^te 40 yrs., plus •10 >TS., plus 40 yra., plus 40 yrs., plus 40 yrs., plus 20 yrs., plus 25 yra. 20 yrs. 20 yrs. 8,000 12,000 20,000 14,000 2,000 .5,000 2,000 3,000 0,000 In England it was discovered weeds lived in the soil 58 years. Tha United States Dept. of Ag- riculture planted 107 varieties of weeds and 51 grew after 21 years, proving that weeds once in the soil have an e-xccllent chance to produce at some period. Here are a few disadvantages of welds: 1. Kob soil of fertility. 2. Make harvesting difficult. .'). Cut down yields. 4. Reduce quality of crop. 5. Reduce value of land. G.

A Seed Shortage Coming In 1942? Dominion Agricultural Sup- plies Board Believes Certain Bl-ennial Field Roots May Then Be Short â€" Cabbage, Beets, Cauliflower, Parsnips The Seed Supply ConmiUtee of th4 Agricultural Supplies Board, which was formod after the out- break ot war last Septemsber, has bet-n following closely Canadian seed supplies ot cereals, fibre flax, forage croi>s, field roots and garden vegetable seeds. For the seed sea- son of 1940 normal seed supplies wer.) found available and the proa- pocis for 1941 se«d supplies now ar." favourable. Careful investigation of seed stocks on hand, seed imports and exports and contracts for delivery In 1941 and 1912 indicate a prob- able shortage in 1942 ot certain bi- ennial field roots and vegetable crops Including Mangel, Swede, Gar- den B&2t, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Parsnips and also two annual crops ll.-idlsh and Spinach. DUTCH SUPPLlEiS CUT OFF Uespectlve seed shortages trom these crops are due to the cutting off of supplies from Holland and Denmark and to uncertainty as to quantlti&s that may be imported from Great Britain. This situation was reported to the .Agricultural Supplies Board, at the conference with representatives ot Provincial Departments ot Agri- culture, held In Ottawa, July 18 to 21). It was agi-ee<l at that time that as an insurance against possible shortage in 1942 the production ot seeds in Canada from approved seed stocks of these crops of cer- tain definite quantities under a joint plan between Provincial Depart- Dieuts of Agriculture and the Board should be undertaken. The Province*8 Grain Harvest .Western Ontario, Water- Soaked, Is Weeks Behind Schedule â€" Central and Eastern Areas Report Much Better Progress Western and Southern Ontario, water-soaked and with less than half of its spring grain crop gar- nered the first week end in Sep- tember, showed marked contrast with the counties in Central ind Eastern sections of the Province, according to the weekly crop re- port issued by the Department of Agriculture. Carleton, for example, report- ed "splendid harvesting weather." Froiitenac reported "80 per cent of the threshing is completed," while in Leeds "milk production is falling some<\-hat due to dry- ing of pastures." Prince Edward reported "rain is badly needed." Ill Northumberland, more than !)0 per cent of spring grain crops had been harvested. E.NOUGH FEED FOR STOCK? .Agricultural officials were hopeful that enough grain was to be harvested in Western and Southern Ontario to supply feed for stock, but wore not betting on it. They definitely feared that the sections would not be able to produce seed grain for ne.xt s|)ring. Potatoes throughout these entire districts were being at- taclied by blight, and, it were es- timated, scores cf fields would be a tot;!l loss. The survey reveals that hun- dreds of acres of fall wheat, which normally should have bee.i harvested in July, wore still in the stook. Sprouting had start- ed in every county in the two areas. POP â€" The Same Reason Britain Buying Quebec's Eels New Market For Catch Found Previously Sold to Germany and Italy A new m:irket for Quebec's eel catch, which was sold almost en- tin ly to Germany and Italy before the outbreak of war, has been found in (y.at Britain. Hon. Oscar Drou- Ih, tjiiebec I'rovinclal Minister of Tr.^de and Commerce, announced last week. An order of 67,000 pounds ot eel will soon bo shipped to England, the Minister said. About 2,000 pounds ot tbe largest eels will be sent along as samples. The Minister expressed the hope that export of the product would Increase stead- ily. Another 40,000 pounds have been preserved for pos8ibl» sal» to Hi« Department of National Defence aa food for prisoners ot war, the Mlo- Hter said. America bought Alaska from Russia in 1877 for $7,000,000. This Curious World Ver^^r I >Vi^^^ TKE LAK£ NOW ACCOM Ul-ATiNG ABOV.- QOULDER. OAM WILL. CCiNITAIN, WHEN PUUl-.
