Ministers Scarce.
Presbyterians Find Young Men Are Favoring
a Business Life.
An unsolved problem before the
General Assembly of the Presbyte
rian Church in session nt Kansas
City, is the scarcity of men for the
ministry.
In the discussion some ol the
speakers blamed state university
and other undenominational institu
tions of learning for turning the
thoughts of students from religious
to commercial currents.
"With four million Presbyterian
communicants," said the Rev. S.
W. Sneed, of Pittsburg, chairman
of the Board of Education, "we
have only 117 in training for the
ministry. Many colleges are yield
ing to the feeling against the min
istry by cutting Greek- and Latin
in curricula as elective courses and
many eveu resent the imputation
that they are denominational insti
tutions."
"Fathers and mothers," said Dr.
bneed, "should be taught that it
was wrong to take their children
to baptism with the mental reserva
tion that they should never enter
the ministry."
The Rev. Joseph W. Cochran, of
New ork, corresponding secretary
01 the Board of Education, said
"We are getting along with just
two-tlurds ot the supply of minis
ters that we ought to have. We
must either supply untrained men
or import them from other denomi
nations."
Tne Poultry Yard.
The deadly louse is at work.
Do not expect the stock to thrive
without any green food.
June is a hot mouth; do not neg
lect the supply of fresh water.
Look out for rats. Do not allow
them to have any hiding places near
the coops.
Cut down the quantity of heat
ing food in the ration, such as corn,
and feed plenty of green stuff.
If you give your hens plenty of
mixed feed, so arranged that they
can sort it over, they will balance
their own ration.
Placing slatted racks over the
water troughs is a good way to
keep the festive ducks from wasting
their drinking water.
Put everything drinkable into
shallow vessels. Fix it so that the
chicks can drink and still not get
their feet into the water or milk.
Don't be afraid to give the chicks
all the sour milk they will eat.
Good for them. If there is any
thing better I have never found it.
Are your chicks bothered with
gapes ? Well, spade up a portion
of the yards each morning and in
duce the chicks to burrow in the
freshly-turned earth, rather than to
allow them access to the rotten
wood yard, where the trouble lies.
Now is the time when the roosts
ot most hen houses are more or less
alive with the terrible little mites.
In kerosene we have a cheap and
never-failing remedy. Soak the
roosts with it from time to time; or,
still better, spray it all over the in
side of the building, reaching every
crack and crevice. It kills wherever
it touches, and the treatment will
save much suffering to the poor
fowls, and money for the owner.
June Farm journal.
Just June.
There's a moon not too obtrusive,
Sort of misty and delusive,
Frequently and opportunely biding, way
Deneam tne ciouus;
And a maiden, sweet and pretty,
Not too solemn or too witty,
Down a country lane a. walking, free
from madding, gadding crowds,
With a youth, in love aplenty,
Probably some fi ve-and-twenty:
And a heart that's lilting "Sweet, oh, I
love you ! like a tune.
Well, the rest is very simple:
lust a si th or two, a dimple,
And a kiss. Ah, these things happen
happen when the month is June I

Methodists Abolish "Presiding Elder"
Conterenct Changes Title to "District Su
perlntendent,"
The time-honored title "presid
ing elder" was abolished on Mon
day by the adoption of a minority
report from the Revision Commit
tee of the Methodist General Con
ference in session nt Baltimore,
recommending that the name be
changed to "district superintend
ent," by a vote of 322 ayes to 210
noes. This radical change of terms
is the outgrowth of a desire to de
note the office more correctly. It
has been felt for a long while that
since the presiding elder is today in
reality a superintendent that this
term should be given him since his
office is no longer merely sacrament
al, but administrative.
A resolution iudorsiug the move
ment started by the Young Men's
Christian Association for the estab
lishment of a mothers' day" to be
observed on the second Sunday in
May yearly, was tabled.
llertafter, the conference decid
ed, Methodist Episcopal bishops
will be relieved of the duty of pass
ing upon charges of heresy which
may be laid against professors in
theological seminaries. These com
plaints, if they come to the bishops,
will in the future be turned over to
the annual conference, of which the
accused is a member if he be a min
ister, and if a layman, to the pastor
of the church to which he belongs.
A report which received careful
consideration before it finally was
adopted was one doing away with
the six months' probation system.
Under the new rule persons mav be
received into the church as soon as
they are recommended by the offic
ial board or by the class leaders'
and stewards' meeting with the ap
proval of the pastor.
It was resolved that the changes
in the discipline aud course of study
shall go into effect June 1, 1903.
The Recreat:on team gave the

WOMANLY WISDOM.
Back and forth in the rocker,
Lost in a reverie deep.
The mother rocked while trying
To sing the baby to sleep.
The baby began a-crounng,
For silent he could not keep;
An d after a while the baby
Had crowed his mother to sleep.
To free a house of mice, sprinkle
red pepper where they are likely to
run in it. They will soon leave.
Don't discourage the boy when
he comes to you with his cares or
troubles. Sympathize with him,
aud thank God he confides m you
The sweetest, purest ornament
that a woman can wear, and of
which she should feel proudest, is
the clinging necklace of her baby's
arms.
You can make pretty and dura
ble table mats of the bottoms of
used grape baskets. Tear off the
sides and cover the bottom part
with white linen or table oilcloth
Hang a palm-leaf fan by each
bed. It is a comfort to have a
breeze at command when you wake
m the middle of a sultry night, and
the cooler air and the regular mo
tion of fanning often soothes oue to
sleep.
Some folks are troubled by pota
toes turning dark after being boil
ed, especially at this time of the
year. If they are peeled an hour
or so before they are cooked, and
left to stand in cold water, they
will keep nice and white.
Butter may be kept solid in warm
weather if put in a bowl that is
covered with a plate and set in a
pan of cold water. Then fold a
towel and lay across the plate with
the corners hanging down into the
water, and put the pan in a cool, if
possible, a drafty place, and the
evaporation will keep the butter
firm. 1
