Use them properly all summer and then the fescue, la- dino clover, etc., can build up the vigor with which to serve us best the rest of the year, along with grain mixtures.

In fact, their proper use usually amounts to extermina tion. Our extension entomologist’s office has organized a roach kill ing campaign in all counties of the state through the county and home agents. The State Agricul tural Commitee and State Coun cil of Farm Women have put the weight of their organizations be hind it, and the cooperation of all agencies and groups is sought in making it effective.

Out of the many farmers in it, only a few irrigated. Yet 15 of these were among the 34 who made the coveted 100 bushel club. I don’ at present know of one who irrigated who didn’t make it, but there might be one He points out, if this keeps up, a lot of folks who have to eat rather low on the hog and cow will soon be eating high on the chicken. • * • Bovs Are That Way Boys of today don’t have to go through that ordeal of changing from short pants to long ones out there at the gawky age about the time the fuzz of whiskers comes on the face.

They had taken the old school desk out in the grove to sit on during the speaking. I sat on the back of one, as a large man sat on the seat and held it down.

We will use others too, but they, along with the old common Bermuda we already have, will be the main twisted around there.

He has ever sought a stairway to God. • For nearly two thousand years the Christian religion has pointed man to such a stairway. And through the centuries millions have climbed it. • But mil lions have not! And the reason they have not is the most serious problem that faces the Church and the world today: • You see, the only stairway to God is FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST, HIS SON. And Faith is not something which men can possess collectively, as all Americans possess freedom. Faith is something we can only possess individually like life itself. The man who lacks it is dead, even though millions around him possess it. ♦ The faith of your wife, or your father, or your son, or your nation is not—for you—a stairway to God. Christ has given you the Church to plant and culti vate faith in your heart. But the Church must have your heart — in person! mm THE CHUBCH FOR All, r . chuhct -h. building can tunriv* Th«r* i ^ ”° r cmlixaUon feSL Mo«d«jr..... tTST* ft I.J L-? 4 **. ...,uK • *»-J7 W.dn..dijr iTf.— >• l-lt This Series Of Messages Is Being Published Each Week By the Following Clinton Firms In the Interest Of Increasing Church Attendance McGEE’S DRUG STORE Phone No. 1 Bank Of Clinton Phone 121 Howard’s Pharmacy Phone 101 Giles Chevrolet Co.
