UNCI JC BAM baa found time to laak Into tbo agricultural pos sibilities of tbo canal zone. u4 he proposes to turn tbe llfMillc atrip of land on eacb ■lda of tbe canal into one big vegeta ble garden. He Intends to see tbat the thousamda of vessels from all over the world passing through tbe canal will be able to replenish their stock of freeh meats and vegetables when they reach the Isthmus without the loea of a minute in traveling time. At present vessels leaving New York for a trip dowa the coast any great diataaoe moat atop at one or two places for fresh meat and vegetables before reaching thetr final destination. Uncle Sam had hia explorers ex amine every foot of ground within tbe ten-mile limit of tbe zone, from tbe Pacific to the Atlantic, including a portion of Costa Klcn on one side, and Panama on the other. The in vestigation has BOW reached the stage where It can be safely asserted there are exceedingly bright prospects for the building ap of a lucrative agricul tural and atock raising Industry along the Panama canal. In addition to the great quantities of fresh meats and vegetables«requlred for steamers passing through tbe canal. It muat be romcmbered there will alwaya be a great number of canal employes living along the line of the canal. The majority of these em ployee will andoubtedly be married, wltJh families and children, and all these mouths will requlro vegetables to fill them. Also a number of minor Industries may be built up along the canal, which will requlro Its quota of human beings, who will also require feeding. lint askle from those minor considerations are the vast number of ships expected to pans through the waterway—some authorities claiming the traffic will be so heavy as to be one continuous line of ships from ono end of the canal to the other during the entire 24 hours. \ About a year ago the investigation was started by the Bureau or Bolls and the Ilureao of Plant Industry working together. Hugh 11. Dennett and WUlUun A. Taylor, two of Uncle Sam's scientific explorers In the de partment. were the men detailed to make the Investigation. In speaking of the farming on the canal and Its possibilities In the luture, Mr. Taylor said: "Though the Isthmus of Panama has been for four centuries the most Important portage of the western hem isphere the lands through which suc cessive routed of travel have passed across It show little agricultural de velopment. Man's Impress on the country, except in tho Immediate vi cinity of the Panama railroad—com pleted In 1851 —and the canal route, which lies close to the railroad through most of Its length, Is chletly apparent through the destruction of practically all the more valuable tim ber trees that made up the original forest." Hugh 1L Bennett, who assisted In the Investigation, said tho most prom ising line of attack upon agricultural problems of the canal zone will be to develop a permanent mixed tropical agriculture with a distinct horticul tural trend. In which hand labor of tropical origin will be the main de pendence for tillage. In this way exist ing and prospective conditions would favor the production of high-priced products requiring regular and fre quent transportation service, such as will doubtless be available promptly after the opening of the canal for nse. "One Important feature," continued Mr. Bennett, -will be the early work- Ins out of a method of mixed cropping In which soli maintaining and Improv ing leguminous Intercrops can be con tinuously used to replace the wild and intractable native vegetation of the present shack-farm agriculture. "Agricultural operations in tbe canal cone are now confined mainly to the meager efforts of the native and West Indian population and are re stricted to patch farming. The pro duction ef local staple products, prin cipally tropical vegetables and fruits, rice aad corn. Is little In excess oI actual food requirements of tbe op eratora. The greater number of these farms, although occupying the smooth er alwpaa el the larger valleys and never distant more than five miles In a direct line tram the canal, are Iso lated aad Inaccessible, owing to the brokaa topography and absence of ftoed highways. They are reached only hy narrow, winding- trails, at