and the tongues that could not be
stilled, because they knew their mis
sion and dared to fulfill it.
The modem business enterprise ad
vertises (he world over, while Chris
tianity with the best news ever given
to man has for two thousand years
failed to make it known to the whole
world. We need a zeal like Peter’s,
a determination that will, not quail nor
stop until all the earth shall know
Him.
An Indisputable Witness.
Acts. 4:20. “For we cannot but
speak the things which we have seen
and heard.”
“And seeing the man who was
healed, standing with them, they
could say nothing against it"
Deeds are the indisputable evidence,
and the best witness of a man’s claim.
Nicodemus said to Jesus: “We know
that thou art a teacher come from God
for no man can do the things that
thou doest except God be with him.”
There stood Peter and John, and be
side them the healed man, an eloquent
witness to the power of their Master,
whom they proclaimed. ■
“By their fruits shall ye know
them.” Practicing the profession is the
most convincing proof that we can
bring to bear upon this world for
Christ. The restored characters, the
cleansed heart, the renewed spirit, the
transformed life; these, the works of
the Spirit, are the indisputable evi
dences that we are to offer the world.
Like the Master we are to say to men:
“If you believe not wbat we say, yet
for- the work’s sake, believe!” Peter,
himself, stood there a monument to
the power of the Christ; Paul often
referred to the work of Christ in
his own heart and life, and contrasted
the early with later story of his life
as a witness to the transforming power
of the gospel he proclaimed to men.
A converted life is the proof we are
to offer men if we are to be true and
effective witnesses of Christ.
Irreproachable Witness.
After examining these men, with
keen desire to find some reason for
condemnation, the verdict of their ene
mies is: “we find nothing for which
we may punish them.” They took
knowledge, however, that “they had
been with Christ,” and let them go.
The Iivfes of these heroic witnesses of
Christ were blameless No flaw could
be found in their characters. Their
speech was true; their lives were up
right. The life, walk and conversa
tion is the best sermon that can be
preached and the best witness that can
be borne to the gospel’s saving power.
It is what we are and not so much
what we say that influences the world.
“What you are speaks so loud I cannot
hear what you say,” expresses the at
titude of .the world, and the weight it
gives to living and declaring a faith.
The vessels that bear the message
must be clean. The life must show
the fruit of faith. If we be not risen
with Christ into a newness of life
and character then is our preaching
and our professing vain. Let men take
knowledge of our "doings” that we
have been with Christ, then will our
“sayings” have the stamp of having
come from Christ. Such testimony
will be true and sure. It will bring
in the reign of the king and hasten
the coming of the kingdom wherein
dwelleth righteousness.

Tnllahoma, Tenn., Nov. 1909.
Dear Son—In your last you asked
when to transplant pecan trees.
I think November and December is
the best time, if not too dry. If dry,
water young trees freely when put out
Be sure and get good trees, of relia
ble budded or grafted stock, some of
the numerous, large paper shell va
rieties, the Stewart, Russell, May Rus
sell, Van Deeman and many others
are good. It is best to put out sev
eral kinds, as one may do better on
your stiff clay soils than, another;
while the native pecan trees grow as
far north as Missouri, Central Illi
nois and Indiana, I am not sure they
yet produce the improved kinds that
will thrive well in middle Tennessee.
Since writing above, I notice the Nut
Growers’ Association report fine pe
cans from Indiana, though the tree
peddlers assure us they will surely
do so. My first plantings do not bear
yet, though a few are growing finely.
It Is time and money wasted to
plant any but the best kinds and good
thrifty stock, too. Have holes dug
ready before unpacking trees, mean
time keep them in a cool, shady place
or cellar, or “heel” them in the shade.
Do not let them get dry. On clay or
sandy soils, dig holes two feet in di
ameter, three feet deep, or deeper, if
need be. On rich alluvial, moist bot
toms, a crowbar or post hole digger
will usually do as well, as pecan trees
have few, if any, side roots. If well
rooted, make holes large enough to
spread roots in natural shape. They
usually have a big bulbous tap root
nearly as long as the top, and three to

