Read Psalm 119:^3-40
Teach me, O Lord, the way of Thy statutes; and I
shall keep it unto the end. (Psalm 119:33)
The psalmist impresses use here in that the presence of God was
real to him. He believed that the eternal God would accompany
him through all the paths of life. This certainly was so redl to him
that he wanted to proclaim it from the bottom of his soul. However,
he wanted his faith to find backing in the Word of God.
The Psalms marvelously anticipated the spirit of Christianity.
Today we have a greater and better testimony of the presence of
God. It came to us in the. person of God made flesh, Jesus Christ.
Through his personal presence He revealed the Father and declared
all things to us.
Today, as yesterday, the man of Christ should be completely
consecrated to Him, always studying His word and being fortified
by His presence. Thus the Christian receives power to announce
Christ by his testimony—Emmanuel, God with us.
PRAYER
We praise Thee, O heavenly Father, for the great tes
timony of ancient men of faith who were consecrated to
Thee. We also praise and glorify Thee for the ineffable
gift of Thy beloved Son, Jesus Christ. In His name we
pray. Amea.
A THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
In the word of God, which is eternal wisdom, we find inspiration
for our lives.

A. T. Stewart and J. B. De-
Shields of Lanford Station, have
done an excellent Job of control
ling the weevils. I was in their
fields the past week and had to
look hard to even find a punc
tured square. Generally speaking,
the infestation in the county is
running from as low as 2% to a
high of 00%. Stewart’s and De-
Shields’ are the only two fields
that I’ve found with a very low
count. In almost all cases it has
been much higher. It is obvious
that sprays are doing a better
job.

This has been an ideal year for
the dairy farmer from a forage
production standpoint. There
probably will be more silage stor
ed this year than any previous
year. Even corn, which is not
too dependable due to droughts,
is very good. Sorghum and soy
beans look very good and we can
look forward to a big harvest.
Dairymen in our area are going
to have to do a better job of feed
ing. Production depends a great
deal on quality feed, all they will
eat and good management.

The only requirement for
farmer to become a district co-
operator is to agree to use his
land within its capability and to
treat it according to its needs
for sustained production.
The Soil Conservation Service
in cooperation with the Laurens
Soil Conservation District assists
each fanner in planning his farm
in order to use his land within its
capabUity. In order to make and
develop the plan the SCS prepares
a land capabUity map to deter
mine the different classes of land
found on a given farm. From this
information the various fields,
including woodland and pasture
are planned for uses within their
capabilities.
