 Lenten Season Services The Lenten Season is another beautiful peace added to the won derful mosaic of The Christian Year. Lent is the forty days fast commem- orative of our Blessed LORDS fast in the wilderness for our sakes. The church of our Holy Mother, bids us withdraw from the world at this time. It IS the training necessary for us to fight against the world, the flesh, and the devil.
 The Lenten Season is in perfect accord with the Holy Scriptures, be- cause our MASTER set us the exam pie in HIS fast.
 We shall all do well to keep the fast, for well kept Lent means more blessed Easter.

Due Largely to Cutting Off Of
Supply From Russia and
Other Foreign Countries.
HEMP AND FLAX PREDOMINANT
Considerable Impetds Given TO Hemp
Growing 'by sintroduction Of Ma
chine Methods-Wisconsln
Leads All Other States

Fiber crops In the Upited States
show an increase fhls year, dueAarge-
ly to the growing realization Of the
American manufacturers Of the cut
ting off of supply from Russia and
other foreign countries, and the de-
velopment of hBersgrowing methods
in this country. !,
Hemp and fax are the principal
fiber crops in the United States. or
the former, $4,000 acres were grown
this. year, with an average yield of
700 pounds of fiber to the acre, dl.
vided about evenly between long fiber
worth on an average Of 20 cents a
pound. and tow, which now averages
10 cents a pound. This would bring.
an average value of the crop to $105
per acre, or St470,O00.
Flax acreage has increased from
5000 acres in 1919 to 6,000 acres in
1920. The yield is estimated at from
300 to 400 pounds of fiber per acre,
worth rs cents pound. The fax
crop is thus worth about sl,600.000.
Impetus to Hemp.
Hemp growing has received consid-
erable impetus since the United
States Department of Agriculture un-
derteok the work of breeding new
strains and ecouraglng modern ma
chine methods Of handling, about ten
years ago. This shows an interest
ing geographical shift in hemp p-grow

while the lead has gone to northern
states, Wisconsin supplying about half
the total acreage. Next come Mime

Kentucky's decline in relative posi-

did you ever stop to consider what
band of sheep Is worth as weed
exterminator?" asks California de-
partment of agriculture expert. "In
the first place the band is worth as
much in the destruction of weeds as
a man with a team and cultivator or
weeder through the season.
Secondly, there is big difference
In cultivating weeds out or moving
them and sheeping them off. Culti-
waiting or moving is an expensive
method for which you get nothing but
a little added hsmus to the soil,
whereas sheep turn your weeds into
marketable products at good prices, to
say nothing of added fertilizer In the
form of sheep manure deposited on
the fields.
ut has been remarked that small
band of sheep adds 81 900 to the av-
erage appearance of the ranch In five
years time, from the standpoint aof
weedless fields. However, In the long
run it is more than that. 1t is an
actual source of steady income"
