A CORRECTIVE MESSAGE
FROM PAUL
The writer is Paul the Apostle.
While he wa son his second mis
sionary journey, the Judaizers went
to Galatia and told the Christians
there that Paul was not an Apostle
and that his message of salvation
by trusting Christ was not from
God but from men that it was
necessary to be circumcised and
keep the law of Moses in order to
be saved. When Paul reached An
tioch in Syria, he heard of these
charges, and this distructive propa
ganda against him and his work in
Galatia. So he wrote this letter
AD 54 or 55.
His purpose is to counteract the
baneful influence of those false
teachers; to defend himself as a
devinely appointed Apostle, to set
forth his elemental message right
standing wit God by trusting in
Christ, not by circumcision and
obedience to law, to show that this
teaching means finer moral living
and the bearing of fruit to the
spirit.
Galations 2: 14—21 < Williams
translation) “But when I saw that
they were not living up to the
truth of the good news, I said to
Cephas, and that before them all,
if you are living like a heathen
and not like a Jew, although you
are a Jew yourself, why do you
try to make the heathen live like
a Jew?
We ourselves are Jews by birth
and not heathen sinners and yet,
because we know that a man does
not come unto right standing with
God by doing what the law com
mands, but by simple trust in
Christ, we too have trusted in
Christ Jesus in order to come into
right standing with God by simple
trust in Christ and not by doing
what the law commands because
by doing what the law commands
no man can come unto righ stand
ing with God.
Now if in our efforts to come in
to right standing with God through
union with Christ, we have proved
ourselves to be sinners like the
heaten themselves, does that make
Christ a party to our sin? Of
course not. For if I try to build
again what I tore down, I really
prove myself to be a wrongdoer.
For through the law I myself have
become dead to the law so that I
may live for God. I have been
crucified with Christ, and I myself
no longer live but Christ is living
in me; the life I now live as a
mortal man I live by faith in the
Son of God who loved me and
gave Himself for me.
I never can nullify the unmerited
favor of God. For if right standing
with God could come through law
then Christ died for nothing”
Gal. 3: 22. “But the scripture pic
tures all mankind as prisoners of
sin, so that the promised blessing
through faith in Chrit might be
given to those who have faith.”
All the way through history there
have been false teachers—let us
earnestly search for the eternal
truths as revealed in Christ.

WORLD’S FIRST SOIL
CONSERVATION STAMP
SOIL CONSERVATION
The Upper Chattahoochee River
Soil Conservation District is one of
more than 2,800 such districts thru
out the country being honored by
the issuance of a commemorative
soil conservation stamp by the
Post Office Department, according
to J. L. Holbrook, District Super
visor.
“The stamp will be issued Aug
ust 26th at Rapid City, South Da
kota, at the annual meeting of the
Soil Conservation Society of Ameri
ca and will go on sale at local post
offices the following day”, Mr.
Holbrook said. The stamp, in three
colors, depicts a modern conserva
tion farm and is of 4-cent denomi
nation.
The Upper Chattahoochee Fiver
Soil Conservation District was or
ganized by local farmers in early
1938. The District now has a total
of 5,627 District Cooperators of
whom 4.647 have basic farm plans.
The District is governed by a
board consisting of Robert M.
Moore, Lumpkin County, Otis L.
Cato and Dudolph Clark, Hall
Countv, J. L. Holbrook and How
ard M. Holland, Forsyth County,
Ben Overstreet, Dawson County,
Fred Stovall, White County, and
Tames E. Blair, Habersham County.
Technical assistance is provided by
the Soil Conservation Service and
James T Coots is in charge of the
work in Forsyth County.
In the two decades of its exist
ence the Upper Chattahoochee Riv
er Soil Conservation District has
expanded from a groing, uncertain
beginning to a confident and sue
cessful present. Nearly 75 per cent
of the operating units within the
District are cooperating with the
Supervisors. Approximately 60 per
cent of all agricultural land is
included in basic farm plans.
‘The soil conservation stamp”,
Holbrook said, “is a salute to our
own District and other such dis
tricts across the country”.

