From the Field.

Bro. J. D. PEGG writes from Keota, Iowa, December 7, as follows:—
“Since my last report, our little company of Sabbath-keepers here have by a commendable effort, built a comfortable house of worship 20x32 feet, capable of seating 132 people, which was dedicated Sunday, Dec. 4. There will be a debt of something over $100, which will be met without trouble, if they are prospered.
When we pitched the tent here June 23, one lady was keeping the Sabbath. Now sixteen are walking in all the commandments of God, and the greater number give evidence of a growth in grace. The Sabbath-school is increasing in interest, and nearly forty are in attendance as regular scholars. Fifteen copies of the Instructor are taken, and we think more will be needed soon. They hold two prayer-meetings each week. The attendance is full, and the Lord blesses at every meeting.
M. M. Olsen reports a good interest among the Scandinavians in Dakota. At Turkey Creek six more have commenced to keep the Sabbath.
