Red Gross in Russia.

A dispatch dated January 22nd, from
Sorroku, North Russia, tells of the arriv-
al there of the American Red Cross Mis-
sion from Archangel, 800 miles away
This journey of investigation and relief
by the American Red Cross was accom-
plished on sledges which also carried
priceless drugs, medicines and food for
the sick and starving people.
1t is stated that the peasants in many
of the remote hamlets visited had never
seen doctor and were entirely destitute
of medicine of any kind. Arrangements
were made in number of cases to have
patients transferred, by sled, to the Red
Cross Hospital at Archangel. During
the long trip many deeds of mercy were
performed, and large number of sick
were given much-needed medical and
surgical relief

NEW WORKERS DRINKING
"HAIR TONIC WHISKY"
Saloon Men Serving "Non-Beverage"
Alcohol Used in Cologne. Make
Three Hundred Per Cent.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Since the pro-
hibition law went into effect New
York's insistent and enthusiastic
drinkers have been consuming the
"non-beverage" alcohol which usually
goes into hair tonic, cologne and pat
ent medicines, at 80 or 40 cents a
glass, according to Col. Daniel l.. Por-
ter, supervising internal revenue
agent here.
Prune juice and caramel have aid
ed bartenders to cater to customers
and whisky made while you wait"
from the hair. tonic ingredients has
been colored and served as "Scotch,"
"rve" and other favorite brands.
The "non-beverage" alcohol was
manufactured under the wartime
food control law and cost $24O a
barrel. When the saloon keeper OBJ
tanned it his next business operation
was to buy half dozen empty bar
rels and dilute it, then with his stock
of prune Juice and caramel at hand
and his bartender ready he served his
disguised stock by the small glass;
making a profit of anything from
$1,000 to $4,000, according to how
much heart he had for his customers
Col. Foster asserted.

The boil weevil is now in every i'm
portant cotton-growing state, having
this fall established itself in the Car
olinas. Moreover, in nearly all sec
lions where the weevil has been pres
ent this year the damage has been ex-
ceptionally heavy, in some cases run
ming as high as 80 or even 80 per
cent. Damage has been severe in
Texas, where the weevil has been for
many years, and where the seasons
are favorable for the weevil it ap-
pears that the pest will always be on
hand to take a goodly share OF the
cotton crop. In other words, the wee
vii is with us apparently for an in
definite stay, and if we would make
cotton the sooner we learn the es-
sentials in doing so the better for
US. The following recommendations
are based on ten years study of this
pest, plus years u actual cotton
growing under weevil conditions. We
place these essentials in the order of
their importance:
Plant on Rich Land, or Fertilize
Literally.
/. Beyond all question, rich land IS
of first Importance in making cotton
despite the weevil. Our rich valley
and river lands are usually strong
enough to make good cotton despite
the weevil, if they are we'll drained.
But even on these richer soils fifty to
seventy-fve pounds per acre of nj
trate of soda at planting time to
push the crop off rapidly will gener-
ally pay well.
On our thinner lands fertilizers
should be used heavily if cotton is to
be grown at a profit. On such thin
lands, if they have good clay sub
soil, we would recommend 200
pounds per acre of nitrate of soda
and 800 to 400 pounds per acre of
acid phosphate, all applied at plant
ing time. On soils with good clay

Three Essentials in Making
Cotton In Spite of the Boil Weevil
From the Progr essive Farmer.

Isubsoil potash probably will not be
needed, and the tight subsoil prevents
any material teaching out of the nj
trate. On deep sandy soils 100 to
I150 pounds per acre of kainit or its
equivalent should be used to supply
the potash needed, and since teaching
is likely on such soils it will be best
to use one-third or one-half the nj
trate at planting time, using the re-
mainder as a side application the lat
ter part of May or early in June.
Where it can be had at less cost
per pound of nitrogen, sulphate OF
ammonia may be used in place of nj
trate of soda.
The applications recommended
may appear somewhat heavy, but on
our average thin sandy and loan
soils we have good evidence that they
are highly profitable.
Practice Fast, Shallow Cultivation.
2. The object of the heavy fertili-
cation above recommended, of course,
is to push the cotton so that it will
make a fair crop ahead of the weevll;
but if it is to be pushed to its utmost
rapid, shallow cultivation is scarcely
less important than liberal fertiliza-
ton. 1t is hard to lay down any set
rules for cultivating any crop, be-
cause methods must be varied to suit
seasonal conditions. But the ann
should be to stir the soil early
and frequently, particularly early III
the season, so as to kill all grass and
weeds before they get a hold. Later
civilizations should be frequent and
shallow, and grass and weeds should
at all times be kept down. Ordinarily
the clean, we'll kept cotton field has
a good chance to make a crop despite
the weevil.
Space Cotton Closely.
3. The old advice to "space wide
to let in the sunlight" has been prov
ed worse than useless. Experiments
all the way from Texas to Georgia,
on pretty nearly every land ana
grade of soil, have proved that close
spacing uniformly gets the biggest
Yields. Generally, rows three feet
wide and the cotton hoes width IN
the drill will be best. We doubt If
under any conditions rows should be
wider than three and one-half feet.
This may seem like close spacing, but
we have abundant evidence to prove
that it results in bigger yields of
cotton. Poor stands of cotton, in our
opinion. are very largely responsible
for our low yields per acre. Let
"three-foot rows and hoes width in
the drill'' be the aim.
The three points named above we
consider of vital Importance in MAX
ing cotton despite the weevil, coming
far ahead of the matter of varieties,
picking weevils and squares, or pols-
oning. All these combined may not,
in a year like this has been, result IN
a paying crop of cotton; but they
will come nearer to doing so than
any other methods, and in average
years they will result in profitable
crops in most sections of the cotton
belt.

BIRD, SMOKING CIGARETTE,
SET COLLEGE ON FIRE

A cigarette-smoking sparrow
set fire to Geneva college at Bea-
yer Fails, Pa, and this fact will
be duly recorded in the official re-
port of Fire Chief Richard Tim
mons, of the Beaver Falls depart
ment, when he makes it to the
state.
A student threw the butt of a
lighted cigarette from a window
to the grass. A sparrow bounced
upon it and scared to his nest in
the caves of the dormitory. Next
came a fire alarm. Not much dam
age was done.
