An Ever Deepening Urgency

The Christmas season is past and the new year before us. And this is a g<K>d time to' reflect on the ultimate fact that / the world must find its salvation in the development, not of weapons, but in man’s ability to grow in understanding and to value his fellow man. In this rapidly shifting modem world, the best guide we have can still be found in the Christian concept as expressed by Jesus Christ ’when He was asked by a questioner to name the great commandment of the law He taught. As Matthew 22:37-39' fells us: “Jesus said unto him. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God. with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and With all thy mind. ‘This is the first and great commandment. ° “And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.” As we begin this new year, it is well to reflect that these words challenge each of us to seek within ourselves the understanding to broaden our concept of selfinterest until it embraces all mankind Barriers are before us as they have always been throughout the world’s hisv tory, but we face an ever deepening urgency to surmount them. The selfish, acquisitive and combative elements woven into human nature are the greatest barriers weface. To achieve, man must be “ competitive; but to survive in this new and small world he must temper this competitive spirit with reason and the long . view of belonging to one family with the common need to live together on one planet.

SHEEP PRODUCERS are invited to attend the meeting on lamb production on Jan. 9 at 1:30 p. m. in the new Shrine building on the fairground*. HctAk Mayo, veteran anima^ science man from Purdue, will ba the discussion leader. THE SECOND MEETING of the new Better Farming-Better .living group is scheduled for Jan. 7 on the fairgrounds. This is a reschedule of the date that was frozen out a week or so ago. The *. schedule will include developing the croping system, family budgets, and developing the livestock program. FARM ACCOUNT BOOKS are now available at the county extension office. The two types, same te in years past, are available. The yellow covered Indiana Farm Account Book is best for analysis purposes and also has space for landlord and tenant entries. The newer Indiana Farm Record is popular for tax purposes as the entries appear in the same order as on the 1040 F. The 1964 Income Tax Guide is also in. These can be .ery helpful in tax management planning as well as in filing tax reports. Copies win be available at banks throughout the county. The new Indian* Ad justed Gross income tax need not be too much bother for farmers if they will plan to do their federal tax reporta first Then the same set of figures can be transferred over to the new tax form without duplicating the work. Farmers will pay on the old gms for their income for the first six months. They will then pay one percent on their adjusted income far the full year. At first glance this looks wrong but they win pay for half the rate for a full year's income rather than the fun rate for a half year’s income. There may be some advantage in this for some people. There will be the definite advantage of being able to use the same income figure as determined on the federal report SUPPLYING ADEQUATE protein, phosphorous end vitamin A ( taos major importance to wintering of beef cows expecting calves.

ing of the cow. Digestible protein, which the cow /requires .9 pounds of . a day. can be provided by supplementing *, low-protein roughages with about 5 pounds of legume hay or one pound of protein supplement a day. The scientist maintains that vitamin A is the only vitamin of major concern and can most easily be’ provided by using green hay or silage. Five pounds of green hay a day should take care of both the vithmm and digestible protein needs of a pregnant beef cow. Otherwise, it may be well to supplement the ration with vitamin A in the form of dehydrated alfalfa meal or pellets, about one-half pound a day. Phosphorus is often deficient in grass hay and silage and can be supplied in the form of steamed bonemeal or dicalcium phosphate. These can be provided in a foeechoice mineral mixture of two parts steamed bonemeal or dicalcium phosphate to one part iodized salt plus loose salt another box. ——————" Non-Farm Employment Above November 1962 Later esfimutes of Indiana's nonfarm employment at mid-Nov-ember showed a 1,514,500 total, 8,900 under the October figure but almost 34,000 above the November 1962 total. Lewis F. Nicolini, director of the Indiana Employment Security Division, said the decrease last month included a 1,300 reduction in workers at one auto plant as well as seasonal cut-backs in other Industries, particularly const in action and canning. Auto industry employment as a whole was off 2 per cent because of the release of workers at the one plant Average hours were down by one-half hour because the same plant had cut to a 30-hour week. The industry’s overtime hours and earnings showed an increase over October. Steel was the only primary metals industry to show any loss in employment last month. Average hours in the industry decreased somewhat but earnings were up "because of incentive pay. Indiana’s''seasonally .adjusted unemployment rate rose from 33 per cent in October to 4 per cent last month. Mr. Nicolini said this rate, while at tee highest point since July. remained Wtfl below the natioMi Iwel of 5.9 per cent, t ,

The miracles of science and technical advances have made all the ‘nations of the Earth neighbors. This in itself has brought us to a point never before seen in history when great powers must compete with restraint because they know the destruction of the world hangs in the balance. At the root of man’s thinking, by whatever name it may be called, there must reside the Christian concept of the value of single human life. As a foundation for this, people of the backward areas of the World must be helped in their search for a better way of life and a share in the material rewards which can be achieved in this twentieth century. For if one is to value life, one find it worth living. In beginning to write on the’ clean slate of the new year, we could not find a better guide post than the Lord’s expression of the basic Christian commandment. If we are concerned with better understanding and using the power in His teachings, we will meet the trials that confuse our path to a better future. We have been given time to learn the illusive art of living in peace with each other — let us .use it well. » . . - Soon men will ride the trusting fire of rockets far beyond our world. Looking back on Earth in the darkness of space; perhaps they will be the first to find the way of the Lord’s words and envision a future wherein we may all know as neighbors and truly love the whole of mankind.

