much needed fertilizer has been found
in the Dead Sea.
The Dead Sea is located 35 miles
from Jerusalem, and is almost in
the heart of Palestine, Provident
Blessing, when great quantity of
fertilizer was needed to restore the
soil to its ancient fertility This vast
amount of potash that has always
been in the Dead Sea, was discov-
cred and Immediately put to use.
Again l say, truely a Godsend.
The Dead Sea has long been looked
upon as a place of desolation and
dormant sea level, very sharp con-
trast though only 35 miles apart.
Establishing A National Home.
Jews are entering into the task of
making Palestine once more a Ma
tional Home in spite of recent Arabic
disturbances and riots. They are
building, building, building every
where, modern buildings that favor
ably compare with in any of our
cities up to half million population
are Springing up like mushrooms.
Modern new homes are being erected
In a wholesale manner They are
building in cities and villages, on
the plain and in the mountain, on
the banks of the Jordan and on the
shores of the Dead Sea, also on the
shores of the beautiful Galilee, ev-
erywhere. For the people who have
been scattered to the ends of the
earth are combining enthusiasm and
diligence with the latest scientific
discoveries and the results are MOTH
ing short of miracles.
The wastes are being built as pro-
phesied, the desolate lands have been
titled as prophesied and the land is
becoming like garden of Eden, pre-
clsely as prophesied $500 years ago.
Jerusalem Same as Prophesied.
The modern new city of Jerusa-
lem as prophesied and described by
Jeremiah in the 31st chapter CEN
turtles ago, described the area outside
walls of the old city of Jerusalem
and it is exactly as this description.
Land in this new, modern part of
the city has greatly increased in
value. City building lots that could
have been bought for $500 in 1882
now sell for $4,000 to $4,000. Build
ing values in the new city in the last
seven years has increased in some
cases fifty to hundred times in value.
The new city of Jerusalem is a
very modern city. 1t has a modern
system of bus transportation, modern
system of schools supported by the
Jewish agency equal to that of any
place in the world Modern stores
that will favorably compare with the
stores in Minneapolis, Chicago or
New York. Office buildings that are
exceptionally modern. The new city
of Jerusalem has one of the most
aristocratic hotels in the world, the
King David hotel. Modern hospitals
where some of the greatest Jewish
medical scientists practice. Modern
schools and colleges and a Hebrew
university that is today considered

very outstanding, hence one of the
greatest universities of the world.
: A Former Migration.
The most remarkable migration of
a nation from one land to another
in the history of the world took
place $500 years ago when Moses,
the law giver, the giver of the Ten
Commandments, led the Jews out
of Egypt amid signs and wonders
such as never before had been wit
messed. The children of Israel left
Egypt and began their journey to
Palestine, the land of the "Chosen
People" The spectacle was so
astounding that neighboring nations
were filled with wonder and amaze
ment and the great name of God
of Israel was magnifed because of
the magnitude and unprecedented
event, among the non-believers and
heather for centuries thereafter
We who are living in this generation
have the unique privilege of see
ing the second great expulsion of the
from one land but from many. The
migration of today is to that same
Palestine, to the land of the chosen
people, the same promised land to
which the Hebrew journeyed $500
years ago. The present movement
is much more amazing than the first
one. Centuries ago it was war that
disrupted the people and paved the
way for the settlement of the chosen
people.
In these days it took almost a
whole world, 'The World War;" of
which the United States participated,
to free Palestine from the grip of
the Turks and to return the land to
the Jews as their National Home
In ancient times Pharaoh oppressed
and prosecuted the Jew and Moses
delivered them to Palestine Today
we have modern pharaoh, known
to us as Hitler and his Germany
Zionist movements and affiliated
Jewish agencies are helping to take
the Jews out of the land of oppres-
sion to their ancient Home Land, but
as in Pharaoh's time it was the pres
ence of God in the form of a pillar
or cloud by day and a pillar of fire
by night, that led the Israelites out
Of Egypt to Palestine. So today it
is the same Invisible Leader, who is
the real director of the present mi
grafton to Palestine, to the promised

land, to the land of their forefathers-
1t is striking proof of the super
natural inspiration of the Bible, that
the prophet, jeremiah, more than
$500 years ago with the exact pre-
ciseness, foretold the remarkable mi
grafton that is taking place before
our very eyes, in jeremiah, Chapter
Is, verses IA and Is, 1 quote:
Therefore, behold, the days come,
saith the Lord, that it shall no more
be said, The Lord, liveth, that
brought up the children of Israel out
of the land of Egypt; but, the Lord
liveth that brought up the children
of Israel from the land of the north.
and from all the lands whittier he
had driven them; and l will bring
them again unto their land that 1
gave unto their fathers"
In conclusion may 1 ask you, are
prophesies being fulfilled?

