FLOOD RELIEF COMMITTEE
RAISES s4S7.oS.

Acting under the leadership Of
Prof. j. p. Starks. principal OF Fred
Douglass. School and member OF the
Colored Welfare Board. Negroes Of
Dallas conducted drive last week
to obtain money for flood sufferers
at Corpus Christi and other devas-
tated places on the Gulf coast.
Eighty volunteer workers canvassed
the city and churches Saturday and
Sunday, collecting total OF $4S7.6I.
This money was turned over to May
or Frank w. Wozencraft Wednesday
by Prof. j. P. Starks and Mr.. ]. III.
Dixon. II Is to go into the general
fund subscribed by other groups OF
Dallas citizens. This sum by no
means represents the total amount
contributed by our people to this
worthy cause; a number OF them con-
tributed to white canvassers who
were ON the field before our commit
tee was appointed and before our
workers were sent out. Munger Ave
nue. Baptist church sent $500 to the
general committee of which Mr.. A. G.
Ebie is chairman.
Mayor Wozencraft expressed him
self as being highly gratified at the
result obtained from Colored citi-
zens In this drive. This. he said,
is evidence that our Colored popu-
lation is imbued with the Dallas
spirit and can be depended upon to
do their part in any emergency.

rogues which must be removed The
horse can be securely muzzled to pre-
vent injury other than that occasioned
by the tramping down of plants.
It is not profitable to rogue fields
which are intended for the production
of grain or forage, but in the pro6uc.
ing of seed, either for home planting
or the market, careful rougeing gives
returns both in dollars and cents and
in the satisfaction of growing pure
seed. Sorghums being open-pollinate6
are subject to almost endless hybridi
zation if stray plants of other varieties
are allowed to mature In the field
This intermixing Of varieties results
in lack of uniformity in ripening as
well as in the size of the plants, thus
causing difficulty in harvesting and
marketing the crop. The use OF pure
seed varieties which are known to be
adapted to the farmers climatic condi.
lions will be rewarded in bigger and
better crops.

In order to obtain pure sorghum
seed it is usually necessary to go over
the field carefully after it has headed
out and remove the rogues or off-type
plants. Every plant which does not
conform to the type which is desired
should be cut down, or. better, pulled
up SO that there will be no danger OF
the production of seed from tillers
produced by the rogue.
In dwarf varieties the rogueing can
be done easily by man on foot, but
in the taller growing sorts it is most
practical to ride through the field on
horseback so that the workers can see

Judging from reports from drug gists who are constantly in direct

 An examining physician for one Iof the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview of the subject, made the astonishing state. ment that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are reject.

While the Territory provides all the necessities of life including cloth ing and tobacco to the inmates of the Pioneers Home at Sitka, there are many items which cannot be pro vided from the appropriation such as movie tickets and all the little odds and ends which go to make for contentment To remedy this, in September the Governors office got out circular letters to all the igloos of Pioneers in the Territory asking for monthly subscription of $5 from each igloo to be expended under the directions of the board of trustees
 Favorable responses have been re ceived from Ketchikan, Anchorage Seward and Nenana. Today the Gov ernor's office is in receipt of the fol lowing telegram from Nome.
