Virginia, second in the control program, has ; liMS.7 per cent of cattle compared1 with l!i.'i4. "These figures go to show that a1 Hang's control program does not i cut down the increase in eat tie j populutfon. Rather they prove that this program gets rid of nou-j call producing cows and makes ! more feed for the sound cows that , will breed." Dr. Lylle says. He recalls, too, thai a few years' ago. right lu the intensive period of the Rang'a disease control pro-' grain, Oregon cows increased their j milk yield. The Kocky Mountain I states, where little of the control j, work has been conducted, have the largest decrease in caf lie popula-j ' lion with 10 nl these slates aggre- ; i-Hting less than SO net cent of the'i Pt:t cattle population. I)r. Lvtle says his Rtatemenls are liased on figures from the American Cattle Producer, a publication which has not been friendly to the feder al Hang's program.

The MppHenllon for exemption Harvest Time! Is when you appreciate depend able, economical power. Watch your neighbor who has a "Cater pillar" tractor--and "SEE US HRST WE CAN SAVE YOU MONEY" DOUGLAS COUNTY Farm Bureau Co-op. Exch. Roseburg, Ore. DAILY DEVOTIONS DIL CHAS. A. EDWARDS The Children of Israel said, when they were In captivity in Babylon. "How can we sing the Lord's song in a strange laud." There is a story told that when the Children of Israel were in captivity they were called upon to sing their songs of Zion. How could they sing the lord's songs In a strunge land? How could they sing. ."The Lord is my shepherd." Sacred songs require a proper spiritual atti tude. "As tho hart panleth aft er the water hroolts go parteth my soul after Thee O God," was more suited to their ieel Ings. They had been uprooted from everything spiritual, and they longed for the courts of Ihe Lord. This particular Psalm 137, begins In fine harmony but ends in discord. The Kdomites their close kin had refused to help them when it was :nost needed. This act called forth from the Jews the spirit of hute, and they shouted back at them, happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy. chil dren against the stones, what a contrast between tho Old and New Testament. "I say unto you love your enemies." Jesus was ever emphasizing the large place of forgiveness in the Christian life. "Forgiving one another, even as God for Christ sake hath forgiven us." Amen. was made by the Oregon Feed Dealers association of Portland. The administration determined that plants engaged primarily in cleaning and preparing perennial and common ryegrass, Hungarian vetch, hairy vetch, chewing fescue, tall fescue, Austrian winter pens, bent grass and ladino clover de served classification us seasonal industry.
