Lou For Their Wheat

EATON, O., Sept. Sin the opinion
Of members Of the executive commit

1920 per bushel is not a fair price for

$2.17 for the bulk OF the wheat In the
county, and the advisable thing to do
according to the committee, is to hold
the crop until the system of market
ing, etc. is worked out and net price
at the farm determined

What the Money is Used For

The following clipping from the
Boston Transcript shows what the
money contributed to the Red Cross
does for the soldiers.
There are 100000 members of the
American Red Cross. They each gave
a dollar for membership.
In addition to that the people of the
United States gave a cool $780, 100000.
What has become of that money? H..
p. Dawson, head of the Red Cross
work, says that only 81 100000 of that
great sum goes to paying for the ex-
pense of administering the Red Cross
work.
The other $1O1, 100000 goes to the
spot
Nifty work, I should say, for few
corporations in the world have so
great a net surplus to distribute in a
year.
Well, what does the Red Cross do
with its money?
1t has given $1,000000 for sick and
wounded French soldiers.
Established twenty dispensaries in
the American army zone.
Distributes supplies to 1923 French
military hospitals.
Gives surgical supplies to 1000
French hospitals.
Operates ten army canteens at the
front
Accommodates 10000 French sold
iers daily at six other railway can
