Weather of Next Ten DAYS
Important Question to
Farmers.

The weather for the next ten DAYS
will go a long way toward determining
what the wheat crop OF UmatiIIa coun-
ty is to be. II IL continues as 1t has
been for the past two or three days.
even if there should be no more rain,
there will be~a very fair crop harvest
ed. though IL will be belew normal
what is called a lean year.
The new acreage in the county will
go a long way toward making up any
shortage there may be in the total
yield of the county.
In some parts of the county known
as the dry section there are large
fields that will not pay to harvest, but
along sids of these fields are others
that will have a very good yield, so
that it cannot be said that any one To-
eality has total failure.
In the meantime preparations are
going ahead for harvest, and inquiz
ries are being heard for harvest
hands Farmers want to get their
with everything in readi-
ness for an early harvest.

SPENT.
No Part Of It, Says John D. Ryan,
Went for Any Expenses Of
the Organization.

John d. Ryan, vice chairman Of the
War Council, recently discussed the
disbursements Of the first 500, 0OO, 900
American Red Cross fund and spoke
Of the necessity for further funds.
He announced that the week set apart
for the drive. is May 20 to p.
1--WE have collected sos 900, OOO, -
said Mr.. Ryan. 1--WE have allowed
refunds to chapters-as you know,
chapters are entitled to retain Is per
cent of the collections covered by the
chapter. They have not in all cases
availed themselves, of the rs per cent,
but we have allowed $17,OO6,121 on
this account. We have appropriated
to date 77,721. 918 and we have avail
able for appropriation on March 1
$10.371,217. with the addition Of 3d.
100000 we know to be perfectly good
when called upon.
"rhe appropriations have been
made to the different countries as fol-
lows: France. $3O.936, 1903; Belgium,
$2,0S8,131; Italy. $3.5Ss. s26; Russia,
81 .243,845; Rumania, $2,678.36S; Ser
via, 1915, $50; Great Britain, 1885,
$50, including $1,000, 900 that was APP
propriated by the War Council to the
British War Relief. and for other for
eign relief work, $3.576,3OO.
"For relief work for prisoners we
have expended $343,3O4, and this
work is only beginning. These appro-
priations have been made to care for
the prisoners that we feared might be
taken. We also spent for equipment
and expenses of Red Cross personnel
sent abroad $113,S00; for army base
hospitals In the United States, 1884,
600; for navy base hospitals In the
United States, $4,000; for medical
and hospital work In the United

In camps In this country, $4O3, 900; for
camp service In the United States,
S6,451, $50, and miscellaneous In the
United States, $1,11S,74S. We have
funds restricted as to use by the
donors amounting to $3.50, 400, and
we have as working capital for the
purchase of supplies for resale to
chapters or for shipment to France
Of S15.OO0,0OO. We have working cash
advances for France and the United
States Of $4,2S6,0OO.
"PeOple say we use 90 cents to.
spend dollar. The expenses of the
Red Cross today are well within the
amount Of money provided by men,
bership fees. No part Of the sos, OOO,-
700 that we got Is spent for carrying
on the work."

THAT SILVER BILL

Many persons have a mistaken ide
about the new silver bill just passed
by congress placing the government
price at one dollar per ounce. The
government has placed the minimum
price of silver for coinage purposes
at one dollar per ounce, but this
doesn't prevent the silver producer
from selling his silver to private par
ties at a greater price. Neither do
we understand that the govern
ment is confined to this price should

The strikes and riots of the mass

q radical readjustment in society is
