RAISE MORE WHEAT
In this country .there are 180,000
Sabbath schools. Their test book is
the Bible. The word of God is taught
by 1,500,000 of the most consecrated
men and women. These people in devotion and prayer are giving themselves to teaching, of the Bible to 14,^
500,000 pupils,, mostly youth whose
Character is being formed.' • One of
the marvels is the untiring enthusiasm of the bible "teachers, -their marvelous perseverance. This "gracious
propaganda has stimulated' the publication of between;25,000,000 to/30,00Cv
000 copies of the Bible, annually.- Silently the work progresses.
Can Fruit With Less Sugar.
Commenting upon the advance tin .the
price'of sugar, which is seriously .handicapping the housewife in., the present
canning season; Miss Eliza E.rStreet^
in a letter to the Detroit Tim.es, sends
the following recipe for canning peaches, pe£rs and similar fruit?, which,\re-
quires much less sugar than "is usually
called for in cookbook "recipes, as follows:      ""    ■
Make a- syrup in the proportion of
two cups of granulated sugar to four
cups of water and let it'boil five min-
u'tes.v .Drop.in the fruit, which, after
being, pealed, halved and with stones or
seeds removed, has .been placed- in cool
water to prevent discoloration, and cook
in the hot syrup until thoroughly heated
through, -f Place; in sterilized jars and
seal immediately. . Test the tightness
of the jar tops when cold.
"This method of canning we consider
a very simple process," says Miss
Street,, "We-have, used it for years
and have never'lost a j ar of fruit." ,

Mother of. Eighteen Children. " . •
"I am the .mother of eighteen children
and have the praise of doing more work
than auy young woman /in my town,"
writes Mrs. C.J. llartiri, -Boone Mill, Va.,
"I suffered for five years with stomach
trouble and could not eat as much as a-
biscuit without suffering. 1 have taken
three bottles of Chamberlain's Tablets,
and am n6w ti well womaii and weigh'
168 pounds. I can eat anything 1 want
to, and as much as I want andfeel better
than'I have at any time. In ten years,. 1
refer to any one in Boone Mill or vicinity and they will vouch for what fsay.*'

Michigan Farmers Urged to Take Ad-
< vantage of Conditions Abroad.
"An appeal-to the farmers of Michigan
to put put a greater acreage of; wheat
this fall than tever before to make up
for the world crop shortage  which is
sure to result next year because of the
war in Europe is being, made by the
Michigan State Millers association and
is being* considered by the executive
•committee   of    the    Michigan    State
[Grange.     The matter is considered of
j such importance by these organizations
J that they wish the farmers to know the
j true condition how, although a tremendous crop-has just been harvested and
another August is a year away.'"
''The, present war- in 'Europe  will
make a great difference' in next gear's
crops," -.sa'id D, E. Stoft, 'a. prominent
member of the association,
.''It is* expected'that the. wheat crop
*["of Michigan will be a big.one.  ^Because
of the war in Europe, itis believed that
.riext'year we'will >hav«a market for
- every busHel'of winter wheat that can
be raise.d in. this-country. ' Present con-:
ditiohs' make iti impossible in the'wheat
fields of Europe to, prepare the soil or-
put in the usual winter'sowing.   •;'."
"Another factor of considerable importance is-_ the' -poor condition of ,the
corn fcrop this year. Farmers have usually considered corn a sure crop, but
last year there/was a .shortage and this
year the Condition is very- bad which
will show that wheat is as good and
gafe as" anything in the long-run/ A
big; market "being assured, the acres
sown to winter wheat this year should
be very large. - . °~ . \ - '■   _
••"America is in a position thereby it
may have to. feed the world and that
will be of .great profit" to the country.
We mustj be ready, however,? and the
time to begin is now.''.
'"Ididnot understand that pur corn
crop was in such a sorry state as others
report, but.there is no question that
•wheat acreage should-be' increased so
as to to care for the trejhendOus'deniand
that will come next year,'""says Charles
S, Bartlett "of Pontiac.'a member Of-the
executive committee, of the Michigan
State Grange. "The. matter is of such
consequence, that vfe, will take it Up' at
the next meeting of the committee and
consider what had best be-done;" ■
To the citizen's of Washtenaw county:
I wish to express my gratitude ,-for the
confidence shown in me by your -votes
the 25thj and assure 'you that I -will so
con'duct myself that you will retain that
confidence, always/ •
