THE BIBLE TEACHES


that There is one baptism" (Eph- 40 BY this state
ment the apostle Paul cleared up many things for us. Before
he made this statement there had been more than one bap-
tSm and afterwards there was to be another but in the day
he made the statement and in the day in which we live it is
true.
Holy Spirit baptism, that special manifestation of Gods
power to the apostles and the first Gentle converts is not
now given. The baptism of fire which God shall pour upon
the ungodly in the day of his wrath is yet future. Therefore
in these days we have but "one baptism
This is a baptism in water according to the command of
Christ. He said, Go We therefore and teach all nations,
baptizing them" Matt. 28;l9l. Moreover, he said. HE that
beleveth and is baptized shall be saved" Mark 1919.
Therefore through this age of salvation, the dispensation Of
grace, we have the baptism, the one baptism, which he COM
manded.
Therefore we are buried with him through baptism into
death" Rom. 64). This lone baptism" is a burial in water
which is in order to procure our salvation. Not through its
own merit or power but in the merit and power of the
obedience of our faith it brings the blessing Of God. 1t is
the command of God through Jesus Christ and those who
love Hin will keep His commandments.
Let us have faith in God and in what The Bible Teaches.

Newspapers Are Praised For
Money Raising Work In War

Westinghouse. George Little,
who finishes up a money-raising
job at the treasury Friday, praised
American newspapers for "amaz-
ing support of the "most success
full war financing job the world
has ever known"
Titles resignation as special
newspaper consultant in the war
finance division becomes effective
Friday. He has been on leave as
president of General Features cor
poration, New York City.
In a letter to newspaper pub
fishers, he cited today the 18,543,-
600 lines of news and editorial
support which newspapers gave
during the war and victory loan
drives. In addition, he said, they
published more than $110,00O,O00
worth of bond advertising, much
of it contributed or sold to spon-
sors at reduced rates.
''This amazing contribution by
newspapers, to help finance and
win the toughest war in history"
Little said, should make every
newspaperman proud of his pro-
fesSion-proud, too, of the leader
ship and patriotism of his associ-
ates-but most of all, proud of
the glorious war record that news
papers made which will 60 a long
way toward furthering the cause
of free press throughout the
world.
There has never been more
convincing proof Of what a free
press can accomplish when it's en-
ergies are voluntarily marshalled
in a common cause for the good
of mankind. Newspapers great
war record should stand as last
ing monumental synbol-repre-
senting, forever, to a free people
the virtues of free speech and a
free press.
During the war years news
papers had more problems than
ever before yet there was never
a time when the treasury called
upon them for help that they fail
ed to come through"

Fred M. Vinson said in an inter-

addressing the North Carolina
Newspaper institute.
Initiation is under control at
present, but unless the price sta
bilization act is continued and
ample consumers foods are pro-
duced, the nation will be in a very
serious situation, Secretary Vim
son said.
Asked if the United States: will
lose out in foreign markets if the
present strikes, especially steel,
continue, he said that the United
States will not likely lose its mar
kets, but that shortage of such
items as machinery would greatly
hamper rapid feconversion in for

Plan Now to Smooth Out Those
Production Peaks and Valleys

Cattle grubs cause millions of
dollars of loss to dairymen annually,
the USDA tells us. The grubs, which
hatch into heel flies, irritate the cows
and cause a decline in production.
When heel flies start buzzing
around, they can bring a drop up
to25% inmilk production. Treat
ment now will destroy grubs and
help keep down the fly popula-
ton of next year.
The best method of control is with
a wash, made of IL ounces of derris
powder which contains SO rotenone
and two ounces of soap powder in a
gallon of water. This should treat IL
to 16 cows and the cost won't be
more than three cents per COW. Rub
the wash into the cows back with
stiff brush.

U7e've talked a lot about consul
Winners in this column especially
consumers of milk and milk prod
ucts. Like our wives they usually
get what they want and as dairy
men it's up to us to give it to them
if we are to get the most out of our
efforts at milk production.
One of the most important things
I've observed about consumers of
dairy products is that they want
dairy products the year around. They
don't stop buying cheese and milk
and ice cream when the cow goes dry
or when production drops.
That means that the dairy
industry has serious problem
during the flush in the spring and
again during the latter part of
the year when milk flow is at low
,ebb. With this seasonal feast or
famine each one of us should ask
ourselves, ''How can / help
smooth out the peaks and valleys
i'm milk productions"
There are several answers to that
question. First let's breed all open
heifers that are old enough NOW 50
that they will freshen next fall.
Next we can arrange a pattern Of
breedmgdates forthe estof our COWS
that will work them toward more
notwithstanding throughout the year.
Then we can build up our past
aares In midsummer and fall and
get the increased production
that comes with good grazing.
There are several advantages to
such a program. First it pays, as
shown by DHIA records from many
states. Second you will have chance
to get better calves because they can
be barn fed during those first few crit
ical weeks while their little dummies
are developing and getting ready TO
take careof that good spring grazing.

Of this, Ale was paid to it's
more than 100000 stock
holders and the remaining six
tenths of a cent on each dol
lar was retained in the bust
ness to assist in carrying on
and expanding its operations.
All money earned over this
4.7t was turned back to the
u. S. Government. G-E cost
saving methods had made
war goods forless money than
the Government expected.
