"THE TURN TOWARD PEACE"
The Worran's Missionary society,
of the Forest City Methodist church,
has just finished the study of th.=
book.
There has never been so much
talk about peace in all the histoid
of the world. Yet while we are talk
ing peace we learn that theie is
much propoganda that might be the
underlying course of war. The rea
son it is so hard for nations to dis
arm is because they do not under
stand each other.
We learn from the study of this
book that there are peace organiza
tions in every country in the world.
In Japan alone there are over 50
international peace organizations.
Throughout the rest of the world
there are 232 with millions of mem
bers.
The department of education has
introduced into all text books a chap
ter on international co-operation and
the League of Nations has undertak
en not only to eliminate unfriendly
references to other countries, but to
include an account of their great
men. The trend of the times is
toward peace. Yet if today the world
is allowed to drift it will drift to
ward a war that has never been
equalled from a point of devastation, i
Which shall it be, peace or war? !
The answer to this question de
pends upon the deliberate effort
which men and women of today put
into the organized movement for
peace.

More Small Grain
Grown For Seed
5 Out of 86,800 bushels of small
strain inspected on 2,454 acres this
- summer, about 66,000 bushels passed
\
> the preliminary field requirements
for certification by the North Caro
s
> lina Crop Improvement Association.
"We were compelled to refuse cer
tification on about 20,000 bushels be
cause of noxious weeds, diseases, and
varietal mixtures," says Gordon K.
Middleton, seed specialist at Stat©
6 college. However, the results of our
field inspections this season show a
J gratifying increase in the acreage
and the number of persons who are
j growing small grain which may be
recommended for future seeding. In
1929, only 9,482 bushels of seed
grain were certified; last year, 1930,
5 there were 24,071 bushels. The tre
' roendous increase this season was
1 due largely to an increase in the
' j number of growers rather than to
j larger acreages on those farms where
such grain had been produced be
fore."
Mr. Middleton pays a tribute to
the county farm agents and voca
tional teachers who have aided in,
1 developing the interest in better farm
| seeds. He says 120 fields of grain in
j32 counties passed inspection this
year against 66 fields in 21 coun
ties in 1930.
Under present conditions, he be
lieves, with all prices for farm pro
duce at a low ebb, it is very impor
tant to keep the cost of production
at a low point and the quality of
product as high as possible. Nothing
helps in this more than the use of
[good seed. Even if the crop is grown
i simply for soil improvement and
feed, clean, improved seed will give
higher yields. Clean seed also les
sens the danger of infesting the
farm with noxious weeds.
The use of seed of the better, 1
high-producing varieties is one factor*
that cannot be overlooked, if there |
is to be an improvement in quality
of the produce grown for market
and if this produce is to be standard
ized to any degree, says Middleton.
CARD OF THANKS. s
We wish to thank our friends, j
neighbors and relatives for the kind
ness and sympathy shown us during
the sickness and death of our darling
daughter, Daisy Coleene, also thank- ,
ful for the many beautiful flowers.
May God bless each of you.

DEBT PAYING AND RELIGION
Roger Babson, the famous statis- J
tician and economist, is quoted as
saying: "Now is the,time for them
(preachers) to preach the Ten Com
mandments and the Golden Rule. If
each preacher would start a cam
paign to get all his congregation Jo
pay their bills > as they would have
others pay what is owed to them,
this depression would soon be over. |
Too many people want to ride today I
and too few are willing to haul. We )
want the other fellow to pay us, but
are we willing to make the necessary
sacrifice to pay him? Yet before,
prosperity will return this sacrifice!
[must be made, and the other fellow
must be treated as we would have
him treat us."
This great business layman is un
doubtedly right. Real prosperity i=
based ultimately on sound ethical
principles. In recent years there has
been, in the mad rush for financial
success, a vast amount of dishonesty
or near dishonesty. Men have bor
rowed without the probability of
Paying, and have bought when they
expected to default in payment.
