gency relief to the unemployed last ed six days, during which period B. 041 milk tickets were distributed. and 9,772 families-32, ,096 individuals were assisted.
 The usefulness and quick response of the Red Cross Motor Corps wo- mer and canteen service during the year has proven a strong argument for disaster preparedness. Their value was demonstrated in an un- usual number of emergencies. A notable instance was the stranding last January, off the coast of Fire Island. N. Y. of the "Northern Pa cific," returning from Europe with overH2 1000 American soldiers, many of whom were injured.
 The disaster records of 1919 are evidence that the American Red Cross is more strongly organized and more readily equipped to meet emer- gencies than it ever has been be- fore. condition largely due to the wll-formed plans for combating mis- cry misery and distress consequent tc disaster which have been develop ed from experience in past disasters, a,d which form a vital part in the reace-time program of the American Red Cross.

, England Gets Most
 of Canadian Logs

Victoria. B. c. Feb. 16.-A slight decrease in the total log scale in British Columbia last year, compar- ed with 1918, has been reported in official figures made public by T. D Pattullo, minister of lands. The log scale last year was 1.758.000, ,000 feet In 1918 it was 1,761 .000.00O feet. A sharp decrease in. the Prince Rupert district, caused by g slump in the spruce industrsL was partly respon- sible. Government airplane con tracts were cancelled.
 High price spaid for timber last wear made the 1919 yield more val uable than that of the preceding year. The comparatively estimates are $62, ,OO0, ,0OO and $54,000,000.
 Great Britain received the great bulk of ocean shipments from this province last year. Sixty-five mil lion feet of lumber went to England China.

DIDN'T HAVE WELL
 DAY FOR 25 YEARS
San Francisco Woman Has Gained 90 Pounds by Taking
 Tanlac

q had not seen a well day in twenty-five years until started taking Tanlac." said Mrs. Virginia Stapp. of 195 Valencia street, San Francisco, Cal.
 q was beginning to think" she continued. "that would have to bear n,v wretched health as long as lived I had no appetite. and when I managed to eat a few bites could not digest it, and as 1 could oct no strength or nourishment fell off twenty-five pounds in weight I hardly knew what it was to be without headache. All my life have been so constipated that every day for years had to take . laxative. My tongue was always coated and I had a bad taste in my mouth all the time. Nv condition was so bad that I could get little sleep. but would roll and toss about all night long.
 4'But all that is changed now. fol since taking Tanlac am able to eat anything I please without any baf after effects and I have actuall, gained thirty pounds. I haven't hat a headache in so long l have almos forgotten about them. My constipat ed condition has been relieved aht 1 never have that bad taste or coated tongue any more.

KNAPP DECLARES
 COTTON ACREAGE
 CANNOT INCREASE
Present Labor Situation Makes It Impossible. He
 Says

Washington, Feb. 16.--An increased acreage in cotton this year is out of the question according to Dr. Brad. ford Knapp, who recently resigned as chief of the office of extension work in the South with the depart ment of agriculture to become dean of the college of agriculture, Uni- versity of Arkansas.
 "The experience of 1919 ought to teach southern cotton farmers that they cannot handle, with their pres- ent supply of labor, an increased acreage in cotton; the labor is not there," writes Dr. Knapp in one of of his last works before leaving the department of agriculture entitled Safe Farming in the Southern States in 1920"
 By safe farming" says Dr.. Knapp, "is meant system which maintains soil fertility, produces the food and feed for the people and the livestock in sufficient quantities to insure comfortable surplus, and produces cotton as strictly cash crop"
 .Is safe farming as thus defined needed in the South in 1920?'' asks the department of agriculture. There are probably those who think not. Cotton is so high--so much higher than it ever was before. The supply is apparently so short-the cotton mills of the world so greatly in need of cotton. Is it not time the once in life time-when the farmer can turn his whole energy to cotton and make killing?" Without specifically asking the ques- ton. Dr. Knapp answers it. His word to the farmers of the South is that the plan followed the past few years is still good. The only safe plan for farmers. and bankers, is to insist upan a safe farming program
 "Cotton" pr. Knapp says, "is not actually very high. It is high as compared with prices in former years, not as compared with. current prices of other commodities. Before the farmer decides that the high price of cotton will warrant his planting the entire acreage to that crop to the neglect of all else, he says, he had better make pretty thorough examination of the retail prices of the necessities of life at the place where he must purchase them during the year if he fails to produce them on his own farm"

