BY REY. ROBERT II. HARPER
Lesson for July 18: Exodus 3:-
13-16; 4:10-17.
Golden Text: Exodus 3:12.
Moses greatly needed encourage
ment. Anxious as to how his peo
ple would receive him, he asked
the Lord what he should say when
he was asked the name of the God
who had sent him. And he was
told to say I AM had sent him.
This name is very significant of
God. The personal pronoun I
shows that God is a person — the
Supreme Person — and Am indi
cates his eternity. So the Eternal
God was back of Moses, and this
should have encouraged him.
But still he hesitated—pleading
that he was not an orator but
“slow of speech.” Then Godprom-
ised to direct his speech but Moses
persisted in his effort to shift the
responsibility. His excuses and his
manner displeased the Lord. He
told Moses his brother, Aaron, a
Levite, was coming to meet him
and would welcome him and that,
together, instructed of God, they
could do the work appointed them.
Thus encouraged, with assur
ance of God’s presence and power,
Moses set out on his mission
which, from a human viewpoint,
was impossible, with only a frail
rod to lift against the might of an
ancient kingdom.
In the midst of our own difficul
ties in doing the Lord’s work, let
us hear his voice saying unto us,
even as Moses heard it of his rod,
“What is that in thine hand?”
What is it, reader, at your com
mand, that you can use if it be
consecrated unto God?
use and the amount to can is
as follows:
Vegetables, 4 times a week, 120
qts. to last 6 mos..
Tomatoes, 3 to 4 times a week,
100 qts. to last 8 mos.,
Fruit, 4 times a week, 120 qts.
to last 6 mos.,
Kraut, 1 time a week, 20 qts.
to last 5 mos.,
Meat, 2 times a week, 50 qts. to
last 6 mos.,
Individual requirements for a-
dults and children over six for
one year:
20 quarts of tomatoes,
24 quarts of vegetables,
24 quarts of fruit,
4 quarts of kraut.
When you prepare your fall
garden, apply a liberal amount of
well decomposed manure. Be
sure it is well decayed or it will
burn the plants. The advantage
of manure in preventing drying
of soil can be better appreciated
when we know that 100 pounds of
sand will hold 25 pounds of
water; clay 50 pounds of water;
and organic matter (manure) 190
pounds of water.
Do not overlook the importance
of fertilizer for the fall and win
ter garden. Make a top dressing
of nitrate of soda for growing
crops and work it well into the
soil.
Make plantings of the follow
ing:
Turnips — Shogoin, Seven Top
(for greens)—Purple Top, White
Egg (for turnips),
Beans — Tendergreen and
Stringless Greenpod,
Turnips — (Rutabaga) — Im
proved Purple Top, up to August
1,
Beets—-Zarly Wonder and De
troit Dark Red,
Carrots—Imperator and Chan-
tenay,
Corn — Stowell’s Evergreen,
Celery—Golden Self Blanching,
Giant Pascal,
Cabbage — Succession and Late
Flat Dutch,
Tomatoes—Marglobe, Pritchard,
ard Rutgers, (all wilt-resistant).
Plants of the above named
vegetables are always short for
fall plantings. Therefore, do ev
erything possible to save the
plants and cause them to grow
off rapidly after transplanting.
Puddling the roots, which is
nothing more than plunging the
i roots into a mixture of soil and
j water, before transplanting, is
very helpful. Shade the plants
I with old berry boxes, newspapers
pine tops, or old shingles unti
the growth begins.
Watch for Insects: Stop the in
sect when it first begins to work
It is easier to handle before it
has a larger family and many
friends. See Extension Bulletin
102 for control measures for such
insects as bean beetle, tomato
fruit worm, cabbage worm, cu
cumber beetle, squash bug, red
spider, and others.
Mole Crickets: These insects
tunnel just under the surface of
the soil cutting off plant roots.
Control with poisoned bait, scat
tered broadcast over infested area
late in afternoon. This is com
posed of the following: cottonseed
meal, 5 pounds; rice flour, 5
pounds; calcium arsenate, one-
half pound; and one cup of mo
lasses to 7 cups of water.
Harlequin Bug and Squash Bug:
Handpick and destroy by drop
ping in cup of kerosene. A py-
rethrum dust (pyrocide) has been
used successfully by some gar
deners. Hot (140-180 degrees F)
soapy (1 lb. to 5 gals.) water ap
plied with sprinkling pot late in
afternoon has proven effective in
Louisiana. Destroy all old bean
