Less grain can be fed bymany dairy

Less grain can be fed by many dairy
men without reducing milk production.
provided they feed more silage and
legume hay. Less grain will be avail
able for feeding to cattle. for much
more than usual is needed now for
human food, and the emergency de-
mands that every effort be made for
its conservation. Milk production
must be maintained, hence every eff
fort should be made to substitute other
feeds for grain in the dairy ration.
Fruits and green vegetables are can
ned so as to supply %succulent and
palatable foods to the family during
the winter. Succulence is just as es-
sential to the COW as to the human be-
ing. The abundant milk flow obtained
from June pasture to a large extent is
due to the succulence of the grass.
Silsge provides succulent feed during
the winter when pasture is not avail
able. With silage in the ration dairy

60 TO SUNDAY SCHOOL
By ERNEST O. SELLERS
Director of Sunday School Cousee
Moody Bible Institute
BUSINESS MEN AND BIBLE
STUDY.

A MISSISSIPPI newspaper man
"A testifies that while he never
goes to church and makes no pre-
tense of being a Christian of the
accepted type, yet the book most
fascinating to him and chiefly read
is the Bible. Of course he places
his own Interpretation upon it's
teachings and has his own estimate
Of the various values found in diff
ferent parts of the book. That
there are thousands of mel. in this
country who thus read the Bible,
who admire its teachings and are
charmed with its style yet who
will not accept the expositions of
the pulpit and refuse to be gov
erned by the creeds of the church,
is undoubtedly true. The modern
Sunday school, with it's tremendous
recent development of the adult d.
vision, especially Of mems classes,
is seriously setting itself to the
task Of reaching men of this class.
It is furnishing them with an open
forum, a place where there is a
free exchange of thought and where
no obligation rests upon anyone to
accept any particular interpreta-
ton or subscribe to any dogma in
order to attend. Such men are
coming into these mems classes in
large numbers. They feel no re.
strictions laid upon them such as
must naturally exist in the usual
preaching and worship service Of
the church and finding themselves
in a congenial atmosphere and at
liberty freely to express their opin.
ions they speedily adapt them
selves to the spirit and work of
the adult division of the Sunday
school.
Usually such men are not pug
naciously welded to their own
ideas and pet hobbies, and they
discover in these classes a new
viewpoint. They are led to a
deeper personal study and q wider
charity for the views and opinions
of others, which frequently leads to
a most profound change in their
lives. Man by searching cannot find
out God, by thinking he cannot %.
cure life. Three millenniums Of
Hindu philosophy finds man wor.
Shipping the meanest and vilest of
beasts and easily conquered by an
alien people. The Hope Of Israel
alone brings Faith, Hope and Char.
ity. satisfies the need of our intel
lectual faculties and leads into all
truth.
