way TO tnelr hearts.
North Bib county chapter, which is
one of the strongest and most active
chapters in the state, under the capable
leadership of its chairman. Mrs. B. F.
Roden of Marvel, had an interesting
meeting recently at the home of Mrs.
Roden. The representatives of the
branches that compose this chapter
were invited to meet in Marvel at Mrs.
Roden's home, where they enjoyed
delightful buffet supper, after which
business meeting was held. 1t is
regretted that the strike coming at this
time interferred with the plans of this
chapter for the membership drive, but
it was deemed advisable to postpone
the campaign until a more appropriate
season. Interest in the cause is main
tanned, however, and as soon as pos
sible, DIR. Geo. Randall, the roll call
chairman, will put his team in the field.

towns principally.

FIRST SALE YIELDED $4,000
National tuberculosis Association,
Which Sponsors Sale, viii Place
550,ooo,ooo Seals on Sale to
Finance the Fight Against
tuberculosis.

The Red Cross Seal-as millions OF
Americans know it to day, is an agent
of happiness and health. 1t was orig
mated in 1907 by Miss Emily 2. Bissell,
Of Wilmington, Delaware, who learned
through Jacob Riis of somewhat SINH
lar seals that were sold in Norway for
the purpose Of raising funds with
which to fight tuberculosis.
Miss Bissell persuaded the Ameri-
can Red Cross to take up the idea with
the result that seals were sold IN a
limited number of communities IN
1908. The sale yielded revenue OF
approximately $4,000. The Red Cross
then decided to issue the seals each
wear and to turn the proceeds over to
fine National tuberculosis association
and its affiliated societies for the pur-
pose of financing the campaign against
tuberculosis. The number of seals
sold in America increased by leaps
and bounds until in 1917 the total
reached 180,000,0OO.
This year the seals are again on
sale beginning December /. More
than half a billion seals have been
printed for distribution to state and
local agents. In addition to the
seals Health Bonds" in denomina-
lions ranging from $500 to 500 90
are to be sold in lieu of seals to
large contributors, who do not send
out a sufficient quantity of mall in
December to make use of all the seals
they would like to purchase. The
combined quotas Of all the state or
ganizations call for more than $6,5OO,-
600 to carry ont the intensive educa-
tional campaign being conducted by
the National tuberculosis Association
and its 1000 affiliated societies.
The intensive sale of these seals
represents practical demonstration
of every lesson that has been learned
regarding scientific distribution. Ex-
perts of the highest standing In sales
management have co-operated to the
extent Of assuring those interested
that every resident of the United
States will have an opportunity to buy
Red Cross Christmas Seals.

In lieu Of an essay Frank B. Evans
consented to talk to the Club. In
part he said: II enjoyed the last
meeting because it was thoroughly a
discussion among the members. The
host introduced the subject which
was fully amplified by the members
and others present. The constitu-
ton calls for an essay. For a year
or more we have had college men to
be our guests and do the talking
which is very well occasionally SO
long as it does not crowd out the
observations of the Club members
themselves. I would particularly
like to see the old custom of the host
or other members give his observa
lions in the Club. Life is monot-
onous. Specific, Call up Tom Fl. or
someone else and trade horses
Soy beans. Especially where beans
are sowed for seed. AS many as
100 pods to one plant. I have grown
soy beans for at least three times.
In every case heavy crop, seeded
two or more seasons in succession.
Plants not showing such rank
growth but maturing ten days or so
earlier. Select these for seed and
thus get a crop to mature early
enough to harvest and seed ground
to wheat Question-Why are you
giving preference to soy beans over
COW peas, and even over alfalfa?
Soy beans are claimed to have more
ash content. Alsike and red clover
Do you believe the former grows bet
ter, or is it because alsike makes
better hay? Alsike is perennial,
high in protein"
A. H. Mendenhall-"Why do you
think soy beans harder to grow?
Ans. ''Soy beans need good SOIL

beans with the binder. Saved all the
seed, shocked to one side and disced
to wheat. A great success.

makes a nice and valuable feed. l
sowed large mammoth yellow at
first, but they grew too large and

and difficult to pillow, and had nice
crop of wheat and stand of grass on

Evans about ~alsike ano
red clover?"
l d.. l..
alsike and qts. red clover. Alsike
matured first, and very little red
clover. Lately from home grown
red clover seed l have had plenty OF
red clover. would prefer red clover
at all times"
President-"A neighbor who never,
sowed red clover harvested a crop OF
five bushels of red clover from his
ground"
W.R. Cameron-".'Red clover will
grow at home farm, but not on the
