gather it and take it to the junk deal
er for you and the drivers will turn
in the slips to the Red Cross A little

put together. Look around and you
will be surprised to see how much you
can find.

automobile parts, kettles, etc. Copper,

ware, wire, etc. Brass, electric light
fixtures, old clock works, vases, etc.

ESTIMATES HUGE
~ '''' ~ CROP 1R0 P OF WHEAT
65O,00O,0O0 Bushels Winter
Variety May Produce Against
418,O7O,OO0 for Year 1917.

Washington, D. c., May 1O.-Con-
tinued reports throughout April have
given indications that today's winter
wheat forecast based on conditions
department of agriculture at '2:15 p.
M, would show large increase over
the 560,000,000 bushels estimated in
April. Private estimates within the
last week have placed the prospective
crop of from 600, 100000 to $50, ,O00,-
900 bushels. Last year the crop
amounted to 418,O8O, 900 bushels, and
the largest crop ever grown was that
of 1914, when $4,000, 900 bushels were
harvested.
While the acreage OF winter wheat
was the largest ever planted, being
42,17O,OO0 acres, it was below what
the government expected. Adverse
conditions and shortage of farm help
were ascribed as the cause of the fail
ure to plant the 47,337 900 acres
planned by the government.
The abandonment of acreage as a
'esult of climatic and other winter
conditions was expected this year to
be much lower than the average.
Rye conditions on April / forecast
crop of $4,000, 900 bushels, compared
with 0,145, 900 bushels last year and
48,8162,O00 in 1916. That crop also
was expected to show betterment.
Hay production was 1880 900 tons
in 1917 and 110, 1892 900 in 1915. The
condition of meadow (hay) lands Nav
1st last year was 1877 and averaged
1876 in the previous 10 years. Stocks
# hay on farms May last wear
amounted to 1869 900 tons and ay-
eraged 12,212,O00 for the five year
period.
The condition of pastures Nav 1,
1917, was 81.9 per cent and showed
a ten-year average Of 85.5.
Spring planting last year was 58,7
per cent Of normal, and the 1O-year
average planting average was SIS.

Shortly after Americas entrance in
to the world conflict the American Red
Cross, through it's war council ap-
pointed by the president, asked of the
American people one hundred million
dollars, as their first contribution to
the war fund. That war fund had been
decided upon as necessary to carry
through the broad plans of European
and American war relief on the scale
that their need justified.
The money contributed at that time
will have been all expended by early
this summer and the accounting of
this expenditure, audited by the gov
ernment, has been given the widest
publicity.
Every transport carrying Ameri-
can soldiers abroad is to have on
board representatives of the home
service section of the American Red
Cross to look after the comfort of
the departing men, according to the
announcement of Frank w. Persons.
director general of the department of
civilian relief of the Red Cross.
"These home service men," said Mr..
Persons, "will have two-fold oppor-
tunlty ana duty: First, to learn, ny
personal conference, the anxieties of
the soldiers on board and to forward
knowledge of these to our department,
and, secondly, to send communications

are not told very long in advance that
they are to go abroad, as this is not
