County Agent Cain of Calhoun
says they have their largest soy
bean acreage this year, “and the
crop as a whole is very good,” he
says. That has grown into a major
money crop in Calhoun. Not only a
money crop, but a substantial soil
builder. Following grain, it is a

rode with McCord of Georgetown
to see his demonstration plant

hay and cattle were half knee
deep in it then. But that field
Bible Comment:
The Resurrection
Was the Beginning
Of Jesus' Mission
TF one thinks of the earthly life
of Jesus as lived in its Pales
tinian homeland, the Resurrec
tion was its triumphant climax.
It was not only the victory over
death, it was also the victory
over those who sought to destroy
Him.
But for the world at large, into
which Jesus had come, it was not
a climax, but a beginning.
It was now that He told His
disciples to go forth and preach
the gospel. In obedience to that
great commission, 20 centuries
have seen the growth of Chris
tianity.
But even greater than the out
ward power of churches and or
ganizations is the mystic fellow
ship of all believers, who have
taken to themselves the Christian
npme and who have sought to
live according to the teaching
and example of the Master.
' The evil that Jesus fought and
that crucified Him is still abroad
in the world, seeking to destroy
His teaching, setting up other
standards of selfishness, violence,
wordly power and caring nothing
for justice, mercy and right.
So great is this evil, so ap
parently overwhelming and suc
cessful, that it is easy to under
estimate the power of good, the
forces of righteousness and the
strength of Christian progress
toward what may still be a far-
off goal.
But the power and impulse of
Christianity are not in the past.
Jesus still lives and leads in
every devout soul whose daily
life, no matter how lowly or
great its place and environment,
is attuned to love.
He lives and leads in every
service for one’s fellowmen, in
the Schools and colleges and in
the missionaries.
We sing in our prayer, “Jesus
Still Leads On,” and that prayer
has its answer before it is spoken,
for the surest, truest, most hope-
. ful thing in all the world is that
Jesus is still leading on.

had been irrigated! With plenty
of fertility and adequate water,
that grass will do wonders. Certi
fied seed patches were started in
every county last spring. This
fall and winter we will have a
goodly supply of pure stolons
(runners) for local use.
About two months ago a group
of county and home agents around
Charleston started the first farm
television show in the state.
County Agent Alford of Colleton
reports enthusiastically about this
new medium for reaching folks
with things of interest to the home
and farm. Other television pro
grams along this line are now in
the making for other parts of the
state as fast as the stations are
ready.
McCarley of Kershew says they
had practically no pastures this
summer except Bermuda grass.
That old hated grass, hated in the
cultivated field, is now just about
tops for pasturage. And his Coast
al Bermuda plantings were just
fine, he says. They even out good
hay there, while nothing resembl
ing hay materialized from other
things.
Last year Oconee apple growers
got together and put out a high
quality pack of apples through a
central packing shed. This year
they are adding a cider mill, ac
cording to County Agent Morgan.
Snap beans is another crop this
group is planning on for the com
ing year. Those little mountain
coves are a natural fojr such sum
mer truck. Now, with a market
ing facility there to handle them,
they are launching new crops suit
ed to the area.
I DREAM A BIT
I like t<2 go to airports, see the
great birds of the sky come in,
taxi to a stop, disgorge their hu
man cargo, take on more, and then
roar away into the outer spaces
again.
Yes, to me, that’s always thrill
ing. But best yet is to be on that
great bird. Riding the winds and
the clouds! Rubbing out distances!

Courage for Christian Living.
Lesson for September 13: II Tim
othy 1: 3-14.
Golden Tesct: 11 Timothy l: 7.
Marcus Aurelius, In his medi
tations, acknowledged his debt to
his forbears, beginning with his
grandfather. Paul, in writing to
Timothy, reminded the young man
of his debt to those who in a
blessed succession of faith had led
him to become a Christian and
one fully prepared for high living
and fine service.
And Timothy was urged- to stir
up the gift of God and to be busy
in the work of the gospel, ready,
if need be, to suffer hardship
as a good soldier of Christ, as above
all things remembering the Lord
and all the Lord had done for him
and for all who might believe
on Him.
Courage should come to Timothy
In the assurance that Christ had
abolished death and “brought life
and immortality to light through
the gospeL” Men are encouraged
to go on with some great under
taking when they are assured that
there will be time to complete it.
So may we be encouraged in the
work of the gospel as knowing that
the limitations of earth and death
Itself will not deter them from win
ning the crown of righteousness,
which the great Judge will give
them in the eternal day.
BOYS ARE
THAT WAY
By J. M. ELEAZER
As a kid I hated to hear the last
cicada cease his buzzing song in
the woodland. For it meant many
things to a country boy.
Cotton was whitening in the
field. The rows were long. And,
my, how- I hated to pick that
stuff. There was only one reward
ing feature of that task for me.
And that was the occasional
watermelon we could find hidden
there in the grass at times. We
usually replanted the skips in the
cotton to watermelons. And the
puny vines that resulted would
put on some little knots about
the size of your head. On a cool
fall morning it was a rare thrill
to find one of those there in the
yellowing grass and weeds of the
cotton middle. We would break
them on a rock and the tender
sweet meat would hull out in
clean chunks. And we would eat
It down to the whlfe.
Then, worst of all, the going of
the cicada meant the coming of
school before long. And how we
hated that! Not so much that we
hated school. But look what it
beat us out of! The wild harvest
In the woods was ripening then.
And we strove to let -none of that
waste.
Then too, the foreboding of
chilly days would soon cause our
old creek to lose its lure. And that
was tragic for sure. Happy sum
mer days by the score were spent
in its rocky channel building
dams, getting mussels, grabbling
for fish (and we really caught ’em
that way, in our hands), and just
playin’ around. And, perhaps
early supper in Spokane, Wash
ington. I ate dinner in Atlanta,
fooled around there until 3 p.m.
and then ate a late supper in ios
Angeles.
All of this is simply incredible
to me, a simple backwoodsman
from the Stone Hills of the Dutch
Fork. Often as a kid I dreamed
of such things. But they were in
the world of fancy, that beautiful
world of make-believe.- And there
I was doing it. Yes, in the course
of a very few hours from the
burning flat lands of the Midwest
to the snow-capped peaks of the
northern Rockies! Yes, that was
old country pie on a hot summer
day. And we encountered a
thunderstorm, ahead, right over
those mountains. Did we try to
go around it? No. We just went
up to about the 4-mile elevation
and went over it, as dark turmoil
and jagged lightning boiled to
gether in the seething caldron
below. Very soon we had left it far
behind and all was clear ahead,
as we headed into, the low de
scending sun. At the appointed
time, right on the minute, our
wheels touched the runway at
Spokane, Washington, a whole
continent away from where we
had started after breakfast that
morning!
Now I’d like to shoot across the
j continent on one of those jets.
They go twice as fast as we did.
Then I could eat breakfast in
Greenville and the noon meal out
there. Yes, and perchance, come
right back and have supper here
at home.
Wonder of wonders, we are liv
ing with! Look at me. I dreamed
of flying as a kid, merely dream
ing. Now I do it. I wonder what
kids can dream about now. Maybe
flying to the moon. That seems
no farther off than my present
flying did to me as a kid.
And farming too now goes about
as fast. I plowed a mule on rough
land where the rocks and roots
bruised my shins. Now I see 4-H
row outfits doing the work of 25
boys and mules. And doing it bet
ter!
My, it’s good to be living now!
