E. . Church. * Besides tbo usual congru- , Kon of adults, was a large representsof children who were quiet and orlerly, listening to the exercises, of the hour. They seemed io have lift the ' restlessness of youth behind them and 1 come to the sanctuary to hear and learn " bow to become workers In the church ' themselves in a lew fleeting yean. Pastor Manchester was present, as-lsllng t Superintendent Reeves In the discharge t of hit duties. The choir lent interest to v the services .by rendering some popular i •acred songs. Hannah Shaw, Eva Eld red re, Lulu Baflev; Eddie SUtea. Joseph Wellman and May1 Souder made . red unions appropriate to the occasion. , Mr. Manchester related ■ pleasing locident of child life, and H. W. Hand talked upon the subje. t of "Sympathy." The service was concluded by the congregation singing "Praise God from whom all blessings flow." This and similar meetings show what Interest dusters abdit child life- The truth a com to be that in them age oounls for nothing. Pastor MeCurdy'a Thanksgiving sermoo was one from which all who heard h con! d get something of use and profit. If rightly exercised thereby. It was a plain, practical discourse, bri'litag with Gospel truth, and roon aptly illustre'ed by the personality of the preacher. His remarks upon intolerance were peculiarly telling and. we doubt not, will be productive of much good, although the spirit of fraternal feeling, as • mtral thing, obtains in our section.

Subject, " Luke the beloved physician." Emil Thiclens. president of the Cape Driving Park, was at the Cape for couple o( days early in the week looking after the interests of the company. Since Mr. ThTeichs lias been elected to the presidency, the Pa-k Company has succeeded in effectingarrangementswith the General Manager, Mr. Edmunds for the early completion of the grounds. We quote from'the Atnfriatn Orocrr of Nov. 10, from a letter written to it by D. D. Cone, sugar machine builder, of Washington, D. C.. concerning the present status of sorghum sugar manufacturing in South Jenny. Among other things Mr. Cone says; "f have b-en making a special study of the New Jersey sorghum sugar experiments for sex-en years past, and on the 28th of last month went over to the Rio Grande experiment station, near May. to sec the result of seven year's work. The severe frosts here of October 16. killed sweet potatoes, hut sorghum • scaped unhurt. Ice half an loch thick was formed in the forghum fields here four weeks before my arrival, and vet I found lire Rio Grande Works in blast, even turning out more sugfr per acre than over. One meant- ed Dehor sorghum cane worked separately in presence Oct. 29,^ and ^weighed byyielded 1.970 t -minds of Aral ami 1 12 gallons of m- lasses. Thlsj equally good and some even bet--was grown in the neighborhood. ' •'A doxeu measured acres of cane taken at random from farms in different parts of the county. So there could be nrt trouble in getting a fair average. The cane of each acre was cut and worked separately, and the sugar weighed under the sop- rvitdnn of Dr. '•The object of tlic management was object of management -

to obtain a fair average yield per acre , could be depended upon, rather than an exceptional yield. Had they ^ selected the measured acres from the s farm-, they would have surely secured a maximum yield of a least 2.500 pounds of first sugar aud 190 gallons Of P molasses par acre this year, beyond a u donbt. This estimate I am confident Is " not too high. And I am also sure that 1 maximum yield in New Jewry next R yexr will reach fully 8,008-flfAnds of n sugar and a proportionate amount of moiaate<. and In til# course of the rt next five years 4.000. pounds per acre, t! The experiments here for the past seven S veara full* warrant this estimate.

Manager and Special Superintendent 1 of Machinery, independently of either r or national Government control, i but with the friendly co-operation and I advice of Prof. Geo. U. Cook, Director, and Dr. Arthur T. Nealc. Chemist of the Jersey State Agricultural Experiment Statl-n. The Bute of New Jersey ( paid a small bounty on the sorghutp until two years ago. and Congress appropriated abont *8,000 In aid of the experiments this season, but neither the or national Government lias any I control. , ' "The management followed very much the methods adopted by the first - Napoleon In developing the French beet | sugar Industry. By careful experiments and improvements, both in cultivation , and machinery, they have in the course of seven years lncreasca the average jleld of dry sugar per acre about five"Tbe New Jersey station will, beyond a doubt, bring iU annual yield of sorghum per acre up to the tropical cane yield. Its officially ascertained maximum yield this year being 1,970 pounds of flrat sugar and 119 gallons of molasses one acre of 17 tons and six hundred and twenty-five pounds of unstrippert cane. Cane was grown upon a number ot fields that, io the estimation of good judges, yielded 15 tons ot cane per acre, bat it was not cut and worked by measured acres separately, A fair estimate of the maximum yield in New Jersey • this year should be put down at 8,800 ' pounds of sugar per acre."