The powers desire to remind the government of the Netherlands that if it should per sist in it's attitude of detachment to- ward the presence of the imperial family on it's territory so close to Germany, it would assume direct re- sponsibility, both for sheltering from the claims of justice, and for that propaganda which is so dangerous to Europe and the whole world
 "It is indisputable that the per manent presence of the ex-emperor- under intellectual supervision, few kilometres distance from the German frontier, where he continues to be the center of active and increasing intrigu, constitutes for the powers who have made superior human sac rifices to destroy this mortal danrer a menace which they cannot be called upon to accept.

Red Cross Spent $421,000 Giving Aid
 in 39 Disasters

Washington, Feb. 16.-The extent of American Red Cross relief work in connection with disasters of many kinds in the United States during 1919 was revealed in review made public by National Red Cross head quarters today.
 Although there were few disasters that approached the major impor- tance of the calamities of other years there were many opportunities for relief possible as shown by re- ports on 39 disasters in which the Red Cross gave emergency relief. In addition there were minor disas- ters in which Red Cross chapters went into action, but. upon which they have not rendered reports.
 Statistics concerning the 39 report ed disasters show that approximate ly $421 900 was spent by the Red Cross in alleviating the distress of the victims. These disasters re- suited in total of $50 deaths, 1900 persons injured and about 50,0O0 estimated at $25 25,000,000. The most hurricane at Corpus Christi, Tex, in oCptCIHUcI, WHiCu hlllcu AVU pcTSOHS and rendered thousands homeless, i'm flicting also property loss of $4,- 900 0,000.
 Information was received by the Red Cross concerning seven etorna- coes, two severe storms, two earth ouakes. six floods. 10 fires and ex- plosions, three mine disasters, five shipwrecks and marine disasters. two race riots, motor accident and the drought situation in Montana. Great storms were thus responsible in 1919 as in previous years, for a largo percentage of the property damage, loss of life, personal iniur- ies and other conditions demanding relief efforts. Such calamities usual ly present every phase of disaster snd require almost every form of relief activity. Illustrative of this type was the hurricane which struck Corpus Christi. Among the forms of emergency relief extended by the Red Cross in meeting this situation, was the service given by the canteen, which fed 1000 daily as long as there was need.
 The race riot in Chicago last Au- gust presented the opportunity for important work on the part of the Chicago Red Cross chapter. Emer-

Hay Cost Plus.

rIay Cost PluS. Secretary Baker was charged with direct responsibility "for this unpre- cedented action" Thirteen logging
 railroads were said to have been started, none of which was completed
 before the war ended, and five cost $8,325, ,194. the majority asserting some roads took roundabout course "to touch summer resorts"
 There were not enough skilled log gers to carry out the governments spruce program, said the minority report, defending use of soldiers. Government spruce properties, the majority report said, were estimated by Disque to have salvage value of 10 per cent of cost, on which basis settlements were made with Great Britain for her share of spruce loss es. An expert accountant employed
 by the committee. testified that 30 million dollars was wasted by Dis que based on the. contract price in 1918.
 The minority report held that at the wars end that spruce production corporation had salvageable proper ties costing originally $18.O00,000, and that settlement was made with Great Britain, which paid $14,0OO,- 900 for her part of the obligation. On this settlement 10 per cent sal wage value was accepted. Property costing more than four million dol lars, MT. Lea declared, was sold at "A per cent of it's cost price. The majority report alleged that more than $30,O00,000, was wasted through mismanagement in producing airp1ane lumber in the northwest. The cost plus contracts were described as 'di- rect invitation" to premeditated waste and extravagance The cost of five ofsthe logging roads was 'prac. tically double the assessed full valus of three great trans-continental roads," was the charge.
