Field Notes

BROTHER and Sister Milo D. Warfle report four baptized at Trinidad, Colo., November 3.
BROTHER GEO. FOWLER reports that eight new members have been added to the church at Stanley, N. D.
BRETHREN A. L. MILLER and R. W. Leach, writing from Seymour, Ind., report eleven new Sabbath-keepers, with others deeply interested.
THE work in Greater New York is making substantial gains. In addition to the work among the Italians, reported in another column, twelve members have recently been added to the Swedish church in Brooklyn, with a good interest still in South Brooklyn.
SIX have accepted the truth at Fargo, Okla., where Brethren Hayhurst and Braley are laboring.
As the result of meetings held at Mount Bullion, Cal., fourteen have taken their stand for the truth.
BROTHER GEO. W. SPIES reports that on Sabbath, November 10, two were baptized and three united with the church at Northumberland, Pa.
At the close of a seven weeks' tent-meeting in Niles, Mich., by Brethren H. C. Pitton and E. F. Collier, seven are rejoicing in the truth.
AT Cleveland, Okla., six have begun to keep all the commandments as the result of meetings held by Brethren A. E. Field and J. B. Hampton.
BROTHER JOHN F. ANDERSON, holding meetings in Thief River Falls, Minn., reports that ten have recently accepted the truth there, and others are interested, some of whom are keeping the Sabbath.
BROTHER P. G. STANLEY reports the baptism of seven persons recently in Urbana, Ill. The church there now numbers forty-four. These have been brought out through Brother Stanley's labors in Urbana during the last year and a half.
SINCE the camp-meeting at Versailles, Mo., Brother E. A. Merrill has baptized six persons. These and three others who had been immersed in other churches are all firm in the truth. A Sabbath-school of twenty-four members has been organized there, and Sister Warnock is holding Bible readings with others who are interested.
AFTER the local camp-meeting at Holton, Kan., Brethren A. R. Ogden and L. F. Trubey continued the work, and were still conducting meetings in the tent on November 11, with growing interest and attendance. Some results already appear, as the attendance at Sabbath-school increased from fifteen to fifty, and about twenty-five have decided for the truth.
OUR sanitarium work in Japan is a living testimony of what may be accomplished by beginning in a small way, letting the work enlarge as the needs demand. In 1903 our first organized work was begun, with a capital of four hundred dollars. It has increased during the three years until the present worth of our medical facilities is about four thousand dollars, with no debts.
ON Sabbath, October 27, a new Swedish church of about twenty-five members was organized in New York City, with Brother G. E. Nord as elder; and on the same day Brother C. H. Edwards baptized eight, most of whom came into the truth through Bible readings held by Sister M. A. Scribner. Within a week Brother M. L. Andreasen baptized eight, and Brother J. K. Humphrey nine believers in the third angel's message. The most of these were the first-fruits of the tent-meetings held the past summer. On Sabbath, November 17, Elder O. E. Reinke baptized ten believers among the Germans.
