Oct, 30 'cuu scientific healing power be real ized" (pase 187 of "Science and Health with Key lo the .Scriptures". J Experience has proven to the Christian Scientist the absolute nec essity of sole dependence upon God as the healing power. Outside of Christian Science, all syatuis of heal ing are baced more or less upon faith in 'natter or in the power of the human mind, while Christian Science relies wholly upon the divine Mind as l he healing factor. Any attempi therefore to combine (he purely spir itual method vviih oilier modes of healing ik a divided allegiance, and breaks the first commandment "Thotl nhall have no other gods be fore me." Treatment by other heal ing methods can no more be com bined with Christian Science treat mint than oil will mix with water mi nisi nuiiou wun so many minis lers, physicians and sociologists of differing beliefs and conflicting theories remind ine of the saying "Too many cooks spoil the broth.' Your article goes on to smy "When the doctors find patients who fail to respond to treatment for phys leal ailments, Ihey will collaborate Willi healers who will be given cnaiiee io practice llieir curalivi theories." This gives ihe Impression that much of the practice is to be ex perimentai. To the Christian Sclent isi, wno Knows liie divine power II all-SUfficlent, il seems strange lhal the prevailing practice in hospital and elsewhere is lo "try" all skirl oi omer treatments heiorc turning to spiritual means, the most reli able of all. in endeavoring to preserve and pracuce me unadulterated truth as Jesus taUghl and applied it, thi Christian Science church mainialin Simplicity in its church services by the reading of the Bible and correla live passages from Science and Health Without comment such si rmon being "undivorced from truth, uncontaminated by hitman hy potneses, ami divinely authorized" (0.

Ballard goes on to say: Then Morrow county too lists within iis border! most of the acreage of the proposed John Day project which, once a reality, will establish a Yak ima in Oregon because of the parti cularly favorable soil and climatic conditions. Here the long growing . ason, making possible Ihe produc tion of large yields of corn and alfal fa as well as tender fruits, is an ad vantage not in the cards for many of Oregon's irrigation possibilities and the district il is proposed to reclaim is not small either, covering :i22,000 acres of which 275,1)00 acres are in Morrow county. This project has been held up by litigation and sentiment now j is Somewhat averse to progressing with it because of its rather high cost. This attitude will doubtless wear away as better times dawn in the farming business and this district will add greatly to the wealth of Morrow county and Ihe state. Around the new and thriving towns of Irrigon and Boardman is an irrigated area Included in the western unit of the i 'mat ilia project.
