This is a truly wonderful, marvelous age in which we live.

It is to be launched between July 1957 and December 1958. The United States is not alone in this project. Some German scientists say that Russia will launch one first. France and England are also readying pro- grams of space satellites. This idea is not new.

Technician We have been helping John Loudenber, on Sand Mountain make a basic plan fer his farm. This basic plan will be based on the capabilities of the soils on the farm according to a soil survey that has already been made and the type farming he plans to do. In Mr. Loudenber’s case it will be general farming which will include row crops, cattle and he plans to reset some cf his cut-over woods in, pines after the cull hardwood trees have been cleared off. * I W. L. Fannin, at Rising Fawn, 1 has begun work on the addi¬ tional track of land he recently purchased. He has been clean- ing up hedge rows and creek banks that will grow good grass and make a much neater field of pasture. Another of his im¬ mediate jobs he has planned is to establish some wide, flat- bottomed drainage ditches in a large, almost level field to take care of the water that comes off some rather steep land bor¬ dering it. This field already has a fair stand of bermuda grass and lespedeza and should make a good pasture after he adds clover, rye grass and dallis grass to it. Mr. Frank Sells, at Wildwood, is planning to build a nice, large loafing barn for his dairy herd that will permit his cows to feed and stay cut of the bad weather during the winter. He also plans to make use of an iron ore pit by constructing a dam across it for a stock pond in his pasture where there is no water at present. . DR. G. K. Mar.VANE Ft. Payne, Ala. Chiropractor and Naturopath 720 N. Gault Avenue L,/ iuveL <zf\fzax ? ? ? has been kept since 1947 and spies have been oonvicted of passing information on this subject to Russia. Several scientists are very op- tcmistic about this step toward space travel and huge numbers of ordinary people as well. French scientists say that a trip to the moon Ls only a mat¬ ter of money. A German voiced the beliefs of scores of scientists when he said, “All we need Is a billion and we could go ahead with building a space station from which we could drive far¬ ther out into space.. Many others believe that space travel is impossible and against God’s will and they have some good reasons. They believe that God did not intend for us to go to the moon or any ether celestial body and will thwart all plans to do so. What do you think?
