I a RED CROSS SOTES iiiiiiRiairiiii Used riollilnsr Needed in Liberated Countries. The most comprehensive collection of used clothing, shoes and bedding ever undertaken will be conducted by the American Red Cross during the * week of March 24-31', when the American people will be asked to donate ten thousand tons of cast-off apparel to the helpless refugees in Europe, inAlnJins nnrfhorn SVanno Rplpium. ViUU1^5 uvi V.UV* u A AMMWt -0 ? Italy, Rumania, Serbia. Greece, Montenegro, Palestine, Albania and others; which in many instances is more acute even than the need for I food. I Every kind of garment for all ages L and sexes is urgently needed, accord ing to the recommendation of the Red F Cross European commission. In addition, piece goods, light, warm canton flannel and oter kinds of cloth from which to make garments for new& born babies, ticking, sheeting, blankly ets, woolen goods of any kind and p ^ ^ shoes of any sizes are asked for. Snran ipather is needed for repairing footwear. Since the clothes will be subjected to the hardest kind of wear, only garments of strong and durable material should be given; and while good garments will be welcome, it is rot necessary that they be in perfect condition. Many thousand destitute women in the formerly occupied territory are glad to earn small livelihood repairing gift clothing and adapting ^ it to the needs of their neighbors. It has been estimated that 1,250,000 people in Belgium and France alone were driven from their homes by the German invasion, and sinco the tex tile mills have been generally destroyed in the region to which they are returning it is practically impossible to purchase clothing or material even, if i the refugees had plenty of money. | Red Cross chapters are being asked I not to contribute useless and flimsy p articles, on account of the expense of L shipping and trouble of sorting.

Brown chairman of the clothing committee. Mrs. Brown will marshal her forces for this work, and the campaign will be put on through ?out the county beginning on Marcn 24 and extending through the 31st. Knitters and Sewers Are Seeded. There is c. great deal of wool in hand for the making of stockings and sweaters for the needy children of r Europe. Since it is imposslDie lor tne stricken people of those countries to purchase these articlts, the knitted L garments from the Red Cross will & - find immediate need. The small sweaters'will be worn as soon as reeeived, as the summer climate in con | tinental Europe is such that those I sweaters will be needed at once and MB during the entire summer in many cases. The women of the town ^nd counI W ty arc urged to come to headquarters to get work and get busy making these articles. The Newberry chap 9 ?A ter allotment is 40 sweaters ana <v pairs of stockings. The chapter has also accepted an allotment of 100 pinafores. Insofar as we can tell, this will be th?- last allottment to this chapter. These garments are to be finished and returned to the bureau of supplies hv Aiav 1st?13.000 grarments being the allotment of this division.

Lean years are for him no longer. Last year the average ol f farm earnings broke all records. Six i million farms in 1918 produced crops ~ j worth $12,280,000,000. . i This year it is estimated that a 1 greater wheat acreage than ever will r be sown. Naturally, the farmer is .; making the most of his opportunities, s i and with guaranteed wheal prices -! and high prices for everything hi 1! grows, the outlook for him is most s encouraging. And l Europe will fure i nish a market for his fat hogs and " i steers. ! It would be interesting, :f possiDie, ^ to assemble comparative statements . of the farmers' bank accounts now y; and five years ago, and the list ol a mortgages that have been cancelled. 1 And it would be more interesting peri haps to have a statement of the Lin-! erty Bonds now in the hands of these s, tillers of the soil. : | Very soon the farmer will have furt! ther opportunity to prove that he is j not without loyalty as well developed e ( as any man's. For another loan is JI almost in sight, a loan that will draw upon us all. B j' Because of his price guarantee of j S2.26 a bushel, Uncle fSam stands to j lose from 50 to 75 cents upon every a bushel of wheat harvested next seas5 on. Having given this guarantee to r the farmer, he will make it good, e That is Uncle Sam's way. But what b is Mr. Farmer going to do for Uncle e Sam in the Victory Liberty Loan? * i In every Liberty Loan to date the ei farmer, as a class, has bought less I bonds than men in other prosperous e classes. He has been able meantime to get more sugar and everything j else upon which the Government put j * a restriction, than others have. y j The big question now, when he f stands to cash in at a 25 per cent | premium upon his wheat crop, is what is he going to do next Liberty Loan drive? Some Liberty Loan officials are suggesting that the farmer should buy a flflO bond for each 100 bushels of wheat he sells to the government. He has made the profit and should | have no hesitancy in taking a high-1 grade security in payment for the dify j ference between what the governor j ment gets and what he receives for g his wheat. r mini i rn m rnnpft .