BUCHANAN
Peter and John were early compan
ions and friends. Their names are
linked and associated together as fish
ermen on the Sea of Galilee. They
are associated closely during the three
years of their following the Master,
and in many incidents are found in
mutual sympathy and united effort.
At the beginning of the work and in
the carrying out of the Master’s plans
and commands they are united and
continue together until the ball of duty
and the force of circumstances sepa
rate them and divide their field of
operations and service.
A short time after Pentecost they
are in Jerusalem together. It is the
hour of prayer, when the devout go
up into the temple to pray. They
join the worshiping multitude and. en
ter the gate called beautiful.
The lame beggar, laid there daily
to beg, asks of Peter and John alms.
Peter says, “Silver and gold have I
none, but such as I have give I unto
thee. In the name of Jesus Christ of
Nazareth, walk.” The miracle attracts
attention. A crowd gathers in Solo
mon’s porch and Peter preaches unto
them Jesus; proving from their scrip
tures, and declaring that He is the
Christ. The result is that vast num
bers are made to believe. His sermon
and his effect upon the people aroused
the scribes, pharisees and priests.
They imprison them for the night, and
the next day they bring them to trial.
They question them and take know
ledge that they have been with the
Christ, and warn them that they speak
no more in this name. But to this
verdict of the court Peter boldly re
plies, “We cannot but speak the
things we have seen and heard.”
From this incident we learn the in
tent and purpose for which the church
was instituted.
It is presumably true that these dis
ciples who had been so close to Christ
had learned and rightly understood
the mission for which they were sent.
The mission of the church in that
day is the mission of the church to
day. The work of a disciple of that
day is the work of a disciple today.
The leading mission and work of that
day was witnessing for Christ.
These disciples were not swerved
from their object and mission by the
cry and demands of their times or by
the claims of secondary objects.
Here was an object of charity ap
pealing to Peter, but safd 'he, “silver
and gold have I none.” Peter had a
larger and greater blessing to bestow
than earthly gifts and possessions.
They did works of charity, but their
main work was not social betterment.
This was only a department of their
greater work. They later ordained of
ficers, deacons, in their churches to
do this work, while they gave them
selves wholly to spiritual affairs.
Charity is right Social work for
the betterment of human conditions
is right, and the church that does not
recognize these obligations to the poor
and needy has forgotten the true test
of Christianity, "that the poor have
the gospel preached unto them.”
There is a false idea that charity is
religion. Religion is charity, but char
ity is not always religion. Indeed it
may exist apart from all religious pre
tentions and professions. If we make
religion simply the giving of gifts then
the rich can buy their way to heaven
while the poor must perish. Charity
is not confined to the ranks of the
disciples of Christ. Possibly the lar
gest giver of the world today is prac
tically an agnostic.
Peter and John and the early church
recognized that their mission was
more far-reaching than this, though
it included charity. They were wit
nesses for Christ, bearing their testi
mony to His deity, resurrection and
power to save.
This is the mission of the church,
the duty of every Christian. Christ
chose these men for this purpose and
while He was with them He taught
them that they should be witnesses
for Him. His great command was to
go and bear witness. Paul’s call was
to be a “chosen vessel to the Gentiles
and a witness to all people.”
We should never lose sight of this
great mission and work given us. The
calls to other things are loud and the
danger of neglect is great.
The kingdom is to grow this way.
The world is to be saved this way.
There are three essential qualities
of such witnesses as indicated in the
actions of Peter and John.
Irrepressible Witness.
“We cannot but speak.”
They are Irrepressible. No threat
or scorn could stop them. They were
consumed with zeal. They gave spon
taneous and full utterance to their
message.
Jesus said of the children; "If these
should hold their peace the very stones
would cry ouL”
Paul was an illustrious example of
an irrepressible witness. Men might
as well try to chain the ocean tides
as to stop the mouths of such witness
es as these.
Comparing the modern church with
the early church, what witness do we
give? Rich in martyr’s blood the past
bears eloquent testimony to the zeal
of men which could not quenched
four times as large as the tree above
ground.
If sandy or clay soil prevails, draw
rich earth to fill the holes around the
tree, but do not use fresh manure of
any kind next the tree. Half a bush
el of well rotted manure may be well
used about the tree after setting, or
any kind of green manure, if not put
next the tree. On rich, moist bottoms
no extra earth will be needed.
A cart or wagon may be used to
carry earth and trees from hole to
hole. Trim off smooth with a sharp
knife all ends of broken or mangled
roots and branches. If much top (usu
ally very little, if any), trim it out
closely. Set the treees in earth lower
than they were in nursery, leaving a
saucer-shaped surface around the tree
to hold water, still leaving top of soil
same as the tree grew in. Pack earth
firmly about tree roots, / filling the
earth around the tree with water, will
settle it more firmly than any other
way, with less work usually.
If set in orchard shape, plant them
35 to 50 feet apart each way; if a
single row, about 40 feet apart is a
good rule. The natural habitat of
pecans is near streams on low lands,
and they thrive best there, though
grown often on sandy or dry lands.
A large post, or 2x8 plank set in the
hole a few inches from the free on
the southwest side, extending six feet
above the ground, will shade the tree
boll first two or three seasons, and
prevent drying out in hot suns.
Do not fail, under any circum
stances, to mulch the trees heavily
in the spring. Put a foot of old straw,
com stalks or weeds, etc., over a
space at least four feet wide, or two or
three feet each way from the tree, in
all directions. I lost 9-10 of my first
settings ($1.50 trees, too) because my
men failed to follow instructions in,
this particular. You-need not lose one
if good stock. If a dry season, water
freely until well rooted. It pays.
Good trees cost, one year old, 50 to
75 cents; two years to three years
old, 75 cents to $1.50 each. I would
advise medium sized trees. Large ones
are hard to make live, and you have
to wait too long for small ones to bear.
There is a great cheat in trees, so
be careful whom you buy of. Trees
budded from peariny trees should bear
some in three to five years, and good
crops in seven to fifteen years. I
saw a seedling tree in Mississippi,
28 years old which bore $120.00- worth
of nuts, and the owner expected to
cut $100.00 worth of scions from it the
same season.
Still, not one seedling in a hundred
is worth a cent. This fall I saw the
same tree again. It was blown over
in the great gulf storm, but the owner
had dug out the loose earth washed
into the hole underneath it, cut off
nerly all the top, trimmed broken
roots and righted up the tree, stayed
it strongly, and it had started a luxu
rious top, bidding fair in a few years
to regain its former glory and use
fulness.
I notice many people in setting pe
can trees, often choose their finest
lands and leave the banks of streams.
Millions of acres now lying waste
along water courses, should be planted
in these fine, food-furnishing trees. If
the waters overflow the trees a few
days at a time, it will do no harm if
stoutly protected from driftwood, etc.,
by strong posts on the up-stream side
of tree. I would set them on south
and west sides of streams, shading
the stream instead of meadow or pas
ture about the tree.
Plant plenty of pecans, then care
for them. They will pay well and care
for you In your old age. If you are not
willing to set-and care for them thor
oughly and right, do not put money in
any kind of fruit or nut trees. It is
only wasted.
I think no tree is more profitable,
few as handsome, and none more hardy
than a paper shell pecan.
Paper covered books are often par
ticularly pernicious, but a good paper
shell pecan is a prize, and an orchard
of good ones bearing is a fortune.

and other sons of toil, I am,
