Where We
From
The Form Show!
Improve
The 4flth Annual Pennsylvania
Farm Show is now history. How could
it have been a better show? That was
a question posed by Leland Bull, Penn
sylvania Secretary of Agriculture in
his brief remarks to the members of the
Pennsylvania Poultry Federation last
Wednesday night on the occasion of
their annual banquet.
We have given some thought to
that question and ask that those of
you who attended this year’s Farm
Show do likewise. The only place that
we felt improvement was in order was
in the ventilation of the large arena.
The fans there seemed to be only half
heartedly doing their jobs, and the air
seemed unnecessarily laden with animal
aromas and dust. Perhaps that is like

cess as well as foi the main'
tenance of personal and po
litical freedom
Taking an example fiom the
business world, he desciibed
how freedom of enterpiise has
stimulated productivity and ef
ficiency and encouiaged crea
tivity and ingenuity He drew
on his own experiences in re
search to demonstiate how
modem science and technolo
gy, spurred on by competi
tion in the maiketplace, are
producing new materials that
are making immense contri
butions to the economy and
standard of living Much of
this progress he attributes to
competition and to the free
dom of the customers to se
lect those products which best
satisfy their needs and desires
Businesses no less than in
dividuals, must practice self
reliance, according to Dr.
Seidel “Any company that
fails to plow back earnings
heavily in order to keep its
equipment in good repair . . .
is unfair to its employees and
stockholdeis,” he declared
He explained that techno
logical changes will bring
painful local dislocations, but
that increased efficiency leads
to more and better jobs. “I
suppose that many wagon
builders, blacksmiths, and sta
blemen suffered hardships
when they lost their jobs to
mechanics and filling station
opeiatois Today, however,
large numbeis of people are
building new highways and re
pairing old roads, lefining
petroleum and selling gaso
line and oil, making tires,
paint, and plastics to serve
the millions of cais we pos
sess and enjoy ”
“J conclude,” he said, “that
technological advances do
lead to more and better jobs
in the long run ”
“Skip” Cassel, Witmoyer

the city feller’s comment when he ac
companied his country cousin to the
cow barn and expressed surprise that
it didn’t smell like a rose garden. How
ever, many things that we lake for
granted do not necessarily have to be.
Even the sweet smell of roses can be
heightened by good ventilation.
But the Secretary is honestly look
ing for ways in which he can improve
the impression that the Farm Show
makes on the many city people that
visit there annually. If you have any
ideas on this subject please direct them
to Secretary Bull, or to us if you pre
fer; we’ll gladly see that they reach
the Secretary. The result may well'be
a better Farm Show, and that will be
appreciated by more than half a million
of your fellow Pennsylvanians.

lesson for January 17, 1965
Background Scripture: Matthew 4*12
throuch 8-34. „ .
Dotiion&l neodlnv* Mutlhew s'.l*X3»
As Matthew tells the story,
Jesus and his older cousin
John were not only both preach*
ers; a summary of their preach*
ing is expressed in the same
words for both. Repent! for the
Kingdom of heaven is near.”
?holars and
mts have puz*

irt sentence,
tat does “re
nt” mean?
ly the demand
r repentance
cause the
igdom is near?
at is the King
dom of heaven? Is it heaven, or
in heaven, or is it a past of this
earth? We cannot answer all
these questions in a short space.
Consider only one question,
about the Kingdom of God. What
is it and how does it draw near?
We offer a simple definition: The
Kingdom of God (or of heaven;
the words are used interchang
eably in the New Testament! is
not a place; it is a state of things
in which God’s will is the
supreme law.
Well, some one will say, isn’t
God’s will supreme everywhere
and always? And if it is, how
can the Kingdom be more in one
place or at one time than
another? How can such a King
dom “draw near?” The answer,
of course, is that God’s will is
always supreme, hut only when it
is acknowledged and obeyed
can we say the Kingdom is fully
come. But this will perhaps be
clearer if we look at three points
which come out in the back
ground chapters.
The kingdom, spoken
Now anybody who has any
knowledge of God knows that
pious' good words, even true
words, do not make a good man
and do not make the Kingdom
of God. Not in talk but in act is
religion best shown and tested.
All the same, Jesus and John
and a host of followers, have
found it necessary to talk a great
deal about the Kingdom. Man is
a thinking animal, and we have
to think with words. One of the
last commands Jesus gave was
“Teach . . The Christian re
ligion would have evaporated off

To Care For Heifer Calve*
Dairy heifers that are being raised for
replacements should get plenty of good care
at all times of the year. In some cases this
type of livestock are neglected during the
winter months. In the first place, we suggest
that the horns be stopped or removed from
the heifers at an early age; there is little
place for horns in modern dairying; secondly,
they should be vaccinated for resistance
against brucellosis; and finally, check their
droppings for stomach worms; the internal
parasites are a problem on many farms and
need attention.
To Tag Ewes
MAX SMITH Good shepherds will remove the wool
and manure locks from the rear quarters of their ewes several
weeks before lambing time; also trim the long wool from
around the udder m order to give the new-born, lamb a chance
to nurse more safely; this may prevent the lamb, from con
suming small bits of wool near the udder and teats. Attention
of this nature before lambing time will increase net profits.
To Keep Fertilizer Dry
Some farmers have accepted Animal comfort is very im-*
delivery of part of their spring portant in getting maximum,)
fertilizer needs. It is very im- efficient production and weight

the earth centuries ago if there
had been a conspiracy of silence
to kill It. So we have the Sermon
on the Mount and all the other
teachings of Jesus which have
been handed down to us. How
we wish there were more!
The kingdom lived
A religion which Is without
words and a religion which is all
words, arc equally bad. This is
where the command Repent!
comes in. It is clear that the
people of Galilee thought of the
Kingdom mostly as a “good time
coming.” They thought of what
they could get out of it rather
than of what they could put into
it. They expected God to blot out
and forever banish all evil in ,
his glorious Kingdom. What both
John and Jesus insisted on was
that to enter the Kingdom—or
indeed even to see it—people
must change their whole way of
life. The word Repent in the
Greek means to change one’s
mind; but not in the trivial sense
as when we speak of a woman’s
privilege of changing her mind.
The word goes deep; it means to
change one’s whole way of look*
ing at things. It means making
the will of God supreme, really
supreme, for you. It means the
earnest search, at all turns of
life’s road, to know what the will
of God is in this situation. This
kind of "repentance” will not
end with a quick “I’m sorry.”
It works out into God-centered
living. In Matthew’s story, the
first thing Jesus does after
preaching the sermon on the
mount is not to go to work on a
better sermon but to go around
helping people. That's the King*
dom lived.