no | time pasaabls far vshlciaa and often well-nigh or quite impassable for horses. "There Is plenty or room for ex tension and improvement of tbe stock raising industry. Upon a large pro portion of steep-hill land suited only for forestry and perbaps t£e produc tion of certain fruits, such as pineap ples, mangoes, etc., good grazing can be secured through the establishment of guinea grass pastures. A number of native grasses, such as those which flourish upon the savanna lands, af ford good grazing, while I'ara and Bermuda grass, cowpeas, velvet beans, corn, the sorghum knowif as Guinea corn,' sugar cane, and peanuts do well upon the lower-slope soils and consti tute excellent forage crops. Another good stock food Is cassava, a crop that gives large yield with a minimum of nttention. It might be well to Bay here that fine cattle, particularly the large, strong oxen as draft anlmala in portions of Costa Hlca, are fed al most exclusively upon chopped stalks of plantlan, banana and sugar cane. "In the latter part of the dry sea son tbe grasses of the canal zone are generally so parched that very little sustenance can be secured from cleared pastures. Uut stored forage and crops like casuava, sugar cane, sorghum, banana stalks, etc., could be depended upon to carry stock througb the dry months to the rainy season — the season of green grass and other tender vegetation, such possi bilities for tbe local productloa of forage crops there Is no necessity for tbe present relatively large importa tions at high prices of grain, hay and other feeds by the few who are oper ating stock and dairy farms. At the time of this survey the price of shelled native corn was |2 gold per 80-pound Back, while bran was bringing $2.60 per 100 pounds., It Is not at all sur prising under such conditions that the demand for milk is BO much greater than the supply and that the prices are exceptionally high. Milk from dairy farms of the savannah section is sold In the city of Panama at lis cents per bottle containing one-flftb of a gallon, less than a quart. "Very few hogs and goats are raised In tbe canal zone. A considerable number of hogs and goats are Import ed from points along the Pacifcc coast, and hogs principally from the Province of Chlrique, in the high northern por tions of the Republic of Panama Some poultry Is raised by native and canal employes. In view of the ruling high prices there is unquestionably a good opening for raising both pork and poultry. Away from the noisy activities of canal construction the depredations of wild animals sufch as the tiger cat and Jaguar would ilkely entail some loss to these industries. "Small farming, Including the pro duction of vegetables and choice trop ical fruits, such as the avocado, man go, papaya, pineapple, orange, guava, anona, etc., can be carried on profit ably with the application of intensive methods, coupled with proper care in the selection of crop varieties and soil. "Such a variety of ornamental plants thrive on this 8011 that there seems little doubt that many of these could be extensively and profitably grown for shipment to the United States and other northern countries." For Violent Transit. A recent book by Mr. Edwin J. Dlnglo, entitled "Across China on Foot," contains a bit of practical ad vice- about the manner la which American goods should be packed for transportation In the Interior of China. Conditions are swell that the pack ing should be thoroughly done. The Qermans and the Japanese under stand this; British and American manufacturers are either careless In this respect or Ignorant of what Is de manded by the condition! of trans portation over r&ds that are mainly etgbt-inch tracks along the face or precipices. One of Mr. Dingle's friemg, need ing a typewriter—and knowing the country—wrote home explicit direc tions as to the packing. "Pack it ready to ship," be wrote, "then take it to the top of your of fice stairs, throw It downstairs, take the machine out and inspect, and 11 It la undamaged, send It to me. "If damaged, pack another machine and subject it to the same treatment until you are convinced that you have one that can atand being thus handled and eacap« injury."—Youth'a Coiu [ panion.

