LESP.EDEZA
SAYS LESPEDEZA is THE BEST
FRIEND Or SOUTHERN
FARMER


friend, says DR.. A. b. Young or
Zacnary, La, as successful Louis
lana farmer. DR.. Young admits
this is a pretty broad assertion,
but says its truIn is easily Luoyed.a
Like other clovers ana all legu-
mes" continues DR.. Young, les
pedeza reaches out and taxes nj
|srogen iIom the air, stores it up
in the nodules at the roots, ana
leaves the soil much better for its
having been there. 1t is more
easily and more quickly cured tnan
any other hay, vesrllg out a hlgn-
food vaIue and giving a better bai-
anced ration than any, not except
ing alfalfa, and can be fed indefi-
nitely without irritation to the
kidneys, as is tne case with al1al-
ia. 1t will not salivate, nor bloat
any animal whatever, as do other
clovers. Stock prefer it to any
other pasturage, and they wax fat
upon It,"
I. DR.. Young thinks that no farmer
who plants oats snould ever fail to
SOW lespedeza on his oat land fIom
March until June, as this crop Will
always restore much of the nitl o.
gen taken up by the growing oats
and will afford an excellent pastur-
age after the oat crop has been
taken off, or it will yield from a
half to four tons of hay, according
to the fertility of the soil, Wit61ut
any ezra cost except the topping
of the weeds and the harvesting
of the crop.
I Many will say that lespdeza will
yield better on poor land than on
rich, but DIR. Young does not find
this to be the case; he does find,
however, that poor lands planted
ITO this crop soon becomes very rich
in nitrogen Rich lands have been
known to yield four tons Of choice
hay per acre, while poor lands the
first year may not yield more than
ha,lf ton per acre.
A good crop of Lespedeza hay
will permit farmer to turn much
of his corn or oats into money, says
DR.. Young, because by selling the
oats or corn he can spend little
of that money for black-strap mo-
lasses to pour over the hay to sup
ply all the carbohydrates needed,
land little more of the money for
cotton seed meal, which will regu-
late the protein element. This COM
binaticn makes the best balanced
lration, as we'll as the cheapest that
can be found. The hay produced
by the farmer supplies all the
4ougnage and s' good percentage OF
CARBOHYDRATES and protein, while
the cotton seed meal and molasses
csn regulate the last two elements
at will. One pound OF Gotten SEED
meal is equivalent to three pounds
| of grain protein content, and mo-
lasses is almost wholly CARBON
drates.
DR.. Young says that al least 20
pounds of Lespedeza seed should
be planted on an acre, if the best
results are 70 be obtained. Any far
mer,. anywhere, wishing to plant
| Lespedezs seed correctly, can OBJ
tain all necessary data, absolute
ly free, from the Lespedeza Seed
Growers Cooperative Association
Inc, Baton Rouge, La. The forego-
ing organization is composed OF ex
perts on Lespedeza hay and seed
and its proper cultivation. 1t de-
sired, they are in position to sup
ply comparative analysis of hay.

THE SUN AND MOON
STANDING STILL
By the Rev. GEORGE HENRY DOLE
Pastor of the Church of the New Jerusalem

The sun stood still. and the moor
stayed until the people had avenged
themselves upon their enemies. Is
not this written in the book OF
Jasher? Josh. X, IS.
Is It possible that the Lord would
overthrow natural law and disar-
range the universe 10 give victory
10 a small band OF werriors7 Could
lie not have done the same in a sim
pier way? Thus some reason, and
call the story a fiction. It was the
fIlhllment of a prophecy written in
the book of Jasher, a part of for
mer book OF Scripture, several times
referred to in our present Bible
(No. XXI, 14-30; II. Sam. 49,. The
vital point is not the stopping of the
sun and moon. He who gave the pill
lar of fire by night TO guide Israel,
who caused the glory that shown
round about the shepherds when the
Lord was born, who provided the
light as of a star that guided the
wisemen of the east, could likewise
give light TO Joshua as though the
sun and moon were stayed. Nor is
this of importance except to bring
the miracle within the category Of
Scripture. AS a mere
historical. the story is of no value
today. Let the mind penetrate TO
The merciful lesson portrayed by the
story.
Translate this miracle into our ex-
oerience and we will behold mar
yelous things that the Lord will do |
within us. The Christian, starting |
,ut to subdue the Holy Land with
n him, is Joshua. His holy land
