Welfare association
And Its Aims Here

So many questions and so much in
tcrest have been aroused in the past
ten days regarding the Welfare Asso-
citation that it seems advisable to give
brief history Of the organization.
About a year ago a meeting was
held to discuss the forming Of So
ciety to care for unfortunate people
of Alma-those who would not will
ingly accept the help given by the
town. To this meeting were called
representatives from every church
and all other organizations interested
in welfare work. A large number of
women met, officers were elected, and
began work. Headquarters were es-
tablished in the city hall with Mrs. J..
+. Fuller in charge as secretary.
Every case in need Of help was re-
ported to the investigating commit
tee and no aid was given without a
thorough investigation. Materials
were bought and the Aid Societies
of the Churches made up garments.
Used clothing was also received and
given out The funds for all this
work were received from the Red
Cross treasury.
When the need for welfare work in
Alma became so pressing the Red
Cross came forward and generously
offered to finance a movement in the
direction Of united charity and thus
the Alma Welfare Association came
into being.
1t can no longer be expected that
the Red Cross can support the or
ganization, and it is trusting and be-
lieving that the people Of Alma, real
ling the need Of such an activity
will respond to the call for funds
Every interested person in the com
munity is a member Of the Welfare
Association, the only requirement for
membership bcnig a persons coopera-
ton. Help can easily be extended by
a helpful word, the reporting Of casse
in need Of aid, by contributions of
money, clothing, provisions, and will
ingness to aid.
The Welfare Association is hope
full of larger response from Alma
people TO every opportunity to aid the
organization Of which all local people
are part.

SESSION TO DECIDE
GRATIOT'S FUTURE
HIGHWAY POLICY
pnTATO CROP GOOD

East Lansing, Oct. l3-That the
quality Of the Michigan potato crop
is good this year, although the crop
volume is rather light, is the opinion
of II. c. Moore, potato specialist at
the Michigan Agricultural College.
The crop should handle well in tran
sit and in storage, as no serious de
velopments Of Late Blight have ap-
peared in the state.
Some confusion regarding the
Michigan crop has been caused this
year by the indiscriminate use of
terms in describing potato diseases.
Early Blight, or Tip-Burn, has been
serious in the state, bat this disease
does not affect the keeping qualities
Of the tubers, although it causes the
death of the vines in the field. Late
Blight does affect the keeping quail
ity of the tubers, but is not common
in Michigan this year

SIX FEATURE ATTRACTIONS
ARE LISTED FOR LICEUM

The Alma Lyceum Chautauqua
committee has completed arrange
ments with the Redpath Bureau for
the 1921-22 lyceum course, which
promises to be one Of the best courses
that the people Of Alma have had
ever had the opportunity of hearing.
THE Mollusc,' three act comedy
with strong New York cast will be
the first number on the course this
year. Many people will remember the
comedy given on the course last year,
and they may feel assured that the
comedy to be given this year, "The
Mollusc," is even better than the one
presented a year ago. The comedy
will be given November II.
Charles Zueblin, noted lecturer on
american life will appear here De-
cember l6. For the past twenty-five
years he has been engaged in inter
preting America to Americans and
setting forth an ideal Of democratic
development. He is a scholar Of the
finest type-an earnest student Of
the great problems of the country. He
is always positive, constructive and
creative. His lectures have been
warmly commented upon wherever
ne has appeared.

personal magnetism that he has.
The Fine Arts Quartet, presenting
a musical comedy sketch dealing with
the life and old songs Of Old Ireland,
is a pleasing feature. This makes up
but a small portion of the program of
the Fine Arts Quartet, however, and
it is regarded as certain to prove "A

Commission Seeks
Farmer Facts

County farm bureaus in Michigan
have been asked to tell the Joint
Congressional Committee of Agricul-
tural Inquiry, now sitting at Wash
ington, what the farmer paid for his
necessities during the period of 1913
1921, inclusive, and to compare those
figures with prices that he received
for farm crops and products during
the same period, says the State farm
bureau.
The Commission seeks such infor-
nation from every county farm bu-
reau in the country in the country to
assist it in determining the causes
which brought about the depression in
agriculture as a business and how to
best remedy the present situation.
The American Farm Bureau and
State Farm Bureau Federations are
cooperating in obtaining such data.
Septmeber % the Michigan State
Farm Bureau sent price survey ques-
tionnaires to every county farm bu-
reau in the state.
Accurate records of the price farm
ers paid and received for commodi-
ties on March and November / each
year during that period are sought
from local authorities as barometer
of general conditions during that
time. What the farmer paid for food,
clothing, house furnishings, produc-
tion equipment, feeds, seeds, fertliz-
er and spray material, and what he
received for various farm products
are questions asked in the county
QUESTIONABLE. Changes in quality,
size, weight, and so on in commodities
purchased are also sought in the farm
bureaus survey.
