Facts About the Laredo Soy Bean
C. G. e., Abel, Ga, writes:
1--WE wish to try some Laredo
soy beans this year, and as we
have never grown any, we would
appreciate your advice in the
matter. When should they be
planted and how much seed to
sow per acre? What kind and
how much fertilizer should be
used"
The Laredo soy bean is one Of the
best strains we have cultivated at
the college. 1t has been tested in
our demonstration field for the past
six years. During that time it made
an average yield OF 81 tons of hay
per acre and approximately nineteen
bushels of seed. The O-too-tan made
q larger yield OF hay, but not SO
much grain. The Southern Prolific
made considerably less hay, but
somewhat more grain. AS a general
purpose bean, the Laredo seems to
stand, therefore, near the top of the
list. 1t Is a fine-stemmed, fairly up
right growing variety. Therefore, it
makes a superior quality of hay.
This Is an important matter to bear
in mind 1t also has a sufficiently
upright character Of growth to make
it easily harvested. The seeds are
very small. Hence, If the grain is
dropped four to six inches apart In
the drill and the drills are made
three feet apart, only about two
quarts of seed are required to plant
an acre. Some people have obtained
good stands from the use of a quart

/ But this very situation was the
thing that drove Hannah to her
knees. If Penninah had been half
way decent to her she would never
have prayed as she did; but Pen
i ninahs bitter and open hostility
amounting almost to persecution at
the annual feast made Hannah cry
out in bitterness Of soul and con-
tinue praying even after her lips
could no more utter the cravings Of
her heart.
Eli, the degenerate old priest, saw
this. To show how utterly degen-
crate the people had become-for,
like people, like priest" the life of
the priest reflected the character of
the people-their representative
couldn't distinguish an earnest
worshipper from a drunken woman!
But, marvellous grace Of God, He
used this degenerate old priest as
His mouthpiece and told Hannah
that her prayer had been heard And
| in due process of time after Hannah
and Elkanah went back to their
home, the child of prayer was born
and given name which marked
him-"asked of God" Samuel. NO
wonder Samuel became the man Of
prayer that he was.
His Childhood's Atmosphere
There was another element in his
| preparation that had a marked in
| fluence she exerted over him during
he was weaned-about five years,
and then brought him to live in the
temple at Shiloh. The kind Of in
| fulence she exerted over him during
| those impressionable years of his
early childhood may be imagined by
studying carefully her song when
| she presented him before 1ehoVah.
| That song was the outgrowth of her
! life-it is wholly a song of praise to
| Jehovah, recounting what He is and
what He is doing and what He will
do. Her heart had been basking in
the sunlight of Jehovah's presence,
or she could never have given utter
ance to- that song. And of course,
she had been talking of Him to that
boy Of hers, grooming lullabies to
him Of Jehovah, telling him bedtime
stories Of Jehovah and Jehovahs
dealings "a far better subject, by the
way, than the bedtime stories Of to-
day. quieting his childish fears with
assurances of Jehovah's presence
i! and power, and implanting in his
childish heart the ambition to grow
up to be Jehovah's man.
Then as soon as she could leave him
Ito another she brought him to Shi-
lob, and true to her VOW, lent him to
Jehovah for life: reserving to her
self the privilege and pleasure Of
supplying his temporal needs from
| year to year, while he, the child, min
isterd unto Jeovah before Eli, the
priest.
The shocking degeneracy of the
sons of lFundoubtedly made a hor-
| rible impression on the growing boy.
Had it been less open and fragrant,
it might have done him harm; but
it was too disgusting to be danger
uos. The drunken sot doesn't do
the growing youth harm in our day;
seeing him in his degradation and
filth will never make a drunkard Of
your boy. but far more dangerous
because more subtle is the influence
of the respectable gentleman who
| drinks but never gets drunk.
| In the face Of such outrageous
conduct the child Samuel grew on
and increased in favor both with Je-
.hovah and also with men" Then
God spoke to him and revealed to
| him His will. He had somebody now

FARM EDUCATION
BY DIR. ANDREW M. SOULE

Of seed, but we think It better to
use a larger amount than that for
fear a poor stand may result, from
economizing too much on the use
Of seed. Soy beans may be broad
casted. This of course calls for the
use Of much more seed. We do not
think broadcasting is as satisfactory
? practice as planting in drills.
The fertilization of this crop is an
important matter. On thin lands, q
little nitrogen may be used. A 9-1-3
can be used to advantage In many
instances. From three to four hun
dred pounds Of fertilizer per acre
will also prove a profitable invest
ment. Like all legumes, this crop
will respond to the use of lime.
Crushed, raw rock may be used to
advantage for this purpose. One
thousand pounds and upward may
be applied per acre. Do not mix the
lime with the fertilizer, and put 1t
on some days in advance Of the seed
ing of the crop. You merely harrow
it into the surface of the ground.
Soy beans can be grown with corn
to advantage. There is no crop
which does better, though they do
not stand shading quite so we'll as
cowpeas. The Laredo began natures
in a somewhat shorter period Of time
than the O-too-tan. When this crop
is planted and a stand Is obtained,
clean cultivation should be practiced
as long as possible. Implements suit
ed to the planting and handling of
corn or cotton are we'll adapted to
the handling of this crop.

