Every Veteran Needing Help Gets Individual Attention of Sym- ; pathetic Workers. ?? i When on November 11 the world halts to observe the fourth anniversary of Armistice Day, and the Amerl can Red Cross inaugurates Its Annual ; Roll Call for the enrollment of the 19-23 membership, the people of the United States may well pause to think I of the unparalleled contribution to the cause of peace made by our Army and Navy in the World Wur. The glory of ! It Is a common tradition; bnt the i wounds of war remain. They are not healed in a day, In a yenr, nor In four : years. And on Armistice Day there ' will be under treatment In Government i hospitals over 25,000 ex-service men, broken physically by wounds, exposure, nervous strain and exhaustion Incident to their service in the war. The Government without stint Is undertaking to furnish these disabled men with the compensation and medical care to which they are entitled, yet their especial care Is a duty of the Red Cross. Why? Because the Government cannot handle the cases of ex-service men Individually; It must handle these men In bulk under a standardized policy. The Government has neither the authority, the fundi or the equipment for working out the problem of the Indlvlduul man. There Is where the American Red Cross uuus us greatest neia tor service, main* through Its very active Chapters in reaching the disabled man with immediate practical help, assisting his family while his claim is emerging from the process of adjustment, furnishing articles of comfort, funds lo tide over the difficult periods, the friendly touch of personal encouragement, helpful recreation and worry-dispelling anitisement. It Is the warm hand of sympathy and understanding which the Amerlcun Ited Cross extends to the majority of these disabled ex-service men. some of tliein friendless in the whirl of life, thousands of them with wives and children dependent upon them, and hundreds of them frequently helpless In the face of grim necessity. 2,679 Chapters Aiding Veterans In this work, upon whose accomplishment the American Red Cross is urging a record-breaking enrollment in the Roll Cull which opens on Armistice Day and closes with Thanksgiving Day, 2,070 Chapters In all parts of the country are engaged. This is KoO more than were working for ex-service men laat year when approximately #1 A AAA AAA I.A K-. ?iu,>nnv"v >ia? ri[iriiuru u,y llie i> lttionnl Organization ana ttie Chapters working together In harmonious unity. For the current fiscal year National Headquarters appropriated $3,030,692.90, an Increase of $305,560.84 over the amount spent for the work among ex-service men in the year ended June 30 last. Since it is estimated that tiie Chapters will expend close to $7,000,000 from their own funds, the grand total of Red Cross expenditures for this single work is expected again to reach the $10,000,000 marksby June 30, 1923. v Hospital and District Office Work During the fiscal year a total of over 1,000 persons, paid und volunteer, has been engaged In Red Cross duty in hospitals or district offices of the U. S. Veterans' Bureau. An average of 8,000 ( 4 new cases requires definite and particular attention each month. The demand for Chapter-made articles for ' hospital patients is constant. During last year Service Claims and 1 Information Service at National Head- * quarters handled 37,200 compensation tnd insurance claims, 24.560 allotment ?1 allowance cases, and 9.700 miscellaneous claims. Since February, 1919, It has disposed of 6-1,174 allotment checks payable to veterans which the Post Office Department reported undo- I i iiverahle. j 1 The Chapter is the nnlt of the Red J 89 organization which is accessible ^ to every disabled veteran or ids fam- ] ily. Between July 3, 1921, and June 30, 1922, the Chapters had reported 1,005,079 Instances of service to ex-service men and their dependents, at a cost COlllllUICU IMMU irji"l IfJ IH'VT a I linilll ui more than $r?,340,(KX>. The basis of this far-reaching work of the Red Cross Is the Individual needs of the disabled veteran to the wnd that he may obtain his rights under the law, that his especial wnnts may he Immediately supplied, that his own and his family's situation may be rendered happy and cheerful, and that their outlook for the future may visualize Incentives for Independent and fruitful effort.

Haynie -lave You Planted Green Feed For Your Cbiclcene? t, Green feeds are a very necessary J >art of a hen's ration and should be lupplied to her 6hen confined in imall yards and during the winter] I ifter the frost has killed the vegeation. Free range or large yards! :ept in grass, alfalfa or clover will' furnish ideal green feed. Where' (mailer yards are used, they should ae divided, if possible, into two parts and used alternately, planting the vacant yard several times with a quick-growing crop, such as rape, >ats, wheat, rye or barley. In this way, green feeds that can be fed, es pecially in winter, are sprouted oats, alfalfa meal, chopped alfalfa, clover hay, cabbge, and mangle beets. Cabbages can be fed by suspending them by means of a cord hung up in the poultry house and the birds receive some exercise while eating. The beets are usually split and stuck on a nail on the side wall of the poultry house. When oats are used for sprouting, they should be of a good grade. Soak them over night in warm water and spread out Va to 1 inch thick on trays having perforated bottoms. Water the oats thoroughly each day and turn the trays around, so as to bring each side near the light, in order to encourage an even growth. Keep ihe trays in a temperately heated place, and stir the oats each day until the sprouts begin to form. Sprouted oats are from 2 to 4 inches high. The sod is removed, broken into chunks, and fed in troughs or on clean litter. From one to two spuare inches for each hen should be fed at noon. Why Green and Succulent Feeds Are Necessary. 1. Fowels need succulence to keep them in condition and to keep the digestive tract in working order. 2. It acts as a tonic and stimulates the appetite. 3. It furnishes a large amount of water and thus adds bulk to the ration. 4. It is undoubtly one of the factors causing egg production. J>. It improves the fertility and hatching qualities of the egg, and the vitality of the chick.
