PAGE TWO Aid For Needy Sought By U. N. Lake Success Top-ranking U. N. officials expressed the hope that the major powers would as sume responsibility for Europe’s economic recovery until the world organization is in a posi tion to handle the problem. They anxiously awaited Rus sian response to a British and French invitation to join these two countries in carrying out Secretary of State Marshall’s pro gram of economic aid to Europe. Secretary-General Trygve Lie, closely following reaction to the Marshall plan, said the United Nations presently does not have the machinery for handling the recovery program. He declared the Europe will be in a'serious plight unless the United States, Britian, Russia and France as sume co-operative leadership in Shis field. Lie has promised to place what ever U. N. machinery is needed at the disposal of the major pow ers if they agree to tackle Euro pean recovery. Talks Scheduled Just how the U. N. can help in the Marshall program is ex pected to be discussed this week between Gunnar Myrdal, chair man of the U. N. Economic Com- umUl We can take a lesson from the old horse and buggy days. So long as a horse remained between the shafts, travel ing was simple, but without that power the buggy was useless. So it is with the American family. So long as the earning power of th| family head remains intact, he and his family can prosper. Lose that earning power and the family falters. Occidental’s PERFECT PROTEC TION feature, coupled with its insurance, protects this earning power by paying an income when you are sick or disabled.

Some delegates here speculat ed on the possible effects of Rus sian participation in the Mar shall program. They pictured Russian participation as a step toward bridging the political gap reflected in Europe’s disjointed tconomy. Right now they are agreed that European politics and econo mics are out of step. Soviet participation inthe eco nomic aid program, it was be lieved, would probably raise these issues: 1. Russian ratification of the peace treaties with Italy, Roman ia, Bulgaria and Hungary. The United States and Britain already have ratified them. 2. The Austrian peace treaty on which Russia and the western powers have been unable to a gree. 3. Economic and monetary re forms in countries under Rus sian domination. 4. German economic recovery. The USDA recommended a 1947 fall pig production goal calling for farmers to keep 15 percent more sows than they kept to produce the 1946 fall crop now coming to market. The Everyday Counselor Rev. Herbert Spaugh, D. D. The seventh adjustment in mar riage is spiritual. This is the most important adjustment of all. A successful adjustment here fore tells a happy and useful mar riage. No home can succeed without the pretense and guidance of Al mighty God. A marriage, to be at its best, must have God in the center. The “I” of the two separ ate personalities in marriage must blend into “we.” Then “we” must learn to pray, “Not my will but thine be done.” As the God directed life is the successful life, so the God-directed mar riage indicates and foretells the successful home. For the Christ ian this should be the Christ centered home. The first act performed by the newelyweds immediately after their marriage in a church cere mony, is that of kneeling together in prayer. It is a beautiful sym bol of that spiritual unity which should continue throughout mar ried life. As arm in arm they knelt for prayer, so their spiri tual lives should be likewise uni fied. They should take this prayer lesson immediately into mar riage, following it with daily prayer together, and preferably aloud. The family altar is essen tial to a happy Christian home. There are many books of daily devotionals available for this in addition to the Bible. We can’t afford to be too busy to neglect thaat: if we are, we’re busier than the Lord ever intended for us to be. Both husband and wife should unite together in the same church and have the same pastor. They should go to work in that church. This often calls for one or the zither to give up their church. Sometimes it's better for both to leave their churches in which they are reared as children, and to find one in which they can happily unite. If the marriage commences by being divided in church loyalty, the door is open for other divi sions. And divisions have no place in a happy marriage I can recall very few cases of domes tic difficulty which have be'?n brought to this desk where hus band and wife have been united and active in the same church. This unity in church carries ov. r into their sniritual lives, and leads them to an appreciation of spiritual love which is th? high est form. Th > Creeks had a word for it “a'Tino." It was the word used bv J sus when he said. “A new commandment I giv unto you that ve love on? another."

And the young couple should unify their allegience to God by a common membership in the same church. This should be done immediately following marriage, and not post poned. Without love marriage cannot endure—the love of person, the love of companionship, the love of children, and the love of God. Farming Notes By H. D. Quessenberry July is here again and time to cut your meadow hay. Don’t be fooled into thinking that the extra hay that you will get by cutting hay late will be worth more than the smaller amount cut now which will be of a better quality. You are just kidding yourself when you think you are making money by letting your hay grow longer just to get more tons. All you are doing is let ting your hay turn to straw. Al though more tons per acre are made, the hay makes less pounds of beef or gallons of milk. This statement was proven by ex periments held at the Upper Mountain Experiment station in Ashe county. Part of the meadow hay that grows so well in our county was cut early—about the last of June. The rest of the hay was cut six weeks later, af*er the hay had bloomed. Two tests were run, one was with dry Hereford cows to see how they macle it over the winter on both early ancl late cut hay. Each cow was fed 20 pounds of hay per day over rgi hrs Me/mce fy? f^A.

Chevrolet Company WEST JEFFERSON NORTH CAROLINA a period oX 34 days. The results showed how wrong we are when we cut our hay late. The cows wintered on early cut hay gained 15 pounds per head. Those fed late cut hay lost 10 pounds per head. Think what those two fig ures mean. The late cut hay did not even keep the cows in as good physical condition as they were. You can’t make money in the livestock business when your cattle are losing weight instead of gaining on what you feed them. The second test, weaned calves were fed 8 pounds of hay per day plus 2 pounds of a grain mix ture. Which group of calves look ed better after 84 days? The story is the same as with the cows. Each calf received! 672 pounds of hay. Calves fed the early cut hay gained 22 pounds each. Cal ves fed the late cut hay gained only 12 pounds each. It took 56 pounds of late cut hay to make 1 pound of gain against only 30 % pounds of early cut hay. Our meadow hay which is mostly cut late yields about one ton per acre. Early cutting would reduce the yield about ¥4. In other words, about % of a ton per acre would be made. On the basis of the above gains, one acre of early cut hay would make a bout 49 pounds of gain and one acre of late cut hay would make about 35¥2 pounds of gain. In late cut hay you would have more hay to feed but it would not do the cattle as much good. As it has been put, “Why make a hay baler out of your cow by feeding her late cut hay?”. One other important fact— when the hay was cut early the return growth on the meadow gave more fall grazing than was gotten from the late cut hay. Any way you look at it, money is lost by cutting hay late. Young plants are nutritious and high in pro teins and total digestible nutri ents. When the plant ripens, there is a storing up of protein in the seed while the digestible nutrie nts of the leaves and stems de creases rapidly. Byway of summary, I would like to say, cut your hay early for best returns from your hay when it is fed and r member that early cutting makes better hay and gives more grazing bene- fits in the fall There is a time, fore very thing. There is only one time to make hay, that is early, before it turns to straw.
