November II Big
Red Cross Day

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. l0.--With
impetus gained from the first Of the
third Red Cross roll cah, Saturdays
enrolment throughout the southern
division was far in advance of any
previously reported, and according to
reports at present available the south
eastern states, which make up the
southern division of the Red Cross,
are maintaining their lead over the
rest of the United States, although
the Atlantic division, IN which is To-
Gated the city of New York, with its
greater population, is a close second.
Although the roll call began No.
vember /, many smaller chapters over
the country are planning to hold their
campaigns on armistice day, Novem-
ber II, and wind it up in short can
vass in which by thorough organiza-
ton every person in the community
may be given an opportunity to join
the Red Cross in a very short time.
j. M. Mcmillan, campaign manager
for the southern division, stated that
the returns, while incomplete, indi-
cate that a great many chapters have
secured more members in this roll
than in any previous campaigns. Due
to the rivalry between many chapters
in the division the great majority of
them have not rendered returns but
are holding their figures until they
can be sure that their competitors
will not take advantage of them.
All indications are that more than
as many members as have been en-
rolled during the past week will be
enrolled Monday and Tuesday. Ar
mistice day, November IL, will be
celebrated by the Red Cross cam
paigners as we'll and in conjunction
with the American Legion, which is
solidly behind the Red Cross drive,
it i sexpected that record-breaking
enrolment will be mace.
National headquarters of The Red
Cross has sent out an appeal to it's
to wear their membership but
tons and display their service flags
from now until the end of the cam
paign to avoid being solicited again
and again According to the plan of
the campaign, district Ines every
where will be dsregarded for the rest
of the campaign and "moppers up
will solicit every man and woman not
wearing a Button.

offers some suggestions that Lave
proved valuable.
The first calls for having stored
away somewhere in the car stack OF
old newspapers. When the car iets
stuck and the wheels fail to take hold,
feed in some of the old papers be-
tween the tires and the mud. Usually
only a few will have to be worked in
before the wheels will begin TO grip
and the ear start forward, This meth
cd of handling a difficult situation is
so simple and so uniformly success
full, that every motorist should know
of il and carry pile of old newspa
pers, unless he is equipped with some
other apparatus for such a contin
gency.
Here is the other method suggest
ed by the United States Tire Compa
ny: Put the car in low and II you
cannot feed the gas with your foo'
evenly, so that the wheels will re
volve slowly, put your emergency
brake on. DO not put it on so that the
wheels will not revolve at all. bu
tightly enough to keep them from re
volving rapidly. With the wheels
turning slowly, the maximum pull Il
delivered to them by having the ca
in low gear, and so long as they turI
slowly they can get the benefit Of th'
tremendous power
1t is not always wise to fill the hon
with stones or bricks, for their rougi
edges are hard on tires. Small

ACTUAL GAINS MADE
FROM CATTLE FEEDING
MONTGOMERY COUNTY FARMERS
MAKE REPORT ON TEST MADE
TO SHOW RESULTS.

Through the farm bureau Of the
Clarksville Chamber of Commerce the
following statement as published In
the .Leaf-Chronicle shows the actual
gains on cattle feeding:
A Montgomery county farmer, inter-
ested in diversified farming, has made
the following experiment In order to
show the actual gains to be made In
cattle feeding. The test was as fol-
lows:
There were twenty four head OF two
year-old cattle in this feeding trial and
they were fed seyenty-fve days and
made an average gain of two popnds
per day, making gain Of 140 pounds.
The cost of feeds were as follows:
cottonseed meal, 1900 pounds
at s295 ..... ...u. ...,$221 %
Middlings. 1000 pounds at So 5000
Rice bran, 1000 pounds at $3.50 5000
Hay, 1000 pounds at $3.50. 300

Profit of ...... ...... :. ...s1,155.75
This shows the money to be made
on feeding good grade cattle and the
farmer who feeds cattle is building up
his soil, while the farmer who Is not in
live stock is surely not looking ahead
with bis farming projects as he
should.
These cattle were kept well bedded
and this manure was NOT counted in
the net returns and is surely worth
$500 ON the farm.
