URGES PIT sIIOEs

]. P. Eagleton believes that II he
was farming dry lands he would
build pit silos and keep building
them. He advocates siloing all the
feed that can be raised and the hold
ing over of all that is not used dur
ing the winter. He believes that If
farmers in the dry land sections
had pit silos this season they would
have feed for their stock for several
years to come even tho there might

SHORT CROP OF HONEY

Honey is very short crop this
season in Crowley county. In dollars
and cents it is only about one-tenth
of what it was last year. The season
was a very poor one for honey pro-

were against it all spring and sum-
mer. The bees. so the bee men state,

The Wings OF the Soul
1 take my subject from the latter
part of the 40th chapter of Isaiah:
Even the youth shall faint and grow
weary, and the young men shall ut
terly fall, but they that wait upon
the Lord shall renew their Strength,
and shall mount up with wings as
eagles" David was impressed with
manly strength when he said, THE
sun in his course rejofceth as a young
man in his strength" People gather
in large numbers to witness exhibit
tions of great physical strength
which may be the expression OF brute
feroe only. Man in his greatest phys
ical strength cannot compete with
the donkey Or horse, examples Of
brute strength, but can excel in
Strength OF the trained mind which
Is superior to brute force.
So IL physical strength and endur-
ance are to be admired, how much
more admirable are mental and moral
strength-sacrificial strength in be-
half of others. Regretfully are we
impressed with the limitations of
mans moral strength; the inability
to resist temptation, to stand for the
right against opposition, to overcome
selfishness and envy and unholy de-
sires. When one becomes fully aware
that he is weak and that he needs
strength greater than his own to at
tain his ideals, he will be givon
strength, for he is then in a position
to receive it. "They that wait upon
the Lord shall renew their strength. -
The great Lord who createth all
fainteth not and they that trust to
Him renew their strength.
