How Program. By giving a
nickel to rsearch with each ton
of feed or fertilizer he buys, the
poultryman is supporting the re
search at North Carolina State.
Results of this research found
that dehydrated Coastal Ber
muda grass could be used as a
substitute for alfalfa meal in
poultry rations. This grass can
be grown in many sections of
North Carolina where alfalfa
does not do well. This is one ex
ample of how research can add
to the agricultural income of
North Carolina. The Nickels for

Jud?a Reform Will
Celebrate Sukkot
Judea Reform Congregation’s
Sabbath Service on Sunday wjll
give a special attention to the
ancient Festival of Sukkot. Rab
bi Efraim M. Rosenzweig will
preach on “Man and Earth . . .
a Contrast."
Sukkot is observed for eight
successive days, although the
eighth day is not part of Suk
kot proper. It is based upon two
biblical passages, Leviticus 23:42
and Deuteronomy 16: 13-15. It
is thus a festival of the ingath
ering, and therefore a harvest
festival (from which the Pil
grim Fathers derived the idea
for Thanksgiving day), and at
the same time a reminder of the
more stringent days in the wil
derness.
Three customs give Sukkot its
distinctive character: the build
ing of a booth or Sukkah in con
junction with home and/or
Synagogue; the use of the Lulab
Palm leaf, (myrtle and willow)
and Etrog (Citrous fruit); and
the reading at worship services
of the Book of Ecclesiastes.
Judea Reform Congregation
meets at the Friends Meeting
House on Alexander Street in
Durham each Friday at 8 p.m.,
and cordially welcomes guests
to attend its worship services.
