Estancia Chapter of the Tor
rance County Red Cross receives
letters from Denver each mail
telling of the need of more nurs-
es for the American army and
navy at home and most of all for
the boys ''over there"
Surgeon General Gorgas, unit
ed States Army, must have
5000 nurses for the army alone.
And it is the duty of the Red
Cross to supply them.
He must have 5000 of these
nurses by July l, 1918.
Do you realize: That the well
being of the fighting army de-
pends upon the size and efficiency
of the nursing army?
That in this call General Cor
gas seeks to conserve the health
and lives of our boys the health
and life of your own boy?
THE NURSE
She is the only woman who will
share the hardships the dan
gers and the privations at
the front.
She it is who must give all, even
her life. if necessary, for
your boy.
She it is who must stand in the
place of mother, wife or sis
ter when he is burning with
fever or shattered by she'll
She it is who must be you to him
at his sick-bed and at his
death-bed.
She it is who will catch the last
whispered message to you.
WHAT is YOUR PART?
To release for service in the
Army and Navy Nurse Corps, as
a pressing military necessity,
every nurse whose services are
not imperatively needed at home
This military necessity, de-
wolves directly upon every per-
son employing nurses where the
dictates of life or death or the
utmost physical necessity do not
demand them.
If you are employing a trained
nurse largely as a companion, it
is your patriotic duty to release
her.

HAVE YOU SAVED
THE EVE LAMBS :

1t has been known to happen that a
farmer has sent his ewes and lambs
to rarl'at at the same time giving an
rIet n q new flock of ewes, and
that after the ewes have been sub
jeerej to the culling necessary, the
2ne 6uacn with few additions have
been sent back to the original owner
and he has been well pleased with them
He has Of course paid for their eX-
cursion to the city.
Thousands Of eve lambs that have
come into the big markets this year
nave been shorn and sent back to the
country. The farmer who has beeh
making the practice of changing ewes
e,ery year or so is going to find that
it is awfully easy to sell this year and
hard to buy back. Often there is very
little wisdom in selling off a flock and
buying back another
Our present number Of sheep aver
aging only two to the farm, might
easily be doubled, thereby doubling
our wool crop. BY the use Of pure
bred rams instead Of the iow-grade
ones, it would be possible soon to dou-
bic the weight Of our wool clip, ".
may not hope for doubling the croE
next year, but with our own focks tc
draw from % per cent increase
should be accomplished.
No one argues that eve lambs arc
more desirable to keep than would be
yearling to four-year-olds, but The
situation is this; If we don't keep some
ewes we're going to run out of yea-.
lings.

ALFALFA IN TENNESSEE

You can't take a good picture Of
alfalfa as it is growing in the field
no matter how good the crop may bt
or how expert you may be as pho
tographer. This picture is really az
good as one ever sees, and yet the
alfalfa might be several things, as fai
as the reader of this paper can tell. II
is alfalfa, however, and 1t is growing
in Marion county. This field is owned
by one Of the demonstrators working
under the direction of the County
Agent. A demonstration, for those
who do not know, is a farmer who
agrees to follow the instructions Of
the County Agent in the growing of a
particular crop. He has certain records
to keep. Every now and then meet
ing is held on the demonstration land
People can see in that way just what
certain methods of farming will do and
what they will not do.
The picture is not printing plain here
but you can see how high the alfalfa
reaches up on the legs Of the farmers

Gapeworms destroy young chickens
By cutting thru the lungs, getting &C
cess to the lungs thru the thorax.
A chicken dies out in the field some
where or perhaps is buried The CAPE
worm, after the body of the chicken is
dissected, burrows out into the soil.
The female gapeworm lays her eggs in
the outer rings of the fish worms body
The old hen, running with young chick
lens. scratches out these worms for the
little chickens, and they greedily de-
flour the fish worms, gapeworms eggs
lind all Grit and the delicate muscles
pf baby chickens are not able to digest
the egg Of the gapeworm at the same
time the fish worm is digested. So the
egg Of the gapeworm passes thru into
The intestines where the juices dis
solve the egg and liberates ,the young
wcrm. The worms burrow thru the
fntestines and work back into the gull
let of the chicken, where If they are
not given attention, they will go thru
the thorax, gain access into the lungs
and destroy the chicken.
If chickens are taken in time, when
Aey first begin gaping, and the at-
fected chickens to the number of a
half dozen be placed in 24-pound pa
per flour sack, with tablespoonful of
air Stacked burnt lime, and shaken up
two or three times, the chickens will
usually sneeze the worms out. The
worms should be gathered on a paper
and burned.
The most practical way to control
eapes is to confine the mother hens In
ah A-shaped coop and allow the chick
ems free range. The chickens are not
strong enough to scratch out the
worms themselves, and the hens, be-
ing confined to coops, will not be given
p chance to scratch.

CHANCE FOR EVERY FARMER
TO TRAIN A BOY TO WORK

(By G. E. Alfred, Farm Management
Specialist Division of Agricultural
Extension, Knoxville, Tenn
Many farmers are in position to uss
boy help to advantage. Fruit farmers,
truck farmers, etc., can use them ex'
ceptionally well. The experience OF
last year shows that the average farm
er's prejudice against the city boy IA
not well founded. OF course, there are
boys and boys. But at least 1870 Of
the boys do good work--a part of the
other $50 we're with farmers who did
not have enough patience to give them
the preliminary training.
Every farmer should this year train
at least one boy to be farmer.
