Curinjf, Storage and Marketing of
Tobacco
Some crops are easy to cure after
they reach maturity. This certainly
is not true of tobacco. No matter
how successful the handling of the
crop may have been up to the date
when it is placed in the curing barn,
the grotver will then find himself
confronted with the most difficult
and serious of all the problems he
has to solve. Even after he has cured
his tobacco unless he stores and
markets it carefully his operations
will likely result in loss rather than
gain. Tobacco will naturally de
teriorate rapidly after it has been
cured and stored. There were farm
ers in Georgia last year who had
beautiful samples when their barns
were cured out but who, through ne
glect after th e curing was finished,
had to sell this crop at from ten to
seventeen cents a pound. Some of
the factors which must be consider
ed in relation to the curing, storing
and marketing of tobacco have been
summarized and set forth in this
article. Mr. E. C. Westbrook, the
tobacco specialist of the Georgia
State College of Agriculture is re
sponsible for the data presented to
our readers relative to this impor
tant phase of handling the tobacco
crop.
The curing of tobacco involves
many complex changes in the leaf
which are not fully understood, but
some of the more important prin
c’ples of good curing are well estab
lished. Every tobacco grower should
acquaint himself as far as practic
able with the fundamental facts.
Curing ,is forcing the leaves to un
dergo a process of gradual starva
tion under proper Conditions. Any
thing 'which kills the leaf prema
turely, ■ such as bruising or breaking
in harvesting or very rapid drying,
will pfevht god curing.
In filling the barn it is best not
to Crowd the tobacco on th e sticks
nor to place the sticks too close on
the tier poles. For the best results
the sticks should not be placed
closer together than eight inches on
the tier poles with from 6 J to 75
leaves on the stick, depending on the
size of the tobacco. This allows for
plenty of ventilation which is neces
sary for the best curing. With this
spacing a 16-foot barn will hold
about 500 sticks of tobacco. As
soon as filled, the barn should be
thoroughly inspected to see that the
flues and furnaces are in good con
dition and that all drv leaves and
rubbish are removed from the in
side. This is to guard against dan
ger from fire. For a 16-foot barn,
place a thermometer near the cen
ter of the barn. For a larger barn it
is better to use two thermometers,
one on each, side of the barn. It
it a good idea to have an extra
thermometer as one may be broken
during the curing process.
The barn may now be closed and
fire started in the furnaces. The
first step in curing is to yellow the
leaf properly. Tobacco yellows best
in the first stages when the tem
perature of the barn ranges from 90
to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The
temperature should be raised to, and
kept betwen 90 and 100 degrees until
th e tobacco is beginning to color a
lemon yellow. This will take from
36 to 48 hours under average condi
tions.
In order to obtain the best re
sults in yellowing, the barn should
be tight at first, so that in the earlier
stages of yellowing the desired tem
perature may be obtained without
exhausting moisture too rapidly. As
the yellowing progresses it is neces
sary for the moisture to be removed
gradually at tirst and later more
rapidly. Moisture should never be al
lowed to collect on the leaves or the
sides of the barn, as it will cause the
tobacco to be mottie'd. The moisture
can be controlled by regulating the
ventilation. During the last few
hours of yellowing the temperature
should be raised to from 110 to 120
degrees. Good results are obtained
by beginning to raise the tempera
ture when the tobacco is a pea-green
color. Never allow the temperature
to drop, for if this happens, dry
ing will be retarded and the tobacco
will cure dark.
When the yellowing of the leaf is
practically completed, move up the
temperature fairly rapidly, at the
rate of about 3' degrees per hour
until 135 to 140 degrees is reached.
Hold it at that point until the leaf is
entirely dry, especially on the bot
tom tier poles. It is not safe to
raise the. temperature above 140 de
grees until the leaf is thoroughly
dry, as the leaf is killed too rapidly,
and there is danger of causing the
tobacco to be dark. If the tempera
ture is raised to 135 degrees too
slowly the tobacco is likely to mottle.
Therefore, the condition of the to-
bacco should be watched as closely
I as the thermometer.
