erning the handling and coasumption Of wheat put the farmer at tho very center of war service. Next to the soldier himself. he is serving the country and the- world and serving it in way which Is absolutely fInda- mental to his own future safety and prosperity. He sees this and can be relied upon as the soldier can.
 The farmer is also contriSutiD- men to the army, and am keenly alive 10 the sacrifices involved Gut If 13.S00.000 men engaged in farrl industries, 205,O00 have been drafted or about 1.4S per cent Of the whole number. In addition to these, thore have been volunteers. and the farm CTS have lost a considerable number of labOrers because the wages paid in industrial pursuits drew them away.

 Lynch arrived here recently from Hampton Roads, after a period of training in Canada with the royal fly ing corps. His home is in Lawrence. Mass.

 There is a harrassing discomfort caused by Eczema that almost be- comes a torture. The itching is al- most unbearable, and he skin seems on fire with the burning irritation. A cure from local applications of saives and ointments is impossible, because such treatment can only all lay the pain temporarily. The disease can only be reached by going deep down to its source.

 Bisbee district subscriptions repre- sent the individual pledges of hundreds of residents of the district, including the managers and higher officials O. the mining companies. the stores and their employees. the business houses and employees. professional residents and homes.
 Mining Men Liberal
 Employees of the mines of the dis trict are included in the reports of mine subscriptions. Shift bosses, min CTS and timberers. laborers of all char acters, are represented in the lists. They have come nobly to the assist ance of the Red Cross in their re- spOnse to calls for subscriptions, and women who have in charge the cam paign for funds in the district are more than liberal in their praise Of the mining men
 From the total of the months sub scriptions leaders have cuIled those subscriptions which are for more than one months duration. The result has been that the society is able now to estimate monthly income from pledg- es of approximately S25O9 This total is considered almost adequate for the work in the district Additions are ex- pected. however. and it is possible the total monthly income may be much above estimated figures to date.
