HOME SERVICE O
IN NEED

Do you know what the present day
Home Service of the American Red
Cross is?
Many people do not know that, be-
sides completing the work for eX-serv-
Ice mon, especially the disabled, it pro-
vides the same neignbOrly service to
families in general that 1t formerly
gave families Of soldiers, sailors and
marines.
Home Service covers a wide and
varied field" says Frederick G. Mum
roe, general manager Of the American
Red Cross. at gives aid to families
In solving such problems as budget
planning, marketing, tiding over times
of financial stress, keeping children in
school, helping crippled children, wild
owed and deserted mothers. children
backward In school and children in
conflict with the laws. 1t renders serv-
ice to the homeless and transient, to
the illiterate, to tenement dwellers, to
the unemployed, and gives friendly as
%sistance and advice to foreign speak
ing groups"
In addition to helping families In
the solution Of their own problems,
Home Service helps In strengthening
the weak spots In the social life OF
communities. 1t joins hands with 9TH
.rs to make communities safer.
healthier and happier.
Organizing action along lines in
which the community is already inter
ested is one Of the objects Of Home
Service. 1t has established community
meetings, patriotic celebrations, pag-
eants and picnics. Rest rooms. recre-
, alton facilities, play supervisors and
moving pictures have been provided.
Through Home Service other agencies
are influenced TO bring about improved
commercial amusements and better
school facilities and TO promote travel
ing libraries as we'll as TO secure coun-
ty agricultural and home demOnstra-
ton agents.
If you need assistance at any time.
go to the secretary Of the nearest Red
Cross chapter and describe the situa.
ton. Your confidence will be sacred'y
respected and every possible effort will
be made to aid you.

6 yards more around right end which
placed the ball on States 1-yard line.
State stiffened their defense and held
them for downs and put an end TO
the most remarkable series of gains
by one man ever witnessed on State
field. Just before the game ended the
lightweight marvel, Kaplan, made 40
yards in three end runs the game end

Both teams played straight football
the greater part of the game, opening
up a little in the last period which
made that part of the game the most
exciting of all. Roberts for State was
the outstanding star, although every
member of the Yellow and Blue squad
contributed directly to the victory.
Mccain at quarter engineered the ma
chine in great shape. Johnson made
good at fullback and his toe was a
great asset to the team.

bedaubed with paint, led the process
sion. From them all eyes turned with
curiosity toward the huge "Agrooter"
which came cavorting down the street
with his snout close to the ground
like the original Poland China rooter.
This feature, which was the work OF
the Agricultural society, was the most
striking unit of the parade. The best
stunt feature of the parade, which was
justly awarded first prize, was the
beautiful white airplane Of the school
of pharmacy followed by a group of
pharmics in prison stripes marching
lock step. The two large white jack
rabbits perched on a cart with a corn
shock and pumpkins a~ttractively rep
resented the junior class and their an.
nual publication, the Jack Rabbit.
This feature tied with the "Agrooter"
for the second prize.
A remarkable thing about the parade
was the number Of bands, all of which
were equally adept at turning out
good music. Beside of the girls band
there were two hobo bands Of good
size and a special village band who
favored the crowds with much inn
promptu music. To add still further
to the musical features of the parade
the chapel choir were mounted on a
float with a piano and held up their
end with the rendition of popular
songs.
The large sized freshman still with
the placard. "Patronize Home Indus

BATTLE FOR STATE HONORs
CONTINUED from Page II

tCOntllued from rage ID
Practically all Of their victories were
the result Of sensational runs through
a broken field. In that they will be
disappointed when they reckon with
the fleet sprinters on Coach Arm
| ~strong's eleven. Sundct will easily
outplay Nilsson, the light 500 fullback
and Brookings will back Ryger against
any p e field runner that Sioux Falls
has.
1t is impossible to arrive at any
idea of the strength of the two teams
from comparative scores since neither
have FLASHED with a common enemy.
500 strength is indicated largely
through her victory over Sioux cry
and several other high school teams
in the state. That Sioux Falls defen-
siye ability is not great is Indicated
by the fact that she has been scored
on in nearly every game. Brookiugs
has not COPIED with a team this sea
son that tested her full strength. Each
victory has been decisive and their
goal has nOt been crossed EXCEPT for
a contested touchdown in the game
with WATERFOWL. Sioux Falls will find
the BroOkings team a harder nut 20
crack than they anticipated.
The Sioux Falls Argus-Lcader has
this to say about Sundet: In Sundet.
the Bookings eleven has a player Of
great ability. At fuillback he has
proved the sensation of the year, and
with him they hope to batter through
for consistent gains over the Orange
and Black tackles. Sundet has the
reputation of being picked as all
state full last year. This year he is
considerably heavier, weighing around
1870 pounds, and has been able to
plunge through any line that he has
seen"
High school students and other fans
who are unable to see the game at
Sioux Falls today will have the OBJ
p~ortunity to watch the game play by

Boil New Shaving Brush.

