BEAR MISTER EDITOR:
I see where the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture reports that
farm income is now down 10 per
cent from the 1949 level. The far
mers ain't plowing enough in the
right place. ; ;y
When I was a boy I recollect my
Grandpa telling how he got rid of
a feller that come to his house sel
ling books on bow to farm. Grand
pa said he told the feller, "I
ain't farming now half as good as
I know how." It's been 40 'years
since my Grandpa told that story
end I cant see much improvement.
The farmers is farming easier and
faster, but when they git 10 cent
a pound fer somepun that's selling
at the store fer 60 sent, they ain't
learned how to plow the middle
man under.
They was a piece in the papers
the other day about some town in
Utah thai has cut city taxes and
don't owne a dime and has got
money in rthe bank I'm disappoint
er in learning that we got such old
fashioned 'towns left in. this coun
try. I knowed a feller from Utah
onct and I always thought they
had real live-wire, modern, up and
coming, bustling towns that was
floating bonds, borrowing money,
and raising taxes and going m
debt fer all sorts of tilings like all
other good towns. I think they

need to have a election in that
town and git some fellers running
the place that knows about theseJ
new methods of progress.
. I wonder where the folks in that
town think we'd be in this country
today if our Federal Guvernment
hadn't gone in debt fer 285 billion
dollars. Where would we be today
if we wasn't borrowing money by
the billions and raising taxes and
gitting someplace? Come to think
about it. Mister Editor, where are
we today? .
Well, now that we're gitting a
new President in office, I hope the
political scars ain't as hard to heal
the November election. Incidental
political scars ain't as hardto heal
as they was in the old days. In
these times the candidates discuss
what they call the 'issues, but
when I was a boy the issues wasn't
never mentioned Tine candidate
always started . out accusing his
opponent of looking like Judas Is
carlot, acting like Benedict Arnold
and milking his neighbor's cow
through a crack in the fence. He
took it from there and worked
down.
As I was setting here writing this
piece I heard a news feller on the
radio announce that the Guvern
ment is reducing the number of
weather bureaus around the coun-
try. I hope they'll keep enough fer
us farmers and ranchers to git our
usual "widely scattered thunder
showers" from some place else,
Yours truly,
Uncle Pete
BIBLE FACTS

JUDGING ALL
Ho sea 14:9 - "Who is wise, and
he shall understand these things?
Prudent, and he shall know tbem?
for the ways of the Lord are right,
and the just shall walk in them;
but .the transgressors shall fall
therein." .
Since God-the one God-is holy,
active in history, alone creative
and omnipotent and since he re
quires righteousness of man, it fol
lows "as the night the day" that
all nations and persons are under
the judgement. Unless man is ac
countable to Him, his moral law
has no force." (
There is a divine purpose run
ning through history, and the
wickedness of man canot defeat '

it. It is what the historians call
the "moral soverignity it history
We live m a moral order, and what
ever is contrary to God is headed
for .disaster. None can escape his
judgment. "The ways of the Lord
are right," says one of the pro
phets and all of them are in agree
meat. There is no appeal from the
judgments of the Almighty. They
stand, not because of arbitrary now,
er, but because they are right The
upright man "shall, walk" (pro
gress) in his ways, but the trans
gressors shall fall there in." There
is no device by whioh this universe
may be made comfortable or se
cure for one who defies a holy
God. 'There are two ways and two
destinies, and between them each
must choose. Read Jeremiah 23:19,
29.
Some of the prophet's writings
are like the roll of thunder, warn
ing us of the approaching storm
They disturb;, our , complacency.
They challenge our easy optimism
"Behold a whirlwind, of the Lord
is gone forth with fury.'
Unless a tree is firmly rooted it
cannot stand the fury of a torna
do. Neither can the unrighteous
stand in the face of the testing of
life, which are the testings of God.
There is no security in wickedness.
Psalms 1:5,6 "Therefore the mv
godly shall not stand in the judg
ment, nor sinners in the congrega
tkm of the 0116009.' "For the
Lord knoweth the way of he righ
teous; but the ungodly shall per

The advantage of a free system
of economics over the communistic
system is that everyone Works be
cause he wants to. . Nobody makes
him take a particular, job' and if
he does not like It he can change.
Under communism a . commissar
puts you on the Job and If you quit
they take your food card away and
Under both systems the'1 work
has to be done. Peoole are haoDier
and better satisfied when they can;
have a choice as to what they do.
They work better. So all of us work
ing together produce more Which
is distributed among us alL The
more produced the more then is
to be divided, among us alL V-
Communism starts out ' with a
promise that everything will be
long to the people, but it ends ud
with everything being controlled
