Mr. Lockwood of the Idaho Farm Bureau did put great emphasis fi n (membership loyalty as a means of controlling production. Reuben Johnson, of the Farmers Union, pledged Farmers support of the Mondale-Berglan- d Bargaining Bill as a more effec-iv- e way of getting good faith rs bargaining, which calls for to call for bargaining a provision of supply management, provision for agree rnent to be reached and a provision for the federal government to control and prevent violations. Mr. Johnson said that to settle ?or less than the above provisions would be raising false hopes for farmers. Tony Dechant, national president of the Farmers Union, said that passage of H.A. 1163 in the Senate is an absolute necesThe bill would increase sity. vheat and feed grains loans by 15 per cent and establish reserves of excess supplies to relieve the glutted market. The bill has passed the House. Dechant denounced the Nixon Administrations new incentive program for extra diversion of wheat acres, calling it tokenism. He said, The diversion payment of 94 cents per bushel eor reduced production is an admission of the failure of the set aside land retirement plan. It holds little promise of reducing production enough to increase wheat prices. He cited the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimate that the plan might reduce production by about 170 million bushels.

Our goal is 100 per cent c f parity for all farmers, regardlcsf of what it takes to get it, he said. We have been fighting increases in costs for others wher we should have been fighting tr increase our own income. Nc segment of agriculture is receiving full parity for what it produces. In fact, the parity leve' keeps going lower and the cost-pricsqueeze continues to widen he said. On unity, the Montana president said, We know that the agricultural coalition of a large number of farm and ranch organizations and comodity groups which supported the coalitior bill proves that agriculture car work together. We also realize that the unified efforts work because labor and industry haw demonstrated the effectivness of organization. In a panel on farm bargaining moderated by Karl Shisler, between Farmers Union, National Farmers organization and Farm Bureau, it was made perfectly clear where each organizatior stood as far as bargaining is concerned. It wso also evident that the three groups were in favor of some form of bargaining. The FNO is firmly convinced that collective bargaining at thr farm level is the answer to the higher prices for farmers. On questioning from the floor however, Devon Woodland, National Farmers Organization (NFO) did admit that some form of production control was needed; he did not state how this should be accomplished. t, Training Rules tions for 1972 went into effect Jan. 1 to protect Utah wildlife and encourage use of dogs for hunting. A spokesman said the properly trained hunting dogs not only benefit the hunter but contribute substantially to the conservation of upland game birds and water fowl by locating downed game. Wildlife are protected by the strict regulations which prohibit unlawful chase of wild game birds. Also illegal are training, dog meets, or field trials using privately reared birds without prior authorization from the Division of Wildlife Resources. Dog training on wild game birds is legal during the nonnesting period of August 16 to March 1. Firearms allowed for Gaining are pistols or revolvers firing blank cartridges. Owners are responsible for the their dogs in the field. A dog is not allowed to take wild actions of game except in assisting a hunter during the hunting season. To take is to kill, hunt, pursue, harass or capture. All men are bom free and equal, but grow up in a graduated income tax world.

BOB JONES But while ne thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying. Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in . her is of the Holy Ghost Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him . . (Matthew 1:20.24) When God gave witness to Joseph, he believed it. Are you quick to believe God? Many people who claim to believe the Bible are not quick to do those things that are quite clear in Scripture. Unlike Joseph, they continue to sit and weigh the consequences before they decide whether or not they want to do that which God has told them to do. Suppose Joseph had waited. Time was pressing. There was a limit to the time for pondering. There was a moment when action had to occur, a decision had to be made, a deed had to be done. IIow often today do men wait beyond that timel And because we continue to onder after the Holy Ghost as spoken and the witness of God is clear, the Cause of God suffers and souls go to Hell. Joseph had the record of the prophet that a virgin should Released by the Gospel conceive and have a Son (Isaiah 7:14). And Matthew sets down the truth that this is the event that was prophe- . i sied (w. 22. 23). A virgin not only a woman who had not had relations with Joseph, but also a woman who was completely virgin brought forth child conceived of the Holy Ghost in a body untouched by man. God always fulfills His Word: He always completes what He begins When He promised in the day of mans sir. that the Seed of the woman serpents should bruise the God made (Genesis 3:15) Ilis plans and brought them to pass in His own time. That is something we would do well to remember at Christmas. Most people nominal Christians and those who are not niritiio in their outlook have no real conception of why we celebrate Christmas. To them it is a time of festival and feasting. But when true Chris-'Jan- s think of Christmas, they are driven to the conclusion that this blessed Season constantly reminds us that He Who has begun a good work in us sh"ll perform it until the day of completion (Philippians 1:6).