MEMORY VERSBS—I6, 17. OOLDKN TEXT-The harvest truly is tlentcouß. but the laborer* are few Pray re therefore, the I.orl of the harvest, that he will send forth laborera Into his Harvest.-Matt. 8:37-38. (This exposition of the lesson jased on the narrative In Luke 6:1 ?/.) Already In our previous lesson* we aave seen Christ as the founder of he Kingdom of Heaven upon the earth, tie was born a king; his baptism was n a sense the Inauguration of the Icing; the temptation, the testing of he king. Being himself thus pre pared, we see him starting out to re cruit the first members of his king dom, who, in addition to being mem bers of the kingdom themselves, should also be Instrumental In enllstr ing others under its banner. In the call of these first disciples, we recognize the essential conditions which were to underlie all subsequent calls of dlsclpleshlp. To discover these conditions should be the purpose of all who teach this lesson. The fundamental condition, or condi tions underlying entrance Into the Kingdom of God, are forever the same with each succeeding generation. "T£e gifts and calling of Qod are without change." * We are told that the "crowds press od upon Jesus to hear the Word of tod." The preaching of the Word of God is always a dt"awlng card. The crowds have not wearied of the preach ing of the gospel, but only of the aver age preacher who falls to preach the gospel. Wherever you find a man who, like Moody, Torrey, Spurgeon, and many others, preaches the Word of God, there you will find the streets full of men and women still pressing to henr tho message. Fire will always at tract those who are cold, and food those who are hungry. So will the preaching of the simple gospel attract the hearts of men for whom It Is pre pared. The world was made for the gospel, the gospel for the world. All great sermons In theJßJble were preached in the open air. If the peo ple will not come to church, then let us take the church to them. If it was not beneath the dignity of Jesus Christ to hold open air meetings, It surely ,cannot be beneath any pretended and assumed dignity we may profess to pos sess. I>st some ministers who, dur ing the hot months of the year, preach to but a corporal's guard, go out Into the open air and preach to the crowds. The best way to reach the masses Is to go after them. Jesus requested of these men the loan of their boats, and they at once complied with the Master's request. In other words> he asked these men to surrender their business for a little while to him. And they did. How magnificently he repaid them Is Been In the miraculous draught of flsliea No man can surrender his business tc Jesus Christ without eventually be ing a gainer by It. He "shall recclvt a hundredfold moA In this life, nnd In the world to come life everlasting." Next, Jesus requires that these men recognize him as knowing moreaboul their business than they do them selves. Ho requires them to do what their own common sense tells them there is no use in doing. This Is evi dent by the answer of Peter: "Lord we have toiled all night and caught nothing, nevertheless," etc. The word "Lord" meaning "shipmaster." Christ required from these men the surrender of their whole lives. They forsook their nets, and their business and followed him. This was final and complete obedience. Ever after thej were to devote their lives to catchlni men, not fish. No man can enlist under the ban ner of Christ, nor become a memhei of the Kingdom of God. who is not willing to make an absolute surrendei of himself and all that he has and expects to be to the Christ and hit | service. "So likewise, whosoever h« be of you that forsaketh not all that ht hath, he cannot be my disciple." O! | course, Christ may not, in fact doet 1 not call upon us all to leave our dally 1 vocation and become preachers or n\i» slonaries. No; ofttlmes he calls upon us to do what is very much harder— to stay in business and use it for him and his kingdom. There can be nc question, however, but that ere we can become Christ's disciples there must be the complete surrender of ourselvei to his absoluto and authoritative con trol. This is the crucial test of Chris tianity. And it is Just at this point ol unconditional surender that many peo pie hesitate and ofttlmes refuse to comply with the terms of disciple •hip. Implied, yea, clearly stated, in this call to membership in the kingdom, was was the consecration of these fishermen to the task of catching men In some Sunday schools, there is kepi what is called a "Fishermen's Roil," on which there is recorded each Sunday the names of those who have brought in new members. It is a great work to bring others to Sunday school and to church; it Is greater still to bring them to Jesus Christ. In the firs! chapter of John we have a detailed ac const of how these disciple* caught their tnft "MT ft* their "shlpau PECULIAR AFTER EFFECTS OF SHIP THIS YEAR.

CHILD'S HEAD " A MASS OF HUMOR "I think the Cutlcura remedies are the best remedies for eczema I have ever beard of. My mother had a child who had a rash on its head when it was real young. Doctor called it baby rash. He gave us medicine, but it did no good. In a few days the head was a solid mtya. a running sore. It was awful; the child crlad continually. We had to hold him and watch him to keep him from scratching the sore. His suffering was dreadful. At last we remembered Cutlcura Remedies. We got a dollar bottle of Cutlcura Re solvent, a box of Cutlcura Ointment, and a bar of Cutlcura Soap. We gave the Resolvent as directed, washed the head with the Cutlcura Soap, and ap plied the Cutlcura Ointment. We had not used half before the child's head was clear and free from eczema, and It has never come back again. His head was heklthy and he had a beau tiful head of hair. I think the Cutl cura Ointment very good for the hair. It makes the hair grow and prevents falling hair." (Signed) Mrs. Francis Lund, Plain City, Utah, Sept 19, 1»10.