When you buy shaving brush.
boil 1t. thoroughly before using 1t or
leave 1t for four hours in a 10 per
cent dilution of formaldehyde liquor
at ITO degrees f. Either of these
methods will protect you from anthrax.
Before the war there was little
danger of anthrax from the shaving
brush. as almost all Of these were
made from hair that had been thor
oughly disinfected In France or
Germany; but after 1914 the hair
came direct from Russia and China
via the Pacific ocean, and twenty
cases of anthrax have been traced d.
rectly to this source.
As "a per cent of anthrax cases are
fatal 1t behooves us to be extra care
full, in spite of the fact that human
susceptibility is low-how low is in
dicated by the fact that only one case
is known to have developed from a lot
of 10000 infected brushes.

In grading wheat under the federal
standards one of the fundamental
principles Is to determine the numeri-
cal grade on a dockage-free basis I;
that Is, the dOckage is first removed
from the sample and the grade deter
mination is made on the clean or dock
age-free wheat. A few exceptions to
this principle are noted in the follow
Ing pages.
What is dockage? 1t Is the foreign
material screened from a sample of
wheat to be graded, by the use of ap-
propriate hand sleeves or other clean
ing devices, such as those approved
by the United States department of
agriculture. 1t consists of sand. dirt,
weed Seeds weed stems. chaff, straw,
grain other than wheat, any other for
eign material, and in certain cases
some finely broken and small shriv-
eled kernels of wheat.
The purpose of the dockage provi-
sion in the wheat standards is to ena-
BILE the person grading the representa-
tive sample to determine the approx
Elbert County tribune and Elbert County banner. (Elizabeth, Colo.) 1920-1921, 1920-08-06

The percentage of dockage Is
an essential factor In arriving
at the true value of lot of
wheat. This dockage may con-
sist of either useful or harmful
foreign materials.
The various methods Of han
ding dockSge should be care
fully Investigated and the one
that is best suited to the needs
of the local conditions should be
adopted.
When large percentage of
dockage Is present in wheat 1t is
advisable to remove 1t on the
farm or at the point of shipment
and thus avoid paying the freight
for the dirt, chafr. weed seeds.
etc, on the basis of the rate for
wheat.
The farmer should get high
er numerical grade for his wheat
under the dockage system of the
federal grades than he would un-
der a system of grading that
does not require determination
for dockage but lowers the
grade on account of the total
foreign material present In the
wheat marketed at country
points.
The dockage system In opera
ton protects the farmer from
the possibility of low prices
fixed by the local buyer In or
der to insure a safe purchase on
n fiat-rate basis.

riculture, Washington, for a bull

The dockage is separated from this
1,0OOgram sample by screening with
the proper hand sleeves or by using an
approved cleaning device such as is
described under the heading Detailed
Description of the Method of Deter
mining Dockage." The dockage so
separated is weighed and the percent
age Is found, based on the total
weight of the sample including the
dockage. II the amount of dockage
is below l per cent 1t Is disregarded.
For example, II only one-half of 1 per
cent foreign material is so separated
no dockage is assessed. This one
half Of 1 per cent, however, would not

termining the grade. II ~ per cent

After the dockage is removed the
clean sample Is used In determining
the grade, save for few exceptions.
Dockage does not affect the grade as
signed to the wheat. If l per cent or
more of separable foreign material is
found, dockage is assessed. In inspec-
ton certificates 1t Is indicated imme-
diately after the statement of the
grade designation, as mo. / northern

Foreign Material in Wheat
The foreign material usually found
in wheat may become mixed with the
wheat while growing, or with the
grain at the time of threshlng, or In
the elevator or other place of storage
during the various processes of han
ding or marketing. The presence of
foreign material in wheat at the time
of threshing may be the result of i'm
pure seed, or of certain weather con-
ditions which are unfavorable to the
growth of wheat plants but favorable
to the growth of weeds. II the seed
is carefully selected. cleaned. tested
and treated before planting, If care is
exercised in the cultivation and crop
rotation, and II the wheat is carefully
threshed and cleaned at the time of
threshlng. there should be ordinarily
very little foreign material present
when the crop Is marketed. The for
eign material in wheat may seriously
affect Its value in that 1t often in
creases the cost OF milling and causes
injury to the baking qualities Of flour.
Therefore. that factor is considered in
the inspecting and grading of wheat.
The amount Of dockage present has a
bearing upon the commercial value of
n lot of wheat. Especially when
present in large amounts, 1t is fac
tor of considerable importance to the
parties interested In the marketing or
storage of grain.
There are two terms In the federal
wheat standards which apply to for
eign notwithstanding" and foreign
material other than dockage." Dock
age" is the foreign material that is
separated from the sample of wheat
by the correct use of appropriate hand
sleeves. Foreign material other than
dockage" is the foreign material that
Is not separated in the screening and
remains in the dockage-free sample.
"Dockage" does not affect the grade.
but sometimes does affect the weight
of the wheat to be sold. Foreign ma
terial other than dockage" is a factor
in the grading, and definite percent
ages are permitted within each nu-
merical grade
Elbert County tribune and Elbert County banner. (Elizabeth, Colo.) 1920-1921, 1920-08-06

nate amount of easily separated for
eign material that is in the lot of
wheat. Dockage is therefore approx
imately the percentage of foreign ma
terial which can be readily removed
from the lot of wheat by the ordinary
commercial types of cleaning machin-
cry commonly found in grain elevators
and mills.
The dockage test is made ordinarily
by weighing about 1000 grams of
wheat (about two and one-quarter
pounds, which should constitute
representative sample. Grams are
1sed instead of other units for ease
n determining percentages.
