To aid the victims of warfare being
waged upon America and her isIani
possessions, the American Red Cross
has issued an appeal for a $50000,00G
war fund, Chairman Norman H. Davis
announced from the national headquar-
tiers in Washington.
Mr.. Davis urged men, women and
children to give to this mercy fund
through their local Red Cross Chap
tiers. These funds will support the
Chapters war work with the families
of men in the military services, as we'll
as the broad relief program of the
national Red Cross.

dent of the American Red Cross. is
sued proclamation urging all citizens
to give to the Red Cross war fund.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1942-02-19

In launching the appeal, Chairman
Davis said:
"There are millions of our citizens
who desire today to demonstrate their
will to victory over the enemy. Not all
can be in the armed forces, and not
all can volunteer their services for
humanitarian work, but all can volun-
teer their dollars to arm the Red Cross
to be their representative at the scene
OF battle and distress.
To-day is the day to demonstrate
our high morale, our unity, our deter
mination not alone to support our
President and our fighting men at the
front, but also to insure to our wound
ed, homeless and suffering fellow citi-
zens in our Pacific Islands that we
stand one hundred per cent ready to
aid them through the Red Cross"

Heat Saves Loss

Another means Of cutting down the
remaining loss is to place some typo
of heat in one corner Of the room in
which the litter is kept so that the
pigs in the first few days do not be-
come chilled and die. Some Of the
more progressive pig-raising farmers
get around this danger from cold by
arranging the filters in milder or
warmer weather.
In Maryland, farmers raise an av-
erage Of six pigs, which compares
favorabIy with other sections of the
country. Maryland, too, is said TO
have the advantage of good weather
at the time the pigs are usually far
rowed.
Increased hog production to meet
war needs may be obtained in two
ways. DR.. Lcinbach declares. One is
through an increase in brood stock
and the other through increase in the
size Of the litter by more efficient
preventative measures cutting down
the mortality.
The average Maryland farmer, the
animal-husbandry expert says, must
IN these times, raise at least six pigs
to the litter. If, by preventative meas
ures, he can raise just one more
seven-this may be the difference be-
tween profit and loss on the litter.

case Of tankage, for instance, the
steaming reduces any danger from
this source.
DR.. Leinbach, in discussing the sit
uation, says he feels there is a very
definite need for legitimate increase
in the hog industry in Maryland. This,
however, he says, will call for the
very best management practices 50
that the farmers who enter the bust
ness will remain in it.
Infant Mortality
One-third of the pigs narrowed in
the United States never reach wean-
ing age This means a SO 1-3 per cent
gross loss for the hog raiser right a.
the start
In other words, the hog raisers in
this class-and this is considered the
average-have two strikes upon them
right at the start, so far as profit is
concerned. They are in the amazing
position, Dr.. Leinbach explains, OF
having to make net profit after
tossing away one-third of their gross
return.
Fifty per cent of the pig loss be-
tween narrowing and weaving, ac-
cording to Dr.. Leinbach, is due to the
SOW laying on her brood. This can be
reduced to minimum by the placing
Of guard rails in the pen in which
the brood sow and the litter are con-
fined.

velopment of his about . to : be
adopted country.
Writing of his first visit to Amer
lea in 1925 in his autobiography, Mr..
Stravinsky says: II want to begin
by bearing witness as a musician
to the fact that in the United States,
side by side with a pronounced
weakness for TIE freakish and the
sensational, found a real taste for
the art of music" And somewhat
later ne SPEAKS of "this new, hardy,
naive. yet immense country"
Just why Mr.. Stravinsky should
choose to tamper with the National
Anthem to prove his gratitude is not
clear. To be sure, the music of the
great hymn has been criticized at
intervals and it has never stood as
a prime example of great musical
writing. But it is music that means
everything to us in its symbolism,
even in its commonplace harmoni-
zation and its unsingable phrases.
Poll Taken.
1t is quite possible that better ac-
quaintance with this country has
not dispelled the composers first
impression of our naivety or weak
nes for the freakish that he
believes the changes of note value
and the introduction of new har-
monies will especially appeal to us.
1t is true, as a further note in the
leaf1et stated, that there is no off,
cial version for symphony orchestra
of the hymn, but there has been no
universal complaint so far, and as
played the beloved, familiar strains
have all the power they were meant
to have of stirring the heart and
blood with strongest patriotism.
1t will be interesting to know the
response of yes" or no" to the Il
would like to hear the Stravlnsky

programs" with which the leaf1et
concluded.
Being rather in a dither about
Stravinskv's improvement of the an
them made one almost forget the
very interesting numbers with which
DR.. Kinder regaled his audience.
He widened the scope Of musical
appreciation considerably by pre-
senting the symphony No. 4 in E
Flat" by the Austrian composer,
Anton Bruckner, as the Introductory
number. 1t has long been felt that
a special type of listener was neeoeo
for Bruckner's music and that the
ordinary symphonic audience would
not care for it. Hence the limited
acquaintance with his symphonies.
Bruckner's Music.
Judging from the Fourth" Bruck-
ners music is neither dense or
strange. nor is it overwhelming. In
its larger moments, of which there
