LESSON FOR JUNE 24
THE PURPOSE OF JOHN'S GOSPEL
(REVIEW READ JOHN 21:15-25.)
REVIEW Read John 21:15-25.
GOLDEN TEXT These ara written,
that you might believe that Jesus Is the
Christ, the Son of God; and that believ
ing ye mipht have life through his name.
-John 20:31.
There are a variety of methods to
be followed In reviewing the work of
the past six months find to give va
riety. Teachers of classes, or super
intendents of schools, may select one
or combine several, as their judgment
dictates. Of course, the easiest way
is to procure a good speaker who is
familiar with the Gospel of John and
the lessons of the past quarter, and
let him bring out in the review its
most outstanding and salient features.
One method would be to have one
minute talks either by members of the
class or persons selected from the
school. Each of twelve scholars could
be assigned one minute, each to have
one of the lessons of the past quar
ter. Another good way would be to take
tire outstanding and significant verses
from the lessons of the quarter, not
the golden text, but verses which seem
to emphasize the outstanding features
of the six months work. "Behold the
Lamb of God," (Ch. 1:36): "Ye must
be born again," (3 :7) ; "Come see a
man which told me all things that ever
I did; is not this the Christ?" (4:29) f
"Verily, verily I say unto you, he that
heareth my word and believeth on him
that sent me, hath everlasting life and
shall not come into condemnation but
is passed from death unto life," (5:
24). "I must work the works of him
that sent me while it is day ; the night
cometh when no man can work."
Another method of review would be,
particularly In the adult classes, to
have each lesson with its present-day
emphasis. For instance, the past quar
ter: Lesson 1 The Christian in his
dealing with blindness. Lesson 2
Modern wonders of healing and medi
cal missions. Lesson 3 The shep
herding of church members. Lesson 4
Do we know how to give? Lesson 5
Is Christ supreme in our national
life? Lesson 6 Ambition and its cure.
Lesson 7 The world's good springing
from Christ. Lesson 8 Temperance
reform. Lesson 9 The Holy Spirit in
everyday life. Lesson 10 How Christ
is betrayed and denied today. Lesson
-11 The uplifting power of the cross.
Lesson 12 Why men believe in im
mortality. A good method of review would be
to have someone take up each of the
golden texts, announcing it in advance
that pupils may be prepared for this
method. The teacher would write the
texts of the quarter, each on a sepa
rate piece of cardboard, and lay them
face down on n table; pupils would
then draw the golden texts, one at a
time, and tell what the lesson is to
which this text belongs, giving as full
an account of the lesson as possible,
the teacher helping out with questions
where necessary.
It will be of great value to the pu
pils if they can get in this review a
dear .outline of the main events of
Christ's, last weeks upon earth, cov
ered particularly by the past quarter.
There are forty standing events of
the past quarters: (1) The healing of
I he man born blind ; (2) Jesus the good

m-ts forth the purpose of this Gospel;
namely, that -Jesus Is the Christ, the

we might hare everlasting life, eternal
Pfe In hi name." (S golden text).
PREVENTS SIDE DRAFT
Illustration Shows How Evener Is
Constructed.
Two Ordinary Doubletrees, Good,
Tough Stick, Two Iron Pulleys for
Strong Chain and Two Braces,
Are Needed.
In response to numerous queries
Wisconsin Agriculturist illustrates and
describes a four-horse evener to pre
vent side draft as follows:
Two doubletrees of ordinary length,
a good tough stick of which to make
the long evener, two iron pulleys which
will let a strong small link chain work
through them, two bolts to go through
tho pulleys, and two strap-iron braces
over the pulleys, will be needed.
The stick for the evener should be
B feet 4 inches long, and the first pul
ley will be put on 7 Inches from the
right end of it, measuring to center
of pulley. Measure 15 U inches from
the center of this pulley and bore hole
for the plow clevis. Now measure
30 Inches from the right end of this
Side Draft Is Prevented.
evener and bore hole for the second
pulley bolt so that the two pulleys are
24 inches apart.
It is best to bore two or three holes
at the left end of the long evener. Put
the first one 3 inches from the end and
the others 2 and 4 inches farther in.
This evener works one horse in the fur
row and three on the unturned land
with no side draft, say those who have
used it.
TELL ALFALFA FROM CLOVER
Formation of Leaf Enables One to Dis
tinguish Plants While Young
Longer When Old.
From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
The leaf of alfalfa is divided into
three leaflets, the middle one of which
has a short stem, differing in this re
spect from red and alslke clovers, in
which the center leaflet is attached di
rectly at the base.
This difference in the two plants
readily enables one to distinguish al
falfa from red clover when the plants
are very young.
As the plants become older the leaf
lets of the alfalfa become more elon
gated than in the clovers. '
METHODS OF DOCKING LAMBS
Burning With an Iron Is Favored by
Kansas Expert- Wound Is Seared
and Doesn't Bleed.
When docking lambs the four feet of
rho nnlmal should be held together
tightly against the body of the. opera
tor, points out A. M. Faterson, instruc
tor in animal husbandry In the Kan
sas State Agricultural college.
There are two methods of docking.
One Is bv cutting off with a sharp knife
and the other is by burning with a
docking iron. The latter is preferred,
psnprlnllv if the lamb has a large tail.
The hot Iron sears over the wound and
prevents bleeding. If the lambs are
old it Is well to tie a string around the
stump to prevent bleeding.
WHY ALFALFA TURNS YELLOW
Examination May Indicate Lack of
Effective Inoculation It Should
Be Cut Immediately.
When for any reason alfalfa turns
yellow It should be cut immediately
and removed from the field. A careful
examination at such a time may indi
cate a lack of effective inoculation,
disease, or the need of lime. Yellow
ing sometimes occurs, however, when
all of these conditions are apparently
favorable to the growth of the alfalfa.
Food for Young Fowls.
Be 6ure that the food for little
chicks, turkeys, ducklings and goslings
Is not only of the right kind but Is ab
solutely free from mustlness or any
suspicion of mold, for such material

