The experimentation at the Banki pore agricultural station of India with Russian flaxseed resulted in a yield of 480 pounds of the green plant per acre, which stood on the ground be fore it was cut from 3 to 4 feet high. The test shows that while the straw was longer and coarses than the Bel gian flax it was not as good in quali ty. It is believed, however, that with great care in the selection of seed and in cultivation the Indian article can be brought up to a higher standard.

The theme of me senium personal work and in emphasizing some of the qualifications necessary for doing it; he mentioned first. Conviction of Sin, which he said was like a clinched fist dealing blows in the face of God; that it was necessary. that we come back to our belief in its reality and its ruinous conse quences. The second qualification was con viction about the truth. He em phasized faith in the Word of God as an indespensable qualification for personal work; that the spiritual nnwer of the individual could be measured Dy ins uanti m '" of God. He contrasted Dwight L. Moody in Chicago with the Higher Critics and told how that his faith in the word of God drew great crowds to hear him while the Higher Critics had lost their power with the people. , The Word of God, he declared, had been strengthened by every revolu tion of the pick which only con firmed its testimony. The men who fought the word were forgotten. The Bible e the blacksmith's anvil had ! worn out the hammers that had hammered against it. The third qualification he men tioned was conviction as to Christ's ability to save. Salvation, he said, was not a procesn. The way to the cross should be a path often trodden by Christians. Souls are saved by vital connection with Christ and his power as exerted in connection with personal effort. Here he drew a most striking com parison and illustration of a most distinguished lady singer who came to Richmond." She possessed many charms and rare qualifications in the control of her voice, but some one said there was one thing likeing which was soul power. There was really no soul in it. Mrs. Moody in Chicago , sang a most beautiful Christian hymn. She had just lost a little boy and a father and melted all hearts by the soul and pathos in the song. The last qualification mentioned as necessary for pergonal work was consecration. He said "o one could object to being approached by an other who same to them in sympa thetic story of Dr. John A. Broadus, a rule, were more ready to be ap proached than Christians were to ap proach them. He closed by speaking of the unspeakable joy of the heart of those Avho led others to Christ, and related a most feeling and pa thetic story of Dr. John A. Broodus, who in the early experience of his life as a young Christian led a poor negro boy, Sandy, who was a servant, to Christ and the joy which Dr. Broadus experienced in him as his first convert. Dr. McDaniel appealed to all who would engage in personal work to rise and quite a large number re sponded. It is evident that the meet ing is to be run upon a high standard of evangelistic effort entirely free from sensationalism and wholly upon the scriptural method of spiritual force and power.