and deSolate land shall be tiled
whereas it lay desolate in the sight
OF all that pass by, and they shall
say, this land that was desolate is
become like the garden of Eden. y
That expresses my sentiment and
opinion. The passage is true ex-
preston of my feelings. When one
witnesses the modern fruit groves
contraSted by the Arab growers
whose groves are either alongside OF
the Jews groves or across the road
religion reaches or touches one as
never before. One sees the Arab
exactly as he existed in the last 2O0(
years, poorly clothed, dirty and filthy
his groves i'll kept, his little shack
containing one room, where several
children eat and sleep. In addi-
ton to the children, goat or two
mules or jackass, all in the same
room, l then realized that religious
prophecies have good foundation ano
are good food for common sense
thought.
Mr.. Klein continues by say
ing that i'll feeling exists between
the Arab and the Jew because
of some of the younger educated
Arabs falsely preaching among
them about the Jewish eXploita-
ton of the poor Arabs lands,
when in fact it was the wealthy
Arabs who had exploited them
That, said Mr.. Klein was the be-
ginning of the real hostile feel
ing between the Arab and the
Jew and because of that the Arab
will not trade with or employ
the Jew and vice versa. How
ever, the Jewish immigration has
been instrumental in raising the
standard of living for the labor
ing class.
The speaker told how the soil
of Palestine has been abused
during the past 1000 years and
how the Jews were again bring
ing it back into fertility. One of
the ideals of the Jews return to
Palestine is to establish a Jew
iSh National Home
Mr.. Klein also explained the
Before Declaration which was
formally approved by the allied
powers, each in turn. The Peace
Conference of which former
President Wilson was a men,
Der, received a Jewish delega-
ton and the Declaration was
accepted as a basis of reference
in drafting the League of Ma
tons English mandate for Pale
slime and was made part of the
famous document. The histor-
ical connection of the Jewish
people with Palestine was rec
ognized as an important factor
MIR. Klein also told how Jew
ish Agencies are collecting con-
tributiOnS from every nook and
corner of the earth for assist
ance in the return of their people
to ''the Promised Land" He told
of the immigrants thorough
training and that the most SCI
entific methods are used in their
many undertakings of rehabilita-
ton. Every scientific method
known in agriculture is taught.
Every candidate for immigration
must pass rigid tests in his fitness
to take part in the new order in
Palestine, before he is allowed to
sail, for there will be much work
in an agricultural way in Pale
slime after 1000 years of mis-
handling of the soil.

ices in the Askov Cooperative AS
ISOLATION feed store the first of this
week and left Tuesday evening for
Minneapolis where he has found more
suitable employment Chas. Krantz
is temporarily taking his place in the

The fine spring weather this week
has surely made things hum, espe-
cially as far as farm work is con-
cerned. Every one is busy now with
the customary work and most of the
fields are in fine condition for the
work. The moisture from winter
snow and spring rains has soaked
in deeper than usual.
John H. Sorensen has accepted a
position in a garage at Brainerd and
started there the first of this week.
Mr.. Sorensen has terminated his ga
rage business here and has taken
most of his equipment with him. The
Sebald Motor Company is making
arrangements to take over the build
ing vacated by Mr.. Sorensen.
1t is several years since the auto
mobile business here has doomed
to the extent of having autos shipped
in by carload lots. Such was the
case, however, when the Sebald Mo-
tor Sales unloaded a carload of Fords
the first of this week, and incident
ally they have another carload on
the way. Clarence Morgensen, the
super" car salesman, seems to dis
pose of them as fast as he can get
them in.
