the devoted men and women of local Red
Cross chapters and auxiliaries, and to ev-
cry element and individual in your com.
munity who aided by service and contri-
button.
There is no method by which we can
reach the legion of individuals, organiza-
tons. churches. newspapers. societies
banks, companies and firms whose united
effort has provided this great fund for
humanity, and if through your press anc
by other means you can make public ex
preston of our gratitude we shall deeply
appreciate the courtesy. Their joint ac-
complshment has stirred the pride of ev.
cry American.

FIGURE COTTON SEED PRICE
Rule Given Makes II Easy Matter TO,
Farmer to Determine Cost by
6ushel or Ton.

Mighty few of us are good mathe
maticians, and so whenever <cOttoi
seed is quoted at $40 or $50 a ton
the average person has to figure will
pencil what the price Is per bushel
The following rule is so simple and
so easy that We reproduce it. Clip il
out for reference.
"When the price of ton is given
In dollars take half the price of a
ton and add 1t to itself and the result,
will be the price of bushel in cents.
Thus, If seed is worth $40 ton, take
half Of 20 and add it to 20 and you
get 80 cents as the price of a bushel
If seed Is $50 a ton take half of 80
which is 10, and add it to 80, and you
get As cents as the price of q bushel
of seed. Now to find the price of q
ton In dollars, when the price Of q
bushel in cents is known, you subtract
one third of the price of a bushel In
cents from itself and you have the
price Of ton in dollars. Thus, sup
pose the price of bushel is 60 cents
the third of 60 is 20 which. taken from
60 leaves $40 as the price of a ton
The rule Is so easy that anyone who
knows the multiplication table car
pass from the ton to the bushnl, OF
from the bushel to the ton as FIST a.
he can talk. "-Progressive Farmer.

"The most desirable weight for fin

What Makes Good Feeders7
Feeder lambs should weigh be

YIELD OF CROPS
Few Bushels lore Of Srain May BE
Made Without Any Material Cost
in Production.

1t must be apparent to all who give
the matter careful thought that the
increase of a few bushels of corn, oats
or wheat per acre, or a few pounds of
lint cotton per acre. is a very impor-
tant consideration In profit. A few
bushels more grain may be made with
out any material cost in production.
This increase in production may rep
resent the profit on the crop.
There is always a limit in the cost
of increased yield. The increase must
not cost more than the manager can
afford to pay.
The problem then is to increase the
yield with the least possible expense
Generally by a systematic plan of crop
rotation with the use of manure OF
fertilizer this can be done gradually
till the soil is improved so the normal
yield is greater annually.-Farm and

the fancy of the designer. Material
for evening and dance frOcks. like
those for sports clothes, have a def
mite character. And the same colors
and patterns that appear in silks are
copied in inexpensive cottons, so that

meal; and third, corn or kafir, alfalfa
and cottonseed meal. Lambs fed corn,
alfalfa and cottonseed meal will make
slightly greater but not quite so cheap
gains as those fed kafir, silage, alfalfa
and cottonseed meal. Whole grain
should be fed to lambs because 1t will
not gum as readily as ground grain.
= Increase Grain Gradually.
"A tenth of a pound Of grain day
is plenty to feed at first but this should
be increased gradually. Within two
or three weeks. when the lambs are
on full feed. two or three pounds of
grain should be fed.
"Never crowd or push the lambs,
because IL they once get off feed, they
lose rapidly in flesh. Always feed
plenty of alfalfa. or some other kind
of hay along with spage. A quarter
of "a pound Of cottonseed meal day
is enough. Remember that cheap feed
such as damaged hay may be fed
lambs. From 60 to so days is the
length of the feeding period.
