Amos was a herdsman called Of
God to be a prophet. A prophet is
one who speaks forth the message
Of God. He conVicts the people Of
their sins, pleads for them to get
right with God. The only effective
way to correct wrong social usage
Is to bring the people into right re-

ID Sold the righteous for silver

silver, declared the innocent to be
guilty.
(2) Sold the poor for pair Of
shoes ". 81. 1t doubtless referred
to the practice Of selling into slay-
cry the debtor who could not pay
for a pair of shoes which he had
been sold on credit.
(3) Pants after the dust of the
earth ". y. So avaricious had
these men become that they even
grasped after the earth which the
downtrodden poor cast upon their
head in their mourning because Of
their misery.
az Turned aside the way Of the
meek ". y. These grasping rich
men turned aside the meek, that is,
those who did not stand up for their
rights.
90 Licentiousness ". y. So no.
torious were the immoralities prac-
ticed that they were even guilty Of
incestuous prostitution. How ade-
quately this pictures the Hcentious-
ness Of our present age.
b. Reckless security (6:1-3). They
closed their eyes to the approach
ing storm of Judgment predicted by
the prophet.
c. Luxury (6:4-6). Their luxury
expressed itself in:

2. The remedy proposed (5:4-9).

large North American truck which

Highway No. 49,,
Ted Winger and Leo Owens, the
truck drivers, were headed south
west on the highway and had
turned to the left side of the road
to pass the highway road scraper
which was on the wrong side Of
the road to scrape the gravel to
the center of the road. The big
truck, driven very slowly, was
about two feet from the edge of
the ditch when the road, softened
by the rains, gave way and the
truck wheels on the left side slid
down the caving bank and the
truck gently rolled over on it's
side. The drivers shut the motor
off, crawled out Of the cab and
rushed to the back of the truck to

Questions Pertaining To
Agriculture and Home
Problems Confronting Farmers and
Homemakers Answered by
University Farm

L have heard that Golden Jewel
is q very fine variety of corn, but
would like TO know If seed from
Nicollet county would do well in
Mile Laos county.
I am very positive that Golden
Jewell corn grown in Nicollet
county will not be adapted to Mile
Laos county unless it should be in
an especially favored spot where
the soil is very rich and the field
protected from severe winds. An
early selection of Golden Jewel
might be satisfactory as silage,
under favorable conditions but
positively not as ear corn.-R. F.
Grim, Extension Agronomist.
How can extract cucumber
seed from the fruit?
One method OF removing cucum-
Der seed for home use is to scoop
the seed and adhering material
from the fruit and remove the pulp
material as much as possible, by
washing thoroughly by running
water through or over them. What
pulp remains can be removed easily
after the seed dries. Dry by
spreading out in thin layers in a
dry fairly warm room on ordinary
paper or plotting paper.-A. E.
Hutchins, Division of Horticulture.
What can be done to prevent
ground cherries from becoming
wormy?
Ground cherry worms can be
controlled to a considerable extent
by spraying with a solution made
up in the proportion of 2 pounds of
calcium or lead arsenate to so gal
Ions of water. For small plots use
IL to 2 ounces of the poison to 1
gallon of water. Cover the plants
thoroughly with the spray as soon
as the first blossoms appear and
repeat at ITO day intervals or Of
ten enough to keep the plants well
covered.-A. E. Hutchins, Division

