brought into the panel when Rev.

that it was the Negro vote which
saved Louisiana for the Democrats

Negroes are not yet permitted as
delegates to the nominating con-

GET RIGHT WITH GOD, THE
CHURCH WILL BE IN YOUR
HEART.
God is going to send you a man
To turn up his spiritual light
Millions don't understand Gods
word
That goes for Black and White.
Christ set his Church up in all
true hearts
That did not believe in vain
He made them children of his
Father
And brothers and sisters in his
name.
Christ said in all of our getting
today
Get understanding its all right
He set up his church in every true
heart
Every race both black and white
No brick, stone or frame house
You can call the Church of Christ
He set up his Churches in all pure
hearts
To live a oneless life.
When you say you are on your
way to church
Have you ever been born again
Christ said that he would create in
you a new heart
And that is where his Church
began.
There is something we can learn
each day
About Jesus Christ and his Holy
way
He set up his church in all Christ
ians hearts 3
For US to love We one another and
never to part.
He said to Peter upon this rock
I'll build my Church
He didn't say a house of no kind
He said that he would create in
Won new heart
1t will keep you on the main line.
The house that man build for the
Church
Is for the Church to worship
therein
Every Christian heart has
Church in it
So why not we all begin.
Realize, that Christ Church is in
our hearts
And the house is to worship there
in
Let every child of God today
Prove it both women and men.

Soils and CROPS
Value of Leaf Feeding Dusts
Not Proven In State Trials
By ARTHUR F. SHAW


Just as man has increased his eff
cheney in farm operations, methods for
the control and eradication of peren-
NAL weeds have also improved.
Controlling perennial weeds by cult
walton is an ancient practice that has
been popularized with blade and shovel
type implements and the rubber-tired
tractor. The steps to follow in control
ling perennial weeds are summarized
as follows:
1. Blade or shovel-type implements
are preferred. A rod weeder may be
used following one or two previous OPP
erationS with the other tools.
2. Keep blades or shovels sharp at
all times. This helps TO assure cutting
off of all vertical roots.
8. Provide to inches of overlap Of
shovels or blade This prevents tough
roots from slipping by"
4. A depth of to 4 inches is suffi-
Gent for good job of control.
S. Adapt 21-day cultivation sched-
ule. This may have to be altered be-
cause of unfavorable growing condi-
tons, but above all, don't let the weeds
go longer than to Ia days before cut
ting the roots off following re-emer-
gence. For wild morning glory and
quackgrass, a shorter interval than 81
days is best. Don't allow these plants
to go longer than 6 to 10 days after
emergence.
6. The secret in control is starvation
of the root system. One season of culti-
walton may reduce stand of Canada
thistle or perennial sow considerably.
Two or more seasons is required for
leafy Spurge, whitetop, Russian KNAPP
weed and some of the other more per-
Sistent perennials.
z. In August, an alternative to cult
walton may be heavy application OF
2,4-D, one-half to one gallon per acre,
applied to the regrowth.
Follow Program
Once program of control is adopt
ed, it should be rigidly followed for the
best results. 1t doesn't pay to pamper
perennial weeds-they have their hands
in your pocket extracting hard-earned
cash every year.
If you have only small patch of a
few square rods in size of any one Of
the perennials gaining a foothold ON
your farm, soil sterilantS may perhaps
be your best investment. Sodium chlor-
ate applied at rate of pounds per
square rod is generally adequate for
blue lettuce, Canada thistle, poverty
weed, skeleton weed or perennial sow
thistle. Six to eight pounds per square
rod is required for leafy spurge or
quackgrass. Eight to 10 pounds per
square rod should be adequate for white
top and Russian knapweed.
Where "Atlacide" is used, the above
rates should be increased by at least
One-third. There are other soil sterilants
on the market such as ''Borascu" and
"polyborchlorate" which are equally
effective in eradication Just remember
that soil sterilants prohibit vegetative
growth for two or more years. These
materials do have definite place for
eradication of small patches of peren-

Soils and Crops

QuSCS IOr cOnCrOlllng WeeuS anu DIS
fertilizer for small grain crops?" Such
materials have been on the market in
Montana since 1851, and are being used
to limited extent today. The dusts
are combination of 2,4-D, a small per-
centage of nitrogen, phosphate and 9TH
er minor nutrient elements.
To determine the value, if any, that
leaf feeding duStS may possess in Mon
tana's agriculture, a study was initiated
in 1852 at the Agricultural Experiment
Station in Bozeman and the Central
Montana Branch Station at Moccasin.
Winter wheat, spring wheat, oats, bar
ley and flax were used as test crops.
Two years results indicate no advan-
tage gained by using the leaf feeding
materials.
2,4-D used alone as a spray was as
effective in increasing wheat yields as
were any of the combinations of leaf
feeding dusts. A normal rate of 2,4-D
resulted in more rapid and more eff
fective weed control job than the forth
fled 2,4-D dust materials.
1t should be pointed out, too, that a
number of farmers also cooperated
with experiment station workers in 1852
in checking the value of the materials.
In the majority of cases results were
consistent with those OF the stations.
Other Tests Similar
Similar results with leaf feeding dusts
are reported by experimental stations
in the Prairie Provinces of Canada. A
summary of their 1852 data shows that
in IL out of Is tests carried out with
wheat, yields were lower where the
dusts were applied than with the UNI
treated check plots.
New formulas are continuously COM
ing into the picture and they require
continued testing to determine their
feasibility. Results of all trials have
been somewhat erratic but, in the high
est percentage of the cases, the dusts
do not appear to have any advantage
at this time.
The idea of using combination herbi-
eide and fertilizer material is not new.
The materials are used to advantage in
certain areas-fruit growing or truck
gardening regions-where plant require
ments are very exacting for high pro-
ductivity and where definite soil nutri-
ent deficiencies occur.
In Montana, the control of annual
weeds WITH 2,4-D has been one of the
most beneficial factors in increasing
the states total production of small
grain. Commercial nitrate and phoS
plate fertilizers are also becoming
more widely used, mainly in the winter

to take inventory on the various functions
they perform and see which could be done
more economically by private industry.
There are many advantages in turning
over business operations to private indus

duce tax funds, which private business
would pay and would cut down the Gov

for taxes. Thus, il would work on the Gov
