Alliance, Neb., June 2l.-(Special. }
Alliance and Box Butte county
have entered the campaign to obtain
funds for the Red Cross war fund
with zeal and a spirit never before
expressed in the community.
The committee in charge of this
work under the chairmanship of
Frank Was. has undertaken the
most titantic advertising propaganda
possible. Red Cross steamers are
floating from every car. Pennants are
strung across the street. The orna-
mental lights are all painted with Red
Cross signs and the city seems to be
turned entirely over to that organ
ization until the required amount is
obtained.
The results so far indicate that ALI
ance will obtain its full quota for the
Red Cross.

Lincoln, Neb., June 2l.-Summary
of weather and crop conditions in Ne
braska for week ending June 10, 1917
says: The last week was favorable for
all vegetation and farm work pro-
gressed without interruption. The
temperature averaged about 5 degrees
below normal.
Showers occurred on Tuesday and
Friday, but the rainfall was light, the
total for the week being generally
less than a quarter inch. In some
eastern counties the total was slightly
more than a half inch, while some
central stations report no rain during
the week, Rain is now needed in
some sections.
The condition of corn has improved
somewhat. Cultivation progressed
nicely in the greater portion of the
state and fields are free of weeds. In
some western counties early corn is
yellow, but the late planted has good
color. Cut worms did little dam
age in the northwest, necessitating
replanting.
"The first crop Of alfalfa was cut
quite generally and is in fair condi-
ton. Wheat, oats, rye and barley are
doing well. Potatoes continue in
good condition, although there are
few reports of blight in some south
eastern counties. Pastures and gar
