Rives Red Cross Notes.

The hen shower was quite a sue
cess and a nice sum of about $50 was
realized. Several colored people
gave hens and are so willing to do
their bit.
We have secured the school build
ing for work rooms now, and will
be more comfortable.
Those desiring wool and instruc-
tions along knitting may come on

A collection was taken last Fri
day night at the school play for the
Red Cross work, and as usual Rives
came up in the same patriotic spirit
with about $58.
Won't every woman that can do
so come to the rooms either on Tues
day, Wednesday or Thursday and
help work This is not work for any
individual but for a great cause, the
American Red Gross, without which
our boys, as we'll as others, would
suffer. We living at home in COM
fort can surely spare one afternoon a
week to help in this grand work.

Miss Griffin Leaves.

Miss Ruth Griffin left the past
week for her home in Union City
Tenn. She had been visiting her
brother and sister-in-law for some
three or four months. Soon after
her arrival we found that she was an
excellent singer and forthwith the
music committee engaged her to take
care of our leading soprano. She has
endeared herself to the whole
church. She has a we'll trained voice
and in addition knows how to sing
right from the heart. Our people
urged her to stay, but of course she
had to return. Our best wishes go
with her. We hope she may come
on visit again and when she does
she will find the doors of our church
and homes open to her.-Christian

Swiss Cattle.

The Swiss Federal Government

price at which farmers may sell cat
tie for slaughter as we'll as the prices
at which various qualities of butch
er's meat may be retailod. Farmers
may demand no more than 23 cents
per pound for first-class fat beef cat
tie. The price applies to cattle sold
on the farm. If sold in a city OF
other distant market cost of trans
portation may be added.
With the exception of sirloin and
fillet cuts, retailers may ask no more
than 40 cents per pound for beef

WAY More Sheer Cam be Raised.

The food committee at Washing
ton estimates world decrease OF
100000 head of sheep since the
war began.
1t requires the fleece of twenty
sheep for each man in the service.
The entire wool clip of the United
States, if suitable for military pur-
poses, would only clothe 100000
fighting men. Much of the American
wool is not suitable for army pur-
poses.
Every fleece of American grown
wool is direct contribution to in
creasing the shipping tonnage avail
able for carrying supplies to Europe.
Only ten per cents of the farmers
of the United States now keep sheep.
One eve to each three acres on one
fourth of the farms that have no
sheep would double the number now
in the country.
Tennessee has only $4,000 head
of sheep to-day. This represents a
decrease of twenty per cent since
1910. 1t would be possible to keep
one sheep on every three acres of i'm
proved farm land in addition to the
livestock already maintained. On
this basis, improved farm land in
Tennessee would care for 100000
head of sheep with a total value, on
basis of present prices, of $72,000,-
600.
The above does not take into con-
sideration something over 100000
acres of unimproved land, most of
which could be utilized as sheep pas
ture, and would support one sheep
to every six acres. This would give
us an additional number, approx
mately, 100000, or double our
present number.
Our Government says that mutton
and wool production in this country
can be increased greatly admits of no
doubt. This can be accomplished by
developing sheep husbandry on
farms, especially in the Eastern and
Southern States. Steps should be
taken in the East and South to do
away with the sheep-killing dog
menace by State or local action.
Large results can be secured by i'm
proving methods of breeding and
management on the range; by secur-
ing the restocking of improved farm
lands with sheep; by the larger use
of forage crops and pastures; by en-
couraging sheep and lamb clubs; by
the elimination of parasites; by pro-
lection against losses from predatory
animals; and by having lambs ready
for market at from 70 to 80 pounds
weight, thereby requiring a mini
mum of grain to finish them and
making possible the maintenance of
larger breeding flocks.

VICTORY GIRLS CLUB.

"A Victory Girls club is to be organ
lied which will consist of all girls un--

Girls, here is your opportunity to
respond to the call to service for our
boys over there. This is your first
and great chance to display to big
brother, fatehr, or sweetheart that he
left little patriot behind and the blue
victory button will be the badge OF
your patriotism.
To become member of the Victory
Girls club, which is national organi-
zation, earn and give by March first,
1918, five dollars or more. The money
will be used by the Y. w. C. A., or
the Blue Triangle, to give our boys
comforts which they could not other,
wise have. Even if the war is over
the money will be needed to keep
things going until everything is satis-
factorily settled.
The Camp Fire girls are charter
members of the Victory Girls club
and will be on the streets Saturday to,
give out subscription blanks to those
who wish to enlist. All those who en-
list on Saturday will be given blue

teered and not been solicited.
Be loyal and wear blue "V''.

COMMUNITY SCARES.

We, as communities, seem to enjoy
a good scare at proper intervals.
A good scare, not coming too often,
seems to serve as pleasing contrast
to everyday community existence.
And scares are good deal like
troubles-those most popular are
those that don't happen.
For instance, there is the annual
smallpox scare of every city. Yet how
few people ever have smallpox.
We have friend who used to hold
police court in Nashville, Tenn. He
says that with large negro popula-
tion they had at least three cases of
smallpox in his court room every day.
He further says that neither he nor
any of his court attaches ever take
any particular precautions against
contagion, except to keep themselves
clean and in a normal state of health.
Smallpox is rare disease and is
still more rarely communicated to
those living in an average state of
cleanliness.
Smallpox, an uncommon disease, re-
spends very quickly to a very simple
treatment and is less contagious and
leaves less in after-effects than meas
les or whooping cough, both common
diseases and which do not quickly re-
spond to treatment.
