ANNUAL ROLL
CALL; RED
CROSS
Program of Vital Importance;
Pledged to Stand by Dis
abled Ex-Service Men

The American Red Cross will hold
its Fourth Annual Roll Call during
the two-week period beginning with
Armistice Day, November 18th, and
closing with Thanksgiving Day, No
vemher 25th This is not ''drive"
like the campaigns carried on during
tile war. 1t is simply the annual en-
rollment of members in this great hu.
niahitarian organization.
Last year nearly 100000 persons
II alondcd to the Roll Call and of this
total humber nearly 3S0,000 were resi-
dtut, of Washington, Oregon. Idaho
aud Alaska the territory included In
tie Northwestern Division of the
Alnerlcna Red Cross. Washington had
over 100000 members; Oregon nearly
115.000, idaho nearly 10000; and
Alaska nearly 1900. 1t is the ex-
pectation Of the Red Cross that all
these persons will renew their mem
berships this year and that there will
be many additions to the membership
roll.
The Red Cross comes before the pub
lie with a program of vital impor-
tance to every community. The or
ganization is committed by the terms
tinue to act as a medium of communi-
cation between the American people
and their Army and Navy. 1t has
pledged itself to stand by disabled
eX-service men and their families until
they are re-established in civil life
Realizing that the health of the peo-
pie is the greatest asset Of the nation,
the Red Cross Is entering actively into
the field of public health activities.
Health centers and clinics are being
established in communities throughout
the country. Nurses are being trained
and furnished to towns and counties
and women in all walks of life are
being instructed in the principles OF
home hygiene and care Of the sick
Social service, similar to that render.
ed to the families of service men dur
ing the war, is being extended to all
persons in need of friendly assistance
These and numerous other activi
ties, will be carried on in the various
local Red Cross Chapters If the peo
pie of the communities continue Il

rolling as members at the time Of the

one half of the money paid as mem

THE CLOVER CROP FOR SEED
First Cutting for Hay Has Much To
DO With Seed Crop.
HERBERT A. SHEARER

when we moved To our new farm
of forty acres in Idaho, We were 'nX-
itus to grow crops of sufficien: ,a,'c
to meet our future payments"
I'VE soon learned how to grub sage
brush and to grade the ground for
irrigation, but il was not easy To raise
enough of any one crop to make "A
living and have Il surplus However.
we were fortunate in having a neigh
bOr who understood the soil and clim-
ate of the Snake River Valley and he
advised us to seed all of our land with
.ted clover and alsike clover 1uf
success is due largely to his good ad-
vice"
This introduction to the work of
making good farm home was given
NE within sight of the present city of
Twin Falls. The land was bought for
sixty dollars pr acre. 1t wasspaid for
ont of the returns from the crops.
Red clover is the first crop to grow
on raw sage brush land un6er irriga
tion for the following reasons A
great deal of the land In irrigation
districts lacks nitrogn. but it is rich
Ia all the other elements of plan, fard.
Such soil always is deficient in humus.
Glover supplies both humus and nitro
gen so that. after growing clover for
two or three years, those volcanic ash
soils will produce immense crops of
cereals. In the meantime the clover
supplies considerable pasture and a
large crop of excellent seed Seed
grown under irrigation in dry at
mosphere usually has strong germinat-
ing qualities.
The Twin Falls section in Southern
Idaho, where great deal of clover is
grown for seed lies at an altitude of
about 1000 feet
1t is hardly possible to cut a full
crop of hay and then to obtain good
seed crop from the second cutting II
works best to pasture the clover until
about the first or the middle Of June

ing machine.
Rumble bees are new in the Twin
Falls seton of Idaho. They came al
most simultaneously with the first
clover They are there in great num-
hers now, NO King in the clover fields
in summer, making their nests along
road sides and in waste places near
irrigation bitches and their chief work
lis to pollinate the blossoms of red
clover.
When the clover crop is properly
handled the yield of seed in the Twin
Falls section often measured up to six
or eight bushels per acre.
II is noticeable, however, that one
iarmer will have eight bushels of seed

hfeshes two bushels from a similar
