out it they could climb to our decks |

Uur luckiest tind in the way of de- feuse wus some barbed wire fencing stuwed awuy in the cargo. We stretched it uround the guuwale, We didn't consider ty sufficient to keep off an evemy, but excellent for purposes of delay. We put two rows, one above
,_ the other, from stern to midsbips in
order to make ft easier for the bincks to attack us aft, thus concentrating them to our advantage.
We bad two couplings on the boilers and hose enough to reach any part of the ship from both couplings. By sunset we had all our dispositions The captain was in command. The first officer was to work the port
and J the starboard bose. The arms ,
were distributed among the white crew. The Asiutica were kept in the hold.
As the evening approached they be gan to cry to be let vut, uot relixhing being murdered like rats in a trap. And they alsu feured that the blacks might set the ship atire or let the wa- ter in ob them to drown them pald no attention to them, and they finally becage mure quiet.
Loug befure the sun surrendered the day tu the muon we bad everything
in readiness to repel bourdera. Open: |

SIR EDWARD GREY MAKES A FORCIBLE SPEECH
In the House of Commons the For. eign Secretary Makes a Complete Siatement of Negotiations With the German Ambassador—He Un. flincningiy Upheid the Attitude Taken vy the British Government.

At the outset Sir Edward told the House tnat Herr Von Kiderien-Waeci. | ter's disciosure of the conversations which had taken place between tne! German ambassador and himseif had | taken him by surprise, In diplomatic | procedure it Was most unusual to make public any such conversations without consulting the other party, and knew notuing whatever of Herr) Von — hiderlen-Wuechter's intention until he read the published account.
He did not make any complaint, | however, as he understood the ex-! igencies of the situation in Germany | precluded any #uch consultation.
Herr Von hiderlen-Wavchter’s state. ment was not complete so that he (Sir| Edward Grey) was under no necessity | of putting the part taken by the Brit | ish foreign ottice before the House of | Commons in a fuller manner.
The communication made to the} British foreign office by the German! ambassador, Count Paul Motlff-Met- ternich on July 1 in regard to the de- spatch of the German gunboat Panth- er to Agadir, in southern and the ambassador's explanation in| regard to that matter, continued Sir! Kaward Grey, made it clear that Ger- many regarded a return to the status | quo in Morocco as impossible, and that Germany's real object was a de- finite solution of the whole Morocean question,
On July 3, Sir Edward Grey inform: ed the German ainbussador that) the situation created by the despateh of) the Panther to Agadir was so serious and important that it must be dis. ecnssed ata cubinet council, and on duly 4 he told Count Metternich that Great Britain was not able to take up a odisinterested attiud ring Morocco, hor to recopulsze tiew arrangement Come to sent,
A silence followed, and the next eon- versation between Sir award Grey and Count Wolfi-Metternich took place on July 21, when the British foreign secretary told the German aime bassador that the British government adhered to his statement made on duly 4.) Sir BKaward Grey and Count Wolff-Matternich oon that occasion that the British govenment knew that a rectifieation of the Congo frontier Was proposed as the basis of a setle- ment between Germany and Franee, and said he thought the matter might be arranged on such a basis without affecting British interests,
“We shall be very glad if this hap | pens, and in that hope that it would |

had been made anxious by the news regarding the demands whieh the Ger. man government bind made from the French government, whieh in effect meant a cession of the Freneh Congo, | and which it was obviously impossible
for the Freneh yovernment to con. cede, T pointed out that the Ger- mans were in the closed port of Agadir, that they were landing and
negotiating with the tribes and for all
we knew might be aequiring con- cessions, Tt might also be that the German flag had been hoisted at Agadir, which is the most suitable
port on that coast for a navel base.”
Sir Bdward) Grey pointed out to Count Wolf-Metterniteh that in the event of the negotiations with France failing Great Britain would be obliged to tuke some step in order to protect British interests,

J. E. Maynard Describes His Method | of Raising Prize Winning Wheat
Among the guests of honor at) the banquet to Seager Wheeler, who won | the first prize of $1,000, was J. Ke} Maynard, of Deloraine, Man., winner | of the third prize for the best sample | of hard red wheat at the recent land | show in Madison Square garden, New | York city. Mr. Maynard was one of |
[the early settlers in the provinee of |
Manitoba, having gone there and tak: | en up a squatter’s claim before the | Dominion government survey was | completed, |
“LT have been growing that) same seed for 14 years now,” declared Mr. Maynard, and T believe the seeret: of | my success is that T have been exceed. | ingly careful about selecting my seed and TP believe that this is the most iin- portent of all things in the growing of wood grain.’
Fourteen years ago a man named Harkney brought a ecarlond of Red Fyfe seed wheat into Manitoba from Minneapolis. Mr. Maynard bouglit some of this and has been reseeding from it each year for M4 years, and during that time he has captured $2,500 worth of prizes, besides four silver trophies and four sweepstakes, two at Winnipeg and two at Brandon. |
“You had better say that it was on!

