Read II Corinthians 3:12-18
We all, with ope face behold
ing as in a glass the glory of the
Lord, are changed into the same
image from glory to glory, even
as by the Spirit of the Lord. T
(II Corinthians 3:18)
The Christian journey is one of
k progressive stages of growth
just as with an ear of corn there
is "first the blade, then the ear,
after that the full corn in the
ear." Perhaps we could para
phrase Jesus', illustration as s de
scription of the Christian's growth
first the convert to Christ, then
the new babe in Christ, and last
ly the mature soldier of Christ.
Once we have made the initial
acceptance of the Savior, we be
gin our walk with Him. We are
gradually changed to His very
likeness. As a plant either grows
or dies, so it is in the realm of
the spirit. There is no static con
dition for a Christian.
It is vitally important for the
Christian to receive maple spirit
ual food n the form of Bible read
ing, prayer, and fellowship. Each
of us needs to make frequent and
honest evaluation of his progress
concerning his growth in Christ
likeness. Prayer: Dear Lord, help us to
look unto Jesus, who is the author

WOOL INCENTIVE
PROGRAM NOTES
Wool production in the United
States in 1962 dropped below pro
duction in 1061. According to
Emory Robinson, Chairman Agri
cultural Stabilization and Conser
vation County Committee, ASCS
in Madison County and throughout
the Nation, operates a program
designed at increasing domestic
production of wool.
Wool is an essential and strate
gic commodity which is not pro
duced in sufficient quantity in tha
United States. "For this reason,"
he said, "Congress passed tha
Wool Act of 1954 which directed
the Secretary of Agriculture to
provide an incentive program
which would encourage an annual
production of 300 million pound
of shorn wool."
For the last few years the to1
centive price under the wool pro
gram has been set at 62 cents per
pound for shorn wool. The pro
gram provides that farmers mar-
iket their wool through the normal
channels obtaining the best pos
sible price for their production. At
the end of the marketing year, the
Department of Agriculture deter
mines the average National price
obtained by all wool growers for
their wool. The percentage re
quired to bring this National price
up to the 62-cent incentive level
is determined and all farmers who
market wool receive this percent
ape increase in their income from
wool sold.
According to Robinson, with the
exception of 19G2, every year this
program has been in effect it has
served its purpose by increasing
the National production of wool.
Should the National average price
received by wool producers through
out the Nation during 1963 reach
the 62-cent level then payments
will no longer be necessary.
ine onairman aslo issued a re
minder to producers, who marketed
shorn wool or shorn lambs during
the 1962 marketing year which
ends on March 31, 1963, that to
receive cash benefits under the
wool incentive program the pro
ducer must file his sales doeu
ments with the local ASCS
fice not later than April 80, 1

Mart Hill Boys
Hike From MHC
To Citizen Friday
Older men and the U. 8. Attor
ney General not-withstanding,
three Mars Hill College boys have
turned in their trek in the 1968
walking derby.
Roily Reel, Frank Simmons, and
Robert Brewington settled for
the distance from the college to
the Asheville Citizen office Fri
day night, an indeterminate dis
tance ranging from 26 to 20 miles,
depending on whom they asked.
They sported weary ankles,
muddy shoes, and the memory of
one dive into a ditch to escape an
inconsiderate driver on U. S. 28.
"Some of them weren't very
polite," remarked Reel, "and that
ditch was awfully muddy."
They also got rained on, but
found solace in the fact that the
terrian leveled off after Weaver
ville. The hills wore them down.
The trio returned to the campus
by other means, convinced that
50 miles is a long way. "How about
those old men out at Franklin,"
asked Reel, admiring the oldesters
who galloped from Clayton, Ga.,
to Franklin several days ago.

Teague Named As
County Chairman
For Referendum
Ernest Teague of the Teague
Milling Company, Marshall, has
been named county chairman for
a state-wide referendum to be
held among egg producers on A
pril 9. Announcement of the ap
pointment was made by James T.
Watson of Fairview, area chair
man, in cooperation with the
County Extension Office.
Poultry farmers will vote in the
referendum to decide on continua
tion of a promotional program to
boost the sale and consumption of
North Carolina produced eggs.
This program known as the Hen-ny-Penny
program, is financed by
a penny per hen assessment on
hens sold to processing plants. It
was started three years ago and
hsa focused national attention on
North Carolina as the "Good Egg
State."
Committee members for the ref
erendum and polling places will
be announced shortly. A referen
dum among cattle producers o n
financing the state's beef promo
tional program will also be held

PREMEAS11ING
WORK STARTED
Hurley Producers within Madi
son County who have filed for of
ficial premeasurement services by
ASCS Personnel, may expect a
representative to visit their farm
soon. Ralph Ramsey, ASCS Of
fice Manager, stated that seven
men with past experience in thia
type work completed their class
room training, field training, and
examinations this past week and'
have started working the farms
which had filed for this special
service. He further pointed out
that the work will be performed
by areas or communities rather
than in order of filing so as to
eliminate travel and to save time
but that if weather conditions im
prove the premeasurement work
should be completed on all farms
prior to planting time. Farmers
can be of tremendous help with
this work by determining in ad
vance the field which are to be
premeasured and have someone
available on the farm to assist
with the work when the reporter
visits the farm.
Ramsey pointed out that inter
