SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year $1.00 Six Months 1 .75 Three Months.50 Poultry Outlook Offers Promise ply of feed for all livestock. The reduced number of other classes of livestock will make more feed available for poultry, and this should result in a ratio between prices of feed and prices of poul try products much more favorable for the poultryman than during the past season.” Pointing out that South Caro lina is a deficit poultry state, Prof. Morgan declares that there is op- 1 - portunity for increasing poultry production in this state under normal conditions, and that with .he situation as it exists at * the «• present an increase in the number ' of birds kept by pouitrymen during the coming year should result in considerable profit to those engaj- ig in the business. He advises .hat any increase in numbers of birds kept on farms should be planned at this time since chicks for fall egg production should be started during the next few weeks. r xt Getting Loans OVER 39,000 PORROW TOTAL OF $9,003,853 THROUGH PRODUC TION CREDIT ASSOCIATIONS CLEMSON, March 25.—With the rapidly rising prices of beef and •pork products together with the shortage in numbers of these ani mals and the reduction in numbers of chickens throughout the coun- Man y r amierS try, poultry and poultry products should rise in price, particularly during the coming summer and fall months, thinks Prof. C. L. Morgan, head of the Poultry De partment at Clemson. “On account of the present short age in nurpbers of beef cattle and hogs it will be several years before the stock of these animals can be restored to normal”, explains. “In the meantime the trade will turn to poultry and oth er meat sources. This should re sult in a marked improvement in price? of poultry products. “The prospects for grain produc tion for the coming year appear much better than during the past year.

Taking the lead in the apostolic band from the first, he maintained it to the end. Of course his fame is overshadowed by the brilliant genius and wider influence of Paul, that towering giant. But Peter, though eclipsed by Paul, ranks very high as a herald of the gospel. Cross, to deny Him like a coward. Moreover he was fickle. In the bit ter controversy over the admission of Gentiles into the fellowship of the church he at first acted with commendable wisdom and gener osity of spirit, championing Chris tian liberty. But later he allowed himself to be intimidated by those who Insisted on conformity to Mo saic regulations, and so incurred the censure of Paul. (Gal. 2:11-14). But what great qualities he had! First of all, he was a born leader with a natural gift for gathering his fellows about him, and inspiring them to action under his guidance. Now a leader needs two significant traits, courage and initiative. Peter had both of these. Think of *his courage! It was moral courage that led him to make the great surren der, and give his life to Jesus. Later To be sure, we fully recognize his faults.
