PAGE TEN THE FRANKLIN PRESS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1325 jbcneath the letter. Annex a aozm 'more aimilar volumes that not only! Expound every picture set forth inj the book of 'Revelation' as conveyor of a tremendous truth of universal ; application throughout invisible de- 'greei of creation and life, but also illumine all the problems of eex aa presented throughout the universe! from the union of the love and wis dom in the divine down to sex crystal-! KiatioB in the mineral kingdom; in-1 dude the deepest of - all works ever! written entitled, in the original Latin,: 'Anglk Wisdom Concerning the' Di-i line Love and the Divine Wisdom.1! Ifcn answer to yourself the numbe ft yean that ought to be required to master these thirty-two volumes." ISeaa IWe Tim Any Other BoW Mr. Barron, still credulous, cos tin ued his correspondence with Uadame Galli-Curei for some months. Be leaned that soon after she lost her dear mother she had sought the Writings of Swedenborg in a desire. to know more about the other world whence her mother had gone. She spent the entire summer vacation studying Swedenborg's Works, and declared: "They have meant, and mean more to me than anything else I have ever read." When Galli-Curci returned from California Mr. Barron motored up into the CatsUlls to her beautiful Italian palace, and in an afternoon .with her and her husband, Mr. Homer Samuels, he was convinced that Galli Curei had read and devoured Sweden borg in a briefer period than any body had ever done before. He says of this interview: "Hours flew like minutes. I wasn't the questioner. Mr. and Mrs. Samuels were at me with the sharpest and deepest questions. They seemed in nerfect harmony mentally and spir itually, as in their work in music. Wanted to Learn "She wanted to know about the Grand Man'. I told her 4t would be taster to comprehend it if she would torego we iaea ol time and space and . consider, as Swedenborg says in 'The Apocalypse Explained, that every so ciety in the heavens connects with some organ of the human body and helps to sustain it Theref or, tjie tea tens have the organisation of the 'Grand Man', but we need not think of it as a shape or figure. "Y exclaimed her husband, 'I see it; it is organisation.' I explained, also, how the 'Psalms' likewise con eeeted with every society of the ' heavens, and how the world within and without was knit together in one grand poem and song of creation, man tn the image of his Maker and knit into Him through the heavens, from which he has life in every organ of his body. Swedwherg't 31 Velum Read la a Single Summer "'Now I understand,' she said, and asked me 'for explanation of other things. Her intelligent questions, at . well as her statements, left no man ner of doubt that Galli-Curci had performed the stupendous feat of reading the thirty-two volumes of Swedenborg in a single summer sea son. She declared 'Heaven and Hell' a very attractive and popular title and concerns that about which people are most eager to know; but Tt is not one of Swedenborg's great ' works; al though it makes a good popular and introductory work." ; -A Help in Her Work Galli-Curci understands the' writ ings of Swedenborg even better than theologians, because she puts them Into practice in the broadest life of loving helpfulness. She said that Swedenborg had helped her in her work. She had no longer to think of herself but of her audiences, and let the music flow through her: regard herself just, a medium for life to pour through. She felt with and for her audiences, and singing was no effort for her. All Pear Vanishes "The more you do the more you give forth the more life and energy 'i poured into you, and you are stronger and not weaker for the do ing, the working and the singing. I always feel stronger; 1 am not ex hausted at all by my singing. Swed- snborg shows the reason and how life comes in as you pour it forth usefully to others. You don't have to try or worry or fret. You know it is not you but that it is just being done through you," Speaking further of the help Swed enborg had been to her in her work ' she said: "One gets so much more confidence. The other World and the one life, that comprehends all life, becomes reality and all , fear and worry vanish." W. B.

Pays to Irrigate Say This Farmer A gross income of nearly nine hun dred dollars from a plot of ground lc4ss than an' acre in extent convinced D. G. Wilson of the Tyro community in Davidson county that 'it would pay him to irrigate when the seasons are dry. "Mr. Wilson is one of the success ful truck growers of Davidson coun ty," says County Agent C. A. Shef field. "This spring while most of our truck crops such as tomatoes and early Irish potatoes were a complete failure, Mr. Wilson irrigated his land and grew on about six-tenths of an acre, 210 bushels of Irish Cobbler potatoes.- Hesold these .on .the Salis bury and.Xexington mafrkets for an average of $2.05 per bushel, netting him $430.50 on his venture." To produce this yield of potatoes, Mr. Wilson used at the rate of 1,500 pounds of 7-5-5 fertilizer per acre and manured the land heavily before planting. Not all the plant food was used by the potatoes, reports County Agent Sheffield, and enough was left to pro duce a good general crop. The cost of seed, manure and fertilizer was $80, which left a profit on the potato ven ture of $350.50. . On another third of an acre m the same field, Mr. Wilson planted" out 900 Chalk's Jewel and Bonnie Best tomato plants which yielded a re turn of 50 cents per plant. The to matoes were sold on the, same mar ket as the potatoes and brought in $450. This makes a total of $8S0.5U worth of tomatoes and potatoes from less than one acre of land, states Mr. Sheffield, and shows what any farmer near a good market can do if he takes advantage of all opportunities offered him. The good yields produced on this land were made possiuie uy uv heavy fertilization and the use of irrigation. Must Choose Between Grass and Timber Fifty per cent of the farm timber land" in North Carolina is heinor out to the dual purpose of growing tim ber and providing pasturage. inis is about as impossible as for two bodies to occupy the same, space at the same time. "Our last farm census reports 2, 388,459 acres are in woodland," says R. W. Graeber, extension f orester , f or Statp Tlollecre' , "It 'is a common orac- tice for North Carolina farmers to pasture their woodland, and thus it annpars that about 50 oercent of the L l . - - " pasture land is being made to serve a dual purpose Woodland m pasture ic nnv a r1ar for rattle to en for ' vj ci protection from sun and flies during the hottest part ot the summer, as thpv roam through the woods, thev graze the scattered grass found inj the more open places, but at the i same time, they eat or trample any : seedling trees that might be in their , .wav" Mr. Graeber states that scarcity of forage in the woods keeps the cattle on the move seeking food. This con tinual trampling packs the ground and destroys the leaf litter which is easily blown or washed away, leaving the soil barren. When the mulch is removed, the woods;,attain an' unhealthy condition.

Therefore. Mr. Graeber suggests that enough of the land for pasture be ciearea ana the remainder allowed to grow timber. This, he states, would require less fencing and less upkeep, and at the same time would permit the farmer to grow more acres of. good timber. His Idea of Ducks Boy Submits His Observation of Lowly Fowl The duck is a low. tinderslune, heavy-set bird, composed mostly of meat, bill and feathers.
