Say You Saw It In The News Idle Acreage No Longer Recommended Cultivation Needed For Tired Acres The "rest cure” treatment tot worn-out farm land is rapidly be coming a thing of the past, as farm ers are learning that “acres on va cation” are likely to deteriorate rather than increase In fertility lev el, according to J. C. Hackleman, professor of crops extension at the University of Illinois college of ag riculture. "Farmers formerly thought that if they put their 'tired acres’ into pasture, the land could be rested two or three years and would come back as productive and vigorous as ever,” Professor Hackleman point ed out. “The fact is that every ton of beef, pork or mutton or milk pro duced on these pastures removes nitrogen, phosphorus, potash and calcium or lime just as surely as does a crop of corn, oats, wheat or hay. "In addition, as these permanent pastures become less productive they provide less cover and the re sult is more loss through erosion. But these weary pastures are not hopeless cases, Professor Hackle man declares. The response of Phosphoric acio NITROGEN POTASH • •• 5% 10% 5% A 5-10-5 fertilizer contains 20 per cent of actual available plant food. The first figure in the fer tilizer analysis indicates the per centage of nitrogen (N), the sec ond phosphoric acid (P, 0.,) and the third available potash (K,). most of them to proper soil treat ment is almost miraculous. Five simple steps, he says, will transform the average worn out pasture into a productive acreage in one or, at most, two years. These steps are to test the soil and treat it with the necessary plant food mineral elements, disc these min erals thoroughly while preparing a reasonably good seedbed, reseed with a mixture of legumes and grasses, control grazing for at least a year and clip weeds, giving the legumes and grasses a chance. Professor Hackleman said that because of an increase of cultivat ed acreages during the war, a greater acreage is now ready for legumes than in prewar days. Pasturing of Turkeys Saves in Grain Feeds Not only will the pasturing of tur keys and poultry, if properly con ’J; J?

Orchard grass and ladino clover has been proven an effective pas ture for range turkeys and chick ens. Tests at regional laboratory.

LUNDQUIST. D. D. Os The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. Released by Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for August 25 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. JESUS AND PURE LIVING LESSON TEXT—Exodus 20:14; Prov erbs 4:14-23; Matthew 5:8: Philip pians 4:8. MEMORY SELECTION Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the Issues of life.—Proverbs 4:23. Moral corruption has been the ruin of the great nations of the earth, and if history is not to be repeated by the fall of our own nation, we must do something—yes, something prompt and drastic. The breakdown of morals in our land is so evident and so widespread as to give grave concern to social and national lead ers. What then, is the Church doing about it? We do not like to talk about adul tery and related sins. We must speak with care and tact, but per haps the time has come for some straightforward dealing with an un pleasant situation. I. Keep Your Home Pure (Exod. 20:14). As the divinely appointed center of man’s life, the home holds a place of such Importance that it is the special target of Satan’s offen sive. That has always been true, but it seems that in recent years the onslaught against the home has been intensified. Any violation of the divine plan for the marriage of one man and one woman, in loving communion for the founding and maintenance of the home, is a direct violation of the law of God. It is also a violation of the law of man. It brings serious results in the destruction of the home, and in the ruin of individual life—physical, moral and spiritual. This awful sin (and do not let a wicked world convince you that it is anything else) is back of much of the discord and divorce in our American homes. When we realize that in the City of Chicago there Is now one divorce for every three marriages, and that the ratio is rapidly becoming low er, there can be no question that divorce is a major evil in our day. Statistics are positively shocking, but they are cold and quickly forgot ten. But who can fail to see, and who can forget, the awful woe brought into American home life by divorce. Bad as it is, the awful effect on parents is nothing compared to the nervous, moral and spiritual shock which comes to children in broken homes. Statistics reveal that now (1946) more than 70 per cent of the juvenile delinquents and young people committed to prison come from homes where divorce has entered to break down and de stroy family life. n. Keep Yonr Heart Pure (Prov. 4:14-23; Matt. 5:8). Out of the heart are the issues of life (Prov. 4:23); hence it is of the utmost importance that it be kept in purity and devotion to God. The heart in Scripture does not refer to the physical organ which circulates the blood, but even as that heart is the center of the physical life, so there is a spiritual heart which is the very center of man’s Inner being. Evil thoughts, unholy desires and ambitions hidden in the heart will ultimately be revealed in overt acts of ungodliness, unless God is permit ted to regenerate that heart and make it clean. The solution for the problem of impurity is found in our lesson verses. First of all one must avoid the way of the wicked (Prov. 4:14- 17). They are so evil that they can not sleep until they have misled some poor souls and brought them down to their own level (v. 16). They make sin and immorality look mysterious and attractive. Don’t be led into sin by the enticement of curiosity. Shun the evil way, which goes down with increasing darkness, by seeking the good way which "shin eth more and more unto the perfect day” (Prov. 4:18, 19). The way of life is a bright and shining way. Don’t let Satan fool you, young peo ple, into thinking the opposite. It’s great to be a Christian! 111. Keep Your Head Pure (Phil. 4:8). The mind of man is quick and active (that is, if he is really alive and awake), and it wants to be oc cupied with something of interest. The world, the flesh and the devil are keenly aware of that fact and come to fill his mind with allure ments to sin and destruction. Thank God that no one need lack for things that are good, honorable, true and noble to fill and satisfy ev ery mental as well as spiritual In terest. God’s provision is not lim ited either In scope or variety. He provides the best, the most delight ful, the loveliest and most noble. Observe that it Is for us who know Christ as our Saviour to give our selves In diligent effort to “think on these things.” As we do we shall find that they crowd out our think ing those things which are sensual, selfish or sinful. It is a sound principle oi psychology as well as a spiritual admonition. It really works. A Friend In Need o A few clays back me an’ sum ov my nabers went over to the state capital on a little matter ov “civic interest.” It wuz a hot day but the ride wuz nice, the country side beautiful, an’ ov course the company wuz good. We got our little chore done an’ wuz home ward bound when “bang—fiz-z” out went a tire. Seems as tho it wuz a sight hotter right then than any time ov the day. We all got out an’ dug out wrenches an’ histin jacks frum the trunk ov the car, an then found that the car wuz settin’ kina on a hump ova place where we couldn’t git the histin’ jack under it. Before we could move the car er git a place scratched out fer to git the jack under the thing, along cum a young feller in work clothes. (We wuz all “dressed up” fitten to go to the capital.) Sez he, “Ye got a flat one?” “Yep” sez all ov us, Sez he, “Wait a minit, I got a good jack.” You know what that young feller done? He dug out one ov them new-fangled histin jacks that jist sort ov fold up like Grandad’s old accordion, slipped it under the axle ov the car, an’ histed the thing up quicker most than you could say, “Jack Robin son.” But he didn’t stop then, he jist grabbed the wrench, took off the wheel and in three er four minits he had the spare wheel on an’ everything ready to roll.
