HOLDS BIBLE TO BE "SECTARIAN BOOK" California Court Makes Drastic Decision Regarding Bible In Schools. f(Capital News Service.) Washington, Nov. 13.?The King James version of the Bible "is the accepted Protestant version" and therefore sectarian, the supreme court of California has decided in an opinion just made public reversing a judgment of a supreme court in Kings county, which permitted the Selma Vnion high school district to purchase two coDies of the Bible for the school library. / The court held the acquisition of the Bible by the school would be in direct violation of the school law. At the same time this decision was rendered, a prominent womans's club in the nation's capital formed a "nonsectarian" class for the stud\* of the book held "sectarian" in California. A majority of the educators of the capital city, whether or not they believe in* the use of the Bible as a r foundation for public school study, are united in believing that the King James Bible is as non-sectarian as a book can be, since it is the foundation of the teachings of every Christian religion, with one notable exception, and its Old Testament is jusea in many Jewish synagous. Many educators believe that the Sunday school and the home are the places for Bible study, and that religious instruction does not belong in f ? public school, but hold that the premises on which California is keeping the Bible from the public school library is a mistaken one. o Have You Planted Green Feed for Your Chickens? Green feeds are a very necessary part of the hen's ration and should be supplied to her when confined in small yards and during the winter after the frost has killed the vegetation. Free range or large yards kept in grass, alfalfa or clover will furnish ideal green feed. Where smaller yards are used, they should be divided, if possible, into two parts and used alternately, planting the vacant yard several times with a quickgrowing green crop, such as rape, oats, wheat, rye or barley. In this way, green feed is supplied, and it helps to keep the ground clean and sweet. Other green feeds that can be fed, especially in winter, are sprouted oats, alfalfa meal, chopped alfalfa, clover hay, cabbage, and mangel beets. Cabbages can be fed by suspending them by means of a cord hung up in the poultry house and the birds receive some exercise while eating. The beets are uusally split and stuck on a nail on the side wall of the poultry house. When oats .are used for sprouting, they should be of a good grade. Soak them over night in warm water and spread out 1-2 to 1 inch thick on trays having perforated bottoms. Water the oats thoroughly each day and turn the trays around, so as to bring each side near the light, in order to encourage an even growth. Keep the trays in a temperately heated place, and stir the oats each day until the sprouts begin to form. Sprouted oats are fed when the sprouts are from 2 to 4 inches high. The sod is removed, broken into chunks, and fed in troughs or on clean litter. From I to 2 square inches for each hen should be fed at noon. Why green and succulent feeds are necessary ? 1. Fowls need succulence to keep them in condition and to keep the digestive tract in working order. 2. It acts as a tonic and stimulates the appetite. 3. It furnishes a large amount of . water and thus adds bulk to the ra tion. 4. It is undoubtedly one of the factors causing increased egg production. 5. It improves the fertility and hatching quality of the egg, and the vital itv of ^he chick. 0 One 01 Man's Real Friends. They have been, printing tributes to the horse and to the dog and to other animals as "man's friend." There now comes the champion of H| the cow. We find the apostrophe to wJP the quadruped in the publication gotr ten out by the Missouri State Board w of Agriculture. Little do we realize the debt we owe the cow. During the dark ages of savagery and barbarism we find her early ancestors natives of the wild forests of the old world. As the bright rays of civilization penetrated the darkness of that early period, and many called upon the cow, she came forth from her seclusion to share in the efforts that gave ' us a greater nation and more enlightened people! For 20,000 years she has shown her allegiance to man, sharing alike in his prosperity and adversity, responding nobly to all that was done for her, until through her development she became an idol of the people of her native country. When Columbus made his second voyage to America, the cow came with him, and from that time to the pres- 1 ent day she has been a most potent factor in making this, our own country, the greatest nation, with the highest type of womanhood history has ever known! Her sons helped till the soil of our ancestors and slowly moved the products of the farm to market. They went with man to the dense foiests o; the new world, helped clear them for homes and made cultivation possible for the coming generation,-and when the tide of emigration turned Westward they hauled the belongings of i the pioneer acroos the sun-scorched nvdp thp threat mountain ranges to new homes beyond. Truly, the cow is man's greatest benefactor. Hail, wind, drouths and floods may come, destroy our crops and banish our hopes, but from what is left the cow manufacturers into i the most nourishing and life-sustain- i ing foods, and is she not foster moster 1 and life itself to countless thousands < of little children all over this world . of ours? We love her for her docility, her beauty, and, should misfor- < tune overtake us as we become bow- < ed down with the weight"* of years, 1 wre know that in the cow we have a i friend that was never known to falter, i She pays the debt. She saves the i home. God bless the cow?little do we realize the debt we owe her. 1 o < Destroy Cotton Stalks Right Away. J .' Q. Why? < A. To perish the weevils to dfeath * before frost. * Q. How? A. Cut them with ^hopper and J completely root up. Q. How does destroying stalks 1 now effect weevil? " 1 A. He can only feed and breed in the fresh squares and tender shots. ^ If you destroy your stalks he will ^ have no place to lay an egg, and will die or go elsewhere. ( Q. Why should my neighbor de- J stroy his stalks? 