If for any reason they were separated, they would whinny for each other. How ever, one of the animals became sick recently, and instead of whinnying for its companion, the other horse has just gone away and pays no attention to its sick companion. Some who pro fess to know, say this is a sure sign the sick animal is sure to die, that the other one knows it and just goes ! away and leaves his mate and life companion. Perhaps this is what is often referred to as "horse sense," sometimes superior to man's intel lect. We do not know.

Niekles recently re ceived the Maxwell Chart, which is presumed to forecast what the weath er will be during the coming year. This chart predicts an abundance of moisture and that during the latter part of April there will he an up turn of business making things lit erally boom until the fall of 1942. The chart shows Cass county in the area of abundant rainfall, and pre dicts farm lands will double in price during the coming two years. All we can say is, we hope this prediction comes true, for certainly we can all stand a little more prosperity. Has Splendid Bird Refuge W. O. Troop, who has been feed ing cattle for many years, has allow ed a dense grove to grow just north of the feed yards, which besides pro viding shelter for the cattle has also become a bird harbor, in which many nf thp fenther tribe have found a place of abode during the cold weath er. Among the birds making their home in this refuge are larks, crows, thicadees. red birds, sparrows, swal lows and others. The feed bunks provide them with food and the open water tanks furnish them with drink, even in the most extreme weather. During the heavy snow the matter of feed for the birds has been one of concern to bird lovers, and many have assisted by placing food within reach of the feathered tribes, but at no place' have they congregated in greater number or variety than in the refuge of Mr. Troop. Sunday Guest at Troop Home Sunday guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Troop included their son, Earl, who has been working at Cgallala, but is being transferred to a point in Iowa.

A small box in a sunny window will give the seeds cf a few favor ite varieties of flowers or vege tables several weeks' head-start this spring. If you have no cold frame or hot bed, yet do not want to be limited to the selection of plants usually in the market, the seed box offers a way to grow your own. The name "flat" is usually ap plied to the seed box. It may be of any convenient size, from a cigar box to the standard florist's flat, which is usually 14 by 20 inches, 4 inches deep. Holes may be bored in the bottom of the box to assist drainage, though if the boxes are not watertight, excess water has no difficulty in escaping through the cracks. A cigar box should be re inforced by wire to keep it from falling apart. Soil used in a seed box should always be put through a sieve. The coarse soil may be used in the bot tom, the fine on top. Florists' pot ting soil is the best, or a fine gar den loam, about half sand. Seed may be broadcast one va riety to a flat; or sown in rows, which allows several varieties to be grown in the same box, each row being labeled. The broadcast meth od has some advantage with tiny seeds like petunias. Seeds which are broadcast are usually less crowded than those in rows. If you sow in rows, use the edge of a ruler to make shallow indentations in the soil; sow thinly, cover lightly, and firm the soil with a block of wood.

This is Tuesday of passion week. The opposition against Christ is growing desperate. His enemies could not find fault of his doctrine; they had to admit that he could open the eyes of the blind, that he could heal leprosy and raise the dead; they were completely baffled, defeated in their efforts to discredit Jesus with the people. But they would not concede de feat; they got their heads together and devised a scheme which they be lieved must bring about a condition that would involve him with the civil authorities. So a political ques tion (by the Pharisees); a doctrinal question (by the Sadducees) and a question of personal conduct (by a lawyer) were propounded to Jesus. Will he fail to answer them sat isfactorily? Will he see the trap so cleverly devised and set? Had they really believed that he was a teach er come from God. reason would have told them that their scheme would fail, and they would not have heard from Christ the sevenfold re buke and woe pronounced Jy the Lord. The Pharisees were essentially a religious party, fanatically opposed to everything non-Jewish. Their leading aim was to keep themselves separate from everything that would defile them. Hence their name, Pilar-j isee the separated ones. They were the soul of the opposition to Jesus, opposing him on national and polit ical grounds. Their spirit is char acterized by Jesus as hypocrites, i. e. the spirit of untruthfulness in relig ion and life. They sent a delegation, well in rtructed, with some Herodians, to propound a vexatious question: "Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar or not?" Tribute is in another word "poll, or head tax" levied against every one in the land. To the Jew, who by paying the tax meant a rec ognition of Caesar as ruler, which was very humiliating, being thereby subjected to a heathen ruler. While the people' stood around listening, Jesus called for a coin Roman trib ute money. Vhen handed to him, he asked them whose image and super scription it bore. The answer was correct Caesar's. They had answer ed their own question; but Jesus gave them a wholesome lesson. "Give unto God the things that are God's." Man is the coin and bears the image of God (Geu. 1:27) and the image is not lost by the fall (Geu. 9;6; TOP LAVES OF CACDEN LOAM AND SAND FINELY SIEVED. HALF SHARP SAND AND GAOOE.N LOAM WELL MIXED.

