vitality very rapidly and it is not safe
to hold seed for planting purposes for
more than two seasons.

ADD TO OUR MEAT SUPPLIES
Quickest and Cheapest Way Is to In
crease Poultry and Egg Produc-
ton-Eat Less Meat. fH

The quickest and cheapest way of
adding to our meat supplies is to in
crease poultry and egg production. To
double this production next year will
give us 6,500,0O0,000 pounds Of meat
food in the form of poultry and eggs.
BY having this amount of poultry food
for domestic consumption we will eat
less pork and beef, and can send al
most that many pounds of meat to Eu-
rope. We cannot increase any Of the
meat animals as rapidly or economical
ly as poultry.

not upon their action on the worms.
Other things being equal, pig In
good condition Is better able to re-
sist the attacks of worms than one that
is not In good condition. Mineral mix
lures may, therefore, by helping to bal
ance the ration, tend to increase the
powers Of resistance to the Ill effects
OF worms and other parasites. They
should, however, be classed as tonics
or conditioners rather than as worn
preventives or destroyers.
Santonin, which was formerly wide
ly used as remedy for worms in hogs
Is practically unobtainable at the pres

SUCCULENT FEED IN WINTER
Cost Not Exceeding That Of Shock
Ing and Husking.

Silage Is the best and cheapest form
in which succulent feed can be pro-
vided for winter use. An acre of
corn can be placed in the silo at cost
not exceeding that of shocking, husk-
ing, grinding and shredding. Crops
can be put into the sllo during wealth
er that could not be utilized in max
ing hay or curing fodder. There is
less waste in feeding silage than in
feeding fodder. Silage is very pala-
table and like other succulent feeds
silage has beneficial effect on the d.
gestive organs. More stock can be
kept on a given area of land with sill
age.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Intestinal worms are common in
hogs and are particularly injurious to
growing pigs. Insufficlently fed, neg
lected pigs living In dirty pens and
yards, fed from filthy troughs, drinking
contaminated water, bathing in old hog
wallows, and roofing and sleeping In
manure piles and stack bottoms soon
become infested with worms. Such
pigs do not thrive, but develop into
pot-bellied, profitless runts. Pens
should be kept clean and dry and the
manure frequently removed.
Mixtures containing charcoal, cop
peras, etc., are believed by some to be
of value as preventives and destroy
ers of worms, but their usefulness
probably depends upon their general
effect on the condition of the pig and

The tonic Of the cold is to be thank
ed for much Of our progress. North
erners, obliged to stand it for months,
get the habit of industry and resource
fulness; they have learned how to
clothe themselves, to defy the weather
and even to enjoy 1t. Inasmuch as
there are not enough furs on the mar
ket to put fur garments in the reach Of
everyone, and because the manufac-
ture of fur clothing involves much
time and work, which mean expense
the looms have been called upon to
weave substitutes which provide as
much warmth as the pelts of animals.
OF course wool Is our great depend
ence in putting up defenses against
the blasts of winter.
The supreme achievements against
the cold are voluminous coats of fur,
or Of cloth lined with fur. Next to
these are fur fabrics and cloth woven
to insure warmth. Coats made of
these and trimmed with big collars
and generous cuffs of fur make their
wearers rejoice in winter and the vigor
that is its gift. 1t is a tonic only bit
ter to those who do not know how to
keep comfortable, or have not the
means to.
Illustrated above Is a coat for the
heart of winter. 1t might be devel-
oped In many of the fiat furs and trim

Is made of handsome seal plush. Its

The business Of the American Red
Cross is ITO aid in the prevention and
alienation Of human suffering in
times of peace and war" 1t was origi-
nally organized to supplement the med
ical services of armies In times of war.
When the American National Red
Cross, by act of the United States con-
gress, approved January s, 1905 was
Incorporated and placed under govern
ment supervision, its purposes-in ad-
dition to It's duties in times Of war
were declared to be: ITO continue and
carry on system of national and
international relief in time of peace
and apply the same in mitigating the
sufferings caused by pestilence, fam
inc, fire, floods and other national ca
lamities." This organization has there
fore a great work to do at all times !;
for there Is always human suffering to
be alleviated, but now that the world
Is racked with war, it's work Is ire
mendous, and 1t Is doing 1t In way
that should make every man. woman
or child who belongs to the Red Cross
proud to be a member. 1t is the only
hope of thousands of suffering human
beings and stands between them and
cold hunger, sickness and despair. 1t
is the instrument by which each one of
us may make himself useful; our only
means of extending helping hands to
the innocent victims of the war.
No one can start the new year in a

for new members In time of war the
Red Cross chapters handle their ac-

tivlties through various committees.
They undertake to raise and collect
funds; to manufacture hospital gar
ments and supplies to take charge of
transportation and supplies; to aid
families Of soldiers and sailors and
their widows and children; to train for
and assist In securing self-supporting
positions for those permanently Grip
pied or blinded. In any one Of these
lines OF work women have proved
themselves efficient. The manufacture
of hospital garments and supplies Is
left almost wholly to them, while men
handle the matter Of raising and col
lecting funds and taking charge Of
transportation.
The work In hand just now calls for
special activity In securing new men,
bers. The business men in any COM
munity are the ones to undertake the
planning and carrying out Of cam
paigns for increased membership in
the Red Cross. In cities of consider
able size good work is often done by
creating a rivalry between men In va
rious lines OF business the grocers I'M
dertaking to secure a greater number
Of members, for instance, than the dry
goods men-or employees Of one house
entering into friendly competition with
those of another house In the same
line of business. An able business man
at the head of drive for new men,
bers will be able to engineer 1t in the
most practical and efficient way
House to house canvassing for new
members is about the most thorough
going method.

MORE AND BETTER PASTURES
Good Results Obtained by Clipping at
Ohio Station--Ripening of Weed
Seeds Prevented.

More and better grasses were noticed
to result from clipping pastures after
harvest in survey made by the Ohio
agricultural experiment station. Bril-
ers are removed and the ripening of
weed seeds is prevented, so that the
grasses and clover have greater
chances for growth. Where the now
ing machine cannot go, a scythe may
be used.

One of the best ways to be insured
against high prices for food is to raise

Miss Helen Fraser, author and cele- Arzted lecturer, of London, England, Is to come here for a free public lec- ture in the town hall at o'clock next Monday evening, June B.
 Miss Fraser's presence in America at this time is due to the interest of President MacCracken, of Vasar Col lege. in securing a woman who had distinguished herself in war work in England, to lecture and hold confer ences at the principal Women's Col reres. It has been necessary to ar range for an extension of her time in America in order to meet the tre- mendous demand for her services tror every part of the country.
 Miss Fraser comes to Norwich at be tuvitadon of the Women's commit
