is while acting in this capacity that
her son comes to her. He, too, has
been crushed by the scientific certi-
tude of his father. Realizing his need
for a mothers care, Renee is virtually
reborn. She begins to undo the harm
wrought by the husband. She gives
up the circus to be nea her son. She
establishes herself as a seeress. Her
regeneration begins.
And in her regeneration she brings
about the salvation of stephen. But
how she achieves her end through the
urge of mother-love and the psychic
phenomena which enables her to win
out are tremendous climaXes of the
story which must be seen to be APP
preciated. One is made to think and
to weep at the same time. Miss
Rambeau, in THE Fortune Teller
is at her best. Her dramatic power
and her faultless technique dominate
the picture and make the screen story
even more entertaining and instruc.
tive than the stage performance. HeI

FEDERAL STANDARDS
PREVENT INEQUALITY
Cause of Considerable Oissatis-
faction Removed.
With Passing Of Misrepresentation In
creaslng Sentiment Being Mani
tested In Favor Of Purchase
and Sale by Grade.

misunderstanding as to the applica-
ton Of the federal grain standards and
as to the benefits to be derived from
the sale Of grain upon a grade basis
have been the cause Of considerable
dissatisfaction among producers and
country elevator operators, but with
the passing Of these misapprehensions
an ever-increasing sentiment Is being
manifested I'm favor of the purchase
and sale by grade at country points.
The old system Of basing the price
at which wheat or other grain was
bought from the farmer upon the aver
age quality of the crop in any commu-
nifty or section was totally unfair to
the producer of good grain. Under the
"mine-run" basis of purchasing grain
the producer Of good grain received
no more for his clean, heavy wheat
than did the producer Of light weight
and otherwise inferior grain. Instead
of a premium upon heavy grain, pre-
MUM was paid upon inferior products.
The application of federal grain
standards is calculated to prevent such
inequality. and as experience is being
had under the grading system growers
are finding that the purpose sought is
being accomplished.

RED CROSS EXTENDS =
RELIEF TO POLAND

More than $5,000,000 has been spent
by the American Red Cross In aiding
the stricken people Of Poland. The
organization has nursed the sick, fed
the starving, clothed the naked, shelter
ed the homeless, schoOled the children
and cared for the orphans there. 1t has
conducted a relentless fight against
typhus, cholera and other terrible dis
eases. SO today millions of men and
women In that resurrected nation
speak in grateful appreciation of 1.-THE
Greatest Mother In the World"
Nearly 200 American Red Cross
workers are now engaged In relief ac-
tivities in Poland. Four large relief
bases are In operation and eleven mo-
bile units are In the field During the
last twelve months this organization
was largely instrumental In the re-es-
adjustment Of a million refugees at a
cost for general relief of more than
81 100000. Last winter one-half mil
lion war orphans were aided material
ly, and since then a series of large or
phanages have been established TO give
them permanent care.
But for American Red Cross aid, Of
ficials of Poland declared recently, mil
lions of people I'm that country would
have perished of disease, exposure or
starvation the last eighteen months
And the work there must be kept mp
for another year.

FIRST AID TRAINING
TO men AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
Hundreds of Thousands Life
Saving Methods. 49,

The purpose of instruction in First
Aid to the injured offered by the Amer
lean Red Cross is TO train men and
ment promptly and intelligently when
emergencies demand ii. First Aid
treatment is not intended to take the
place of physicians service. a sur
geon should always be summoned as
Il precautionary measure where there
is an injury of any consequence, but
when one cannot be secured a few min
utes' delay may mean fatality. In
such a case person trained in. First
Aid Is invaluable not only to the in
dividual, but through him to the COM
munity In which he lives.
There is perhaps no way of ascer-
tanning the number of deaths or seri-
Gus dsablements which result from
lack of proper safeguards or prompt
emergency treatment. 1t is safe to as
sert they number thousands daily.
There can be no doubt that the appli-
cation of First Aid methods to each
case would UNNECESSARILY tighten the
country's toll Of suffering and death.
The dissemination of First Aid train
ing and information has already pro-
duced farreaching and beneficial in
fluence In the prevention Of accidents
on railroads, In mines and in great in
dustrial concerns.
The benefit of widespread knowl
edge of First Aid In the event of
great disaster, such as train wreck,
an explosion, an earthquake, ETC., is
obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as
sistance. Many lives may depend upon
such emergency care.
Red Cross First Aid work includes
% the formation and conduct, through
Red Cross chapters, of classes for in
struction In accident prevention and
First Aid to the injured among men.
and women In all communities and In
every industry; (2) the introduction of
courses Of instruction i'm high schools
and colleges.
The Red Cross Is prepared to supply
First Aid books and equipment at rea-
sonable prices.
Every person In this country able to
do so should, in his own interest, re-
ceive Red Cross First Aid instruction.
Information about the course and in
struction classes may be had at the
nearest chapter headquarters.

