Increased Interest in Building and Fox Farming Noted by Mr. B. I. Rayner Who " Returned RecentlyFrom. Pacific Coast.

Mr. B. I. Rayner, of Albertonms returned from an extended business trip to the Pacific Coast and parts of the ~Uuited States. Mr. Rayner left the Province on December 26th with s stop-off ticket to Vancouver- lle stayed about a week at Toron- to, visited the small surroundin! towns on fox business abd proceed- ed to Winnipeg. lie noticed all

along the route great progress in . building since his visit n year ogo. » This increased activity was not so . noticeable at Winnipeg, owing per-

haps to the size of the city. His business called him to Saskatoon,

Regina, ' Moose I J aw und other places. Hero the bulld- ing boom was also evident.

especially in the vicinity of Big- gsr, now a town of about 2.500 people. '

in conversation with Mr. Rayner, several Western farmers announced

their intention of going in strongly|

for mixed farming, in place ‘of ex- clusive wheat growing. One man had twenty head of milk-cows, with poultry, sheep, pigs and all larni aniin s. He had brought to town that liay n lot of butter which he had disposed of at a satisfactory price and was quite convinced of- the advantages of mixed farming- Tllis man was a foreign immigrant, cultivating a half section of land, 310 acres.

While inilintario Mr. Rayner talk- ed with Mr. _0. Mather a general farmer of Brampton,‘ who was do- ing a successful poultry business with 500 hens. He had ‘just got twelve dozen eggs that day, which

(BV REV. S. D. (Continued) THE PRICE OF POWER The Law Of/Exchlilflo‘

Every man needs power. Every earnest mnn covets power. Every willing man has the Master's pro- mise of power. But every man docs not possess the promised powur. And many. it is to be feared, never will. Many a man’, life to-day is utterly lacking in power. Some of us will look back at the close of life with a sense of keen dis-i appointment and of bitter defeat. And the reason is not far to seek. nor hard to see through. if we do not have power it ‘ls because we are not willing to pay the price.

Everything costs. There is a law of exchange that rules in every sphere of life. it is this, "to get, you must give." it rules in the busi- ness world. if I want a house or a hat l must give th sum agreed upon. it rules in the intellectual

world. if a young mau wants a dis- ciplined mind he must give time, and cloie application. and some ‘real. hard work. it_holds true in the spirit realm. ff you and i wish to have businea transactions in this upper work: of spirit-life we must be governed by this some law. To have power in our lives ovdr sin and selfishness, and passion, and appetite: over tongue‘, and temper, and self-seeking ambltionz‘ to have power in prayer. and ih winning others over from sin to Josue Christ. one must first lay down the required price.

What is the price of power? Turn to Jesus’ k with Peter and the others in the letter part of the sixteenth chapter of Matthew's

of the awful cross-experiences which He oleari esw ahead. Peter

the hardihood to rebuke Jesus. Tho Master, recognizing tho suggestion as coming froura far subtler lu- dividuai than Peter, who is using ignorant Peter's selfishness to repeat the suggestion of the wild- erness, again bids him begcne. Then in a few simple words of far-reaching significance, He states first the standard of power, and then the price to be paid by one who would reach that standard. Listen to Him" "if any man would come after Me, let him deny him- self and tuke up his cross and follow M-c."
