Lesson Tex: Lu&e 8:5-15 ?In the time of Jesus the region 'l around the Lake of Galilee was one t the moire densely populated sec tions. , Josephus, the Jewish histor ' san, estimates the number of people ' living there beyond a million, while ".modern scholars believe about haCl that number existed. At any rate, -; Galilee was a fertile field for mis trinnnrv work, and Jesus devoted i ' much of his time in that province, ' going through the various cities and villages. Luke" refers to one of these tours .9n e twelve apostles accom- '.'panied Jesus. Upon this little band of men would rest the hope of a per- .' manent following and no better ! training was possible than that of . being companions of Jesus, who, by ' example, taught them how his gos ' pel should be carried to men. The , twelve were witnesses of great deed and listened to wonderful words, so in later years, their testimony was . not based on rumor or report. Looking back at the methods r adopted by Jesus, do you wonder that he made no effort to establish t any formal society of those who be- lieved on him ? Do you marvel that, i in VUa miilcf rt mupVk inlllsHpA &Tld ii. iirc imuok wi i.auw j Jmusery, he attempted no organized ' '.Triform mnvpmpnt? Neither Q1Q ne y ask the cooperation of government, seeking to obtain by law the desir able and inevitable fruits of his 'lTeachirtg. These measures might of- ,lfer the appearance of "short cuts," ' of quick accomplishment, but Jesus v ignored them. 7 The new kingdom was to be based - on the individual's voluntary aller ; ; giance to high ideals. No force or coercion employed to compel accept " ance would result in the contented peacefulness of a willing convert Therefore, Jesus depended entirely , upon personal evangelism and exam s': pie to win men to his ways of life, f The sure and final solution- of our y: various social and ecdnomic problems rare not to be found in "short cuts," "but in the patient winning, one by y " one, of mankind to the way of love, selfTsacrifice, and "service.

A simple receptiveness and thoughtful attention usually opens the truth behind the story, but in volved in each' parable is a great amount of truth. The story of the sower, whose seed fell upon four different kinds of earth, namely, the hard-packed way side, the shallow stony ground, the improperly prepared thomy ground, and the receptive good soil, empha cizes the necessity for each man and woman to endeavor to place himself o herself in the proper capacity to receive eterna truth as it shall come his or her way. It is well to notice that this parable takes into consider ation the varying degrees of oppor tunity which hearers may have had to enable them to produce effective results, for, while the seed that fell in unfavorable soil died, the seed that fell on good soil varied consid erably in its return. No man or woman who doesn't try to develop spiritually can expect to receive the greatest harvest possible from the eternal spirit of truth. Jesus was fore-warning his fol lowers against the discouragements of the future, for while much seed was lost or proved unproductive, that which came to harvest would yield many times its value.

During the first three months of the present marketing season, the United States exported less than 300,000 bales of cotton, as compared with about 1,750,000 bales for the same period last year. A two-thirds majority of cotton farmers, voting in this and 18 other state in the cotton belt, is required to put quotas into effect Marketing Quotas Ease, War Effect On Cotton Cotton farmers are better prepared through the marketing quota provi sions of the AAA Farm Program to protect themselves from effects of the European War today than they were during the World War, says E. Y. Floyd, AAA executive officer of N. C. State College. The quotas will be continued if two-thirds of those voting approve in the referen dum scheduled for December 7. "Through the adjustment provi sions of the program and mar' eting quotas, farmers have the means to kep the supplies of cotton in line with demand something they did not have in 1914," Floyd declared. "As a result of being able to work cooperatively in adjusting produc tion, farmers learned then what hap pened when cotton was thrown on an oersupplied market. "In 1914-15 the war weakened de mand for the large American cotton crop and caused the price to drop from 2 cents to 6 cents. In con trast to this, since the outbreak of the European War in 1939 the farm price of cotton, supported by loans, has actually increased silhtgly, dp spite a large supply." World consumption til American cotton since 1902 nan been e;iual to or well above production in every year except 1337, according to Floyd. That year, when there was no ad justment program in effect, a bump er crop of 19,000,000 bales was pro duced. This large crop brought the surplus back to the 1933 levels, nulli fying the work of four years of cotton-supply adjustment. Cotton marketing quotas a n o acreage allotments are the farmers' tocis lor adjusting the supply ot cot to a to be placed on the market," the Iriple-A leader concluded. Timely Hints Given On Curing Of Pork Recent cool days have ushered in another hog killing season. More hogs are being slaughtered than can be immediately consumed. There fore, it is necessary to cure pork for 'uture use. Ellis Vestal, Extension swine spec ialist of N. C. State College, offers timely hints for curing pork on the farm. To keep meat from spoiling, he says, it is absolutely essential to use clean containers. Oak barrels are commonly used, but stone jars are more easily kept clean. Thor ough scrubbing and scalding are the proper methods of cleaning the con tainers. Salt is the basis of all meat curing. Some people prefer the brine cure; some the dry salt cure. They are the same except that water is used in the brine cure. The curing agents are salt, sugar, and saltpeter. ;Salt is the preservative and it drives out the s rnoiatdre and meat juices. Sugar, Is used ' to give the meat a Bweet flavor and to aid in counteracting the action of , salt which tends to make meat hard and dry. Brown sugar gives the best flavor. Saltpeter," or potassium ni trate, gives the red color to the meat, Without saltpeter, the meat is gray in color when it comes out of the cure. A ;-f , Beginners usually ret a more uni form cure with the brine method. However, this method Is not satisfac tory when the temperature is above 40 degrees Fahrenheit, . Under, warm conditions, the brine .will soar, aas ing the meat to apoil, ; Baking Soda is sometimes Used to. prevent 4 the sowing oi mm onne. t 5 County farm agents are prepared to furnish full directions for curing Ml dlwcUoM for curing he turn. .
