inspiration. Women of every race
and creed are its wards. The task
of the War Work Council is tremena-
Gus.
When the United States entered
the great war the Young Women's
Christian Association was, as always,
working among women. With the
call to new duties its members did
not abandon their old responsibilities.
The War Work Council was formed
as an emergency measure to take
care of the women who were caught
in some of the mazes of war, just as
the parent organization has taken
care of them through many years OF
peace. The varied activities decided
upon by the War Work Council fol-
low closely the needs of the differ
ent communities of the country. Sec
retaries trained in the methods or
the organization were sent out
broadcast. They we're instructed to
report to the National Board of the
Young Women's Christian Associa-
lions in New York the lines of work
which could be best followed in the
various localities. These secretaries
work in close cooperation with min
listers, women's clubs, chambers of
commerce, churches, military officials,
and charitable societies. The rec
ord Of a days doings of secretary
reads like a novel, an economic
treatise, and psychological essay
all compressed into a line-a-day entry.
A secretary sent out by the War
Work Council must be equal to any
emergency Miss Lillian Hull at Chill
licothe, close by Camp Sherman, hu1-
rying along the street 1t nightfall
came upon forlorn couple. A Fin
nish soldier had found job for his
wife, so that she might come on
from Cleveland. When she arrived
she was refused the place because
she spoke no English. Their money
had been all spent on the railroad
fare. and the soldier was due back
at Camp The situation was bad
Thanks to Miss Hull a Chillicothian
housewife now has an industrious
and grateful domestic, a soldier is
happy, and a soldiers wife is safe.
Amy folks often benefit even more
directly from the secretaries work.
In Bremerton, Washington, secre-
tary was accosted on the street by
sailor. She was slender woman,
and he had mistaken her for girl.
MAY l walk along with you?" he
asked.
Surely" she replied with mature
understanding and intuition what
is the matter? Are you homes1ck?'
The lads story came out with
rush. Yes, he was homesick, SO
hopelessly, despairingly heartsick that
he was on the verge of DESERVING.
But this woman gave him genuine
sympathy and encouragement She
saved him to his country.
From north, south, east and west
these pioneer secretaries sent in
their reports The appalling size OF
the undertaking was revealed to the
War Work Council. Standardization
of the work was the first STEP Out
of the multftudinous phases certain
lines of work were revealed.

In planning use of the silage it
should be remembered that il is a
roughage and not concentrate. Its
bulkiness prevents consumption of
sufficient digestable nutrients to in

usually by the use of concentrates
with the silage. The amount and kind
of concentrates must be determined by
their composition and market price.

STATE COULD SAVE
PSI $780, APO LBS. OF BEEF

Nearly a billion pounds Of skim
milk is produced in Missouri each
year, according to the 1910 census.
This milk could make $3.50, 1872
pounds of cottage cheese on the basis
of Is pounds of cheese to 100 pounds
of milk. This amount of cottage
cheese is equivalent in protein value
to 251 1928, APO pounds of beef. If the
cottage cheese could be manufactured
and would be consumed without waste,
it would be equivalent, from the view
point of food production, to an in
crease of 475,138 head of beef cattle,
or approximately 81 per cent increase
over the number of beef cattle in Mis-
souri, in 1910.
The value of the beef at 80 cents u
pound that could be saved by substi-
tuting cottage cheese made from the
skim milk would be SIS, SAT, 026. these
figures were taken from data COM
piled by the United States Department
of Agriculture to further the manu-
facture and consumption of cottage
cheese. Mrs. E. H. Hughes, who is
stationed in the University of Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture, has been
assigned to Missouri as special
agent of the department in cottage
cheese work.

DESTROY BERRY CANES
ATTACKED BY ORANGE RUST

Orange rust is one of the most COM
mon diseases of blackberries and
raspberries. 1t appears early in
spring on the young leaves of the
plant. Very early the young leaves
appear somewhat folded and deformed
and on the upper surface minute
black bodies are produced. A little
later as the leaves further expand, the
under surface is covered with an
orange colored material. These areas
soon break open and mass of orange
colored spores of the fungus are set
free. The affected leaves are dwarfed
and more or less curled. The rust is
rarely found on canes. The diseased
leaves gradually fall off and the di-
sease seems to disappear during June
and July. The affected plants are no
ticeably stunted but are rarely killed.
according to Geo. M. Reed of the
University of Missouri College of Ag-
riculture.
The fungus which causes the orange
rust lives from year to year in the it's
sues of the raspberry and blackberry.
1t continues to develop throughout the,
growing season. Affected plants are
almost certain to show the character
istic symptoms of the disease on the
leaves in early spring, which is the
conspicuous stage of the rust. The af-
fected plants rarely produce any
fruit of value. The number of infect
ed plants varies greatly. In some cas-
es the disease is so serious as to prac-
tically ruin the crop.
The only known remedy for this d.
sease Is to dig up and destroy the af-
fected plants as early as possible.
Careful examination of the plants dur
ing May will clearly show the presence
of the diseased plants. These should
be promptly removed.

PEACH LEAF CURL
CONTROLLED BY SPRAYS

Peach-leaf curl is one of the COM
monest diseases of the peach. 1t is
characteristic in its appearance, and
shows up strikingly during May. The
disease really appears early in the
spring when the leaves begin to ap-
pear. The young leaves become curled
or folded. The leaf blade is thickened
in certain parts and this causes curl
ing of the leaf. The thickened areas
become yellowish with a tint of red,
and little later, the leaves become
quite brittle and show a silvery bloom
on the upper surface. The curling
| may be confined to small area or
the whole leaf may be affected. The
leaves finally die and drop from the
tree. In serious infections the tree
may be practically defoliated and the
new buds begin to develop and form a
new set of leaves during the summer.
The twigs also are affected to GER
tain extent. They arc somewhat swol-
en- and stunted.
The disease is serious because of the
loss of the leaves in the spring. This
results in forcing second growth of
leaves the same season and a loss of
vitality to the tree. Killing of the
twlgs is also damaging
Peach-leaf curl is caused by a fun
gus. The full life history of the fun
gus is not fully known and the time
of infection still remains unsolved.
1t is probable, however, that the
spores produced on the diseased
leaves in the late spring remain dur
ing the summer on or beneath the bud
scales and the next spring the spores
terminate on the young leaves and
adjacent tissues.
After curl appears on the trees,
nothing can be done to prevent dam
age at that time. 1t is of no use to
spray with any fungicde. The grow
'er should know, however, whether the
disease occurs and take proper steps
to control it during the winter and
very early spring. The disease can
be prevented by spraying the tree
late in the winter before the buds be- |
gin to swell in the spring. A thor
ough spraying with the fungicide at |
that time is recommended by the |
University of Missouri College of Ag-
riculture in controlling the disease.
Any good fungicide, such as Bordeaux
or lime sulphur, is effective.
Perhaps the best method is to use
commercial lime sulphur, about one
part to eight parts of water. This
vii! also be effective against San Jose
scale if that is present.
