Faring Growing Psi'iid
Nearly a third of all turkeys
hrlohc-'i rr- lost during the growing
r'- .iod. This statement is LueeJ on
findings of Utah Agricultural col
lege survey.
Of considerable importance to a
control program is the fact that the
three diseases known to be the
greatest killers of poults—paraty
phoid infect : on, pullorum disease and
Infectious sinusitis, which may be
transmitted through the egg from
parent to the offspring—cause 51
per cent of the brooder loss.
If a grower starts with a healthy,
vigorous poult, the job of keeping
the bird healthy is relatively simple.
Thus the first problem for a pros-

pective turkey producer is to buy
poults from hatcheries that have a
reputation for producing healthy
poults. As it may be impossible for
a single grower to know the poult
source, cooperative effort may be
helpful in investigating the breeder
and hatcher.
Proper housing and proper use
of brooding equipment are essential
to health of the poults. Basis of
sanitary procedures is to prevent
healthy individuals from coming in
contact with the infectious agents
of disease. All vvcak-looking poults
should be kept separate from the
healthy fowls and strict sanitary
practices must to maintained during
the brooding period.
Early Spraying Rdvised
7or Black Chc.:ry Ephid
Sprays applied before the buds
break, say insect specialists, are
more consistent in controlling the
black cherry aphid than sprays
made after the buds are open.
Feeding of the black cherry aphid,
if present in large numbers, affects
the size and flavor of the fruit Also,
a secretion known as “honeydew”
produces a sticky and unattractive
appearance of the fruit, especially
if it is to be sold as fresh fruit. De
velopment of a sooty fungus in the
honeydew may contribute further
to the unsightly appearance of the
cherries. Sweet cherries are more
coirynonly infested than sour cher
ries.
Neglected Farm Forest
Termed Valuable Asset
The farm woodland is paying off.
That long neglected group of trees
that stands on the back “forty” and
which once was eyed with a resent
ful attitude because it occupied land
t.iat could far better be devoted to
grazing, now becomes a definite and
valuable asset.
It is one that cen be quickly con
verted into cash. To the owner has
come the realization that the farm
will produce something more than
grain, root crops, pasture or dairy
products. Trees also are a crop, and
a paying crop, even on the poorer
types of soil where intensive agricul
ture is an impossibility.

Prompt Action Required
To Relieve Cattle Bloat
Removal of the gases from the
rumen is the primary object in
treatment of bloat in cattle. If bloat
ing has just started, the animal
should be forcibly exercised and the
distended abdomen massaged or i
kneaded with the clenched fist to i
bring about belching of the gases
from the stomach. A wooden gag
ran be placed in, and across, the

DEVOTIONAL READING: 44:1 •
Esther's Zeal Foi Her People
Lesson for June 13, 1948
GEORGE MEREDITH has a line
that runs like this, “God’s rar
est blessing is, o.fter all, a good
woman." In this study of Esther,
you may wish to
think of her pri
marily as a cour
ageous woman
most people do, 1
guess. But back
of her courage was
a solid goodness,
else she would
never have been
able to say, “And
if I perish, I per
ish.”
One must read
the Book of Es-
Hr. Newton
ther, of course, to have any grasp
of this great story. It requires but
a few and every reader
will be richly rewarded. I have a
lawyer friend, a prodigious reader,
who tells me that once each month,
for the past 50 years, he has read
the Book of Esther.
\ QUEEN WHO WAS BRAVE
DANIEL, we agreed, was a brave
person; but not more brave
than‘Esther. There is a verse in
Hebrews 13:6 that serves admirably
to interpret this first stage of
Esther’s manifest courage, “The-
Lord is my helper.”
We go to the palace in Shushan,
where reigned Ahasuerus. His king
dom stretched from India even unto
Ethiopia. His queen. Vashti, refused
to come before him when he had
made a feast. Asa result of this
refusal, the king ordered young
maidens brought before him that he
might chose anew queen. There
was in the court a Jew, Mordecai,
who had been brought there from
Jerusalem. He had in his care the
daughter of his uncle, a beautiful
maiden, named Esther. Mordecai
saw here a great opportunity and
he brought her before the king. She
was chosen. This brief sketch ac
counts for her position.
A QUEEN WHO HELPED
HER PEOPLE
HAMAN, who was next to the king
in authority, discovering that
Mordecai was a Jew and was not
worshipping as Haman had com
manded, caused a decree to be is
sued which would put to death all
the Jews in the kingdom. Mordecai,
learning of this decree, sent word
secretly to Esther, urging her to in
tercede on behalf of her people to
the king.
Here is the heart of the story.
Space does not permit- a detailed
recital. It is sufficient to say that
Esther, though still in her early
twenties, managed this delicate sit
uation with such skill that the gal
lows which Haman had built for
Mordecai turned out to be the instru
ment of death for Haman and his
sons. Instead of the Jews being
slaughtered, those who had planned
the death of all the Jews lay dead.
ESTHER RISKED ALL AND
WON ALL
IF EVER there was a perfect il
lustration of staking one’s all on
one great moment, Esther provides
such illustration. “Who knoweth
whether thou art not, come to the
kingdom for such a time as this?”
said Mordecai as he bolstered her
nerve.
It is such a challenge as young
people may be facing today. Ob
viously, the moment now confront
ing us calls for great faith and great
•sacrifice if this world is to be saved
from utter destruction. It may be
that this situation calls for hitherto
unknown tactics And let us pray
God there is somewhere an Esther.
• * •
THE MESSAGE OF ESTHER
WHICH leads me to suggest that
racial hatred was never more
bitter than at this moment. Unless
the winds of God blow, unlqss some
mighty manifestation of divine inter
vention is granted, the world will
break up on the rocks of prejudice
and selfishness and ambition and all
the forms and fashions of sin.
"God moves in a mysterious way,
his wonders to perform.” Let us
pray that we may early witness
some mighty stroke of his mercy
and deliverance, ere the night let
down.

Terrifying as is the prospect of
atomic energy running wild in the
hands of a generation of men mor
ally and spiritually unprepared to
handle it, even more thrilling is the
prospect of a Divine Will subjecting
even such a diabolic thing as the
atomic bomb to discipline and con
trol.
