RED CROSS TO GET CALF SALE
FUNDS

The plan recently originated to
hold a sale of calves at the' Denver
stock show and give the proceeds to
the Red Cross is reciveing the sup
port of Colorado stockmen. Some es-
Inmates of the number of calves
which will be donated are as high
as 1000.
The plan which was worked out
by Fred P. johnson. secretary of
the stock show, contemplates the as
sembling of calves at given points
thruout the state by Red Cross work
ers of various chapters. They will
be shipped to Denver in carload lots
and sold at auction The sale will
be held at the stockyards Jan. %.
A committee to have charge of
the sale has been named composed
of George F. Oxley. assistant to the
manager of the Mountain division
of the Red Cross; Charles G. Smith,
manager of Clay-Robinson Commits
sion company: Frank Benton of Ea-
gle county and Field Bonart of Ell
Paso county.
The calves will be collected and
shipped to Denver not later than Jan.
20.
1t is believed that the average
calf will bring $50 at the sale and
if the number is as great as the es-
innate 100000 will be realized from
the sale.
If weather conditions prevent the
shipment of calves from any part of
the state, local sales will probably be
held and the proceeds sent to the
Red Cross.

SHOULD DISCONTINUE THE DIS
BUTTON OF FREE SEED

A recent discriminating editorial
criticises the former policy employ
ed by some congressman to secure
votes. The practice referred to is
that of distributing small and
worthless packets of seed to consti-
tuents.
''The evils of the practice are
brought pointedly to our attention
by letter recently received from
a subscriber. He says that he re-
ceived a package of sweet corn from
his congressman~and that 8 per cent
of the resulting stalks were smutty,
while his own corn had only l per
cent of smut. while the smut might
have come from othre sources 1t
may have and quite likely was car
ried in the seed.
ut is a s.fage and sad sight to
see congressman pass law year af-
ter year appropriating large sums of
money to distribute worthless seed,
while the department of agriculture
is doing everything In its power to
urge the farmers to plant only seed
which is grown under their own
conditions.
We would suggest that when the
free seed bill comes up for considera-
tion that congress Immediately kill
it. If 1t must be spent for seed.

of agriculture for use where need

British Under Secretary Says Pressure Against Russia Will Be Con-
 tinued to the End

VLADIVOSTOK, Nov. 6.-Gen. Ro- sanoff, Russian commander, whose activities caused such great friction among the Allies in Siberia, has been recalled by the Russian Omsk gov ernment. Gen. Rosanoff caused Am ericans to be arrested and one of them 1ogged, for which he was com pelled to make an apology by Com mander Graves of the American forces. The Allies then asked his recall because of his troops making trouble in Siberia, but Kolchak re- fused iJ issue the order, and said Rosanoil should remain in charge of Siberian posts, Much correspondence has been exchanged since the refusal of Kolchak, and the latter has re- vel sed his decision by recalling Rosa noff.
