Cattle Increase in

The Idea that a Bang's disease

work, is second in increase with;
I Hi per cent against 11.14. 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

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.
