BANK OF RAMSEUR 7 When shipments were interrupted by the war, it was estimated that there was enough Potash on hand in the United States to pro vide two and three per cent Potash in mixed fertilizers for this spring's trade. Some manufacturers had more than enough for these percentages. Since then minor sources of Potash have been fully utilized, and additional shipments from the usual source are still being received. The supply is below normal, but this need not prevent farmers securing some Potash in their fertilizers, nor should it lead farmers to decide not to use fertilizers. There is no reason to return to the out-of-date goods without Potash, although some Authorities may try to "wish" them on us. We have not used enough Potash in the past. The largest annual import of Potash wa? only one-seventieth of the Potash tatrn from the soil by our 191 1 com crnfi and only one-fifteenth of the Potash lost every year in drainage water. Spring crops use from two to ten times as much Potash as Phos phoric Acid. Get as much Potash in the fertilizer as possible. A few firms are offering to furnish from four to ten per cent. There is no substitute for Potash. It may be harder to get just now, but POTASH PAYS. CERMAN KALI WORKS, Chicago, McCormick Block i, AUanto. Empir Uld?.

C liul to the reUm of Saul, which began IJ C. 1102. Tarnish other chronoloKists may differ slightly, this is approximately correct. We may roughly divide this period into the republic ot God and the king dom of man. In the first section we studied the period of the Judges, Barak, Gideon, Samson and Samuel; one prophetess, Deborah; also the priest Ell and his sons; Samuel and ! Ahlah; and Ruth, who was an ances tress of our great hi(h priest. In the second sectloa we considered Sawl the klttf, and a prince, Jonatham, Saul's son. While the lessons may thus be roughly dlrtded, yet we feel that a general review of the charac ters and the principal lesson to be learned from each will perhaps be the most profitable form of review. There are four things to be said about each character and his relation to the events occurring in Israel: (1) The people had departed from God; there was disobedience and a reli gious decline (2) God permitted on the part of Israel's enemies oppression that finally became unbearable. (3) There was repentance on the part of the people and an appeal to God tor help. (4) God raised up a judge who "saved" the people and through this judge wonderful acts were performed showing his power and the favor which rested upon Israel. The adult classes can profitably discuss such questions as. "Why did the people so easily forsake God?" "Why and how did their repentance so quickly lend to their deliverance V" How did Clod help the peojde to return unto him?" "What were the, methods and the prin ciples used in God's punishment of tho people's sins?" "Was this form of r.ovornineiit in votiiie a failure." Coining to the second section, many Questions supgest themselves: "What advantages and opportunities did Saul, the first king, have?" "How did his f-.Pure ! :!?'' "What v a.i the s- : i .J : " - uc i I. . "i .!: !.! i ." o i. ii of .-jujI and the K. -public of Uiul under the Judges?" "What are tho outstanding characteristics of Jona t: an's life and character?" "What g-eat message for today do these characters and thes two forms of ptvernment have?
