Fall Flowing Will Help Keep insects
From the Crops

"One of the best methods of deter
ring insects from injurious attacks is
fall plowing or other ways of fall cul'
tlvating," says Charles R. Jones Of the
Colorado Agricultural College. ".The
process may be varied by disking, har
rowing or raking In cases of serlou
;nfestation, cross plowing is advls
aDle -.
The object of fall plowing or cult
walton is to bring the alternating In
sects to the surface of the soil whert
they will be exposed to climatical con
ditions, changes and natural enemies
This method is particularly advantag
eous in controlling insects which nj,
hernate under or near the surface o,
the soil in open fields. and Is especial
ly recommended for cut-worms, army
worms and grasshoppers, as 1t vii
prevent the recurrence of severe at
tacks of these pests. In Localities
where the above mentioned pests have
been extremely troublesome. the lane
should be thoroughly broken and loos'
enei and the existing stage. (egg
larvae, pupa or adult) exposed as
much as possible. Uniform plowing tc
a depth of six inches will prevent the
emergencc of adults

Red Cross Linen Shower

The Red Cross Commission of France has cabled that the hospitals are in urgent need of the following supplies:
 1,25O,O0O bath towels
 2,50O,OOO hand towels
 1,750,00O handkerchiefs
 125,000 napkins
 650,OOO sheets
 It is exceedingly difficult to secure these articles in large quantities in the open market and so it has been planned to have a Linen Shower.
 Each family is asked to contribute one of the above articles or a set of articles from their reserve stock in- stead of purchasing through commer- cial channels. The articles wanted should be new or substantially new and should be of strong rather than fine texture. The laundering facili- ties abroad are poor and this with the constant usage of these articles makes it clear that we would not be justified in using the much needed shipping space to send over anything but strong and durable articles. Every article thus contributed will be used in the hospitals whose equip ment and facilities are being sorely tried.
 The allotment for the Litchfeld chapter is
 625 bath towels
 1250 hand towels
 875 handkerchiefs
 75 napkins
 300 sheets
 Look over your reserve stock and find out how much you can give, not how little, and be ready when you are asked for yoar contribution so that we can do our share toward Litch- field Chapters allotment.
