 At the same moment he conceded the election of Harding. White also conceded the election of a Republican Congress.
 Senator Harding's election came on his fifty y-fifth birthday anniversary.
 At the rate the Harding column was growing the Republican plurality in New York state will be around the unprecedented figure of more than a million.

New York On the face of returns

New York.-On the face of returns showing the growing landslide for Harding, Governor Cox's own news paper, the Dayton Daily News, and Chairman White of the Democratic National Committee conceded the election of Senator Harding. Without waiting for returns from the West, which four years ago elected Wilson in the face of pluralities for Hughes throughout the East, the Democratic candidate and his chief manager con ceded that in the solemn referen- dun1," which President Wilson said would decide the League of Nations question, American voters had pre- forred Harding, who favored "stay- ing out" to Cox, who favored "go- ing

NURSING SERVICE IS
 RAPIDLY EXPANDING
This American Red Cross Work Flourishing in Small Towns
 Throughout Country.

More than 37,0oO graduate nurses have been enrolled in the American Red Cross to date and it's department of nursing is daily increasing this en- rollment.
 The department of nursing has been authorized to maintain an adequate reserve of nurses for the army and navy. It will continue to supply the needs of the United States Public Health Service to which it has as- signed more than 1000 nurses in the last year.
 It will assist in establishing proper nursing service in foreign countries where the American Red Cross has or ganized hospitals, dispensaries and schools for nurses. Courses in home hygiene and care of the sick have been started for thousands of women who have never received any education in this direction. Rural nursing which was in its infancy short while ago has been put ahead at least a decade through the work of the department of nursing and local Red Cross chapters.
 Public health nursing has been ex- tended to many rural communities and now fourishes actively in hundreds of small towns and counties. Nearly thousand efficient nurses have already been assigned to this kind of work.
 The department of nursing is unit ing with other organizations in a years campaign In recruiting nurses for training schools, in educating the gen. eral public as to standards of nursing education and in showing communities their responsibility toward schools of nursing. It will endeavor to meet all these needs as well as to continue the enrolment of dietitians who will be utilized as instructors in home dietet- ics, in developing nutritional clinics, and in supplying dietitians for the United States Public Health Service and the civilian hospitals.
 The Nursing Service will continue to offer to women and young girls the opportunity of securing instruction in home hygiene and care of the sick in every community in the country. This instruction has not only laid the foun. dation for public health but in some places has given impetus to the estab- lishment of hospitals and community school houses.
 "As community profits by the work of the nurse," says Miss Clara D. Moves, director of the department Of nursing, Nit is logical that the con- munity should be aroused to It's respon- sibility. The American Red Cross stands ready to help in a general cam paign of recruiting and must have the support sympathy and understanding of the medical profession as we'll as the intelligent cooperation of the people at large"

HOME SERVICE FOR
 EVERYBODY 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 men, especially the disabled 1t pro- vides the same neighborly service to families in general that it formerly gave families of soldiers, sailors and marines.
 Home Service covers a wide and varied field" says Frederick c. Nun roe, general manager of the American Red Cross. Tt 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, wid- owed and deserted mothers, children backward in school and children in conflict with the laws. It 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. It joins hands with oth- CTS 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. It has established community meetings, patriotic celebrations. pag- eants and picnics Rest rooms, recre- ation 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 well 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 sacredly respected and every possible effort will be made to aid you.

prayer to God to make me capable of playing my part" than he was to eYultation
 When Governor Cox and Chairman White made their concession such re- turns as were coming in from the Western states showed strong drift to Harding, and the Republican land slide which began to take on tremen- dous proportions throughout the East was continuing to roll on with seem ingly never ending momentum.
 When the Democratic concession of Republican victory was made there were practically no returns in to show few returns at hand showed few changes, and these were in favor of the Republican side The Democratic fight for control of the Senate showed no signs of waning. Penrose of Penn sylvania, Cummins of Iowa, Wads- worth of New York Brandegee of Connecticut and Moses of New Hamp- shire, the latter two "bitter-enders" in their opposition to the treaty of Versailles, seemed safe in reelection by substantial majorities.
 Taking the Republican landslide in the East as handwriting on the wall, metropolitan papers, among them those which staunchly had supported Cox and the League of Nations is sue. announced the election of Hard ing early in the evening.
 Democratic managers early in the night professed confidence that the votes from the West would overcome the sentiment of the East, while the Republican managers continued to Is sue predictions of victory.
 As the landslide in the East con tinued to roll down, however, and the first indications came that it would extend westward, there evidently was some hurried communication between Governor Cox at Dayton and the

 In the home district of Charles F. Murphy leader of Tammany Hall, Harding beat Cox 3 to | Maine re ported Harding leading Cox by the largest plurality ever given a presi- dential candidate. Ohio, one-fifth complete, showed growing vote for Harding.
 In the New York senatorial race Senator Wadsworth was leading his Democratic opponent, Lieutenant Gov ernor Walker Senators Brandegee of Connecticut and Moses of New Hamp- shire, opponents of the League of Ma tions, both seemed certain of re-elec- tion. Scattered returns from other parts of the country showed Harding votes conspicuous in communities nor. nsally solid Democratic.

ARKANSAS DEMOCRATIC
 BY USUAL MAJORITY
Townsend Ahead of Negro Candidate Biount-Ame ndments Receiving
 Good MaIorities.

Little Rock-Returns from the gen. eral election in Arkansas indicate one of the heaviest votes ever boiled. Re turns were slow coming In due to the fact that the ballot was so long and the vote heavy.
 Thomas C. McRae will be elected governor by the usual large majority, and J. H. Blount, negro independent candidate for governor, is running far behind Wallace Townsend Repubii can candidate. From early returns Blount's vote will be negligible.
 Amendments Nos. 13 and IA have large majorities and although the re- port on the amendments is behind the report on the state offices, these two amendments seem likely to carry. The vote is about two to one in fa- vor of Amendment No. Is, but this amendment is yet in doubt because majority of the highest vote east at the election is required for adoption.
 In the Third congressional distrirt in northwest Arkansas Tillman main tains a lead over his Republican op- ponent, John L. Worthington.
 In the Seventh Judicial district. where there is no Democratic nomi- nee but where Judge w H Evans and J. H. Means are candidates for the judgeship, the race is very close.

Senator Penrose Chosen Aoain.

New York-Early sylvania re- turns showed Harding leading Cox, to 1, and Senator Penrose elected. Massachusetts was promising Harding the greatest plurality ever given a presidential candidate In that state. Boston had gone for a Republican for the second time in it's history, and had given Senator Harding greater lead over Cox than it gave Mckinley over Bryan in 1896.

As the annual rice crop of the United States amounted to more than 200,000,000 bushels in 1918, the margin of loss to the coun- try is appreciable. The cause of the disease has not yet been determined, but a method of control has been found by modifying the system of flooding commonly practiced.

RICE DISEASE ERADICATION
 MAKES PROGRESS THIS YEAR

Much progress in eradicating straighthead in rice, which has done much damage in the plantations of Louisiana, has been made this year by the United States Departmental Agriculture. Straighthead is di- sease which prevents the rice heads from filling with grain, and gets it's name from the fact that the heads thus affected stand up straight in the field instead of dropping like those
