VICTORY HAS BEEN WON, BUT
RED CROSS STILL HAS MUCH
WORK TO COMPLETE

The following message from the
War Council of the American Red
Cross has just been received at
Northern Division headquarters:
= On February 10 last year, nearly six
weeks before the United States de-
clared war, National Red Cross head
quarters advised it's Chapters to pre-
pare for war. That which has followed
in the record of the Red Cross in
helping to- win this war and to relieve
the suffering growing out of it, consti-
tutes something of which every Am
erican citizen has right to be proud.
Every American Red Cross worker
must feel a sense of gratitude in hav-
ing had a share in it all.
"But even with peace, let no one
suppose that the work of the Red
Cross is finished. Millions Of Ameri-
can boys are still under arms. Thous-
ands of them are sick and wounded.
Owing to the shortage in shipping, it
may take year or more to bring our
boys home from France. Whatever the
time, our protecting arms must be
about them and their families over
the whole period which must elapse
before the normal life of peace can
be resumed.
"Our soldiers and sailors are en-
listed until the COMMUNICATIVE Chief
tells them there is no more work for
them to do in the war. Let every Red
Cross member and worker show our
returning soldiers and sailors that
to care for their health, welfare and
happiness, we are enlisted for no less
period than they are.
"The cessation of war will reveal a
picture of misery such as the world
has never seen before, especially in
the many countries which cannot help
themselves. The American people will
expect the Red Cross to continue to
act as their agent in repairing broken
spirits and broken. bodies. Peace
terms and peace conditions will de-
termine how we may best minister to
the vast stricken areas which have
been narrowed by war, and in this
great act of mercy, the heart and
spirit of the American people must
continue to be mobilized through the
American Red Cross.
"On behalf of tk War Council, we
accordingly ask each member of our
splendid body of workers throughout
the land to bear in mind the solemn
obligation which rests upon each one
to carry on We cannot abate one
instant in our efforts or in our spirit
There will be an abundance OF work
to do, and specific advices will be CIV
en-, but even at the moment of peace,
let no Red Cross worker falter.
"Our spirits must now call us to
show that it is not the roar of cannon
nor the blood of our own. alone that
directs our activities, but that a great
people will continue to respond great
~ and freely to its obligation and OPP
portunity to serve mankind"

INJURED MEN WITHIN 300
MILE RADIUS WILL BE SENT
TO FORT SMELLING HOSPITAL

Fort Smelling base hospital is to
serve wounded men returning from
France whose homes are within 800
mile radius of the reservation, ac-
cording to plans announced by the
War department at Washington.
Accommodations for all wounded
soldiers are to be reported within an
equal radius from their homes or
relatives throughout the United
States, according to this plan.
To this end base hospitals have been
turned over to the surgeon general
providing seventy-fiye hospitals with
facilities to care for 104 ,231Smen, ac-
cording to the Washington dispatch,
and $4,000 men are expected to be
sent to these institutions within the
next four months. aS

The inclusion in the estimates, how
ever, of five items of pay with a nom
inal appropriation of 500 each asked
shows that the whole question OF the
strength of the army after the con-
clusion of peace has been deferred
and that supplemented estimates are
to be expected under these headings
when it is possible to present a com,
pleted project.
The items thus held in suspension
are those providing for the pay of re-
serve and national guard officers ano
men.
The naval estimates are framed on
an exactly opposite theory. Every pro,

cruisers and 40 other fighting craft
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1918-12-05

The remainder of the $434, 100000
would go to complete ships of the first
three-year program.
Secretary Daniels has renewed also
the naval emergency fund item under
which Congress appropriated $780,
100000 last year to provide for the
construction of additional destroyers,
submarine chasers and other special
craft and to expedite construction
work. This year, however, the depart
ment asks for $175 100000.
The total appropriation for the navy
is estimated at 1884 100000, an in
crease of approximately billion dol
lars over appropriations m,de, for the
current year. The pay of the navy
item stands at ,946,O00 against
$227,372,946 this year. Similarly
$155, 286,000 is asked for the marine
corps against 1888, 900 this year.
Just what reductions in naval esti-
mates were made following the sign
ing of the armstice with Germany,
which ended hostilities, is not dis