The Ark Taken
During all of these years the Phil
istines had been expressing Israel.
Samson had judged Israel, but he
had not delivered them from the
hand Of the Philistines. He had
shown Israel that God was still
strong, but he had led Israel to God.
Ever and anon they would resist,
but he rebuffed One day when
Samuel was still young man, but
was beginning to be recognized as
one who was in favor with God and
to be Gods prophet, the Israelites
assayed to throw off the yoke Of the
Philistines. They gathered in battle
array at Ebenezer, but were smltten
before the Philistines. Then they
sent to Shiloh forethe ark, thinking
that there would be some magical
power in that gold-covered box. Eli
was too weak to prevent them from
taking it away; he had no business
letting it go without Gods direction.
The ark, without God, was power
less, of course, and the battle went
against Israel. The ark was taken,
the sons of Eli slain, and when this
news reached Shiloh by a runner,
two other lives were lost-old Eli
fell off the gate backwards and broke
his neck, and his daughter-in-law
gave her life In giving birth to a
son, whom she named in dying,
Ichabod, 1.-The glory is departed"
The ark was in captivity for seven
months, but what the Philistines had
thought a great trophy Of victory
proved to be a great curse. Artor
being in five cities, it was placed on
a wagon to which were hitched two
milk COWS, who, contrary to all the
laws of nature, left their bEeating
calves, and, lowing as they weRt,
hauled that wagon away from tina
stalls in which their calves were
tied and into the land of Israel. For
twenty more years the ark was away
from Shiloh.

Golden Text: "Direct your hearts
unto Jehovah, and serve Him only
j Sam. 7:3.
y I'm those days there was no lline
in Israel: every man did that which
was right in his own eyes," SO end;
the Book of the Judges. And OF
which was right in his own eyes
the result was chaos, misery, sin
degradation, disaster. One Of the
hardest things for humanity to learn
is the fact that man is not capable
of working out his own destiny, that
his heart is essentially wrong, ano
therefore his life must be essentially
wrong until his heart has been
changed, until he has handed over
his life to the keeping Of another
who is wiser and stronger than he
Nor has man learned that truth yet
no League of Nations nor World
Court, nor peace tribunal can ever
solve the worlds problems. This old
world needs a king, the One VINO
came and was rejected; but who Is
coming again. Until men give Him
their hearts and put themselves I'm
der His leadership, and let Him
work out their problems, nothing
but disaster can be the result. Man
Is incapable of elfgovernment.
It was in such times as these that
the last and greatest of the Judges
arose. He was also the first of the
prophets, the leader of that tran
sition period from the people as
very loosely-formed federation OF
tribes to a nation. He was the link
that closed up the old order and set
Up the new. In a time when every
man did that which was right In his
kown eyes, there was needed man
y no was in such close touch with
God that he could discover what
was right in Gods eyes and make
this. known to the people. Such a
man must have at least one pre-
dominant characteristic; he must be
a man Of prayer. How eminently
fitting, therefore, that this man OF
prayer should be the child of prayer.
A Mothers Prayer
The man whom God used at such
a time was the result Of his moth
er's prayers. The circumstances
were these: A man of the tribe OF
Levi, who lived in one of the Levitt
ical towns in the hill country OF
Ephrium. had two wives; and as
usual under such circumstances
there was unhappiness in his home.
One of them was the mother of a
nli4nber of children. and the other
had none. This was the beginning
of the trouble, for to be barren was
considered a disgrace to every He
brew wife; for every one honed that
she might be the mother Of the
promised seed. Things might have
not been so bad if Pennfnah, the
fruitful wife, had not been Of such
q. despicable spirit: but she constant
Iy threw her barrenness. her curse
in, Hannah's face. And to show how
despicable she was. she took par
tfctIar delight in doing this at the
annual feast, when the whole fam
ilya went up to Jerusalem to wor
ship. She was very far from a spir-
it of worship. 1t is possible that
Elkanah, her husband, was partly
responsible for this, innocently; for
seeing how distressed Hannah was
he would give her twice az much
as he gave Penninah, and show hel
more attentions. Penninah, OF
course, resented this. particularly
that he should favor the barren one
more than the fruitful one. And sc
the whole thing was more and more
of a mess.
