Jesus Beginning
Lesson for January IS, 1868

Jesus of Nazareth always had
grumblers or complainers in his
audience. They could always
find fault - though that was no
discredit to him. God on high
has many sef-appointed critics,
but he was never known to
change his way on their account.
One can easily imagine what
some of Jesus listeners might
have said when Jesus preached
his first sermons. Neither Mat
thew nor Mark gives us a whole
sermon. only a sketch Of his gen
eral line. The reader who will
compare Matthew 80 with Matt.
All can guess what the I'M
friendly listener might say:
There's nothing new here, I've
heard this before" Word 0 +
word, the report of what John
preached is just what Jesus
preached. The Master added
something, but 1t did not change
the fact that " at first = what
Jesus preached was so much
like what John preached that
you might be tempted to call it
an echo.

WeII-Fed Cow
Needs Concentrates

Dairymen are fooling themsel-
yes when they grind hay or forage
of any kind and add 1t to their con-
centrate mix! They are fooled In
several ways, says county Agent
VIM. H. Henderson.
Net energy is severely lowered
In the concentrate mix. This
ShortchangeS the COW In her total
net energy intake. This Is the
factor most likely to limit milk
production.
Concentrates are necessary
for the well-fed COW because they
are high In net energy and make
1t possible for the COW to meet
her net energy needs. There are
many cows, however, still short
of net energy because most dairy
men do not feed enough concen-
trateS.
The butterfat test may be re-
duced when ground hay makes up
most of the forage. The hay In
a concentrate mix does the same
thing. This is important for but
terfat production, says Hender-
son. If too much fiber is supplied
in relation to net energy, milk
production will be below the level
of the cows ability.
The third reason dairymen
should not grind hay or forage
and add 1t to concentrates is
that the cost of grinding hay is
not juStifiedl The owls equipped
to handle hay. Some increase In
consumption of poor quality for
age may result from grinding.
However, If this is done at the
expense Of higher net energy in
take, the COW responds with low
er production.
Poor quality forage should not
be fed to dairy cows or growing
dairy heifers, except In an emer-
gency. Keep 1t from other live
stock In which net energy intake
levels are not as critical. When
hay prices are extremely high,
local net energy may be supplied
cheaper from grains than from
hay. Compare your local prices,
Henderson advises.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Feb. 5.
Americas present space pol
icy Is '.laudable," but the Ma
ton should be prepared to
abandon it. a top military space
expert said today.
Maj. Gen. Osmond j. Ritland
told a conference of doctors
at Brooks Air Force Base near
here that, If the present policy
does not succeed, "the military
must have developed capabili-
ties to operate effectively in
this (space) environment should
1t become necessary"
Gen. Ritland, deputy to Air
Force systems commander Ber-
nard A. Schriever, defined the
national space policy as striv-
ing Ito keep the worlds rival
ries out of space"
The preamble OF the Space
Act of 1858 dedicates space ac-
tivities to peaceful purposes
for the benefit of all mankind, "
he pointed out.
The Air Force general pre-
dicted a possible need for "a
command, control and COM
munication center located in
space" and systems to con-
troll and defend sectors of space
vital to national interests" He
did not go into detail about
how, when or under what cir
cumstances these might be de-
veloped.

ceived a participating role in
the hitherto purely civilian
Gemini two-man space flight
program. At present, Gen. Rit-
land, as military liaison officer
with the space agency, is the
