4-H Members
To Ee Returned After Harvest or
Paid for at the Market Figure
At That Time.
In an attempt to more forcefully
foster the growing of certified seed
crops and improved varieties, the Ne
braska Crop Growers association an
nounced distribution of small quan
tities of varied seeds to 4-H crop3
1; in various parts of the state.
Paul II. Stewart, extension agron
cn lit at the college of agriculture
and secretary of that organization,
made the announcement.
Rural boys enrolled in the 4-H
clubs will be given certified oats, bar
Icy, and sorghum seed by the crop
growers. They will either return the
same amount of seed late this sum
mer after harvesting, or pay market
value for it at that time.

"Jesus Helps a Doubter"
Luke 7:19-28.
Tho seventh chapter of Luke is the ,
frame, and the verse3 of the lesson
the picture. The background and
fiar..e bring cut the beauty of the
rl.turo. First v.e see Jesus as the
"friend in need." A Centuyon, a
Roman officer, a heathen, shows a
remarkable faith in Christ. (All the
centurions of the N. T. are spoken of.
i a favorable way; Luke -23:47;
Acts 10:1; Acts 22:26; Acts 27:43
and this man). Jesus marveled at
this man's faith, that he had in
Jesus spoken word; and that faith
was honored; the sick man was heal
ed. Jesus' own people did not show
such faith.
Next we have recorded by Luke
a "gem." which is worthy of claiming
6ome of our attention. Going south
west from Capernaum about 20 miles,
he comes to the little town of Nain.
A great tbrong follows him. A sad
proce.--.3ion is emerging from the city.

Or is it tho disciples of John? May-

imprisoned in the castle Machaerus,
condemned to idleness, that fircy na-
ture, and here tho Christ of God, to
bring deliverance to those in prison;
why is he not set free! Two of his
disciples are sent to Jesus to bring
a definite answer, to set his mind at
rest. Did Jesus say: "I am the prom
ised Messiah?" No. He invites these
men to tell John what they have
"seen and heard;" they are to be
witnesses of his power, and that
should be proof of his Messiahship.
That is today the best proof of Jesus

some hybrid seed corn in small quan

power to save, the living witnesses;
that were spiritually dead and are
now alive, blind and now can see,
i cleansed from the leprosy cf sin,
were deaf and now can hear the
voice of God.
The answer these disciples are to
! carry to John is somewhat puzzling;
ialmost seems unfeeling, no word of
sympathy or cheer; but wants John
to draw his own conclusions'. Chris
tianity is doing greater thing3 than
named above; it is making men and
women new creatures, the drunkard
sober, the thief honest, the harlot
pure; it is changing the dregs of
society into good citizens and mem
bers of churches.
Now Jesus gives color to the pic
ture. His eulogy of John may be said
to be his funeral address. Verses 26
28 bring out the glorious character
cf John and must be given the prop
er study. A prophet? No, more than
a prophet. He occupies a unique po
sition, he links the "old" and the
"new" together; he is the herald, the
forerunner, the messenger of the
"King." But for all that, filled with
the Holy Spirit, before he is born,
occupying such an exalted position
did not experience the joy of sins for
given. Jesus says, "the least in the
Kingdom of God is greater than he."
The simple meaning of these words
ceems to be that, in blessings and
privileges, in knowledge, in revealed
i v.oman, called
a "sinner." The cir
cumstances are as follows: A promi
nent Pharisee gave a banquet in
honor of Jesus; and a3 was the cus
tom, the house was open. Anyone

precious ointment and
poured it on his feet. The Pharisee
observing this, disapproved of it,
which Jesus noted, and taught this
self-righteous man a wholesome les
son. Thi3 woman was the kind for
whom he had tome into the world.
The contrite heart, the broken spirit
need the physician; the penitent is
in need cf a pardon and the "sinner"
needs a Savior all thi3 the woman
(was, hence she had come to the right
place, and left the house a foreiven

time religion and it's good enough
for me. Yes, and any one else. Her
faith had saved her, and what a joy

a new joy and peace thrills her
heart. "Thy sins are forgiven" rings
in her ears. "Ring the bell3 of heav