Indiana Farm j Prices Decline Declining hog, cattle and corn prices forced Indiana farm prices down two per cent from mid-Oc-tober to mid-November, report Purdue university agriculturial economists and state-federal agricultural statisticians. Hoosier farm purchasing power sagged three per cent during the period. This drop was the fourth consecutive period in which prices and purchasing power declined. The mid-September to mid-Octob-er price drop also was two per cent. However, prices received by U. S. farmer and their purchasing power and prices paid for production items remained unchanged from mid-October to mid-Novem-ber. Indian* livestock prices dropped two per cent, but grain prices remained unchanged. Corn led the price drop, falling eight per cent; hog prices slipped five per cent and cattle prices four per cent, Major commodity prices increasing: Soybeans, five per cent; wheat, four per cent; broilers, seven per cent; apples, four per cent; baled hay, three per cent, and potatoes, 22 per cent. The hog-corn feed ratio remained unchanged. Product-feed ratios increasing: Whole milk-feed, U per cent; butterfat-feed, three per cent; turkey-feed, three per cent, and broiler-feed, seven per cent. UNEMPLOYMENT CLAIMS SAME AS 1962 Unemployment insurance claims rose to 41.540 last week ftote 38,295 the week before but the total i still remained below the 45,000 level for the same Week a year ago. Lewis F. NtafiUni. dtobrtor of the Indiana EteptoyTnent Security ' Division, said the Increase was the result at the continuing layoffs in outddCNMctivities, holiday closings in sever® industrial plants in the 1 stated of about * 1.060 auto workers te the South 1 Rtewtem* , J SAVINGS BONDS SALES . DOWN FROM LAST YEAR The' chairman of the Kosciusko county U. S. Savings Bonds committee. has received a report revealing that the county’s Savings Bonds sales for November were >56,158 compared with 567,213 for the corresponding period of last year. The state’s sales for November were 510,739,413. Last November's sales were 19,689,134 which gives an increase of 10.8 per cent over last year. Fifty-six of the state's ninetytwo counties reported sales gains for tin month when compared with sales of November 1962.

Please don’t tell me that I - should leave him until he changes because I would be more miserable without him. Is there anything I can do to make him see how his ’bossiness’ bothers me. If I were to bring it up to him, it would only cause another argument I heard that love was a two sided affair. “You give and take a little” . . . but in this case, it's a one sided affair. Tired of Being Bossed Dear Bossed: Where did you hear “You give and take a little"?

Soil And Water Conservation January is an opportune month to consider pine tree planting needs for next spring. The four primary reasons for planting pine trees are —■ windbreaks. Christmas tree production, erosion control and timber production. First, let’s consider windbreaks. The windbreaks referred to here are mainly farmstead windbreaks. Windbreaks are needed in the more nearly level areas of the county and in other parts of the county where buildings and livestock are exposed to a clear sweep of wind. They normally are planted along the west and across the north side of a farmstead and are located from one hundred to one hundred fifty feet from the area being protected. The trees are planted on a 12 foot spacing and three or four rows are planted with the trees staggered in the rows. White pine is the recommended for windbreaks and occasionally Norway Spruce are used. On a 12 foot by 12 foot spacing, 302 trees per acre would be needed. For Christmas tree production the Scotch pine is most widely used. Red pine, and White pine are used occasionally. These trees are normally planted on a six foot by six foot spacing and about 1100 trees are needed to plant one acre. Planting of pines is usually done by hand except when large numbers of trees are planted. There are a few tree planters available in the county, and with a planter, about 10,000 trees can be set out in a day, j w here as by hand one has to hustle to set out a thousand. For Christmas tree production spray-; ing for insects and trimming for j proper shape is necessary in order. to produce a high quality tree. i For erosion control we recom-i mend the jugged Jack pine. Jacks | will grow under a wide range of conditions and do exceptionally well on badly eroded soils. The thickness of planting is determined by the cover desired but usually a six foot by six foot planting is made. For timber production in this county again we recommend White pine. The spacing ter this type planting is six foot sy six foot. They are a relatively fast grower and will make fence poets, utility poles and piling if the wood is chemically treated. Pine tree seedlings and transplants are available from our State nurseries and from private nurseries. The cost, depending cm kind and size will vary from two dollars to four dollars per hundred plus shipping costs. Order blanks are available at the County Extension office and at the Soil and Water Conservation District office. Plan now to set out some pine trees next spring. — Robert Martin (Co. Soil Conservation Agent) It Pays To Advertise i
