the dealers have considerable in bond.
but this they are unable 10 get out
until the ban is lifted. Most OF the
dealers in the city are "clean dry"
There is no doubt. however, that
plenty can be obtained. One dealer said
Il have received in the last few days
many communications from wholesal-
ers urging me 70 get my orders in. There
is plenty TO be had but right now in
Wilmington there is very little. No
doubt great many dealers have quite
a lot in bond but they can't get It until
The ban is lifted. Most Of the retsI men

TENANCY INCREASING
ON INDIANA FARMS

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Nov. 3-One OF
the most serious results Of the soar
ing land prices in Indiana is the in
crease in tenancy, according to Prof
G. l. Christie. superintendent Of the
agricultural extension department Of
Purdue University.
Indiana now has more than one
third of the farms operated by ten
ants" said Prof. Christie. 1T has
been the aim and object Of our work
for many years to encourage tenants
to buy the farms and thus increase
the number of land owners who oper-
ate their own farms. The esta blish-
ing Of unusually high prices makes 1t
almost prohibitive for tena nts to buy
these farms and thereby increase
rather than decrease the number of
tenants on Indiana farms"
These high priced lands will have
to be farmed as they have never
been farmed before to make interest
on the investment"

RUSSIA is GREATEST TASK
OF AMERICAN RED CROSS
(BY Associated Press)


BUCHAREST, Rumania, Nov. g.
The last scene Of the great relief
work done in Europe by America since
the close of the war. and one that may
prove the greatest yet undertaken by
the American Red Cross, will prob
ably be staged In Russia, said Colonel
Robert E. Odds, European commission
er Of the Red Cross, during an ad-
dress here to Red Cross personnel de-
parting for America.
THE Red Cross has still another
and final task before it, said Col
Odds, lone which may prove greater
than all that we have done before.
The great Bolshevik movement seems
to be nearing it's end and when the
time comes when Russia shall have a
firm, stable government then it will
be the duty of the American Red Cross
to bring Russia's starving and sick
back to health and happiness. And we
must continue in this until Russia can
care for herself That. probably, will
| be the last great after-war campaign
Of the American Red Cross in Europe
I'VE are there already At the pres.
ent moment, the Red Cross has units
in that section bordering on the Gulf
Of Finland ready to enter Petrograd
In Siberia there is a unit with kol-
chak's army and one in the Caucasus
with the army of General Denikine
When the power of the Bolsheviki
crumbles the hand Of the Red Cross
will be the first to help the struggling
Russian nation to its feet
