The above letter from Mr..
Richard Bebout, one Of Critten.
den County's leading merchants,
explains itself. The plan has
been approved bv the executive
committee of the chapter, and
we hereby appeal to the mef.
chants to co operate with us by
providing coops for the chickens
and to the women of the county
to bring in the chickens.
All Of the money from this
source will 20 into the local
treasury for buying materials to
be made up by our own women
for the soldiers.
The record of l,037 articles
made by our Crittenden county
women is very fine indeed. The
more money we can raise for
this work the faster we can pur-
chase material and make it into
needed articles for our boys.
Everybody take notice and
bring to the merchants a chick.
en- for the Red Cross.
II. r. SHORT,
Chairman Crittenden County
Chapter American Red Cross.
p. S.-You will note that the
date on which hens and pullets
can be sold, has been changed
from May 1st,. to April Goth.
The merchants will therefore
begin receiving for the Red
Cross on April 10th.

Price Regulation.
It is viewed as significant that the
President. in his letter, seeks to correct
ters that while the government has
sought to fix the price Of foodstuffs. it
has not sought to fix other prices which
determine the expenses of the farmer
agricultural circles that the farmers
have been neglected in respect to price
protection. On this point the President
goes directly at the matter, saying:
has actively and successfully regulated
the prices Of many fundamental materials
underlying all the industries Of the coun-
try and has regulated them not only for
the purchases Of the government, but
also for the purchases Of the general pub
lie, and I have every reason to believe
that the Congress will extend the powers
of the government in this important and
to proflteering which is showing itself in
too many quarters may be effectively
checked
government has sincerely tried to keep
the interests of the farmer as much in
mind as the interests Of the communities

mankind as well as the farmer. and every
thing in these times Of war takes on the
rigid aspect Of duty"
Appeal to Patriotism.
The Presidents conclusion il pitched
IN his familiar key of earnest appeal,
He has employed language in this let
ter that 1t is now recognized upon
study will carry 1t far as q summons
to duty:
you remember that it was farmers
from whom came the nrst shots at Lex

that made America free. hope and
believe that the farmers Of America
will willingly and conspicuously stand
by to win this war also

WOMEN WORKERS ARE PROVING WORTH IN
 HELPING SOLDIERS

LOS ANGELES. Calif, Jan. 10.-7 The War Camp Community Recrea- tion Service has been the means of creating a new bond between Amer can mothers, according to Mrs. Jos iah Cowles, president of the General Federation of Women's Clubs and a member of the national committee of the War Camp Community Rec reation Fund, who recently returned from a tour of the Gulf States.
 "The way the women of the com munities adjacent to the many camps in these States are opening their homes to the soldiers, as a part of the War Camp Community Recreation Service, is wonderful said Mrs. Cowles. "And the benefit to the nation is not alone in the improvement of the morale of the men in training, which is the prime object of the service, but in the sense of gratitude awakened in the hearts of the mothers in Northern States whose sons are the beneficiar- ies of this Southern hospitality. It is bringing the mothers of the North and the South together as nothing else has done."

USE MORE CORN!

COLUMBUS, O.. Jan. 4. The Ohio War Board says:
 Here are four reasons why wt must substitute corn for wheat which we are shipping to our sol diers and our allies:
 l. European mills are not equip ped to grind corn.
 ?. Corn meal shipped from Am erica to Europe will not keep.
 3. Corn bread will not keeI long enough to permit it to be carried from central army bakeries back of the lines to the men in tho trenches.
 4. The people of our allies tC whom we must send food, if wt are to win the war, are not ac quainted with corn as food, ant have not the means of grinding il or baking it.
 We must use more corn for food
 Corn bread can be made in vari ous ways.
 Here's very economical way Mix yellow corn meal with water adding salt for seasoning. Grease bottom of bread pan and pour corn batter on top of pan. Place in over 20 to 30 mintes. This will giv' you a thin corn bread which ma! be served by cutting in sticks.