A. d. WILSON SAYS THAT
MINNESOTA MUST HAVE, AN
AGRICULTURAL. PROGRAM

With victory comes a new 0utlooI
and new responsibilities. While we
rejoice we must prepare to meet new
needs. A great American problem to.
day is to Immediately provide for g
hungry world by securing greater fooo
production and conservation, and tt
promote the national welfare by Sc.
curing better organization of oul
agriculture.
To be prepared to cope with such ar
engaging problem every loyal and
public spirited citizen of Minnesota is
hereby asked to cooperate with his
County Farm Bureau organization in
determining and supporting All "Agri-
cultural Program" for his county, that
will best meet local and National
needs.
The membership in Farm Bureau
organizations in Minnesota at present
representing 10000 families should be
increased Immediately to not less than
100000 for the coming two year per-
iod. Such body of united persons,
publicly interested in agriculture, will
insure constructive action on prob
lens as they arise. X
Accordingly each County Farm
Bureau organization is hereby urged
to Immediately organize and conduct q
campaign with view to having rep
resentative of the Farm Bureau visit
every person who should be interested
in agriculture and country living. The
representative should explain the
achievements of the Farm Bureau
during 1918 and methods of work, and
give every person visited an oppor-
tunity to become a member.
The period of December End to 7th,
1918, is hereby designated and de-
clared to be "Farm Bureau Member
ship Week in Minnesota" in which
it is urged that general enrolment OF
members be conducted.
Great as have been the demands of
war upon our agriculture, it is certain
that the coming of peace will greatly
increase rather than lessen our food
obligations. This is especially true of
livestock and livestock products.
Practically every country which has
been engaged in the war, as well as
neighboring neutral states, will be
clamoring to America for food. This
will be particularly true of the Central
Powers, and we should be willing to
exchange food for the right kind Of
peace. It is estimated that in the
countries that are short of food, there
are approximately 300,000,000 people
or three times our own population.
Moreover, there are many millions
of acres devastated in France, Bel
gium. Servia, Poland, Armenia, and
other regions, where seed supplies,
farm machinery, and nearly all live
stock are destroyed. America, among
few countries only, has surplus of
such products and equipment. The
coming needs are so great, that for
the farmer the big task seems ahead
rather than one that has already been
accomplished.
The Federal Government through
the United States Department Of

Agriculture, early IN the coming year
will announce a program for meeting
the National Agricultural needs fol-
1919. In this, recommendation will
be made as to what must be produced
to provide for the Nation itself and
fulfill it's food obligation to othe,
countries.
The object of the campaign is such
as to justify an appeal for the aid OF
the general as well as the farming
public:
1. Farmers, their families and or.
CARNATIONS are asked to enlist in this
organized movement to carry out the
Government, State and County Agri.
cultural Program.
2. Women of the state are asked
to give effective service by systematic
and unified effort in food production
such as gardening, poultry raising
dairying, and orcharding, and in safe.
guarding through economical use the
Nations resources, especially food
textiles, fuel, and the health of all
citizens, as a part of the Agricultural
Program.
8. The attention of city people is
directed to the fact that the National
State and County Agricultural Exten.
sion Service for food production and
conservation is the machinery fol-
carrying out the Agricultural Pro.
gram. The city people should make
inquiry as to what has been done
through this service in 1918, and their
active support should be given the
plans for 1919.
1t is important in this campaign to
emphasize the New" Farm Bureau
1t should be considered not alone as
an organization to aid the work of the
county agent. Rather it should be
as becoming the officially recognized
agency, or institution, educational in
character, for cooperating with State
and Nation in meeting agricultural
needs, and in planning, administering
and directing all phases of Extension
work in agriculture and home econo-
mics in the county.
Never have results been achieved in
farm bureau effort as this year. The
farmers of the Nation are facing some
of the greatest responsibilities that
ever confronted them. 1t is crafty
ing that in the face Of this situation
the farm bureau movement has de-
monstrated it can assist in meeting
the big problems of the farmer in a
big way. The sum total of the work
of the year, when told, will be a
splendid tribute to the devotion of al
who have been allied with the move
ment.
Let us now prepare for greater
achievements in 1919.
Respectfully submitted,
A. D. Wilson,
Director Of Agricultural Extension
and Federal Food Administrator
for Minnesota.
