THRTY-FIVE MILLION
GIVEN TO RED CROSS
Another 100000 Promised,
But Donors Name Withheld.

Thirty-five million dollars with an
other S10,OOO.oOO in sight from one
OF the country's richest men. was the
standing at noon today of the Red

In the race between the various
states the North Central division led
in contributions, with the Middle At.
lantic second, New England third.
the West fourth, and the South nth.
In the West. San Francisco, Los
Angeles and Seattle have not reported
to the Washington headquarters.
More than half OF the 500. 0O0, 900
would be subscribed by tonight, it
seemed assured.
The donor Of the $4,000. 900, which,
when received. will be the largest
single subscription so far, keeps his
Identity secret. 1t is reported he is
q well known oil maEnate.
Richmond shows Mettle.
Richmnd, Va, was the first city in
the South to go one the honor roll OF
cities that have already reached their
allotment. Richmond has exceeded
its allotment of S15O.O0O by $4,000.
The total in the north central d.
vision at noon was ST,644.T91.6 SO. which
Is % per cent OF its allotment. The
States in the north central division
had reported by noon as follows:

Although Chlcago's contribution OF
50 900, 600 is 10 far larger than any
other city in the north central divi-
sion, OhiY's total at noon exceeded
that Of Illinois because OF strong
showings made by Cleveland, Cincin-

DISTRICT FARMERS
MAYLEAD NATION
War Gardeners Eager For
Canning Information.
BULLETINS IN BIG DEMAND
COnOly's Illness Delays Inspection
Of Times Gardens.

II the crowds OF people who throng-
ed the office OF the central garden
committee yesterday afternoon and
this morning, calling for DEPART
ment OF Agriculture bulletins on can
ming and drying vegetables and
fruits, Is any indication Of the In
terest taken by the "wsr gardeners"
Of Washington, this city will lead the
rest Of the country in the drive for
food preparedness.
II. VI. Connolly, Department OF Agri-
culture demonstration and chief Judge
In The Times garden contest, has
been flooded with letters and per,
sonal requests for the bulletins
which give a comprehensive survey
of the most advanced methods used
in canning and drying.
The bulletins may be obtained free
OF cost at the office OF the Central
Garden Committee, room 304, Star
building.
Emphasizes Canning.
Mr.. Connolly planned to inspect
demonstration gardens in the north
east section OF the city today. but he
was taken i'll yesterday and will be
confined TO his home until Thursday.
"Can something" is TO be the slogan
OF all gardeners from now until win
ter. Mr.. Connolly says that a person
who cultivates a small back yard lot
can do as much for food conservation
as the country farmer IL he will cult,
waite intensively, and can or preserve
every thing that cannot be consumed
Immediately.
1t Is expected that canning clubs
will be organized soon, and that ev-
cry housewife in the District will
be asked to contribute her bit to
ward making the Governments con-
servation program a success.
Demands Maximum Yield.
The urinary needs for successful
vegetable gardening on a small scale
are the same as those for gardening
on a large scale" declared Mr.. Con-
oily. and no matter how small a gar
den may Ne, its owner. by carefully
arranged rotations, can make every
available foot OF space vroduce Q
maximum yield"
He wishes to emphasize particular
ly the need of rotation Of crops, es'
pecially at this time when early veg
etables are being exhausted.
PLANT winter crops as fast as the
vegetables are consumed" Is Mr.. Con-
olly's advice. The maximum yield OF
gardens will be a determining factor
in The Times contest, he said.

A total OF sos, OOO, 900 has been col

than $4,000, 900 barrels, or upward of
1000. 100000 gallons. The highest
consumption on record was that of
1914. when $4,000, 900 barrels were
drunk. The next eleven days may
make up the difference.
Officials believe that these records
will stand for years because OF prohi-
bition and bone-dry legislation.
Threatened taxes caused an increase

experts say that Il e increase from

more than slightly the general rela-

and a new high record. Practically
the entire increase is on cigarettes.
In addition to all this, the tax re-
turns show that the American people
drank more wines, particularly do
niestic wines, than ever before, and
they ate more oleomargarine. ThiI
latter increase is ascribed to the high
cost OF living.

Official Reports of Air Fights.
Here is the official report Of an
other air fight which happened the
same day. Names and numbers only
are omitted:
Captain Blank, with three others OF
the same squadron, dived at a Ger
man aeroplane which they riddled
with bullets and drove down. Then
they saw four red Albatross Scouts.
and Captain Blank engaged one at
close range. Eventually the German
machine got into a favorable position
and Captain Blank Immediately put
his machine into a spin. On shaking
of the German he at once regained
height and dived at another scout
with whom he fought for a consid'
cradle time. He finally outmaneu-
vered his opponent and the hostile
machine crashed. Shortly he engaged
another machine OF the same type,
but he was shot through the wrist
and the top Of his control-lever was
carried away. Although in great
pain and flying at a disadvantage he
succeeded in landing his machine un-
damaged on our side Of the lines and

While this was happening at one
part of the front another battle was
taking place at another only a short

Senator Gore. Chairman OF the Com
mittee on Agriculture. assailed the

been strung together without any
reference to the Constitution. He said
enorts were made TO treat the situa-
ton here as though II were the same
as that in England.
He pointed out that conditions
here were Numerically opposite to
the conditions in the allied countries.
because the United states was an ex-
porting country, while they were i'm
porting.
II understand this bill was drawn
by an attorney In one OF the depart
ments," said senator Gore.
Some people seem to think that II
comes 10 US in the handwriting Of
divinity and that the wrath OF heaven
will blast US II we venture to change
It.
Senator Gore expressed the opinion
that the bill should be materially
modified and made constitutional and
that II should provide for certain TIM
portant things on which all could
agree. He said there should be q CO.
ordinate purchasing agency for the
United States and the allies. He ia
vored penalixing the food gambler and
possibly some legialation on minimum
prices.
He pointed out that Herbert. C.
Hoover, when before the Committee
on Agriculture yesterday expressed
provisions Of the bill.

made constitutional, II not so, and
will be restricted to the real needs

Section 3 Of the bill, according 70
Senator Gore, would enable Mr..
Hoover, or his representatives., to com
pei a man who had ordered Tbone
steak at a restaurant to change his
order and make II round steak.
Senator Gore read a telegram from
a party in Texas protesting against
the BILL, and especially against pro
visions which would make possible
the closing OF the grain exchanges
and similar exchanges.
