PEACH PITS FOR GAS MASKS

When the call was sent out from
Ames recently that the 5000 boys
and girls club members in Iowa were
to save peach pits and other fruit
pits and turn them over to the Red
Cross TO be forwarded to the gov
eminent for making gas masks that
soldiers wear in fighting Germans,
there was one girl in Jackson county
who got busy right away. She was
the first girl in Iowa to report what
she had done.
This one girl had gathered enough
pits TO make masks for eight soldier
boys. If every club member in the
state would do as we'll, it would not
take long until every Iowa soldier
overseas would be supplied with
mask that would save his life when
the poison gas of the Huns came to-
ward the Yankee lines.
1t takes but 200 peach pits or
seven pounds of nut shells to produce
enough carbon for a mask. Prunes
from the breakfast table, pits from
cherries, nuts gathered from the
woods by parties of school children
on Saturdays, all will help supply the
carbon needed. Another urgent call
has just been sent .,ut for more pits
or nut shells and it is up to the boys
and girls of Iowa to do their share.

ORGANIZING FOR BIG DRIVE.

That not even the flu" can keep
Iowa from going over the top i'll the

Rawson, state campaign chairman
for the big drive.
1.-The only effect which the quar-
antine will have will be to shift the
most intensive work to the last days
of the drive" Mr.. Rawson declares.
From present indications, the
quarantine will be all out of the
way in plenty of time for us
Mr. Rawson expresses the belief
that Iowa will back up its soldiers
and sailors to the extent of so per
cent oversubscription of the sum
asked by the seven war welfare asso-
Citations for the purpose of taking
care of them.
Iowa is all set for the big race and
has only been waiting for the tri-
umphant conclusion of the Fourth
Liberty Loan in order to fire the
first short, according to George
Viewer, who is leader of Audubon
county. The state has been divided
into Is districts, most of which have
completed organization machinery.
Iowa's share of the $40, 100000
fund to be raised in the United War
Work campaign is $4,610,0OO.

with the approval of President Will
son are asking for this sum, are the

WHO HAS THE BEST CORN
IN IOWA THIS YEAR?

II you want to know who has the
best field of corn in Audubon county
and in the state this year, get into the
acres corn contest which is being con-
Quoted by the Iowa Corn and Small
Grain Growers Association and the
County Farm Bureaus.
You may be the man to win the
big silver trophy cup, and it is
beauty.
The object of this contest is not to
see who can pile on the most fertil-
izer and spend the most time on
single pampered acre and thus Sc
cure the most abnormal yield. The
plan is rather to find out what farm
ers have grown the largest yields by
their regular methods of corn grow
ing. to learn what these methods
are. and to award the trophy to the
man who has grown the largest
yield under practical field conditions
and without knowing that he was in
a special contest.
ANY farmer who has a stunning.
good field of corn (and that means
most farmers this year, may enter
this contest any time during October
OF lll6 llISl nan vi NV ~ N''''
ing the County Agent, Paul Wolf and
stating that he wishes to get in. The
acre to be entered in the contest may
be selected from any field OF tve
acres or more on the contestants
farm. A committee of two disinter-
ested persons will be selected to
measure the acre and to weigh the
corn after it has been harvested. and
the award will be made on the basis
of the largest yield of dry, shelled
corn (l2 per cent moisture) and will
therefore be absolutely fair. Even
if you do not win a prize, it will be
we'll worth while finding out just
what the actual yield of your best
corn is.
For further particulars phone to,
or call on the County Agent at once.
An effort is being made to secure
also a county trophy to be awarded
to the grower of the highest yielding
acre in this county. If you do not
win the state trophy you might win
out in the county.
The name of the state winner Will
be engraved on the state trophy and
he will be given possession of the
trophy for one year and then return
it to the management, who will
award it to the winner for the sue
ceeding year.
