TREES -
?. p?
In the Garden of Eden, planted by
God, "
There were goodly trees in the spring
ing sod?
Trees of Aeauty and height and grace,
To stand in splendor before His face.
Apple and hickory, ash and pear,
Oak and beech and the tulip rare.
The trembling aspepn, the noble pine,
? The sweeping elm by the river line.
Trees for the birds to build and sing,
And the lilac tree for a joy in the
spring. ?* r
Trees to turn at the frosty call
And carpet the ground for their Lord s
footfall. * ? ?
Trees for fruitage and fire and shade,
Trees for the cunning builder's trade.
Wood for the bow, the spear and the
flail, ?*.
The" keel and the mast of the daring
sail. *
He made them of every grain and
girth _ * ._V
For the use of man in the Garden of
Earth. .
Then lest the soul should not life her
eyes. .
Fropj the gifts to the Giver of Para
dise.
On the crown of the hill for all to
see,
God planted a scarlet maple tree.

Li The Christian Leader.
CAMPAIGN PUT ON FOR BETTER
FARMING % <
The full Energies of tl^e agricultural
extension service of the North Caroli
na State College will be devoted to a
campaign for better balanced farming
in the state during the year 1927.
Better balanced farming is more
businesslike fanning. <lt calls for
more food and feed crops and more
livestock and poultry on the cotton
and tobacco farms and it means a
greater degree of economic indepen
dence for the Tar Heel farmer if he
faithfully follows what he already
knows to be sound methods of agri
culture.
There is nothing new in what we
are offering as ourpirogrs>m
for this year, I. ^ - .
Wd of tte oxteaon ?*?*. -Nor
are the present conditions in the cot
ton growiri^ sections new. Disaster
with cotton has been remmon in the
past. Our workers have succeeded in
getting many farmers to abandpa the
all cotton or the all tobacco system
of Tanning in many, many instances,
and we have found that those farmers
- who have adopted what we have called
a live at home policy have succeeded
__ even beyond their expectations.
The campaign for a better balanced
system of farming began ori January
fourth after several weeks of prepa
ration by extension specialists Bet
ter fanning systems have been stud
ied by the agricultural workers. New
and old facts have been consulted;
practical farm experiences have been
drawn upon and economic facts have
been hauled from their hiding places.
r All of this matter was placed before
' the farm agents at their conference
m early December and the specialists,
themselves, have studied their accu
mulated data in order to serve the
farmers and ti? agents te best ad
vantage, The college has prepared
and issued extension., circular 163 in
an edition of 50,000 copies. This bul
letin gives the reasons for a better
balanced system of agriculture, shows
why it is imperative to adopt such a
system during 1927 and points out
nearly how it may be adopted on the
farms of North Carolina. i
"Sedentary work;" said the college
lecturer, "tends to lessen the endur
