county arc reported to he heavily

ers in this section of the state are
giving their pecan trees added atten-
tion nines the g""0 crop last year prov-
ed a real life-saver to many when their
other crops failed
Whitehurst, president of the state
beard of agriculture.
The tlgure would represent a record
yield, the maximum previous crop be-
ing In 1921 when the state produced
7S.000.000 bushels. Whitehurst said the
most favorable feature of this year’s
crop Is that it is general throughout
the state.
Through the testimony of John the
Baptist, his disciples were pointed to
Jesus. Tills same testimony he gave
the previous day, but he was not
ashamed to repent his sermon. Ills
theme was the Lamb of God, the sin-
hearer of the world.
I. Two of John’s Disciples Follow
Jesus (vv. 35-37).
As a result of the Baptist's testi-
mony two of his disciples left him and
followed Jesus. One of these disciples
was Andrew Jv. 40). and presumably
the other was John. When the Baptist
pointed out Jesus ns the Lamb of God.
the long-expected Messiah, these dis-
ciples sought further acquaintance
with Jesus. In view of John's request,
they looked upon the Lord. This look
was sufliclefil to induce them to follow
Jesus. They believed.
I!. The Two Disciples Abiding With
Jesus (vv. 38, 30).
1. Jesus’ Question (v. 38). When
Jesus saw the disciples following He
most kindly inquired as to their object
2. The Disciples' Reply (v. 39).
They answered his question by Inquir-
ing as to His dwelling place. Their
reply showed their desire to go apart
privately where they could disclose
their hearts to Him Knowing their
hearts, He Invited them to Uls place
of abode.
III. The Disciples Bringing Others
to Jesus (vv. 40).
The very genius of Christianity Is
self propagation. The usual method Is
to begin with those nearest us—home
folkB and relatives—and pass out to
ever-widening circles. The disciples
who were with Jesus In blessed fellow-
ship go at once to tell others of the
priceless treasure they have found.
1. Andrew Brings Peter (vv. 40-42)
This Is a beautiful sight of brotherly
affection expressing Itself In bringing
another to Christ. The best place to
begin our testimony for Christ is
among our kinsfolk (Luke 8:39). Tills
was a great piece of work for Andrew,
for Peter became one of the pillars of
the church of God.
2. Philip Bringing Nathaniel (vv.
43-48). Christ found Philip the follow-
ing day as he would go forth Into Gali-
lee. Philip followed Him In response
to a personal Invitation. As soon as
Christ found Philip, Philip found Na-
thaniel and witnessed to him concern-
ing the messlnhshlp of Jesus. He said
unto him, "We have found Him, of
whom Moses In the law, and the
prophets did write, Jesus of Nazareth"
(v. 45). Nathaniel was somewhat
skeptical, but he was honest. Philip
had the wisdom not to urgue with him,
but brought him to Jesus. The one
who is honest when brought into the
presence of Jesus will soon have all
doubts removed (John 7:17).
IV Nathaniel, Seeing and Hearing
Jesus, Testifies to His Divinity (vv
47-51). t
As soon ns Nathaniel saw and heard
Jesus all his doubts rolled away. Il>-
who nets upon the light given shall see
greater things (vv. 50, 51). Angels
itsi ending and descending upon tit
Son of Man vvltli the open heavens
shows that .li-sus Christ Is the means
of cotniminleution between earth and
heaven (licit 10:19, 20; Kph. 2:13
Gen. 28 :12f
This narrative concerning the expe
rlences of the first disciples exhibits
Hie following stages of Christian expe
rlences:
1. Hearing About Jesus (v. 30).
How Important It Is that the minister
and teacher have a proper conception
of Jesus as the sacrificial Latuh, the
sin hearer of the world.
2 Lot*:,Ing Upon Jesus (v. 30). It Is
necessary that the sinner definitely flx
his attention upon Jesus.
3. Following Jesus (v. 37). It t* not
enough to merely look upon nim.
There must be definite efforts to fctlow
utter, to Inquire of Him.
4. Abiding With Jesus (v. 39). Those
who earnestly look upon Jesus and In
quire after Him He welcomes Into
blessed fellowship.
5. Witnessing for Jesus (vv. 41, 45).
The first thing the one does who has
come to Jesus Is to begin to witness
for Him.
0. Bringing Others to Jesus. The
chief delight of the one who has come
to know Jesus by a personal experi-
ence Is to bring others to LUui.
After the first five or six weeks,
roosts should be supplied for the
young turkeys. Ordinarily, if there
are open trees or rail fences in wood-
ed spots, or other natural protection,
no especlnl pains need he taken to
supply roosts. However, where there
are high wind* it is better to build the
roosts in a shed or next to the barn,
or under trees where there is some
protection. An excellent way to do this
Is to set the posts in the ground and
lay poles across them at a height of
from four to five feet. The evening
feed should be given to the turkeys
near this roosting place just before
dark. It may be necessary, at first,
to drive them to the place, but after a
time they will come up every evening
for their feed and will go to roost
without any extra bother. By handling
the turkeys in this way, the chances
of loss will be greatly reduced and
this little first trouble will pay In re-
turned dividends, says the Successful
Farmer.

Live Poultry Prepared
for Best Market Priced
Marketing the poultry In Uve form
Is usually the most satisfactory meth-
| od for pouttrymen to pursue, unless
l the dlstunce is so great as to make the
■hipping co-t prohibitive. Poultry
may *be marketed both in live and I
dressed form, but the skill and expert- i
ence required to finish and dress the j
birds for market ntake it advisable not \
to kill.
Most poultry raisers do not have the
necessary skill to feed out, kill and
pick the birds In a way to bring the
highest market price. The lower
quality of the product is very apt to
more than offset the lower shipping
cost and the feeder's profit. Also,
there is more danger of Improper!
handling and spoilage in transit.
Poultry, to be shipped in live form, j
should always he fnttened before lull-
ing. This means better quality, more
weight and a considerably higher | n, e
per pound. Poor and underfed p
try is hard to keep without spoiling
and if kept long It deteriorates great- j
ly in appearance. The market is usu- .
ally overstocked with poor poultry and j
understocked with first-class birds.
All poultry,whether nmvketed dressed
or alive, should lie shut ap in pens and
fed from ten days to two weeks or
more before shipment.