Anew and revised edition on
marketing forest products has been
put out by foresters of the Agri
cultural Extension Service, Univer
sity of Georgia. The pamphlet is
entitled, “Tips on Timber Sales”,
and is a revision of Circular 34S
entitled, Selling Timber Wisely”.
This pamphlet is available at
any county agent's office and is
filled with valuable information
for anyone desiring to sell pulp
wood or sawtimber. The article
gives basic information on what to
consider in making a timber sale,
! where tto get assistance or advise,
'and how to measure saw logs or
stacks or oulpwood.
It is*a short article that can be
read in only a few minutes of
time; yet it can mean the differ
ence between a good sale or a poor
I timber sale.
Other points of interest to pros
I pective sellers is the section on
| sales agreement or contract with
buyer, the log rule to use, the de
| finition of a board foot, a cord of
I pulpwood, or a unit of pulpwood,
a table on the Scribner Scale and
on comparative stumpage values
for pulpwood and sawtimber.
| The value of this information
can be measured by the increase
in value of the forest product after
reading this pamphlet.
| Quoting from the pamphlet ‘Tips
on Timber Sales”, “You don’t make
money growing trees; you make
, money selling trees”.

Fattening Figs In
Coonfinenient
In recent ears, interest in grow
ing pigs in pens with concrete
floors has increased tremendously
in Georgia. Recently, research was
undertaken at the Georgia Coastal
Plain Experment Station, Tifton, to
compare the economy of growing
pigs in concrete floored pens with
growing them in pasture plots. The
comparison r/as done from the
standpoint of performance
of pigs and lobor requirements.
For this study 520 pigs were
used, 260 were grown in concrete
floored pens and 260 in small pas
ture plots.
The investigators found good
rates of gain were made by pigs
on both concrete pens and small
pasture lots. However, the pigs on
pasture gained significantly faster
than did those on concrete.
There was essentailly no differ
ence in average amount of feed
required to produce 100 pounds of
gain between the two groups of
pigs.
Carcass data obtained from 72
of the pigs weighing between 200
to 230 pounds indicated that those
grown on concrete floored pens
had a slihtly higher dressing per
centage than comparable pigs in
pasture lots. However, there were
|no significant differences in car
cass length, area or loin eye mils
[cle, and thickness of backfat be
tween groups.
Time required to feed both
groups of pigs was about the same
since both were located nearly
equal distances from the feed bam
Also, there was on significant
difference in the incidence of inter
nal parasitism between pigs grown
in concrete floored pens and those
grown on pasture plots.
Costs not common to both meth
ods were slightly greater for the
concrete floored pens. These costs
were $356 for growing three groups
of pigs in concrete floored pens
and $297.50 for three groups in
pasture plots.

“Water Safety”
Visitation is steadily increasing
on Lake Sidney Lanier during the
year 1959. The total visitation for
the first six months of 1959 on
Lake Lanier was 1,895.000 persons.
Therefore, you can see that the
visitation for the year 1959 should
reach a visitation of 3 to 5 million.
Due to the large increase in
visitation, every safety precaution
should be taken in order to make
Lake Lanier the most enjoyable
recreational spot in Georgia. Boat
ing, fishing, swimming and skiing
have greatly increased throughout
the reservoir. Listed below are a
number of the Corps of Engineers'
regulations regarding safety of th‘>
various activities which should be
complied with to the fullest extent
“1. Swimming and bathing are
not permitted in regular boat chan
nels, nor more than 150 feet from
short, nor within 100 feet of launch
ing ramps or boat dock areaas.
Swimming activities should be con
fined to designated and supervised
swimming beach areas, or in other
areas under the direct supervision
of qualified life guards.
2. No motor-driven boat shall be
operated with a buoyed swim
ming area.
3. No motor-driven boat shall be
operated at a speed greater than
six (6) miles an hour when in
harbor or passing under bridges,
or within 100 feet of short, launch
ing ramp, odck, mooring area, oc

ground or swimming area.
4. Every boat shall be provided
with an efficient life preserver for
each occupant. No boat shall be
operated at night without display
of one white light visible around
the horizon.
5. Skiing shall not be permitted
within the close proximity of con
