PRAYER
God has permitted science to
unlock the ultimate forces locked
in the atom, thirty million times
as powerful as dynamite. Now
scientists are frightened lest men
may use this awful power to
destroy the world. Prayer will
enable God to unlock in the Spir-
itual realm the only power that
can save the human race from
destroying itself. This is the one
and only great contribution most
Of us can make, and it Is enough.
Our contribution can be immense
beyond all imagination. It de-
ponds on only one thing-how
much time and heart and mind
and love and strength and pray
er we give to Gods world.

Good In The Devil

In every person and thing,
there's good,
And when you really look, you
should
Find it, unless you yourself are
blind;
Look hard enough and you'll
even find
Good traits in the Devil, the
chance is ample,
His perseverance, for example.

few DAYS you should give them

Don t forget, cows on early pas
ture always crave more salt. Be
sure to have salt available in the
pasture where they can have free
access to it. This should be in
addition to the salt that YOU
normally add to their grain.
The pasture season means YOU
will have to guard against bloat
and some successful dairymen be
lieve in keeping some hay before
the cows straight through the
pasture season to reduce the
chances for bloat on legume pas

Pasture offers the biggest ad-

ties say it takes an operation of
ESQ pigs or more a year to take
full advantage Of the efficiencies of
feeding on concrete. The operation
must be large enough to Justify the

Pasture may cut the protein sup
plement cost one third to one half,
reducing the total feed bill by 3
per cent to 10 per cent? but new
research raises the stion
whether pasture saves much feed
over feeding on concrete If dry lot
rations are properly fortified with
vitaminS. antibiotics, and minerals.
Fortifying rations costs several
dollars per ton OF feed.
Clean green ground is the best
and cheapest method OF disease
and parasite prevention and con
troll for most growers. Disease and
parasites can be controlled on con
crete as well as on pasture. but it
takes better feeding and manage
ment to do it. A serious disease
outbreak among hogs concentrated
in a small area can be disastrous.
BY feeding fortified rations, using
pressure water systems and steam

be effectively controlled in dly lot
