Red Cross Notes

The campaign for clothing for the
people of the occupied portion OF
France and Belgium bids fair to ex-
coed expectations as the interest TAX
en- seems to increase daily. The chill
dren OF the Starr School contributed
"a great pile Of clothing which was
brought to the headquarters by one of
Captain Roberts army trucks. The
organized Girls Liberty Guards of the
High School has undertaken to make
a personal canvass of the city in or
der to call the attention of everyone
to the urgent demand for clothing The
quota Of tons is by no means a max
imum limit and the present indications
for reaching it should in no way les
sen the interest in the campaign be-
cause there is no possibility of over
supplying the demand. II the whole
country exceeds it's minimum quota, 1t
simply means that there will be less
suffering. 1t does not mean that all
will be comfortable. The campaign
will continue through next Tuesday.
Any inquiries will be answered over
telephone No. 1851.
Material for the new surgical dress
ing quota has come and is being pre-
pared for the workers, so that there
will be plenty to be done by Monday.
The rooms will be opened from then
on as usual. and workers are asked to
remember that Tuesday and Thursday
nights will be kept as formerly.

have good care if good results are to
be expected. Give them plenty Of
wholesome food at all times. Provide
dry quarters which are well ventilated.
Give them an opportunity to exercise.
And give them closest attention at
lambing time. Occasional inspection
and regular dipping is also essential
to insure freedom from lice, ticks and
skin diseases.
Good pastures are required during
the summer months which is of spe-
cial Importance during late summer
and fall when the lambs need to be
put in shape for market and the rest
of the flock kept in the best of condi-
tiOn for breeding. At this season of
the year the regular pastures usually
afford but little feed and that of in
feriOr quality. For this reason many
successful growers plant some forage
crop for this purpose. If sown alone
in early May and cultivated, feed
should be afforded by the latter part of
July, while, if seeded in corn from
July 1 to Is, should provide October
and later fall feeding as long as need
ed, much of the growth being made
after the corn is cut. One acre Of the
crop grown alone, or two acres with
corn, is usually sufficient to fatten
from 80 to 40 lambs if allowed the
run of other fields.
Sheep require relatively little atten
ton as compared with other kinds of
stock. but attention at lambing time
is very important. The lambing sea-
son is the shepherds harvest time,
and the size and quality of the crop
practically determine the profits. At
this time extra attention must be given
to the ewes and lambs and in no other
way can time be used to better advan-
tage on the farm.

Many bushels can be added to the
1919 Liberty wheat harvest, and farm
ers can reap added profits from in
creased yields with no more than the
usual labor or expense if the variety
Of seed sOwn this fall is pure and Is
well adapted to the locality. The seed
should be free from nOxiOus weed
seeds and not infested by destructive
plant diseases. 1t should be clean,
plump and heavy. If there is doubt
about what variety produces the best
yields In given locality the grower
should consult his county agent, state
agricultural college, or write to the
United States department of argicul-
ture, Washington.
Use me-erown Seed.
Home grown wheat should be used
for seed, wherever possible. The best
seed to get is that of an adapted vari-
ETY. which has been grown continuous
~ in the locality for some time, pro-
vided it is pure. The idea that varie-
ties run out" if grown long in one
fact that they are allowed to become
mixed and weedy and disease-infected.
Changing the kind of wheat grown
should be done only for the purpose
of getting proved better variety. 1t
is often desirable to do this, provided
1t is demonstrated beyond question
that the new variety is better for that
locality.
So-called new" varieties, extrava-
gantly advertised at fancy prices,
should be disregarded completely. The
varieties recommended by the state
experiment stations or other authori-
ties for the several districts within a
state or region are the ones which
should be grown. In Kansas, for ex-
ample, the Kanred, an improved strain
of Crimean wheat, is comomnly grown
in place Of the Turkey and Kharkov.
The introduction Of these hard red
winter wheats into the Columbia
basin of Oregon and Washington, and
elsewhere in the Pacific northwest has
increased yield and quality of the

are being displaced rapidly.
See Seed in Field.
The best way to be sure that the
seed wheat is free from mixture with
other varieties and also from weeds
and diseases is to inspect the growing
field. Each farmer should do this in
his own fields and neighborhoOd When

MONEY IN DOMESTIC SUMAC
Wild Plant, Needed in Tanning and
Dyeing Industry, Worth From
$3.50 to 81 Hundred.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Women and children on farms can
make good wages early this fall by
gathering and curing sumac as side
line. To assist in firmly establishing
the industry of gathering this wild
plant-a source of tannin used in tan
ming and dyeing-the department of
agriculture is soon to publish in bull
letin helpful suggestions to gatherers
and dealers. 1t is believed that the
possibilities of the sumac industry
have not been realized and that the
wars interruption of Sicilian importa-
tons makes the present an Opportune
time to place the industry on firmer
footing. The sumac plant is chiefly
abundant east of the Mississippi river
from Maine to central Georgia and
Mississippi.
Domestic sumac as now prepared for
market contains less tannin and is
much inferior in color to the imported
Sicilian sumac. When properly gath
cred and cured, domestic sumac leaf
contains from 25 to 30 per cent of tan
min, practically as much as the Sicilian
variety. Gatherers in this country in
recent years have received low price
for sumac-from so cents to S1.1O per
hundred pounds. Carefully gathered
and properly cured Sicilian sumac leaf
sells in this country at from $3.50 to
$4 hundred pounds.
Proper methods of gathering, curing
and handling sumac are explained in
the bulletin. The common domestic
varieties of sumac are described, so
that they may be readily recognized
and data on the comparative tannin
content are given, together with other
practical information on the subject.

or otherwise of good quality he should
inspect fields of adapted varieties
grown by some of his neighbors and
arrange to obtain seed from them after
threshing. In many instances he can
arrange to have special care given to
this field at threshing time in order to
prevent mixture. Such care is espe-
cially desirable this year, when the
supply of seed wheat retained on the
farms probably is smaller than ever
before.
Seeding with a drill always is advis-
able. In general, early seeding gives
better results than late seeding. Where
there is danger from the Hessian fly
the time of seeding should be in ac-
cordance with the best advice given
on this subject for each section of the
country. A chart showing the wheat
sowing dates to thwart the Hessian
fly may be obtained from the United
States department of agriculture at
Washington.

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
prominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
SO many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so com
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from report from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is

its remarkable record of success.