Water Trans

Middle West
Promise of Lower Rates on the Ship
ment of Basic Crops of the
Great Middle States.
As we see the preparation of the
Missouri river for navigation going
forward to completion in 1937 or
I193S, the people of this inland terri
tory can hardly visualize the import
ance of it, and so we just wonder
what it is all about. A few statistics
and figures which are official facts
may aid in making it more concrete
and more easily understood. In 1933,
freight originated and carried by the
railroads on which V.'.jy collected
freight amounted to 693,943,000
short tons. While the same year the
freight carried on the inland navi
gable rivers, canals, and connecting
channels on which freight was col
lected amounted to 182,965,000 short
tons. In other words, the inland
waterways carried about 26 as
much freight as wa3 carried by the
railroads.
Terhaps an actual example will
help us to get a clearer understand
ing of just what it actually means.
Last year the all-j .i il freight rate on
corn from Kansas City to Chicago
was 17.5 cent3 per 100 pounds.
The first down-stream tow on the
Missouri river was a shipment of
51,000 bushels of grain from Kansas
City to Chicago. The bargo line
freight rate on this shipment was 9.7
cents per 100 pounds, a saving of
7.8 cents per 100 pounds, or a sav
ing of 4.68 cents per bushel, or a
saving of $2,386.80 in transportation
cost.
The Omaha World-Herald cf Jan
uary 9, 1936, says:
"A rate study indicates that when
the proposed nine-foot channel of
the upper Missouri is completed, it
will be possible to deliver a bushel
of wheat from Omaha, St. Joseph,
Sioux City and ether ports at a cost
of about 14 cents to Liverpool, Lon
don, Hamburg, Rotterdam, Antwerp
I or toracaux. ine snipmeni, maac
inow by rail, lake and canal to New-
York and then abroad, costs about 25
cents.
"The wheat grow n in the middle -west
must reach the world market in
competition with wheat from the val
ley of the Rio do la, Plata in the
Argentine. -The. , rate for a bushel
from Santa Fe on the La Plata to
Liverpool and Hamburg is 15 cents.
Similarly, the rate from the Danube
river ports to Liverpool and Bremen
is 15 cents a bushel.
"If the American wheat grower
could cut 10 cents a bushrl off the
cost of shipping wheat .to the world
market, his ability to compete in that
market would rise at once."

Everybody Wanted Eread
Last Friday when the storm closed

unable to make their regular trips,
the lost art of baking was revived in
many a home, the finished product
varying all the way from flapjacks
to corn bread and now and then some
who baked real bread. Biscuits w-ere
me Euoterluges. Baking bread lor
home consumption has become well
nigh a loct art, with every town and
village supplied daily with bread end
pastries from the oven3 of the large
city bakeries.
Bruce Well3, who drives the Peter
Pan delivery truck was able to get
only r.s far as the narrows filling sta
tion south of Plattsmouth Saturday,
but with the opening up cf the road
was able to get to Murray McnJay,
and there wa3 also bread shipped in
by rail that day, so the era of bi.uuits
came to a3 sudden a close as it had

Died at Omaha Hospital
During the past month, Ed McCul
loeh has been seriously ill at his home
in the country, growing much worse
last week. With the roads so badly
drifted after the blizzard of Monday,
February 3rd, it was impossible to
get him to a hospital and the aid of
the road men and their equipment
was invoked to open up the road lead
ing to his place from the highway.
Dr. R. W. Tyson then arranged trans
portation for the patient to Omaha,
where he was placed in a hospital lor
treatment. On Sunday night he pass
ed away. An account of his life will
be found elsewhere in this i.ssue of
the Semi-Weekly Journal.
It was a very fine thing that the
road men and other friends of Mr.
McCulIorh gave their time to opening
up the road, the work being complet
ed only a short time before another
blizzard again drifted all the high
ways shut on Saturday.
