SITUATION FOR FARMERS
AND RAILROADS MAY
BECOME SERIOUS

That the fertilizer movement has
been slow this year and that conges-
ton of traffic is probable unless farm
ers put in their orders at once, is the
burden of statement issued yester-
day by Regional Railroad Director
Winchell which is as follows:
"Please let me say a word to our
farmer patrons.
"The normal yearly movement of
fertilizers in this region runs from
three million to five million tons.
This means, in round figures, 16O, 900
carloads to be handled.
Ordinarily most of this very large
item of traffic is thrown on the rail
roads in the months of January, Feb
ruary and March. Great activity on
their part is necessary to handle the
same well.
"By February 10 at least 40 per
cent. Of the whole fertilizer tonnage
has usually been shipped, but this
year less than IS per cent. has moved
so far; that is to say, the movement
up to date is about $4,000 cars short
Of what it should have been.
ut is easy for you to see what ]
fear.
"A flood of business at the last mo-
ment cannot be moved to the salts.
faction of our patrons and complaints
will surely follow. We are anxious
to avoid complaints, but it is obvious
that we canot move all Of this ton.
mage at one time. In order to dc
the Job right it is necessary that il
be well distributed throughout the
whole three months.
During the past four or Ave week.
car conditions and weather have beer
favorable, but the fertilizers have not
moved freely and immediate activit,
is now necessary to avoid a condition
which will be serious alike to tn,
farmers and the railroads"

THE RUBY BRANCH ARC.
MAKES FINE REPORT
To The Advertiser:

To The Advertiser:
The Ruby Branch of Chesterfield
Chapter ARC. now numbers fiftv-
seven members. A few names have
been secured since the membership
drive. 1t is to be regretted that all
the old members did not enroll for
this year. However, twenty new
names on the roll is encouraging. In
soliciting hundred per cent. mem
bership for the Red Cross RUBY has
recorded her first failure in war and
relief activities.
In the recent drive for Armenian
and Syrian relief under the chairman
ship of the Rev. j. R. Millard, the al
lotment of $500 for Ruby was very
creditably exceeded. One hundred
and twenty-one dollars was the
amount contributed. Of this amount
the school donated $2O.O5.
In the canvass last week for the
Y.W.C.A. by Mrs. r. d. McCreight
1883 was given, the amount appor-
toned to Ruby being $1,000, again
she went cover the top"
1t is not too late to send a dol
lar and enroll as Red Cross mem
Der. This is special appeal to those
whose names were on the roll for
1918 and who have so far failed to
re-enroll.
