THE WORLDS MOST WIDELY USED DEVOTIONAL GUIDE
« Brethren, let every men, wherein he is celled, therein
sbide with God. (I Corinthians 7:24.)
e story is told by L. P. Jacks of two unbelievers, one of them
dying add the other sitting by to be of whatever encouragement he
could. : ' ,
“Stick to it, Tom, stick to it,’’ urged the conipanion.
“There is nothing to stick to,’’ ebbed the response from the dying
one.
Can anything in life be more tragic than that, to come to the end
with nothing to tie to, possessing nothing of eternal value?
One does not have to be a theologian to have God as his hope and
surety. Paul, writing to the Corinthian church, emphasized that sta
tion in life and performance of religious rites ere not in themselves
stepping stones into the kingdom.
Salvation, he affirms, is turning to God through faith in His Son
—turning where one is, in whatsoever state, and then making sure
to abide with God.
As we move about our tasks today, there need be no barriers be
tween us and God.
PRAYER
Gracious God. our Father, we rejoice that Thou art
above us and within us. All our hope is in Thee, in the
redeeming love of Thy Son, our Lord. O sanctify us
wholly. Teach us Thy will and nerve ue as we en
deavor to fulfill it, through Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
God can transform us into vessels meet for the Master’s use.

WHEN YOU GO
To get ready for a better year
in farming, County Agent C. B.
Cannon makes these better farm
ing suggestions for March:
Agronomy
1. Plant Starr or pearl millet for
grazing just as soon as it is prac
tical to do so. 2. Expand the acre
age of Coatstal Bermuda this
spring. Be sure to use certified,
registered, or foundation sprigs.
3. Follow the 5-point com pro
gram for higher yields. 4. Turn un
der cover crops early. 5. Plant
enough registered or certified seed
to produce next year’s planting
seed for the entire farm. 6. Make
last topdressing on small grains.
7. If not already sown, sow an
nual lespedeza early in March. 8.
Plan to fertilie crops and pastures
liberality this year. Commercial
fertilizer is your best bargain. 9.
Follow recommended practices for
more cotton per acre.
Horticulture
1. Set out fruit trees for home
orchards if not already set: 2. Plant
raspberries, blackberries, and
strawberries early this month. 3.
Plant hardy vegetables—cabbage,
turnips, mustard, spinach, kale,
lettuce. 4. Make plans for vege
tables for home use throughout
the year. The vegetable garden was
never more important than now
for health and economy.
luseeto And Diseases
1. Tobacco growers, .vegetable
growers, and gardeners: Ask coun
ty agents for Extension Circular
382, Control of Root Knot and O^i-
er Nematodes. 2. For rat control,
keep warfarin bait available at all
times. 3. Become weed-control
conscious. 4. Make use of wilt—
and other disease-resistant varie
ties. 5. Don't forget value of rota
tion and field management to con
trol com bilibugs. 6. Check bee
colonies for food, and feed if
necessary. 7, Plaice orders for
queens / tor requeening. 8. Clean
and repair equipment.
, Agricultural Engineering

ery for needed repairs, and pur
chase or order parts now. 2. Put