1 A. Because the weevil will leave 1 your fields vhen you cut, and go to ' your neighbor's, only to get you again before summer is over. Q. Have you any figures to prove 1 the effect of destroying stalks? ( A. Louisana experiments, over a * long -period, have shown as follows: Per cent, of Stalks weevils appearing destroyed. next spring. On October 15 or before 3 per cent OofnKai- IK /* 97 IK m>r cent i WWW* AV ?v ???? ? ? ???? W r?- J November 1 to 25 22 per cent t November 30 to Dec. *7__28 per cent i After December 15 43 per cent i Q. Have you any evidence like that in South Carolina ? t A. Yes. We notice two things j very striking. The conties last year i that made poor crops and destroyer stalks early, have beat neighbor- i ing counties making cotton this year. ( Also, we have seen many cases of t fields where stalks were destroyed ^ last fall and compared to others where i stalks were left, have made two and three times as much cotton. Two i fields, for example, in Colleton, as t follows: 1. Nine acres?stalks destroyed 1 last fall, six bales this year. j 2. Ten acres?stalks destroyed i this spring, three bales this year. s The ten-acre field had always produced better crops heretofore. Botn \ fields were treated exactly alike, i worked by the same man on same i farm. c The Pee Dee Experiment Station's c results this year show as follows: < On 8-acre field, no cotton last f year, therefore no stalk. Percentage c of infection July 23 was 6 per cent.; j yield of cotton, 1,280 pounds per acre. Another field, just across ditch, had i stalks turned under during December. < Percentage of infection May 15 was i /?onf trials nf 4 UV pvi VVUVl J J 1V1U V* vv?vv??j vv* I pounds per acre, with dust. Last, but not least, try to get some < cover crop on the tract just as soon 1 as you cut the stalks. It helps the 1 land and hurts the weevil. The wee- i vil cannot live over winter surround- < ed by a green growing crop. He must > be in dry litter. Clean up your ditches and hedges t and all surplus trash around the prem- i ises. ? s We do not recommend mowing down the stalks and hauling to the barn j yard. We think you will have a mass ] of weevils emerging from your barn < yard next spring. Then, too, you 1 have a double cost of hauling both ways and it is worth just as much turned under in the field. i We venture to say that had Wil- 1 liamsburg iounty cut down all her cot- t ton stalks last October, we would have | made twice the cotton we have made 1 this year. Do we want to double our chances, g for next year's Now, andd^^^H|Bnart your chopper ' Rub-My-Tism, an antiseptic. Send us your order for Job Print ing. We only do the best work.

Among the numerous '"Doubting rhomases" who form a part of the xipulation, there are some, here and here, who think that the number of lutomobile drivers killed or injured it railroad crossings is exaggerated. To ail such we make the sugges;ion that they might keep a record .'or a month or so and see what* figires will show. Of course, outside of some big disisters, the accounts of crossing accidents are not published far from he place where they happen so you vould miss a majority of the cases til over the country. Through the newspapers that you ead you will get a lot of informaion, quite enough to start a record. There are clipping bureaus in the arge cities that could furnish you t good many of such items. Seeing s believing, so make a record and itudy it. Statistics show that 3,000 automo>iles were struck at grade crossings n this country last year. In these aosv 9 nnn men wnmen and ILUUCUIO V*?l Ujvvv .. w.? ihildren were killed and over 3,000 sthers were injured. In dozens of instances whole families, numbering Tom four to six were wiped out as :ompletely as though a cyclone had struck them. A cyclone comes without warning, torn an unexpected quarter. Train >f cars always comes along a permalent track, so you know where to ind it - ? ? il And yet, this very a ay, more man >ne driver, somewhere, will heedlessy drive onto the tracks, without ooking or listening and then a rushng train will demolish his car. In :ompany with wife and children he vill meet sudden death. A little thought?a little serious attention that you give to your busiless affairs, would save you from >uch a fate. Are youv doing any thing to assist n the CAREFUL CROSSING CAMPAIGN? Don't trust to luck. Use :ommon sense if you want to live ong. o It is hard to understand how any 'armer can spend his time squirrel lunting and town-loafing while cot;on stalks and other boll weevil hiding Pjf ices are. still undestroved on lis firm.