I .When the leaves are dry, raise the
temperature 4 to 5 degrees an hour
until 170 or 175 degrees is reached.
Keep this temperature until the
stems are thoroughly dry, and there
are no “swell” stems. The corners
of the barn are usually the last to
cure. When all of the stems are dry
the fire may be allowed to go out.
Tobacco put in the barn on Monday
is usually cured out by Friday night.
It must be remembered that these
general, since no two plants
of tobacco are alike, and no two barns
are exactly alike. The condition of
the weather may control the temper
ature. It will require a higher tem
perature to dry the leaves in damp,
rainy weather than in dry weather.
Common sense and sound judgment
are the grower’s best guides. As a
rule, more mistakes in curing are
made by going too fast than by going
too slow.
About sunset on the day the curing
is finished, open the. doors and venti
lators of the barn, so as to ' allow
the tobacco to absorb moisture. It
must be gotten into such a condition
that it may be removed from the
barn without breaking the leaves.
Tobacco absorbs moisture very rap
idly if the weather is damp. The
door and ventilators should be closed
curing the day. Usually two nights
I with the ventilators open will be suf
ficient to get the tobacco in condition
to handle If the weather is very dry
it may be necessary to wet the floor
of the barn before the tobacco will
come in “order.” Do not put Water
on the tobacco. In damp weather
tobacco is sometimes damaged on ac
count of becoming too high In “or
der” when being taken out of the
barn. It. is better to take it out of
the barn as dry as possible (when the
leaves may be squeezed gently in the
hand without breaking).
The tobacco is taken from the barn
to the storage house and “bulked
down.” If there is not a suitable
house for storing the tobacco after
it is taken out of the barn one should
be provided. Tobacco is often se
riously damaged by storing in open
houses. The storage house should
be tight and well ventilated. A
square "bulk” is usually made by
placing four sticks in on direction
and placing the next four sticks di
agonally and above the first ones in
the same manner that shingles are
Just how long tobacco should re
main in “bulk” depends on its con
ditions and such factors as room,
space, labor and market conditions.
Tobacco changes a great deal in
“bulk,” and usually improves by re
maining in bulk several weeks.
Enough sticks should be on hand for
filling the barn and curing at least
twice. However, if the sticks are
needed for curing, the tobacco may
be removed from them at any time
it is in proper "order." All strings
are removed and the tobacco re
bulked, and then kept until ready for
sale. Care should be taken at all
times to keep the tobacco from get
ting too high in “order,” for in such
a condition it may mold or even rot.
It is not advisable to handle tobacco
during rainy weather. Sometimes
when the tobacco is taken out of the
barn it will have a motley green
color, but after it has been “bulked”
for two weeks the color •will be uni
form.
In removing the tobacco from the
barn, or in other handling, if any
“swell” stems are found, they should
be taken out and put in the next barn
to be cured.
Tobacco growers should keep post
ed on market conditions. In South
Carolina and Georgia the tobacco
is usually sold as soon as it is
cured, without either assorting or
tying the leaves into hands. How
ever, it will pay the grower to dis
card inferior and trashy leaves.
Usually it Will not pay to make more
than three grades. The first grade
should consist of the good tobacco,
the second grade should consist of
the green and otherwise inferior
leaves and the third grade should
consist of the trashy leaves that are
considered as scrap. A great deal
of labor can be saved in grading by
using good judgment in harvesting.
Leaves that you know will make noth
ing more than scrap should be left
in the field.
The leaves should not be smoothed
out. The system of priming the
leaves taken off represent the bottom,
middle or top leaves as the case may
be. Tobacco should be “bulked” at
least ten days or two weeks before
it is sold.
A common way of taking tobacco
to market is in sheets. The tobac
co is placed on the sheet ust as it
is stacked in the bulk. After putting
on all that can be tied well, tie like
so much cotton and sew the sides
of the sheet so as to leave no to
bacco exposed. Tobacco may also
be shipped to market In boxes and
barrels. In bulking tobacco on sheets
care should be used to turn the butt
end of the leaves outward. This will
insure least amount of damage from
handling and from exposure to the
atmosphere.