BURSTING HEAD OF CABBAGE
Trouble Caused by Rapid Growth and
May Be Prevented by Breaking
Off Some of Roots.
Many persons growing their own
vegetables have experienced consider
able annoyance In having a large num
ber of fine heads of cabbage to burst,
before the vegetable can be used or
marketed.
The bursting is caused by rapid
growth, and usually occurs after a
warm rain which has followed a dry
spell. It is surprising how rapidly the
heads will split and push out from
the center, which Is damaging unless
the cabbage is used at once.
To prevent -cabbage from bursting,
go to each head, and pull it Just
enough to break a large number of the
small rootlets, but not enough to al
low the head to fall or lean very much
to one side. This will lessen the
amount of moisture and food taken
Into the plant and the development of
the head, and consequently the burst
ing will cease. In most cases the cab
bage will remain perfect and unin
jured, and can be sold or used before
any damage results.
Heads of cabbage about to burst, or
even those showing the first split, can
be kept for several weeks, without
damage by simply following the above
Instructions carefully.
SUPERIOR ALFALFA FOR HAY
Best Time to Cut Crop Is When Young
Shoots at Bases of the Plants
First Appear.
In general, alfalfa should be cut for
hay when the young shoots at the
bases of the plants first appear. If
these new shoots become long enough
to be cut off by the mower, the new
crop may be badly damaged. The blos
soms often appear simultaneously with
the new shoots, but blossoms alone are
not a safe guide to the time for cut
ting. CORNER POST ON A HILLSIDE
Simple, Cheap and Satisfactory Meth
od Is Described and Shown in Il
lustration Herewith.
To anchor a corner post on a hill
side, set the corner post 4 feet deep,
the second post should be not less than
2 feet deep and tall enough so the top
will be level with the ground at the
Corner Post on Hillside.
corner post, says a writer in The Farm
er. A wooden brace rests on the top
of the second post and against the cor
ner post at or near the top. A wira
brace fastens to lower end of wood
brace and to corner post at the ground,
and should be nearly level.
DETERMINE ABILITY OF COW
Milk Scale and Babcock Test, Assisted
by Judgment of Eye, Are Most
Practical Means.
The cow is very much like a race
horse when It comes to judging her
nhnirv to nerform. Both the race

means of the eye assisted by the rec

BEST DISPOSITION OF ASHES
Scatter Them In Henhiuse Over and
Under Roosts and Wherever Filth
Has Collected.
The best place to use the ashes from
the range or coal stove Is In the hen
house. Scatter them liberally over
and under the roost and wherever any
filth has collected. Keep the feeding
portion of the house heavily littered
with straw and feed the grain In the
straw. Make the hens work and they
will not get lazy.
Benefit cf Toe-Mark.
If the chicks are toe-marked with a
poultry punch this year, so that you
can tell which chicks are from the
best layers, you can keep watch of
those next season and finally produce
a better laying family.

The Effects of Opiates.
THAT INFANTS are peculiarly susceptible to opium and its various
preparations, all of which are narcotio, ia well known. Even in the
smallest doses, if continued, these opiates cause changes in the func
tions and growth of the cells which are likely to become permanent, causing
imbecility, mental perversion, a craving for alcohol or narcotics in later Me.
Nervous diseases, such as intractable nervous dyspepsia and lack of staying
cowers are a result of dosing with opiates or narcotics to keep children quiefr
in their infancy. The rule among physicians is that children should never
receive opiates in the smallest doses for more than a day at a tune, and
only then if unavoidable. ,. ,

and all, with the fingers.
Not a twinge of pain,
soreness or Irritation; not
even the slightest smart
ing, either when applying
freezone or afterwards.
This drug doesn't eat up
the corn or callus, but
shrivels them so they loos
en and come right out. It
Is no humbug! It works
like a charm. For a few
cents you can get rid of ev
ery hard corn, soft corn or
corn between the toes, as well as pain
ful calluses on bottom of your feet. It
never disappoints and never burns,
bites or inflames. If your druggist
hasn't any freezone yet, tell him to