ision OF Game and Fish coopera-
ting. The study was undertaken
following the receipt of numerous
complaints of alleged damage to
crops by pheasants. It was asceI-
tanned that much Of the damage
attributed to pheasants it being
caused by insecs, gophers, crows
and other birds.
Over so ringnecked pheasants
taken in the region from which
most of the complaints have come
were submitted to Ralph T. King
of the department of economic
zoology for an examination Of the
crop contents. An analysis of the
food taken, according to Mr.. Kings
report, shows that while "pheasants
have eaten some corn, they have
not done nearly the amount of
damage for which they have been
blamed"
An examination of the crop con
tents showed a large number of in
furious insects and weed seeds.
For the small amount of corn
pheasats may take, the birds per-
form a valuable service to farmers
which more than makes up for the
comparatively small cost entailled,"
Erling Swenson, Game and Fish
director, said.
Six soil erosion control camps
under the federal emergency work
program are now in operation in
southeastern Minnesota where con-
ditions have assumed critical pro-
portions, according to Walter S.
Olson, director of the Division of
Drainage and Waters. Camps are
located at Rochester, Zumbrota,
Caledonia, Spring Valley, Plain
view and Lewiston.
An additional seven camps are
planned to aid in carrying out
plans resulting from a survey con-
Quoted last winter under the dir
ection of Mr.. Olson. OF these, one
camp of Civilian Conservation
Corps workers will be devoted en-
tirely to water conservation with
40 to so projects included on the
Cannon River. This work is de-
signed to control levels in lakes
located between Faribault and
Mankato.
Actual work is being supervised
by the soil conservation service
of the u. S. department of agricul-
ture.
Officials of the state department
of conservation pointed out the
significance of conservation being
chosen as a chief topic for discus
sion at the annual meeting of the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science which will
be held in Minneapolis June "a to

ed homes. Some plants will need
lime, others alkaline, some neutral,
while a few are Indifferent
The mocassion flower or lady
slipper is sought by many wild
flower hunters, and often the
flowers or plants are gathered
ruthlessly or carelessly, without
any thought Of the future Of the
plant. This plant Is member Of
the orchid family Of plants, and
many respects, its temperament is
the same. therefore, not always
easily taken from the woods and
grown in the garden. One ought
not pluck flowers, nor dig plants,
when only few, or a single speci-
men is found. Remember that it
takes seven years from the time
the seed falls to the ground, until
1t has developed into another plant
in bloom, so it can be readily seen
how easily the species can be ex-
terminated by careless gathering.
Then again, If the flowers cannot
be placed soon after gathering in
to water, they are merely wasted.
A trillium flower, once plucked,
will cause the plant to die, as the
one single stem Is all that the plant
has to sustain life with. IF one
must have trilliums, the plants
should be taken up very carefully,
and moved to a congenial spot
with natural soil conditions.
I think the red wild lilies occas-
sionally found along the road, or
on a wild hillside, are very prettv.
How often when there is but one
or two solitary plants, the blooms
are picked, and perhaps miles
away from home, the flowers are
soon wilted and thrown away.
These lilies are becoming more
and more rare, and along with
other fine field flowers, are now
protected by state law.
Conservation of the wild flow
ers should be encouraged. Profess
sional collectors ana good botan-
lists, are careful not to take flow
ers or plants, unless found in
fairly large colonies, and then
whenever practical, scatter seed of
the plants in favorable spots.
Many Of the wild flowers are not
particularly snowy with a single
specimen or two, or that their
showiness does not last for any
great length Of time, hence, exper-
iments with wild gardens are not
always successful, but rather dis
appointing. The shy loneliness of
a trillium or some other spring
fairy is not for the one who asks
for display, especially in armfuls,
but rather for the real lover, who
can see a world of beauty in sin
gle small flower.
Perhaps, it may be well to repeat
Tennyson's words Of his flower
with the Grown of light that
grew till
"all the people cried
Splendid is the flower!"
and when it became plentiful
that all might have seed,
Nov again the people
Call it but weed"
This is true Of certain wild flow
ers that seed literally, and become
fairly common. Many flower was
pulled up or turned over because It
was plentiful, or seen every day.
And in another section, some one
will buy it out Of catalogue for
good money!

At this time of the year the wild
flowers begin to show their col
ors, that is, a great variety Of
them. Many are tempted to dig the
plants and bring them home, which
is often followed by failure. It is
well to remember that If success is
expected with the wildings, one
must initiate as closely as posi-
BILE their natural environment as
to soil conditions and amount of
shade or sun. Generally those spec
les along the roadsides are quite
easily managed, but those found in
moist meadows, and in rich, moist
woods are more difficult. The ma
tural conditions should be copied
as closely as possible. Plenty Of
