Consequently, buyers are willing to pay more for clean eggs which means more prof it to the flockowner. The production of clean eggs and handling them to maintain quality is not difficult. Deep, dry litter, good ventilation and nests well lit tered with shaving, excelsior, straw, or other nesting material, will keep the birds from getting dirt and stains on the eggs from their feet. Always keep hens in the house on wet, muddy days. Immediately after gathering eggs should be stored in the cleanest, coolest and most moist place on the farm.

The low pressure cooker, develop ed since the end of the world war, permits more efficient canning of fruits, berries and tomatoes than was possible in the early 1940’s, be cause its ability to operate at a pressure of only three and three- quarter pounds assures thorough cooking without destruction of these delicate foods. Better Pigs m ■i*. S«fe- More than 3,000 Midwest farmers recently viewed pigs raised by Sam and Frank Honegger who have de veloped a system of vitamin feeding to produce bigger and better swine. The use of antibiotics and minute quantities of vitamin substances, in cluding vitamin B-12, in the daily rations has given growers a new outlook through a lower livestock mortality rate! The pig above fed by the new method gained nearly a pound a day faster than on previous diets at better than five cents less cost per pound of meat. Oriental Blight Strikes Italian Chestnut Trees What America has learned about combatting chestnut blight may turn out to be a blessing for Italy.

First of all, there’s a personal satisfaction in it to you and second to your family. ^Third, it’s nice to have a home- baked cake on hand, “just in case,” if there are afternoon callers, or if the folks in your house are just plain hungry for something sweet during a busy week-end. Good cakes are easy to turn out, even though you may be trying one for the first time, if you use standard measuring equipment, and follow instructions to the letter. If you want a cake success every time you bake, you’ll always follow measurements ac curately, because that leaves noth ing to guesswork. Measure ingredients and set them out before you start mixing. This assures you of not forgetting any thing. It also makes mixing the cake easier than starting to blend a few ingredients, then stopping to measure out the next one or two. Many of the cakes, we have now found, are easier to mix and give better results if ingredients are al lowed to stand at room tempera ture for two hours or so. This makes measuring them at one time a necessity. • • • A HOT MILK sponge cake is easy to mix and delicate to eat.

Act* S: Luka <M: _ * Using Your Bible Lesson for October 15, 1950 T HE BIBLE must be approached in three ways: with the head, with the heart and with the wilt With the head for understanding, the heart for appreciation and rever ence, and the will for obedience. That was the first question Philip asked the Ethio pian: Do you un derstand what you are reading? Not do you enjoy it. or do you believe It, but do you under stand it? If not, then the reader can neither fully believe nor rightly enjoy it. • < • Dr. Foreman niSiiEs The Wreck She—“Oh, goodl You’ve asked father.’’. He—“No, dear. I’ve just been in a motor smash.” Smart Pa Suitor—“Er—I—er—am seeking your daughter’s hand—er—have you any objection, sir?” Father—“None at all. Take the one that’s always in my pocket. 1 Single Mind 4 T have always maintained, 1 declared Charles, “that no two people on earth think alike.” “You’ll change your mind,” said his fiancee, “when you look ever our wedding presents.” encourage The King James Version T HE BEST, and simplest help in understanding the Bible is to read it in the language we speak. Now unfortunately it was not writ ten in that, tohgue. but in Hebrew and Greek. We have to read It in translations. There are scores of translations in English alone. The most widely sold of these is the one known by various names: the King James, or the Authorized, or the 1611, version. This was first published in 1611, being essentially a revision of the Bishop’s Biblq, a still earlier trans lation. The name “authorized” is misleading, however, for it never was authorized by church or state. It is a noble example of 17th cen tury English and has had a '-wide influence wherever, English-speak ing people have gone. The fact is, however, that people today do not speak 17th- century English any more, and very few of ns even read It. Consequently the Bible, in this King James version, has a quaint Shakespearian sound, and the difficulty of the lan guage is one of the main ‘rea sons why the average Ameri can today finds If hard to read. Furthermore, the King James is inaccurate in many places. At the time it' was published, the translators were working from Greek manuscripts which are now v known not to be either the earliest or the best available. For these reasons, fresh translations of the Bible were greatly needed. • • • 20th Century Translations T HESE modem-English transla tions of the Bible haven’t changed the Book; they are simply helping the reader to get back to the ideas of the original apostles and prophets; they are putting the Bible again into the language people ac tually speak. Some of the more important ver sions may be noted here. Practical ly all the churches of Protestant North America have been co-opera ting through the Internationa] Council of Religious Education, in producing what is dalled the “Re vised Standard Version” of which the New Testament Is already out, and very popular too. The whole Bible in this version is due to be off the press by September 1952. This is an excellent version for church or litnrgical use, as it keeps close to the King James rhythm wherever It can; for the King James version, what ever its faults, has a rhythm about parts of It (notably the Psalms) which has never been surpassed. Two other translations have been before the public, and have won many friends, for a score of years now: Moffat’s, and the American Translation by GoodSpeed, J.M.P. Smith and others. (This latter in cludes the Apocrypha, to which most Protestants are strangers). • • • At One Sitting r E average reader, used to tak ing his Bible in snippets of a verse or two, or a chapter at most, at one time, will find that he can sit down with one of these modern translations and just read on and on, fascinated by the book he has discovered^ for the first time. One of the “hardest” yet most important parts of the Bible, for instance, is the Epistles section of the New Testament. Every one of these epistles is a short letter, but how few pemons ever read one straight through! Let the read er who is puzzled by the Epistles get a copy of “Letters to Yonng Churches,” a translation by J. B. Phillips, and he will And that dark part of the New Testament simply opening up and shining. The work of translating will go on and on as long as language keeps changing; let us thank God for all those who In our time have been making the Word of God again an open book tor all men.
