Figs 68 ' * M “Worth its weight in plgs.”l That’s what many hog men! say about the value of far-1 rowing crates. The idea comes from Purina’s Research Farm, Gray Summit Mo. The crate is 2% x 7% feet, with 2x4 framing and Ix 6 siding. Important point is the 10 inches between the floor and the first sideboard. This space serves as a guard rail and gives room to work with the tow. Pigs move out under heat lamps hung right outside the crate. If you use native or scrap lumber, this crate should not cost much more than 85.00. Don’t Feed Worms; Leave Them On Range Even though you wormed your pullets at 10-12 weeks, it’s smart to worm them before they go into the laying house at about 20 weeks. Chek-R-Ton removes large roundworms, also stimulates appetities and peps up birds. Laboratory tests show it is highly efficient as a wormer. Shockless and easy on birds. Saves labor, too. Let us help you worm your flock. You can now get Steer Fatena with Stilbestrol for even Better Results! Purina’s Steer Feeding Program is designed to help you get more from the things you raise. Steer Fatena stimulates bacterial activity in the rumen . . . helps make your grain and roughage go farther. Cattle feeders you know have had good results with Steer Fatena. Next time you are in town drop in for a visit and we’ll tell you who they are . . . give you details about the Purina Steer Feeding Program, too.

New Purina Liquid |Hog Warner- ■ Purina has just developed a ■new revolutionary method of |rworming hogs in the drinking water. It is by far the most effective and easiest method of worming yet found. Stop in today and ask for information. Time To Condition And Train Hunting Dogs Clyde Morton, nine-time winner of the National Championship Trials, says, “both men and dogs need preseason workouts." "As hunting season approaches both need training to get into condition and to sharpen their hunting skills. That’s why I recommend man and dog train together, starting 6 weeks before the season. It never should start less than 4 weeks before opening day.” Your dog will go for Purina Dog Chow available in Checkers and Kibbled Meal. It’s built to meet dogs' nutritional needs. Tested on thousands of dogs at the ’Purina Research Kennels and proved by thousands of satisfied owners of pet, hunting and farm dogs. Castrate Boar Pigs Early At the Purina Research Farm pigs castrated the sth day suffer less shock and wounds heal more quickly than when done later. Use Purina Wound Protector after castrating and for all cuts and open sores. For each customer who purchases 1 ton or more of hog feed we have a free pig castrator which regularly sells for 34.95. Stop in to get yours now. Prove You Can Get More Milk Wiith The 30-Day Bulky-Las Test We know what Bulky-Las will do to cow condition and production. And, we want you to know. That’s why we are making this more milk and more condition offer. Local dairymen are Invited to pick several cows or the entire herd for test. We tape the cows and weigh the milk. You add one-half gallon of Bulky-Las per feeding to your present ration. In 30 days we re-weigh the cows and weigh the milk. You see the results ... and extra profit . . . from feeding this fine body-building Chow. We think you’ll agree a test like this shows real faith in our product. Ask about it.

kHE J [gMllFr btaraMional Umiora Sunday fchod Uasem / Baekfraand Sarletarat Luke 1:1-40. Da rational Raadlng: John 1:1-14. B. 0. and A. D. Lesson for October 8, 1955 A MAKE-BELIEVE story can be just as entertaining as a true one, and more so. The tale of Little Red Riding Hood is more interesting than some of the items in this week’s paper. Furthermore,. a make-believe story can

sometimes get a truth across to people just as well as a true story does. For example, from Little Red Riding Hood we may learn not to trust strangers — they may turn out to be wolves in Grand-

mother’s clothing. Many a fable and fairy-tale has fixed in children's minds many a useful truth. Nevertheless, the make - believe story sometimes only conveys falsehood. If I told you that my grandfather was the Most Wanted Man by the police of six states, that he came to his death in a gun battle with the sheriff in which he shot three deputies before they finally got him, it would be a much more interesting tale than the true one, of a simple law-abiding Christian dying in his bed of a very ordinary disease. But it would give a totally wrong impression, it would be a iie for which there would be no excuse. lesus and Amida Now, believe it or not, there are today and there have often been in the past, those who claim that it makes no difference whether the Christian gospels are fact or fairy-tale, no difference whether Jesus was a historical character like Caesar or a made-up onelike Cinderella. The Christian church has always resisted such a notion as this. For the gospel story aims to tell us something true about God, something true about man; and if the gospel story is not true, then what it says about man and God is not true either. Compare the Buddhist story of Amida. The story of Amida is very much like the story of Christ; it is the tale of a god, or at least a god-like superior being, who came to live ice and sacrifice. Songs are sung about him, — "Amida loves me, this I know, for the (Buddhist) Scriptures tell me so.” Temples are erected to him. But when you inquire. When and where did this Amida Buddha live? you discover that no one claims he ever lived anywhere. He is a great big official fairy-tale. A temple to him is like a temple>to Cinderella’s fairy god-mother. Amida was brave, self-sacrificing, loving, godlike — only, he never existed! World B. C. For centuries, historians have counted time before and after Christ. All dates are either B. C. —Before Christ, or A. D.—Anno Domini, "in the Year of our Lord." B. C. does not mean Before Civilization or Before Culture or Before Columbus but Before Christ What makes the world B. C. different from the world A. D. is Christ. The world B. C. was a world in which the “best" people supposed i that without slavery you could I not have civilization; a world in which a man could be required legally to have only one wife at a time, but in which it would have been thought ridiculous to expect him to be faithful to that one wife; a world in which unwanted babies (and tragically numerous they were) were simply left out oi doors to die, unless men in the slavery business cared to pick them up to be sold later on; a world in which social responsibility as we know it was unknown, a world in which men who held government posts were expected to get rich out of them. If you #ant tn see what the world B. C. was like, read Romans 1. Paul had been there. He knew. World A. D. Who knew, that first Christmas night, that the birth of that baby to those poor people from Nazareth was the turning point of the history of the world? God knew it; and men have found it out The world A. D. Is so different from the world C that even a stupid man, if he found himself carried back by a time-machine to B. C„ would pray to get back to A. D., to a world where life is sacred, where children are welcomed and cared for, where Christian homes are found, where service is a common ideal, a world where there are minions of true Christians. Such real changes in the real world were not made by a make-believe Jesus, only by a real one. Cast all your cares on God; that anchor holds. Jesus redeems and give direction for a life that lives through eternity.—Sockman.

So Much For So Few Rev. J. FL Meadows Only two-fifth of the population of the United States are members of a Christian church. Yet we read recently that these two-fifth — - Furnish four-fifths of cur college students; Three-fourths of our homeowners; Nine-tenths of all givers to charity; — And almost 90% of the outstanding leaders In public life. This is not sunwising, for whatever makes a man a good Christian makes him a good citizen and a good neighbor. Christ says of His followers: "Ye are the salt of the earth.’’ People who have found their place in heaven through faith in Christ will also find their place on earth—and will fill it conscientiously. Christian people are an asset to any community. Do you belong to the few who have done so much—or to the many who have done so little? We urge you to bo in the church of your choice and join hands with, those who are trying to make our nation a more Christian nation.