Tobacco, is shipped to the manu
factory in hogsheads made for the
puppose and holding 800 to 1,000
pounds.
Tobacco is sold in warehouses to
the highest bidder. The selling of
tobacco for the highest market price
is one of the fine arts, and may be
studied by the tobacco grower with
profit. i

MARY MEREDITH’S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
I beg you to give me some advice.
I am a lonely girl; have been going
with a boy .about twenty-four years
old, whom I love with all my heart.
But for some cause he acts indiffer
ent when around me. He went with
another girl and me at the same
place,- but I’ve been told he thought
I was with another boy. We have
been engaged over a year. What
must I do? Break the engagement
or not? lam eighteen, and can’t be
happy. without him. What can I do
to win him back? Would there be
any harm in Writing him a note and
tell him to come, that I want to talk
with him? Please give me your best
advice, for I love him with all my
heart. I don’t care to be with others
at all. Although I can be with oth
ers, but I am always burdened and
can’t think of anything to say since
he has done me this way.
Dear Miss Mary, please print this
Soon as you can. 1 want your ad
vice. LONELY 18.
The trouble with you and your
sweetheart, you have seen too
much of each other. Even when
one is engaged it does not pay
to have your time taken up so
much with each other. Another
thing, even -when a girl is en
gaged. she should be a little re
served and refrain from telling
or talking too much to the man
she is engaged to. A man likes
taht elusive quality in a woman,
he is naturally a hunter, and to
pursue is his natural Inclination,
and it really doesn’t pay a wom
an to fall on his neck and say,
“Here I am. darling, take me.”
Man is easily disgusted, and
while they crave love and affec
tion (they all do), they do not
care for the Woman who is so
crazy about them. He exacts
each and every minute of their
time. Why don’t you have a
heart-to-heart talk with your
fiance, and if you feel he is
growing cold to you, find out the
cause if you can, and start in to
win him back to you by being
nice and affable toward him and
try to understand him, and above
all do. not quiz him about what
he does; no man likes that, and
you will come nearer keeping
him by not asking questions and
trying to find out his business.
If he doesn’t want you to know
he will either tell you It’S none
of your business, or lie to you.
And you have the same privilege;
there are many things it is wiser
for you to keep to yourself, even
if it may be ever so small and
insignificant. And never repeat
to him anything you hear. He
will learn you can be trusted.
Women, as a rule, talk too much,
and many an engagement has
been broken on that account.
Please advise me through The
Journal, as I am a unhappy mar
ried girl. My husband is so easy
to get mad. He stays mad for three
or four days at a time. I don’t love
him much, anyway, and when he
gets mad it makes me hate him. I
am only twenty. Do you think I had
better leave him? He is thirty-nine
years old and we have only been
married eight months. I feel so
lonely I don’t know what to do. My
father and mother live about two
miles away. I don’t want to ask
their advice for I don’t want them
to know I am so unhappy. Please
answer this in the next Journal. My
husband don’t think they are real
letters. Thanking you for your ad
vice. MBS. M.
It certainly Is a pity you ever
married this man, because you
must have known you didn’t care
anything about him then. As I
have said often before, it is hard
enough to live with each other
at times, even if you love each
other, and unless you love well
enough to forgive the short com
ings you find in each other, it
is mighty hard to get along
happily together. To bear and
fore-bear is necessary in order to
have a contented married life.
Perhaps you might be a little so
OUR HOUSEHOLD
CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE O.THOMAS
Answers to Questions
Dear Mrs. Thomas:
Thought I would write ydu a few
lines asking for a little advice. As
I am a great lover of poultry,
thought I would try to raise some
pure-breds. lamon a farm and have
plenty of woods for the chickens to
run in. I have about twenty-five
chickens and forty-seven small ones,
but they are all mixed up. What I
want to dsk you is: What breed do
you think would be best for me to
raise? I want good layers and fast
growers.
I have never had any experience
with pure-bred. I like Rhode Island
Reds, but have never had any pure
ones. I have had mighty good luck
with the scrubs, and I think I could
make good. Do you think it would
pay me?
