THE CATTLE PROBLEM OF INDIA 77 



plied by the mission dairy. The Government is very 

 anxious for us to have a properly equipped dairy school 

 where we can train Indians to go out to supply the In- 

 dian cities with pure milk. The medical authorities feel 

 that a good supply of pure, clean milk for Indian cities 

 would do much to reduce the high infant mortality. 

 So we are anxious to get our dairy equipment as soon as 

 possible to enable us to meet this urgent demand and 

 a thoroughly trained dairyman who is not afraid of dif- 

 ficult problems. 



"When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have 

 sinned against thee; if they pray toward this place, and confess 

 thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou afflictest them: 

 Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy servants, 

 and of thy people Israel, that thou teach them the good way 

 wherein they should walk, and give rain upon thy land, which 

 thou hast given to thy people for an inheritance. If there be in 

 the land famine, if there be pestilence, blasting mildew, locust, 

 or if there be caterpillar; if their enemy besiege them in the 

 land of their cities; whatsoever plague, whatsoever sickness there 

 be; What prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, 

 or by all thy people Israel, which shall know every man the 

 plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this 

 house: Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and forgive, 

 and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose heart 

 thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only, knowest the hearts of 

 all the children of men;) 



Blessed be the Lord, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, 

 according to all that he promised; there hath not failed one 

 word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of 

 Moses his servant. The Lord our God be with us, as he was with 

 our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us: That he may 

 incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep 

 his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which 

 he commanded our fathers." I Kings 8: 35-39**56-57-58.