With shortage Of farm labor, as
acute this year as in the critical war
year of 1913. threatening a curtailment
of food production on the farms, espe-
cially at the trying season of harvest
ing. the United States department of
agriculture Is endeavorng to stir up
the interest of city men in spending
their vacations in the fields, particu-
larly as harvest helpers.
Everyone remembers the now famous
'shock troops" of the war years, who
went into the harvest fields of Kansas
and other large wheat-prOducng states
and lent a hand at gathering in the
nations bread supply. They included
men in many walks of life-cOllege
students and city men, including bank
ers, lawyers, doctors. clerks and state
and city officials. These veterans, to.
gether with other volunteers TO swell
the ranks, are urged to mobilize again
this year to help relieve the present
shortage and so aid in combating high
costs of food products.
Rendered Good Service In 1918.
In making this appeal it is recog-
nized that, at the outset at least, such
labor is not as efficient as experienced
farm labor, but the excellent results
secured in 1918, when city men in
large numbers came to the aid of the
farmers leave no doubt as to the sue
cess Of the present canvass If the
men respond.
The present labor shortage has
arisen in spite of the fact that farm
wages are Is TO % per cent higher
than last year. The situation. unreme-
died, cannot fail to have an unfavOr-
able effect on production, according
to observers Of the department, who
are watching the condition closely. II

will tend, they say, to prevent any re-
duction In the prices of farm products.
While the total acreage undoubtedly
has been reduced as a result of the
present situation, II is not In so large
proportion as the reduction In the
labor supply, because the farmers with
their families exerted themselves to
the utmost to overcome the handicap.
Cultivation this year was less inten-
sfve than formerly. More land was
put into grass and such crops as re-
CURED minimum of labor, and the
titled fields consequently suffered.
Grain States Need Help.
From many of the harvest centers
are coming appeals for help. In some
of the big grain-producing states of
the West. such as Idaho and Nebras-
ka, the demand for labor for planting
the crops and tending them was fairly
well met. Harvesting and thrashing,
however, means more help, and 1t is
this that the farmers in these areas
are worrying about. Help must come
from the cities, and II is to arouse the
interest Of city men and obtain their
aid that the department and other
agencies of the government and the
states are directing their efforts.
Persons who are DESTROYS of re-
spending to the appeal should get in
touch with directors of agricultural ex-
tension at the colleges in the various
states These directors ore rod
to supply the names of county agents
having farmers In their respective
counties who need farm labor. BY this
means anyone wishing to help can get
In direct communication with the
farmer. In the grain-producing states
local employment headquarters are es-
tablished at various centers.

COOPERATIVE HOUSES
ON BUSINESS LINES
Quite Necessary to Secure the
Greatest Results.
Experts Of Bureau of Markets Cite
Two Instances to Substantiate As
sertion That Each Member
Must Be on Equal Footing

To secure the greatest results, Co
operative marketing enterprises must
be organized and operated along sound
business lines, say experts of the bu-
reau of markets, United States depart
ment Of agriculture, who cite two In
stances to prove their point.
sweet potato cooperative market
ing association was formed in New
Mexico county that bOasted OF seven
sweet potato warehouses. Six of these
warehouses were ignored in organizing
the association. The owner Of the
seventh warehouse was permitted TO
hold 81 per cent of the stock. With
such a monopoly. this gentleman WAS
able to control the business Of the as
ISOLATION. with the result that all the
sweet potatoes were stored In his
warehouse, and the other warehouse
men faced the threat of being driven
out of business. However, the sew
enth warehouse owner was finally
made TO see the error of his ways.
and through the assistance of the field
marketing agent of the United States
department of agriculture the asso-
citation has been recognized upon a
truly cooperative basis.
In the adjoining county were two
men who had made a considerable for
tune in sweet potatoes, largely through
their ability TO store their potatoes In
their own warehouses. The other
sweet potato growers were able barely
TO exc out n small profit, because they
were compelled to sell their produce
Immediately. The two warehousemen
finally were prevailed upon to interest
themselves in the formation of a CO.
operative association. The association
was thereby enabled to negotiate a
loan from the bank for the construc-
ton of q warehouse to take care OF
the pooled produce. This was such
an announcement to the farmers that
II was soon necessary to construct an
other building because OF a consider
able increase In crops.
The two leading sweet potato men
I'm this association did not hold ma
1ority of the stock. The organization
is a cooperative one in the full mean
ing of the word Each member Is on
an equal footing with every other
! member. At recent meeting of the
association It was announced that
through the combined efforts Of the
farmers $4,000 in additional profits
has been secured, with all the seed
sweet potatoes yet to be sold.

EGGS IN SEPARATE PACKAGES
Some Markets Favor White SheIIed,
While Others Favor Brown
Throw Out Defects.

Market white-shelled and brown
shelled eggs In separate packages.
Eggs irregular in shape, those which
are unusually long or thin-shelled, or
which have shells otherwise defective,
should be kept by the producer for
home use, so that breakage in transit
may be reduced as much as possible.

DON'T FEED DEAD CARCASSES
Careful Examination Should Be Made
to Find Traces Of TuberculosIs-
May Infect Herd.

Don't feed dead carcasses of cattle
to hogs until after careful autopsy
has shown that they are not affected
with tuberculosis. You may infect
your whole herd by feeding the car
cass of a COW that has died after
lingering illness. Such carcasses
should be burned or buried deeply.
