Red Cross Requested
To Help AT Admiral

The State Board of Health of Mary
land has asked the Red Cross for CO.
operation in insuring the health and
sanitation of the whole outlying dis
trict about Camp Meade, through the
establishment of one of the Red Cross
sanitary units for whose activities
the Red Cross has an appropriation
of 100000
Twelve other States through their
health departments have asked the
Red Cross for similar cooperation.
The Red Cross announced that. four
of these requests have been granted:
For Virginia, Massachusetts, Georgia
and Ohio, where Red Cross sanitary
units have been established near the
army environments at Newport News,
Aver Atlanta and Chillicothe.
The Red Cross sanitary units are
designed to supply supplementary in
spectors, psychologists or public
health nurses to assist the State
Health Department staff, which in
most instances has been severity
taxed in order to insure adequate pro-
lection for the districts about the
environments without allowing its
routine work in other parts of the
State to lapse. Dr. John S. Fulton,
secretary of the State Board of
Health. said that arrangements for
placing one of these sanitary units at
the disposal of the Maryland depart
ment will soon be completed.
The Red Cross equipment for such
work includes five laboratory railroad
cars for emergency work in case of
epidemics. These cars are so dispos-
ed throughout the country that they
can be reached within a few hours
upon the request of any State Health
Department with which the Red Cross
is co-oDerating

SAVE YOUR OWN VEGETABLE SEED
Truck Growers and Home Gardeners
Would Do Well to Secure Their
Own Supply.

Home gardeners as well as truck
growers who find seed of favored
varieties difficult to secure or high
in price would do well to save their
own seed, according TO the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The saving of seed from beans, peas,
corn, peppers, okra. egg plant, squash,
eucumbers. muskmelons, and water
melons is very simple. the chief re-
quirement being to select seed from
good plants. Obtaining seed from to-
mato. radish, lettuce, kale, collards
cabbage, kohl-rabi. beets, carrots, and
mustard. while not so simple, is not
beyond the ability of any amateur
gardener.
A newly published Farmers Bulle-
tin, Saving Vegetable Seeds for the
Home and Market Garden" (No. SS4)
which will be supplied free by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. explains in detail how to
gather and cure seeds commonly need
ed by truck growers

Protection Proposed For Properly Of
Patriots.

The following from Enterprise,
Miss, Aug. % to the Manufacturer
Record, Baltimore, speaks for itself:
The war has already divided the
nation into two classes. those on the
one hand who realize that IL calls for
sacrifice and who are willing to sacri-
fee their individusl interests, their
lives, if need be for their country. On
the other hand the profiteers, as they
are called in England, who see in this
war merely an opportunity to enrich
themselves at the expense of their
country.
But there is another class or sub
division of this latter class, who
see and are prepared to take sdvant-
age of the opportunity to enrich them
selves at the expense of those who
are absent fighting their fight for them
in France. Many a good man and
true hesitates to volunteer to go to
the war and leave his property at the
mercy of these ghouls and hyenas.
Now, could We not start in
every community a Patriots Pro.
tective Association" to lock after the
interests of those absent with the
armyG The association could affix a
notice, This property is under the
protection of the Patriots Protective
Association, and offer small reward
for the arrest of those damaging or
trespassing on said property. Elderly
lawyers could do their bit by agreeing
to prosecute in such cases.
In communities where there is boy
scout organization one of the duties
of the scout patrol might be the in
spection of such properties, a duty
which, unless boy nature mas greatly
changed Of late, would be carried out
with much gusto, involving, as it
would, a state of war with the bad boys
of the town. In a thousand other
ways the association could, at very
little cost. protect the interests of
those who, as they are giving their
all to their country, are surely enti-
tied to protection from the commu-
nifty.
You may not be your brothers keep
er, but when your brother has gene
forth to war for you, the least you
can do is to keep bis lands and goods
from thieves.

WAR EXPERIENCE
EMPHASIZES NEED
OF Specially Trained Red Cross Nurses
Scholarships Offered.

Announcement was made this week
by the Town and Country Nursing
Service of the American Red Cross of
a series of Public Health Nursing
Scholarships. donated by chapters
and individuals as special war gifts.
Miss Fannie Clement. Director of the
Bureau. made the following state
ment:
THE war experience of Europe has
emphasized the social need for care
fully trained nurses. who by educa-
ton and temperament. are prepared
for the patriotic service of watching
over the health standards of a whole
community. The scholarships of $3.50
each that We now offer cover an eight
months course in public health study
at Columbia University. New York
City; Simmons College. Boston.
similar course is offered at the School
OF Applied Social Science. Western
Reserve University. School of Nursing
and Health. University of Cincinnati
and the School of Civics and Philan-
thropy. Chicago.
The sum of $3.50 is hardly suffici-
ent, of course, TO cover the expenses
OF the course Each nurse, receiving
a scholarship, will be privileged
where necessary, to utilize the Stu
dent Loan Fund of the Red Cross to
an amount equal to the scholarship.
The lean fund was established sew
eral years ago in order that nurses
might be trained for Red Cross work
in rural communities Many of the
nurses so trained are now rendering
invaluable service, both in commun-
ity and reconstruction work in France,
and in the public health work in the
zones around environments.
AT this time, when the nursing
profession is giving so generously of
its talent to the base hospitals abroad,
it is important that the profession
strengthen itself in order that it may
more extensively participate in the
civilian relief at home and in the for
eign field We need young women to
go into the hospital training schools.
And we need graduates from the hos
pital training schools. who will fit
themselves for social service

The u. S. S. Wolverine
Oldest Ironclad Doing Her Bit.

Riding at anchor off Chicago's lake
front and looking spick and span
despite her seventy odd years, the U.
S. s. Wolverine, formerly the Michi-
gan, the oldest ironclad warship in
the world, is doing her bit by serving
as q receiving ship for the Great
Lakes jackies, and at the same time
doing considerable in the way of
stimulating patriotism of the people.
1t will be rs years on November OF
next year since the Wolverine, as the
vessel is now known, was launched
at Erie, Pa. The vessel was built in
Pittsburgh and shipped to Erie on
wagons. In the early days of her
career many Indians chiefs were en-
tertained aboard her and made to see
the error of their ways. During the
war the vessel guarded several thou
sand prisoners on Johnson's Island, in
Lake Erie. 1t was during this period
that plot was laid by the Confeder-
ates to capture and convert the war
ship into a commerce destroyer as
we'll as to attempt the bombardment
of some of the lake ports The plot
was discovered in time to prevent its
execution and the vessel was saved
OF a type of warship that has long
passed to the junk heap, the Wolver-
inc was the best that could be built
in her day During her active serv-
ice she carried a battery of II guns
and a-erew of 100 men, The old YES
sci is still in fair shape, and if ne
cessary perhaps could easily sink any
thing afoat on the lakes with few
shots from her breech-loading rifles.
Frequent overhaulings have kept the
machinery and other equipment in
good repair.
