The Parable of a Prodigal Father

A certain man had two sons, and the young
err of them said to his father: Father, give ME
the portion of thy time, and thy attention, and
thy companionship. and thy counsel which fall
eth to me-" And he divided unto them his liv-
ing, in that he paid the boys bills, and sent him
to a select preparatory school, and to dancing
school, and to college, and tried to believe that
he was doing his full duty by the boys.
And not many days after the father gath
cred all his interests and aspirations and ambi-
tons and took his journey into a far country,
into a land of stocks and bonds and securities
and other things which do not interest a boy;
and there he wasted his precious opportunity of
being a chum to his own son. And when he had
spent the very best of his life and had gained
money, but had failed to find satisfaction, there
arose a mighty famine in his heart; and he be-
gan to be in want of sympathy and real COM
partnership. And he went and joined himself to
one of the clubs of that country; and they
elected him chairman of the house committee
and president of the club and sent him to con-
gress. And he would fain have satisfied him
self with the husks that other men did eat, and
no man gave unto him any real friendship.
But when he came to himself, he said: "How
many men of my acquaintance have boys whom
they understand and who understand them.
who talk about their boys and associate with
their boys and seem perfectly happy in the
comradeship of their sons, and 1 perish here
with heart hungerl 1 will arise and go to my
son, and will say unto him: Son, I have sinned
against Heaven and in thy sight; I am no more
worthy to be called thy father; make me as one
of thy acquaintance" And he arose and
came to his SON. But. while he was yet afar
off, his son saw him and was moved with aston
ishment, and instead of running and falling on
his neck, he drew back and was i'll at ease. And
the father said unto his: Son, 1 have sinned
against Heaven in thy sight 1 am no more wor-
thy to be called thy father. Forgive me now
and let me be your friend" But the son said:
Not so, I wish it were possible, but it is too
late. There was a time when I wanted COM
panionship and counsel and to know things, but
you were too busy. l got companionship and I
got information, but I got the wrong kind and
now, alas, I am wretched in soul and body;
there is no more heart left in me, and there is
nothing you can do for me. 1t is too late, too
late, too late!"

The foreign material usually found

foreign material in wheat at the time

growth of wheat plants but favorable
to the growth of weeds.

wheat, has found that where the seed
Is carefully selected, cleaned, and

is exercised in cultivation and crop

WAY TO CONTROL CoCKLEBUR
First Essential Is to Prevent Weed
From Maturing Seed-shadlna
Crops Also Helps.

The first essential In cocklebur con-
troll is to prevent the weed from ma
turing seed. If the infested field is in
corn, the cultivation must be careful,
killing all the plants possible with the
CultivatOr and finishing the others by
hand or with the hoe.
Thlck-growing, shading crops help to
control the weed. Such crops as Sudan
grass, sorghum and even soy beans
and clover viii reduce the burs. A
badly infested field or part of a field
can be moved and burned. Fence
rows and other waste place should be
watched for stray plants which win
mature seeds unless attended to.

HENS NEED ANIMAL PROTEIN
Fowl Must Have Meat Of Some Kind
to Produce Eggs, No Matter How
Much Vegetable Given.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculturel
Those who have not learned by ex
perience are apt to conclude, using the
"pigs is pigs" reasoning, that protein
is protein whether it grows inside a
hide or upon a plant. But not all
proteins are alike and they do not
produce like results when taken into
the hens body. In a general way,
animal proteins and vegetable proteina
are alike in that both are nitrogen
GUS, but when the hen begins to make
them into eggs she finds there are i'm
portant differences that cannot be
overcome. But she must have animal
proteins in some amount, no matter
how much Of the other kind is avail
able. High vegetable-protein feeds can
replace some of the meat feed to ad
vantage, but not more than one-fourtb
to one-haf Of it.
Tests made by the United States
Department Of Agriculture show that
of the high vegetable-protein feeds
cottonseed meal is the best for egg
production. Peanutmeal comes next
followed by soy-bean meal and velvet
bean meal. In making up mash not
more than one-tenth Of it should be cot
tonseed meal, as the use of more cuts
down the egg yield materially and
may affect the quality Of the eggs, pro
ducing spots and blotches on the yolks
which make them look bad. Other
vegetable-protein feeds that may be
used to advantage are gluten and lin.
seed meal.

combating 1t. The rot decreases the
selling value of potatoes and often
leads to their complete decay in field,
In transit, or in storage.
Changes Into Deeayed Mass.
In the early stages of the disease
the tubers are marked with brownish
or purplish spots which later become
shrunken, darker colored, and finally
purpllsh black. In advanced stages
the tuber sometimes changes into a
wrinkled, decayed mass. This rot
fungus opens the way for bacteria and
other fungi that work more rapidly.
All pOtato-growing regions are sub
ject to the disease when very moist,
cool weather prevails during the grow
ing season. It occurs frequently In
severe form In the New England
states, adjacent Canada, and the Pu-
get Sound district, and less frequent
ly, though often in severe form, in
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa, in the mountain districts of the
eastern and western states, and in
Florida on the early crop.
Insure Control In Field.
Since the tuber rot impairs germina-
ton, the chances Of securing a good
stand are greatly increased by plant
ing only dlsease-free seed, but the
only method to insure control in the
field is by spraying with bordeaux
mixture e pounds Of copper sulphate,
8 pounds of stone lime, 80 gallons Of
water). To get good results the plants
should be sprayed thoroughly and fire.
quently, so that they will at all times
be covered with a thin film of spray
mixture.
It Is not advisable to dig a field
while the soil Is wet, but at times 1t
may be necessary to do so in order to
save part of the crop, though the
chances of losing much of it are great.
If tubers in transit or storage are kept
dry and at temperatures between 80
degrees and 40 degrees F. the disease
will develop little or not at all.
