THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY. S. C,
Careful Management
, Needed to Meet Goals
I Increased efficiency can solve
yert wt the 1944 livestock and poultry
SretHac problem, according to War
TomI administration officials.
| Daring 1942-43, about 28 per ceht
more feed concentrates was em-
pjeyrd than during 1941-42, but out-
pat of livestock products increased
pT only 13 per cent.
; Officials point out that if the rate
■t feeding can be held midway be-
feveea the two-thirds of a ton of con-
jeentrates per livestock unit fed dur-
ing 1941-42 and the three-fourths of •
too fed during 1942-43, production
t of 1944 should be achieved with
1 ef only 140.7 million tons of feed
•Gocentrates. This would be about 7
million tons less than last year’s
feeding.
! Suggestions made by department
of agriculture officials with regard
to feeding efficiency include: Light
Pogs can be produced with less
feed per pound than heavy hogs;
more eggs can be produced with
fern feed by culling out more of the
ooo-layers and keeping a larger per-
•eatege of pullets; beef cattle should
Bo fed shorter and lighter; and
more dependence should be placed
•n roughage for cattle and sheep.
Experts urge elimination of
crowded farm conditions whereever
possible. With many farmers rais-
tog more corn and soybeans, for
example, less pasture is available
and resulting crowded conditions
atribute to disease and to death
among animals and poultry.
Farmers in feed surplus areas
Bare been urged to produce the
aeumodities they can produce best
and to adjust their livestock opera
tions to a level that will enable the
shipment of some surplus feed to
fee farmers in deficit-feed areas.

feis clover since the boss started
using phosphates and lime?”
Yearling Heifers Thrive
On Plenty of Roughage
> Heifers, like older cows, are capa
ble of utilizing large amounts of
soughage. Dr. George E. Taylor,
extension dairyman at Rutgers U.,
says that feeding heifers all the
moghage they will eat is a grain-
saving practice worth considering.
“■vvij-ling heifers can be success-
feHy raised on roughage alone from
one year of age to two months prior
to freshening,” Dr. Taylor reports.
"Daring summer, heifers must be
provided abundant pasture in order
to make good gains on pasture alone.
This can best be done by a system
of rotation grazing. A large group
wt Holstein and Guernsey heifers
at the New Jersey Dairy Research
ferm, Sussex county, averaged a
gain of one and a fifth pounds per
day on pasture alone. Holsteins
gained an average of one and a half
pounds and Guernseys one pound.
"In winter, the same group of
heifers on hay and silage alone
gained from a fifth of a pound to
one pound a day. During the entire
period, the heifers were normal and
carried plenty of flesh.”
t Heifers under one year of age
must be fed some grain to grow
■ormally. The required amount de
pends upon the quality of roughage
fed. However, baby calves can be
raised on a minimum amount of
milk and changed to dry feed at
fere to six weeks of age, resulting
in a saving of both milk and grain.
"Some dairymen may be tempted
to discontinue raising heifers in or
der to conserve grain,” Dr. Taylor
says, “but this would be a short-
mgkted program from the stand-
pood of the future dairy industry.
However, do not waste feed by rais-
feg poor heifers. Select only the
Best heifers for replacements.”
j Farm Notes
’ The best ,jvay of turning a cow
fey is to reduce the amount of feed
and, when necessary, limit the
aoiount of water and simply stop
milking.

Wedding Bells
Bring Out Brides,
Beauty and Gayety
Bride’s Shower Cake is a delicate
angel food frosted prettily with fresh
strawberry icing, garnished With
whole berries.
Here comes the bride! There’s
nothing so rare as a day in June,
nothing so glam
orous as a wed
ding. Even in
these days of fur-
lough brides,
quick - as - a - wink
weddings, every
thing is made as
nice as possible
for this is the
happiest day of her life.
Weddings should have beauty and
gayety, even when purses are slim,
for when the boys are doing their
jobs in the far comers of the earth
and the girls are left behind, they
should have the one thing that keeps
them going—a bundle of happy
memories tied with a white satin
bow.
So let the linens for the table be
white and fresh smelling, the silver
polished and gleaming. Take out
your best china, yes, the kind that
you use only for “best” because
that’s what a wedding is! Though
the food be simple as it must neces
sarily be in these days of rationing
and shortages, cook it well and serve
it handsomely.
Savt Used Fats!