A wet blanket of newspaper may be placed over the soil to keep it from drying, and the box set in a warm, dark place until the seeds sprout. Immediately sprouts appear re move this blanket, and place the box in the sunniest window you own. A kitchen window is good, because humidity is always greater there. If a pane of glass is kept over the box at night, moisture will be con served; but always lift an edge of this cover during the day, for ventilation; wipe off moisture which condenses on it, and remove 'it en tirely when the plants grow high enough to touch it. Watering must be thorough; soak the soil whenever it grows dry; and do this without washing the soil. Seed boxes handled this way sel dom suffer from "damping off," which is a fungous disease that kills little plants. But if you do have this trouble, then disinfectants can be obtained which will mini mize it. Being constantly under observa tion the seed box enables the ama teur to learn at first hand the way seedlings grow, and the conditions which encourage healthy progress. The temperature of the home is usually satisfactory tc the- plants, provided it is not too hot. A day temperature not over 70 degrees and a night temperature not below 55 degrees is satisfactory for most sub jects. Watering must be done care fully at all stages, being careful to let excess water drain away, and net to r ow the soil to become dry. Lesson Study! By I. Neitzel, Murdock, Neb. Acts 17:29; James 3:9). We owe then ourselves to God, and this sol emn duty is implied, of giving our selves to him. with all that we have and are. Because the Jews had fail ed in the foregoing is the reason that they were in subjection to Caesar. Jesus teaches here that civil gov ernment must be supported, because of the protection it gives to citizens; even so must the kingdom of God be supported by its members each has a function of its own and the twain must not mix. The second question by the Sad ducees about marriage after the resurrection (22:23-33). This group was the poitical party of the Jewish aristocratic priesthood from the time of the Maccabees to the final fall of the Jewish state. Anyone could be a Pharisee, but a Sadducee must be a descendant from the priest class. They denied the immortality and resurrection of the body; they denied the existence of angels; they denied the fore-ordination and upheld the freedom of the human will. With their question, they showed great ig - norance of the scriptures. Jesus quotes the 110th Psalm, which was held by all as a Messianic Psalm. (A close study of this Psalm is suggest ed). The resurrected body is a glori fied body, earthly passions and de sires are absent; they are like the angels sexless. There will be no marriages in heaven, that belongs to the earth to propagate the race. It was rather a silly question from these learned men to ask. The last question by a Pharisee was asked candidly and in sincerity: "Which is the great commandment in the law?" To grasp the signifi cance we quote that the Pharisees counted 013 laws; of these 3fi5 nega- tive (as the days in the year), 24 8 positive (as the bones in a human body). It was a much debated ques tion among the leaders of the Jews. Had these leaders known the scrip tures they would not have had to ask the question. Jesus quotes Deut. G:5 and Lev. 19:18. These scrip tures they had. Wc may well ponder them and see if we understand them and then GO and IK). In the closing verses of the chap ter, Jesus turns questioner: "What think ye of Christ? Whose son is he?" Their answer was correct. The Tenealogy of Matt. 1 proves this, and they expected a descendant of David to be the Messiah; and since Jesus fulfilled all the prophecies and has proven by his ministry that he indeed is the Sou of God, then why do men not believe on liira? "We behold his glory, the glory as of the only be gotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." (John 1:14). Nehawka Victor Sturm has been feeling poorly the past week, but is reported somewhat better. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Guede and their babe of Palmyra were guests last Sunday at the home of the par ents of Mrs. Guede. Mr. and Mrs. Lyle Kruger. of Nehawka, where all enjoyed a very pleasant visit.
