The Red Gross Presidents Appeal 70
American Generosity.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 14-Miss Clara
Barton, president Of the American
National Red Cross, makes the following
statement to the American people:
The non-concurrence Of the house OF
Representatives in the senate bill Of the
9Th inst, appropriating 100000 for the
transportation Of the donations Of grain
and other food from the western states.
notably Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska,
TO the starving peasantry Of Russia,
awakens an interesting fact worthy of
the attention Of the country at large
which fact it becomes my duty to lay
before you.
It is beginning to be well known that
20, 000, 900 OF human beings, sufficient TO
constitute the working elemsst of q
great nation, are not only enduring the
pangs of hunger, but are facing actual
starvation, and this amid snow, ice and
q degree Of cold which it ID scarcely
possible for MS to realize. The crops Of
these people have failed. Their harvest
has been withheld, whilst in our own
more fortunate country the blessings Of
this years abundance have almost be-
come burden.
Realizing these facts, the people Of
our great food producing states have
sprangt to the rescue, and have proceeded
TO donate vast quantities Of grain for
shipment to their starving fellow beings
across the sea. All hands are now busy
collecting these gifts for shipment, and
the railroads have granted free transpor-
tation to the seaboard.
But here confusion has arisen. In
the hope of aiding the efforts Of the
donors the navy was asked to provide u
ship to carry the gifts Of grain to Rus
STA. The only ship at the disposal of the
navy was offered, but proving to be q
sailing vessel, old and unsuitable to this
service, 1t must be declined.
The effort to obtain other assistance
through the government has failed. Rus
STA offers to transport the gifts herself
from New York to her own ports, pro
vided the cost of such transportation
does not exceed the value Of the gifts
1t remains for the people Of grand
country like ours, at this very moment
raising money in untold millions for ex-
hibits, and inviting all the world to
come and view its grandenr-it remains
for MS to decide If we will send our bas-
ket Of food to our poor perishing neigh
Dor ajrOss the way, or IL we will set it
on our own doorstep and leave him to
come and carry it away, If he is able,
while we look on.

The latest contribution of the literarV
bureau of the Department of Agricul-
tural to the stock of choice farm read
ingis entitled Additional Evidence
on the Communicability Of Peach Vel

mony, in brief is that the maladies in
question are contiguous. The literary
bantlings of the Department of Agri-
culture must cost considerable money
in the aggregate; yet no money ex-
pended by the Department could be
placed to better advantage than in the
dissemination of instruction. of .prac-