How much would It take for me to
start on? I am a poor woman, but
I guess, I can raise the money to
start With, but I would like to know
how much it would take. I am
thinking of selling out all my scrubs
and buying pure-bred, as I think
that would pay me best, don’t you?
Do you think it would pay to let
them run loose in the field or would
it pay me best to pen them?
Please advise as to what you think
would be best for me to do as soon as
possible, as I want to start at once,
also what is best to feed them on?
What do you think of guineas? Do
you thinly there is any money in
them?
I am thinking of raising turkeys
another year. What breed would you
advise «me to use? I am thinking of
buying eggs now to set. Do you
think it would be all right or do you
think it would injure them to be
shipped so far, as I would have to
order them? I have been a silent
reader of The Journal for fourteen
years, and your letters are the ones
I always look for first. I have gain
ed lots of advice through your let-
used in drawing the milk. See that
all th e utensils are put out in the
sunlight to air for several hours.
Sunlight is one of the best disinfect
ing agencies we have. Be sure not
to use any cloths in or about the
utensils. They should be cleaned
with sal soda and a good stiff
bristle brush. The milker should
wash his hands carefully before
milking. The udder should be wash
ed off with water and a clean cloth
and wiped dry. Do not Wet the hands
with milk in drawing it, but milk
dry. The udder should be oiled from
time to time to keep it from chafing.
Be sure that the cow is kept out of
low, swampy lands, as troubles of
this character sometimes arise from
a cow’s wading in stagnant water.
In case this does not effect a cure,
then you can .be certain the trouble
is due to the invasion of the udder
with undesirable forme of bacteria.
In that event, proceed as follows:
Boil a quart of water very thorough
ly and then cool it. To each fifty
parts of boiled water use one part
of carbolic acid. Inject this into
the udder through the milk duct by
mean# of a glass tip, a piece of rub
ber tubing and a glass funnel, or
container. After the solution has
acted for a few minutes, it should
be milked out. Naturally, the milk
is unfit for use when this particular
treatment is being followed.
Correcting the Condition Known as
Cribbing
A. B. C., Waverly Hall, Ga., writes:
I weald like to know what to do to keep
my mules from eating the stalls and
fences. I keep salt brick by them, but
it does no good. I will be very glad
if you will tell me how to break them
of this‘habit.
Your mules have evidently de-,
veloped the ISftoit known as “crib
bing,” as animals showing this dis
position will seldom crib on iron, the
habit can Often be broken by cov
ering the manger and stall fittings
with this metal. A box stall with
smooth walls? will often ptevent the
development of this habit. Another
good practice is to buckle a broad
felame for your husband pouting
with you. Unless you are sure
you can correct the trouble ex
isting between you now, it IS
best to separate. Do not make
his life miserable or yOur own
by putting up with each other
when you dislike him. Life is
too short, and it is a crime to
spoil his life or your own if you
do not care for him. It is too
bad though you couldn’t have
seen this sooner. If you do de
cide to remain with your hus
band and carry out the marriage
contract, “for better or worse
until death do part,” do your ,
duty with “God’s” help, and try
to overcome the feeling of hatred
that rises within your. If you
will try to fight against your
dislikes, maybe you will learn to
love your husband. I really
think he is of the opinion you
care nothing for him. You can
tell him that these are real let
ters; I receive many each day.
Here comes a lonely girl seeking
your advice, though my questions are
somewhat complicated.
I am very anxious to enter high
school this fall. I have finished the
eighth grade. Please tell me a good
way to persuade my parents to let
me go?
Please tell me how to entertain
young people? I can’t interest them.
What do you think of my handwrit
ing?
Your advice will be greatly appre
ciated. “P-ET.”
