ALABAMA LEADS
 IN RELIEF r OR
 FORMER SOLDIER
State Red Cross Chapters Have Spent Over $13,o00 In the Past Six Months,
 Figures Reveal

Atlanta, october 22-(Special.)- Alabama is far and away in the lead of the other eight states of the south ern division of the American Red Gross in the amount of money ex- pended by the organization for the relief of former soldiers and members of their families. This was made known following compilation of re- ports for the first six months of work since Alabama was transferred from the gulf to the southern divi- sion. No less than siS.bSS has been expended by Alabama Red Cross chapters during this period to aid men who served In the natl on's armed forces during the World war.
 This amount does not include one cent of money expended in their be- half by the government bureaus. The Red Cross work for ex-service IT on is entirely separate and distinct from that performed by the government, though 1t Is, to an extent, corollary.
 One Man's story.
 For Instance, a young man, who wore the silver star of n wounded veteran, but whose shoes were worn and whose clothes were rags, walked 10 the office of Red Cross secretary in an Alabama town. Be was hungry and discouraged. All he wanted was hand-out of sometning to eat such as he had received at farm houses as lie made his weary way through the country. He got his hand-out, but the secretary also got his story from him.
 T had work at tho shipyards at Chickasaw," he said. The job was too heavy for me. though, You see, l got rather a bad dose Of gas in tho service. and have never quite re- covered from Its effects. I don't know any special line Of work. have to make q living at heavy jobs and haven't the strength left to hold them"
 It developed that the boy was still suffering from a disability acquired in service He was totally ignorant of the fact that Uncle Sam was look ing for men In his fix to give them aid,
 The Red Cross cared for him until his papers could be put through. It kept track of him during the six months he was In government hos- pitai. When he came out the Red Cross had job waiting for him.
 Instead of riding the rods back home, as he had planned to do. he saved his pay and went back home 10 an aging and anxious mother, with his head In the air, clothes on his back. and money In his pocket, and with new determination to meet the world and It's problems.
 The figures quoted above by no means represent the total amount ex- pended In their behalf in the state by the Red Cross. Many chapters have failed to report work done. espe- .cially during the dullness of summer, when organization is lax. However, the work has been done and will con- tinue to be done. as demands for sol- dier relief are steadily increasing with the renewed efforts of the veterans bureau to reach every disabled ex- service man.

A Full Grown White Grub,

out the regions mentioned neither corn
nor potatoes should be planted on such
land, because these crops will almost
surely be severely injured if this be
done. Ground that was in pure clover
or even in corn last year is likely to
be quite safe for planting to corn this
year, because the beetles which are
the parents of the white grubs do not
usually lay their eggs in such crops.
A good rotation of crops to escape
white grub injury is as follows: First
year, oats or barley; second year,
clover; third year. corn. Timothy or
other grasses harbor white grubs from
year to year, and therefore, in case
they are grown, the land producing
them should not be planted to corn,
at least the first year after it is
broken from the sod.
Farmers Bulletin $40 contains full
information on white grubs, and may
be obtained free on application to the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture.

FEEDING BARLEY TO HORSES
Results Obtained in Experiments With
Eight Perchercn Mares on
Government Farm.

A test to compare the relative
value of light and heavy weight bar
ley as feeds for teamwork horses was
made last year by the United States
Department of Agriculture, at the ex-
perimental farm, Beltsville, Md.
Eight Percheron mares were used
in the test, two receiving lightweight
barley, two heavyweight barley, and
four receiving oats as a check. The
test was continued % weeks. The
mares were used IN all the routine
work Of the farm, which included the
heavy field work of blowing, etc, dur
ing the spring months. The barley
used was the commercial grade Of
heavy barley (rolled) and light bar
ley (rolleD, the heavy barley weigh
ing 47.6 and the light 407 pounds to
the bushel, according to the tested
weights determined by grain lnvesti-
cations, bureau of markets. The rela-
tive gains or losses in weights Of the
mares fed on barley and those fed
on oats were practically the same, and
there was no indication that either
feed possessed outstanding merit over
the other
The weights of the mares fed on
light barley remained more constant
than the weights Of the mares fed on
heavy barley, and the former seemed
to be slightly more thrifty than the
latter, although the advantage seemed
slight.

ENRICH SOIL BY TRENCHING
English Gardeners Take Great Pains
in Preparing Land-HeaVy
Yields Are Secured.

The home gardeners of England take
great pains in preparing their soil,
even going to the extent of throwing
the surface soil to one side and then
spading manure into the subsoil to a
depth of IA to 16 inches After the sub
soil is so treated the surface soil is re-
placed and great qualities of rotted
manure mixed with it. Itlis process
is known as "trenching." 1t results in
heavy yields of vegetables and enables
the crops to withstand drought Pc
Rod much better than where the soil
is not broken so deeply. Details of the
preparation of garden soils are dis
cussed in bulletins of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
which are free on request.

APPLYING WATER TO GARDEN
OF Much Importance That Work
Should Be Done Without Injury to
Any Of Various Plants.

In applying water to garden crops II
is important that the work should be
done thoroughly without injury to the
plants. An occasional thorough water
ing, with at least one good cultivation
after each watering, will give better re-
suits than more frequent sprinkling of
the surface. Home gardeters have in
many instances fitted up simple sys-
TENS for irrigating their gardens that
have proved great help in carrying
the crops over dry periods.
For Information on watering and
caring for home gardens, write to the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture for bulletins on the subject. They