'
jmy son's farm that the prize grain was
grown,” declared Mr. Maynard, who celebrated his 80th birthday last year. “You ought to give my son, Thomas | Maynard, the eredit, for he does all} the work and grows all the grain) how,” i
“A farmer should always keep a! good supply of seed on hand, so that} when a bad season comes and the} season is poor he will always have | good seed to plant for the next year,” | he said. “T have planted the very best IT could get always and whenever | our grain was particularly good I put aside sufficient to last for a number of | years if necessary.”
The process of agriculture employed on the Maynard farm is not unusual. | The seed was sown three inches deep by a press drill, When it) had come | above the ground a harrow was pass- ed over the field once and then, with good weather conditions, Mr. Maynard
jalways had a good harvest, so he de-|
clares.
Never has he sown wheat on a piece of land oftener than once every three years, After a crop of wheat he grows | onts or other grain, and then summer | fallows one season,

GOOD PRICES FOR FAT CATTLE
Quality of Beef Offered to Consumers Better Than Ever Before in History of West

Chapter v tells of a great) wrong tinong the Jews themselves, for some were nolding: tortgayes on the lands

On the contrary, he ted at his own table 150 Jews ond rulers besides those who came from the nations about them, and all this
at bis own expense | Chapter viis a record of his enemivs froin without who earnestly sought to do him personal harm First they thought to do him mischief by enticing hin to meet them in one of the vil- jluges in the plain of Ono. It is ever jtrue that the wieked plotteth against the just, wateheth the righteous and seeketh to slay him CPs. xxxvii, 12, ’2). But the Lord shall laugh at jhim, for He eeeth that his day is com- jing. Every ehild of God must expect to be hated by the world and to suffer jtribulation and persecution Glohn xv, / 18-20; xvi, 99; TE Tim iii, 12), and it should be aeeepted as a gift from God land a special privilege (Phil. i, 29; I | Pet. iv, 12, #4). | Nehemial¥s seply to the first temp- {tation, in verse 3, is worthy of imita- }tion by all earnest Christian workers j who are asted to turn aside from that jto which God has called them: “T am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down, Why should the work cease while | leave it and come down to you?’ It is always a wrong kind jof coming down to leave any work |directly for God, which He has in- trusted to us, to confer with world- | lings or even to-attend some kinds of lcommittee meetings or so called min- jisters’ meetings which do not profit. |All coming down from any form of | pride or self is always right and prof- litable, for our highest place is lying jlow atuour Rewdeemer’s feet, and the ard alone nvust be exalted, and with | Him alone must we be occupied,
Four times they tried in a similar way to entice Him, but he was en abled to resist them every time (verse ). An old hudy who endeavored to find something good in every one and jeverything was once asked if she ever jsaw anything good in the devil, She ithoughtfully replied, “Well, he is very |persistent.”’ These enemies of Nehe- miah were evidently in his employ, As to Nehemiah, he was steadfast, un- jmovable, abounding in the work of the j Lord, Knowing that his labor was not in vain in the Lord (i Cor. xv, 58) The tifth temptation was in the form jof an open letter by Sanballat’s serv.

the Hudson Bay Railway made in the years WO and Ith, by the Forestry i Braneh of the Department of the In- terior, shows that there is not enough mature timber along the line of tha railway to build the road. There are no prairie districts of any extent along the route, there are trees everywhere, but owing to repeated fires the forest is, except on the nearest fraction of the area, too small for purposes and unless it ean be protect. ed from fire until it reaches maturity, will never be of any use to the coun. try. Explorations in’ other parts of the northern forested distriets tell the sume tale. Everywhere fire has work ed havoc, and the forest i< a mere wreck of what it might have beon if fires could be prevented.