As a rule it is the other way
about school. Parents are anx
ious to have their children are
education is absolutely neces
the ones who do not care for it,
I feel confident if you will have
a real earnest talk with your
parents they will let you finish
school. An education means so
much to girls and boys these
days and times, and it is neces
sary, because they cannot hold
earn their own living. And if
they are fortunate enough not to
have to make their own way, an
education is absolutely necess
ary, because they cannot hold
any place in either the business
or social world unless they are
fitted for it. And I am sure they
will be only too glad when you

This letter has In it so much that
comes to me daily I am going to
let it answer ten that are on my
desk.
I do not advise anyone to sell all
she has on hand and start with a
new lot if those on hand are healthy
and giving satisfaction. Nor do I ad
vise anyone to buy eggs at this sea-r
son to start on. If one has a cool
place and could get eggs right at
home she might set them, but chicks
hatched in July are not as vigorous
as a rule. They require shade, insects
and, green stuff, and that is a diffi
cult problem for this season.
I have a hen with twenty-five.
They are three weeks old and grow
ing into beauties, but they spend
their days in a corner that is ideal.
They have plenty of buttermilk and
every evening after their Usual feed
of grain I give them an immense
head of lettuce and they do not leave
a thing but roots and stalk. That
shows that they do not get on the
range the tender green they need.
At this season one would have
to sell the hens at a losing price,
for the market does not demand
them.
There are many who buy a trio
of two hens and a cockerel at th«s
time, for most of the raisers of pure
bred stock must make room for the
growing flocks. Trios sell cheaper
.now than at any other time. The
two hens will lay this fall. Begin
early and raise some before cold
weatheL Those young ones and the
trio will snake a gbod start next
year. The three would have to be
Penned so as to be sure of the eggs.
Sell all the mixed male birds and
you can put your scrub eggs on the
market. Gradually eat or sell off the
most unlikely hens of your mixed
lot. Get a cockerel of the same breed
as your trio and next fall set some
of those eggs to help supply your
table, for the two hehs cannot do
that, and next spring buy a setting
or two.
strap about the neck. It should be
adjusted so that it will be just tight
enough to prevent contraction of the
neck muscles. Do not make it tight
enough to interfere with th-e breath
ing of the animal. The strap should
naturally be removed when the ani
mals are in use. These are about
the only suggestions that are likelv
to afford any measure of relief. You
may be advised to wedge or saw the
incisor teeth. This is bad practice
in any event and only affects this
habit temporarily. Cutting the mem
brane attaching the tongue to the
floor of the mouth has always been
advocated, but it is an abortive
means of correcting this evil.
Tomato Growing on a Commer
cial Scale
E. O. W., Cornelia; Ga., writes: I
would like to know the best varieties of
tomatoes to sow commercially in this
section, and how they should be planted
and cultivated.
Among the best varieties of to
matoes for planting in Georgia are
the Stone, the Earliana, the Living
ston and the Beauty. Seed should be
planted about six to eight weeks be
fore the tomatoes are to be trans
planted into the open ground. The
seed are planted in properly prepared
boxes and then transplanted in a
cold frame. If seeded in the open
ground, they xvill be of a more vig
orous type, will grow off more rap
idly and fruit earlier. Tomatoes are
best set in rows three and one-fourth
to four feet apart and they should
have the same spacing in the drill.
One ounce should be sufficient to pro
duce two hundred plants. Four
ounces is about the right amount to
sow for an acre. Tomatoes take
from eighty to one hundred days to
mature. Liberal fertilization is an
important part of the program in
growing tomatoes successfully. It
is also desirable as a rule to culti
vate frequently and thus insure the
retention of a sufficient amount of
moisture to protect the crop as com
pletely as possible against drouth
periods.

SABBATH SCHOOL
LESSON
For July 4—l Sam. 17:1-18:9
‘ BY DR. MARION M’H. HULL
Golden Text: "David behaved himself
wisely in ail his ways; and Jehovah was
with him.”. 1 Sam. 18-14.
