and their moral history are precious
in God's sight, that every human be
ing nas value in the esteem of Hv
en as endowed with reason and free
will, and subject to infinite mnrni
possibilities. On this earth, men are
very cheap in one another's esteem
lor various reasons, theoretical and
practical. Jesus assures us that, in
Heaven, human beings are not valued
so cneaply."
One feature of the story of the
lost sheep should be interesting to
me average man and woman of to
day. It is this, that the lost sheen
nad no intention of wilfully deserting
tne Ilock. It had carelessly and
heedlessly plodded along its way,
turning aside to enjoy a tempting
bit of pasture here and there, too
engrossed with the material pleas
ures of each moment to keep in mind
the leadership of the shepherd and
the companionship of the other sheep.
Its danger came when it was senar-
ated and was only realized in a mo
ment of si:.'j rised awakening. One
of the dan.;en o our own enjoyable
and engnosiiig age lies in this

been absent and his absence had
worked on the teacher's sense of re

written from Corinth Paul soueht to
explain how Christ died for the un
godly and offered them an avenue of
escape from divine condemnation.
The atonement, its necessity and its
operation, is not easily, understood or
completely grasped except through
the exercise of faith. We are told
that God reconciled the world to Him
self through Jesus Christ and if we
consider God as the embodiment of
truth, love, service and righteousness.
and picture against that divine back
ground the reality of human deceit,
hate, selfishness and pride, we can
understand how Jesus, in calling men
to a higher and more spiritual life.
bringing mankind into closer har
mony with the perfection of the di
vine, acted as a reconciler of God
and man. If we could gaze upon
human poverty, misery and sinfulness
in all its terroi, as a God of right
eousness and holiness can, we might
be able to realize that no sacrifice
and no suffering would be too great
as a manifestation of (life in order
to bring to those suffering with such
afflictions, the joy and peace and
eternal life or divinity.

Korean Lespedeza Not
Suited To Coastal Plain
Farmers of the Coastal Plain
should pliant Kobe lespedeza; those
in' the Piedmont caji get satisfactory
results from Korean lespedeza on
better soils, advises E. C. Blair,
agronomist of the State College Ex
tension Service. Korean is not adapt
ed to the Coastal Plain, he says. .
Blair stated that the scarcity and
high price of Kobe variety seed will
undoubtedly cause Coastal Plain
farmers to sow Korean instead.
"These farmers are likely to be dis
appointed," he declared. "Korean
lespedeza makes a very weak irrowth
on most Coastal Plain soils, espec
ially on the very sandy and very acid
soils."
The Extension specialist says that
Kobe Jespedeza is well worth the dif
ference in price of seed, because of
its far greater yield in hay. The
seed can be made to go further by
drilling them on small grain instead
of broadcasting them. If drilled
one-half inch deep in late February,
with superphosphate, basic slag, fer
tilizer, or lime, 15 pounds of seed
will plant an acre. Thirty or more
pounds of seed should be used when
broadcast.
Blair suggests that Coastal Plain
farmers use soybeans or cowpeas for
a hay crop if Kobe lespedeza seed
I cannot be obtained. Good hale varie
ties of soybeans are Otootan, Clem
son, and Laredo, whiOe Iron and
Brabham rank among the best of the
cowpeas. They are also resistant to
wilt.
For best results in the Coastal
Plain, sow soybeans in June and fer
tilize with 400 pounds of 2-8-6 or
0-8-6 fertilizer per acre. Whether
or not to use 2 percent nitrogen de
pends upon the fertility of the soil.
The rate of seeding when broad
cast should be one bushel of cow
peas, three pecks of small soybean
seed, or one and one-half to two
bushels of large-seeded soybeans per
acre. Blair recommends ohnf
half of these amounts when planting
in narrow rows.

An "epidemic" of accidents
which persons have been killed as a
result of falling off of or out of mov
ing automobiles or trucks on North
Carolina streets and highways has
been noted in recent weeks, the
Highway Safety Division reported
this week.
Five such fatahties were recorded
in December, and two more during
uie nrst two weeks of January.
Reading of the accident reports
gives some idea of how these acci
dents happened. One renort said
"Two Negroes were ridinsr between
truck and trailer. A hoe ran out
into rear wheels of truck, causing
truck to bounce up, throwing Negro
irom trucK and unler wheels of
trailer. Killed instantly."
Another report simply saidr "TV
ceased fell out of car when right
door came open as car was rounding
curve.
In another instance, a boy riding
on the back of a truck, feffl off while
attempting to attract the driver's at
tention to get him to stop the truck
and let him off.
"Such accidents can be eliminated
if every driver in North Camlin
will refuse to carry any passengers
for whom they cannot find a seat
inside," said Ronald Hocutt, director
oi me gaiety division. "Further
more, all persons who rid in mntnr
vehicles as passengers should learn
that it is dangerous to Bean on door
handles'
"Falling: out of a movtnir vhfela
is sheer carelessness and can be pre
vented only bv the usa of UttU
common sense," he added. Tallin
off or being bounced off trucks Is an
inexcusable type of accident "which
is primarily up to drivers to control.'

reduces its fertility. Most crops
remove as much or more potash than
any other plant food and a great many
of them remove more potash than ni
trogen and phosphoric acid combined.
Unless care has been taken to replace
this necessary plant food each year,
chances are the potash now in your
soil together with what you apply in
ordinary fertilisation is not enough
to get you the yields and quality
which mean most profit.
Consult your county agent or experi
ment station about the amounts of
potash needed to grow the crops you
plan for 1941 and how much your soil
will supply. See your fertilizer dealer
early. He will tell you that there is plen
ty of potash on the market and show
you how little extra it will cost to apply
enough for greater returns on your in
vestment. Make more money in 1941.