PAUL PLEADS FOR A RUN
AWAY SLAVE
LESSON TEXT—PhUemon 4-J1.
GOLDEN TEXT—Be ye kind one to an-
rther, tenderhearted, forgiving each other,
rven as God also In Christ forgave you.—
Ephesians 4:32.
Brotherhood is one of those fine
qualities or impulses of the soul of
vhich men like to speak when all is
!air and prosperous, and promptly
’orget in times of distress and strug-
;le. That is just where Christiani-
y shows forth at its best, for it is
m the hour of need, sorrow, or afflic
tion that real Christian brotherhood
ihows its depth and durability.
Paul was in prison when he wrote
to Philemon. The one of whom he
vrote, Onesimus, was a slave who
lad deserted his master and proba
bly defrauded him (v.18). He had
seen converted, and now was being
sent back to his master. So we
'lave three Christian men dealing
with a very delicate matter, and pro
viding us a picture of brotherhood in
tetion. We learn that it is—
I. Courteous (w. 4-9).
After a fine spiritual salutation,
Paul enters upon an appeal to Phile
mon which is a model of tact and
sourtesy. One could wish that those
jvho think that being faithful to the
Lord and true to His Word means
being blunt and unkind, would learn
»f Paul.
First he lets Philemon know of
ills prayerful interest in him. Paul
bad been praying for him, that’s
ivhy he could say such a helpful
Krord. Praying for our fellow man
prepares us for genuine brotherly
love.
Then he recognizes Philemon a
goodness, and his effective testimo
ny for Christ. This is an excellent
approach to the making of a re
quest, but be sure that it was not
empty or hypocritical flattery. We
do well to recognize the fine quali
ties of our Chris ;'an brother, and
we could profitably speak of them
more than we do.
Then Paul was ready to make his
request. See how nicely he does it.
He skillfully reminds Philemon that
he might make some demands, and
especially in view of his age and
his imprisonment. But he will not
do so, rather he says, “I beseech
thee." There is fine Christian cour
tesy.
H. Considerate (w. 10-16).
Paul, the aged prisoner, had found
in his new convert, Onesimus, a real
helper. He would have liked to keep
him. In fact, says he to Philemon,
Onesimus could do for me the things
you would want to do if you were
here (v. 13).
Undoubtedly Paul could have been
sure of the willingness of Philemon.
He could have assumed that the re
quest would be granted. And in any
case, Philemon did not even know
where Onesimus was, so why not
keep him?
True Christian consideration re
spects the personal rights and the
property rights of another. We must
not assume, or demand, or put pres
sure on anyone (v. 14) to get what
they have or to draw out their serv
ice.
Another expression of considera
tion is found in verses 15 and 18.
Philemon had lost a heathen slave,
now he is receiving back a Chris
tian brother. No worker will give
less In service, and no master will
demand more, because the two are
both Christians. We need to recog
nize that fact, for all too often men
presume on their relationship ai
brethren. But the fact that they are
Christians should make a great dif
ference in their attitude toward one
another.
III. Cooperative (w. 17-21).
Partners share the benefits and
the burdens of their joint enterprise.
Partners in the gospel, like Paul
and Philemon, shared not only spir
itual blessings, but also the respon
sibilities. Paul was presenting suet
an item to Philemon in the return ol
Onesimus. Something had to hi
done about the debt of Onesimus
his failure as a servant. Paul says,
“Charge it to me, your partner.”
It has been pointed out that then
is here a blessed example of the im
portant doctrine of imputation, whict
is the “act of God whereby He a©
counts righteousness to the believei
in Christ,” because He “has born*
the believer’s sins in vindication o!
the law.” So we note that verses 11
and 18 perfectly illustrate imputa
lion.
Paul’s promise “I will repay if
(v. 19) was the legal phraseology o!
a promissory note in his day. It
was a bonafide partnership transac
tion, yet it was coupled with a re
minder of indebtedness. Everythin!
Philemon had and was he owed t<
Paul; but, says the latter, “I wil
not speak of that now.” Consider©
tion again, but opening the dooi
wide for Philemon’s cooperation.
No right thinking person Is contem
always to be on the receiving hand
The humblest recipient of favor oi
the smallest child who feels the lov«
of another wants to respond. Th(
considerate friend will, therefore
not always insist on giving, but wil
graciously (like Paul) open the waj
for cooperation, for partnership.