After the Spirit of God left Saul, he be
gan to have spells of despondency. No won
der, for lie must have brooded over the pos
sibilities that had been his, aud which he
had lost by Ills wilfullness and self-indulg
ence. The Spirit was no longer behind him,
pushing him forward as He had been; He
was no longer the Paraclete, the One-along
side-to-help; and Saul alone could not throw
off his despondency One of his courtiers
'told him of a shepherd lad not far away
who was a skilled mbsician, and suggested
that he be sent for to play and talk, for, he
said also, this lad was a most attractive
fellow in character and conversation. Thus
it happened that David began liis training
at court; it was one of the parts in God’s
plan to prepare him to be the Master of
that court some day. He did not stay long
at a time, though, for when Saul’s moods
were changed by David’s music, David went
back to the flock in the fields.
The Israelites were still being harassed
by their old enemies, the Philistines. Now
they were gathered in battle array about
eighteen miles from Jerusalem on one side
of the valley of Elah, aud Saul and his army
had set themselves in order on the oppo
site side. In the camp of the Philistines
was Goliath, a gigantic figure, 11 feet, 11
inches tall, and well proportioned. Every
flay he came out into No-man's land, and
Challenged Israel to send out a ninn to
fight him. For forty days tills went on;
but never a man did Israel send out. Where
was Saul? Where- was Jonathan? Saul
thought too much of his own safety; and
Jonathan seemed to have forgotten the God
who had fought for them when the Philis
tines were routed before.
Jesse’s three oldest sons were with the
army. The commissary department de
pended, it seems, partly upon the faithful
ness of the families of tlie soldiers. Or it
may be the boys got tired of hard tack and
other delightful army fare, and that Jesse
kiievv they would appreciate a box from
home. So he called David from the sheep
fold and sent him to them bearing the box.
David arrived just as Goliath was stepping
out with his defiant dare. David seemed
surprised that it had not been taken up be
fore now. Had not this God that Goliath
was defying defeated these very people not
long before? Was there any reason to sup
pose He was any less able or any less will
ing to do so now?
David heard of the rewards offered to
the man who would step out into No-Man’s
Land for Israel; but that did not nrouse
him at all in comparison with the thought
that this uncircumcized Philistine was pre
suming to be mightier than his God, the
God of Israel!
Eliab, his eldest brother, heard his ques
tions, and lost his temper! Eliab’s remarks
were like Damascus blades; but if they cut
David to the quick nobody ever knew it.
Eliab showed his unfitness for anything
large because he wasn’t able to control
himself; but David kept sweet even under
this scathing satire. His only reply was
(in effect), How can any one help inquir
ing in view of this situation?
Well, he kept yn inquiring; and every
time his own faith grew stronger. His faith
was contagious; others began to talk about
it, until finally it readied the ears of Saul.
He sent for David; and in a rather patron
izing way poolipoohed the idea of his being
able to do anything. David was thus forced
to defend himself and told of exploits he
had done as a shepherd. They were not
remarkable in one way; many another sports
man had encountered and conquered dangers
as great. But these differed in one respect.
David recognized that he would not have
been successful in any of them had it not
been for the Lord Ms God! It was Jehovah
who had delivered him out of the paws
of the lion and the bear; and if Jehovah had
done this to save a little lamb of the
flock, surely He would deliver him when he
fought to save a nation from slavery!
Saul could object no more, for he realized
that Jehovah was with this stripling. He
clad him in his armor—but David had no
experience with this. No David could fight
in Saul’s armor. Don’t adopt «ny other
person’s method—adapt it, if you think it
will work for you. You can’t be anyone
else; be yourself. So David put it aside, and
armed himself with—well, let’s see. There
was a staff, and a sling, and a bag, and
five smooth stories from -the brook near by.
Why five? Because five is the number of
grace in the Scripture—it is four, the num
ber of creation, plus one the number of
God. God's creation plus God is grace,
and grace is the undeserved favor of God
regardless of any merit and in spite of de
merit on our part. David’s armor consisted
of eight pieces, and eight is the number
of spiritual perfection (7) plus. David
armed himself with God.
Goliath was entirely differently armed.
He was armed with all that signified man,
and pride in man’s ability. Six is the
number of man in the Scripture. There
are six days for man to labor; all his time
is in multiples of six—a year of twelve
months (2x6), a month of thirty days (5x6).
each day of twenty-four hours (4x6). each
hour of sixty minutes (10x6), each irtnute
of sixty seconds (10x6). Man was created
on the sixth day. There are six words used
for “man” in the Bible.
