Six acres of the grass was cut
for hay. It yielded sixty bales'
per acre in September and 151
bales per acre in October. This
made a total of 75 bales per
acre. The hay was sold for
60 cents a bale. The cost of bal-
ing was 20 cents per bale so that
leaves 40 cents per bale gross.
Seventy-five bales per acre at 40
cents per bale equals $30 income
per acre. The cost of establishing
the grass was $15.10 per acre,
leaving $14.90 per acre clear
profit the first year.
A profit of $14.90 per acre in
one year besides having a well-
established pasture where he had
nothing before is a pretty good
record.
Roberts also stated that he

a job putting it in and didn’t

Bible Comment:
Bear in Mind
Lesson in
' r.
Genesis
‘THE essential truth of the
- Genesis story, with its alle-
gory of the serpent and the apple
and the Tree of Knowledge of
Good and Evil, is that man sinned
and fell and that the essence of
sin is disobedience to the divine
command.
* Genesis represents man’s sin as
eating of the forbidden fruit, and
the fact that in his disobedience
man became conscious of wrong,
and a moral being. This led some
to say that “the fall was, a fall
upward”—that sin is a sort of
lesser good—a factor in human
progress.:
• This supposition may sound
plausible and pleasant, but it
doesn’t accord with the Bible or
the facts of life. When man dis-
regards God’s commandments we
see how fiendishly he can treat
' his fellow men. There is no fall
upward in such fiendishness.
P Adam and Eve lost the idyllic
Garden of Eden, but can we not
see in that a symbol of the Eden
of peace, contentment and hap-
piness that man has lost today
through sin and sefishness, hatred
and strife?
II it were not for the fact that
I over against man’s sin and failure
stand God’s promises and God's
redeeming grace, man must have
perished completely long ago.
Man has sinned and failed,
true. But God is not dead. His
promises are fulfilled in count-
less numbers, who love Him and
who love their fellow men.
They are the hope and as-
, surance of the world’s salvatior

timber cleared from his farm,
but he left some brush piles and
undergrowth along spring branch-
es for places of protection. By
planting vetch for the last five
years he has developed 1000 acres
of Bermuda grass pasture. The
grass is not overgrazed except
during extreme drought periods
and plenty of grass is left for
cover. He also has left travel
lanes of brush from watering to
feeding areas.
Last year W’ard planted 50
different feeding areas to millet.
The areas varied from one to
six acres in size, and they were
fenced to keep livestock out.
Travel lanes were provided from
these feeding areas to the wa-
tering places. Also, across 800
acres Ward planted two strips
eight feet wide to millet. A 12-
foot spacing between the two
strips was left so the birds could
rise and fly. Common and Kobe
lespedeza have been planted in
the pastures which provides food.
Dove weeds along fence rows are
; left for food, and about 1100
acres of vetch and rye are plant-
ed each year.
Ward is cooperating with the
Trinity-Neches Soil Conservation
I District in carrying out a soil,
| water and plant conservation
program which includes pasture
' and wildlife improvement.
