FY REV. CHARLES E. 2)CNN
Joseph’s Kindness to His Kindred.
Lesson for June 20th.
Genesis 46:1-7.
Golden Text: Ephesians 4:32.
Joseph’s gracious treatment of his
brothers is a refreshing contrast
to their earlier shabby conduct at
Dothan. Inviting them and his
aged father Jacob, in the name of
Pharaoh, to settle in Egypt, he
promised them sufficient food for
the five years of famine which re
mained. The district of Goshen, a
pastoral, fertile area, was selected
as their new home. There they
flourished during the seventeen
years of Jacob’s sojourn in Egypt.
Here we have a very practical
application of the Golden Rule. Too
much of our religion, as Dr. Fos-
dick reminds us, is “emotional re
sponsiveness without practical is
sue.” We fail to understand that
the gospel is “action, not diction.”
From a type of faith mainly cere
monial in character it is good to
pass into the sort of discipline
Henry Ward Beecher had in mind
when he said, “Religion means
•work in a dirty world. You are not
called of God if you are ashamed
to scour and scrub.”
Joseph, despite his exalted rank,
and his consequent privilege to
move in exclusive circles with folk
cf great wealth and high social
position, never lost touch with the
common man and his needs. And
he at once acted to alleviate their
distress. With commendable gen
erosity he brought them to Egypt
and gave them a new start under
conditions making for comfort and
prosperity.
There is a real rebuke in Bliss
Carman’s song, “They’re praising
God on Sunday. They’ll be all right
on Monday. It’s just a little habit
they’ve acquired.” Too often re
ligion is an occasional experience
associated with a worship ritual.
We must learn to think of it, as
Dr. Fosdick insists, as really be
ginning on Monday morning and
lasting all the week. “God sent me
before you,” said Joseph to his
brothers, “to preserve yoii, and to
save your lives.” That is the au
thentic note of Christian helpful
ness.
Boll Weevil Alarming
Poisoning Now Urgent
Clemson, June 14.—The pressing
reed of early boll weevil control
is again emphasized by reports
from county farm agents for the
week ending June 12, says W. C.
Kettles, extension entomologist.
Counts in the Coastal section
show an average of 240 weevils per
acre. Square infestation count r
have been made in the Coastal sec
tion and are quite alarming. Count r
in the lower Piedmont section
fhow an average of 127 weevils
per acre. In the upper Piedmont
ruction weevil infestations are
scattered, but on some farms heavy
* infestations have been found.
County agents have been busy
c ring the week making counts to
J—-'ress on fanners the seriousness
cf the situation and demonstrating
the use of early poisoning ma-
triials. Farmers have been advised
to speed up this job, as much of
the cotton in the Coastal section
will so:n be too large for best re-
fiults with early poison. In the
Piedmont section the time is now
i:pe to strike, as much of the cot-
tin is just beginning to form
-iares.
Complete details of poisoning the
weevils with the 1-1-1 mixture
will be found in Extension Bulletin
SS, Important Field Crop Insects.
Copies of this bulletin may be had
free from the county farm agents
c* from the Publications Depart
ment at Clemson College.

Soil-Building Plan
To Suit Each Farm
Possible With AAA
R. D. Suber, county farm agent,
urges farmers to adopt, as a part
of their participation in the 1937
Agricultural Conservation Proeram,
soil-building practices that their
farms really need.
“The time for signing work
sheets is now past”, Mr. Suber
said, “and those farmers who are
definitely taking part in the pro
gram should select carefully those
soil-building practices that they
particularly need and make plans
to carry them out. The Agricultural;
Conservation Program offers par
ticipating farmers an opportunity
to meet some of the urgent con- !
servation needs of their own farms, j
“Farm needs vary widely. Some
farmers may need to establish or
improve permanent pastures.
Others may need additional acre
age in summer and winter legumes.
Some may need terracing. What
ever the need, if it is a soil-build
ing or soil-conserving practice
adapted to this section it is very
likely that it is on the list of prac
tices for which payments are being
made under the Agricultural Con
servation Program”, Mr. Suber
says.
“Farmers who have signed work
sheets should study their own farm
needs, and then study the approv
ed practices and select those to be
carried out on their farms in 1937.
By concentrating on the practices
most needed, farmers may utilize
fully the provisions of their farm
program and thereby accomplish
something of permanent value for
their farms.”

Mr. Nettles advises that if a
screw worm case appears in a
community the farmer should get
in touch with the county agent,
who has the necessary control in- 1
formation and will gladly give as- j
sistance.
! “Control and prevention of screw ;
worm is easily accomplished by
means of the prevention of wounds,
the proper care of animals at birth,
and the use of benzol and pine tar
oil”, Mr. Nettles declares. “The use i
of pine tar oil on fresh wounds is
considered a good practice even in
| the absence of screw worms, and
1 its continued use is advised as a
precautionary measure”, he states.