Now note the three great God-opposed
characters in the Bible. Goliath was six
cubits and a span (about 6 inches) high;
he had six pieces of armor; and his spear
weighed 600 shekels of iron. (The armor
of tlie Chris N-m in Eph. 6 has seven pieces).
Goliath represented the pride of tlie flesh.
Nebuchadnezzar set up an image of him
self which was sixty cubits high, six cubits
broad, and which was to be worshipped
when six musical instruments were sounded
He represented the pride of dominion.
The antichrist’s number is the number of
a man—it is 666. He represents the pride
of Satan’s highest achievement, a super
man who claims to be a God!
So Goliath went out armed with man’s
armor, while David went out armed with
the all-sufficient grace of God. Super
ficially, it looked like the odds were with
Gooliatli; actually, they were all with i
David. For, notice, that of the five stones
THURSDAY, JULY 1, 1920.
that David carried lie needed only one. God
used the practice he had been having out
among the sheep—oh, yes—but it wasn t
David, but God, who really directed that
one stone and gave it force sufficient. It
found the only unexposed part of Goliath's
body; it crushed liis skull and killed Mm
instantly. Notice the text carefully; it was
not Goliath’s sword that ended Ms life; he
was already dead when David severed his
head from his body as a trophy. It was by
the grace of God that David had had power
and directness in flinging that stone. He
had gone into tlie fight with “Tlie battle is
Jehovah’s!” as Ms battle cry, and God had
conquered his enemy for him. He had not
been thoughtful of his own safety, but had
been exceedingly jealous of the good name
of his God. lie cared little for Goliath's
death, but he cared very much for the
Philistines to know that there was a God
in Isreael still.
When you are thinking of yourself and
of your own good name, yotir enemies have
an easy prey: but when you appreciate that
you nre tlie representative of God and that
His good name is at stake, then your ene
mies have no chance at all. I wonder if
David didn’t have in mind partly when he
wrote the shepherd psalm (as the French
translation has it, “He leadeth me in
patlis of righteousness for tlie love of His
name.” Beloved, God's name is nt stake;
just trust Him to take care of it—and you,
incidentally, .as you are bearing it.
If David's conduct in enmp was noble and
heroic, in court it was sublime. He didn’t
get the hand of the king’s daughter ns
lie had been promised, but he gained tlie
heart of the king's son. There was much
in common between them; but of this we
shall study later. Wliat interests us now
is the behavior of David in court. Here lie
had the undivided nnd unstinted devotion
of tlie heir apparent; the women sang his
praises throughout the court nnd tlie king
dr m to sitcli an extent that it aroused the
jealousy of the king: tl’.e king's jealousy
showed itself in uncontrolled nnger and
murderous hatred. As a result of it. David
wns assigned to most ■ hazardous undortnk
ings. nnd because be did them so well wns
promoted to more dangerous ones. Yet in
nil of these he behaved himself wisely.
Neither tlie love of Jonathan n w the praise
<«f -women, nor t’>» hatred of Saul, nor t’ l ' l
no-f"rme’it of military suc''''ss'-s, turned li’s
’’end. Be stood tl>"m nil. and grew *n
favor because lie realized flint God was with
him. and God was resnopsjMu so t - it nil.
It wns David's sens o of God. h ! s droendenco
on God. nnd his willingness to wait God’s
time that made Mm groat iu camp and
greater in court.
God has not changed. He is Just as ready
and willing to do for you as He did for
David.
S'!x months of the year 1920 have passed.
In them there have been 182 (lays, or 156
working days. In the next six months, be
ginning July Ist. there will be 184 days, or
158 working days. You may work just as
hard and just as long and make just as
much money and still have two flays to
spare.
Take this suggestion: take one of these
flays now, this webk, spend it in prayer—
yes, the whole day. Then, in the latter
part of December, spend another day In
thanksgiving for what God has done in
answer to these prayers in July.
