Fieser, vice chalraian in charge of domestic operations. , "Every Red Cross chapter is being, asked to play a part In this campaign," Mr. Fieser said. "Hazards 4n the various communities will be pointed out. The children in our schools throughout the country will be given a list of the home hazards and asked to enroll parents or relatives in the fight against them." ; \ Nearly five million men, Women; and children were temporarily disabled In £he homes of America last year by accidents, officials 6f the National Safety Council have revealed. Most of the.accidents in which persons were killed jand injured could have been,prevented, according to this safety agency, this fact alone largely motivating the Red Cross driv* for accident elimination. Active cooperation of social, civic, educational, veterans', and other groups has been secured. Red Cross Inspection 'forms" of home check lists will be distributed: to homes where there are no children, with the help of these organizations. Due to inaccessibility and lack of compensation coverage, little or no pioneering has been done in tbe field of farm safety, the Red Cross states. However, more people were accidentally killed in agricultural pursuits last year than in any other occupation, making the need for safety education and farm home inspection apparent. Other agencies now active in the accident- prevention field point to the fatet" that, because of its nearly 13,000 chapters and branches, the -Red Cross has a unique opportunity to successfully promote a project of this nature. , Home accidents injure many inch's than do automobile accidents; they kill . nearly as many/ claiming an average of about 80 lives daily. In terms of dollars and ceats, for the practical minded, .home accidents cost more than $1,000 per minute. , Accidents of all types are Public Enemy No. 4. Only three diseases cause as many deaths each year, heart disease, cancer, and cerebral hemorrhage. "The home is not the place of safety It is commonly supposed to be," said Mr. Fieser in commenting on the new Red Cross service to the community. "The Red Cross, as a part of its chartered obligation to prevent death and alleviate suffering, is conducting this humanitarian program to cut down the mounting toll of avoidable personal in jury and death in the homes of the country." The annual Red Cross roll call, running from Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Day, Is one of the means of backing such a campaign. All citizens of the United States are ofTered the opportunity to Join and assist In the work of the organization. Red Cross Has Busy Year; Statistics Impressive; Services Varied Figures gathered at random from the year's report of the American Red Cross reveal the magnitude of the work being carried on by that organization. Red Cross workers assisted 54.30& veterans; 687 Red Cross Public Health nurses' paid 921.455 visits to 186,326 patients; 98,441 first aid certificates were issued while 46,1>93 persons were trained in' life saving. Volunteer workers produced 3,102, 843 Burgical dressings, with 80,901 volunteers being on active duty throughout the year. FOR SALE--Used Electric Washers. Carey Electric Shop. McHfcnry.

H. Lehmann, Hea<l Department Agricultural Engineering, University of - . Illinois.--WNU Service. With condition of the state's 7,500,- ()00 acres of corn, mostly late planted, continuing below average, trench silos bid fair to become an Important factor in the preservation and use of soft corn which may be prevalent In many sections this fall. Because of heavy spring rains and the delayed planting of corn In prac- \ycally all partis of the state, there Is danger that frost will catch much of the corn this fall be/dre it Is matured. Soft corn is difficult to store In crtbs, bins or barns, but makes excellent silage. glnce It is cheap, simple to construct and costs less td fill, the trench silo appears to be one of the best means by which farmers can store this soft; Immature corn. The only construction equipment needed Is a plow, slip and tractor or team of horses. Two men with this equipment can construct a trench silo jn from two to four days, depending upon the size. The silo should be constructed with a slight slope In the sides and oo high ground where there Is les* likelihood of standing water. If a bank or slope is available, the*^ lower end of the "trench" may be Jeft open as a natural drain. Silage must be weH packed and kept higher in the middle than on the sides during the filling process. This causes the silage to settle in a rounded manner after the fashion of a hay stack. Covering the silage with about a three or four inch layer of finely cut straw followed by a layer of dirt will help keep out air and prevent spoilage. Easy Test Aids Breeder of Dry-Weather Wheats One of the questions to be answered In developing new wheat varieties Is: How \?ill they stand dry weather? The question has been answered in the past by observing the new varieties in experimental plots during dry years. But in wet years no information was obtained on drouth resistance. This made the breeding program more difficult and slowed it up materially. Now plant breeders of the ^United States Department of Agriculture have found that the rate at which a wheat plant loses water through its leaves Indicates its drouth resistance. Water loss, or transpiration, has been determined by cutting the plants at different stages of growth, sealing the out ends at once, and weighing at Intervals. The method has been developed and checked with varieties of known ability to stand drouth, These were found to lose water least rapidly. For example, Hope wheat, susceptible to drouth, loses moisture more rapidly than Baart and Kubanka, which are resistant to drouth. Interest in the drouth resistance of wheat, developed during dry seasons, often has been lost In a series of wet years. The development of resistant varieties, nevertheless, is & problem of much Importance to the wheat farmer. A simple method of determining drouth resistance--no matter what the rainfall may. be--such as this measuring rate of water loss, will aid the development of wheats more tolerant to dry weather.

To insure efficient cooling of cream so that It will stay sweet until marketed, a cooling tank should be arranged so that cold water from the well is forced to the bottom of the tank and allowed to flow out at the top. This water can be carried into a live stock tank. Fresh cream should not be kept In a separate container and stirred constantly until it Is thoroughly cooled. All utensils should be kept clean and sterilized. Cream week. Donkeys for Funds Al rs. James U.
