I IMITATE HIM: God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their tres passes unto them II Cor. 6:19. New Homes For Our Farms Agricultural areas are destined to become "places of beauty and abund ant" living," declares Robert P. Uer holz, president of tne National Asso ciation of Homebuilders, who asserts that the building industry is prepared to meet the demands lor at least one million new farm homes. This will be interesting news to the farmers of the nation and it is to be hoped that they will be able to find the money to finance the million homes that the building industry is ready to construct. It is possible that reduced farm indebtedness will make it possible for many agricul turists to build new homes or modern ize old ones. There is little argument as to the need ior new homes on the farms of the nation but their absence does not mean that the farmers, as a class, are uninterested in modem homes with every convenience. Before an inuiviuual can erect a home, even on a farm, he must manage somehow to acquire some cash and obtain reason able assurance of a dependable in come. If, in the post-war years, agricul ture is given a fair share of the na tional income and relieved of the bur den of the tariff, the outlook for farm homes would be very encouraging. However, it is based on the con tingencies listed and it will entail a determined fight on the part of farm ers to get the necessary action.

It seems our time is so well taken up you have to forget some of your per sonal matters and just take care of the most important ones. I do con sider it important that you get my new address so I can expect some thing through the mail at least once a week. Here's my new address . . . and thanks. LOUIS SPIVEY He said IT. S.

With Third Army. Visiting Home From Overseas Announcement that the War De partment has removed all limitations on the number of soldiers who may receive thirty-day furloughs, should not mislead the families of men overseas, because, after all, the war will continue until victory is achieved. General George C. Marshall has announced that the number of service men returning from war zones will "increase markedly" in the next few months and that theater commanders have the authority to permit the men to return whenever, in their Judge ment, they can be spared. It is natural, of course, for fam ilies to want to see the men who have been overseas and for the men themselves to want to see their fam ilies. While a great many may re ceive furloughs, the total of those who come home can only be a frac tion of those abroad. The people at home should extend a warm welcome to the fortunate sol diers, sailors, marines and airmen who get the coveted furloughs and remember, despite disappointment over the inability of others to return, that the men who come home have earned their furloughs. The services have set up a system by which to grant furloughs in accordance with a rule which, it is believed, is fair to all. Hello Max: I have been receiving The Weekly for many weeks here in the ETO. To say I enjoy it is to put it mildly It's truly a bit of Hertford received in a French field or farm house Please convey my thanks to the Hertford Banking Company for causing it- to be sent to me. A thoughtful deed well done. While I was in the States I had many leaves. I spent them in Hert ford, of course. In that way I kept up with my home town first hand, but now the only way of knowing the changes and goings-on in Hertford is by letters from home and The Weekly. Perhaps one great day before too Jong I'll be able to walk up to you on the streets of Hertford and say. "Thanks for the paper, Max, I en joyed it very much." Your friend, LT. EDISON HARRIS.

But so far it appears that the German Gen eral Staff can still plan and execute and that the military machine still functions. What can the General Staff do in the face of the Russian avalanche and what does it seem to be doing? The northern and southern flanks East Prussia and Silesia which had been counted on to contain any Rus sian drive must now be written off. The problem is to break or at least control the central spearhead now aimed straight at Berlin. Berlin is the center of a vast splderweb of railroads and highways. If it is possible for the Germans to stabilise any sort of line along the Oder and from the Oder south to the Sudeten Mountains, such a line could be supplied and backed up at critical points through this communications net work. If it is now too late to fortify arid man such a line, the General Staff has the alternative of grouping a striking force, an army, Egg Prices Show Drop In January Farm prices for U. S. Grade A large eggs in State poultry market ing centers dropped from a high of 52 cents per dozen during the first week in January to 40 cents at the end of the month, it is reported by John Winfield, N. C. Department of of maneuver, for a counterattack a' that place and moment the Russian drive appears nearest over-extended. Much of the evidence points toward such a counterattack rather than to- ( ward a defensive line. The counter attack is basic to German military stategy and tactics. An army of maneuver can be assembled much farther to the rear hence more ra pidly and moved to the chosen area. It can be grouped with more certainty than troops can be deploy ed on a long and fluid front. For several days there has been a heavy movement by rail and trucks from the west. Field Marshal Heinz Guderian, or whoever now commands the Reich's armies on the Eastern Front, might well wait until the Russian central columns had crossed the Oder and then strike out from Berlin with the city, at his back and the river behind the Russians. The success of such a move is another matter. So far Russian generalship and power have overwhelmed everything the Naris have thrown in. In any event, we may well look on Berlin, not as the goal line, the crossing of which would end the war in Europe, but as the pivot on which turns one of the waft last and most decisive plays.

It is the extra yield and quality that count when you add up the income from your farm at the end of the year. In many cases, a small investment for cn additional appli cation of potash makes that extra yield and quality. Increased supplies of potash now make possible the use of phosphate potash mixtures for top-dressing legumes and pastures and nitrogen-potash mixtures for side-dressing cotton, corn, and other crops. Consult your official agricultural advisers on what mixtures to apply to crops on your particular soils. Apply these, plant foods in the amounts recommended.
