During the twenty months, ending February 28, 1919, the American people contributed $393,8438,000 for Red Cross relief suffering here and abroad, and for the services rendered to our fighting men, according to a report of the combined financial operations of the American Red Cross from June 1917 until the retirement of the war council in February last, which has just been received at northern division headquarters. The total expenditures for that period amount to $272,- 676,000 of which only $4,360,000 was used for ‘the operation of the administrative bureaus of the national organization. Due to the fact that many of the responsible positions have ! been filled by volunteer workers, and that salaried workers have received a smaller remuneration than they would receive in private life the operation of the entire organization had been reduced to-a minimum. . At the retirement of the war council there was $127,- 502,000 in the Red Cross treasury. At the present time that balance has been substantially reduced by the wide activities of the Red Cross incident to the demobilization of the army, g the relief necessary in Europe, and the uncertain value of stores of relief supplies. A drive for funds to complete the war obligation of the ¢ Red Crogs here and abroad will be held during the Third Red .+ Cross Roll Call, November 2 to 11. Money raised by northern . division, chapters will be used for local Red Cross work, how- ever, as the. division has already contributed its quota for the national and European activities. N —————e . GETTING THE FLOCK IN WINTER QUARTERS. As fall and. winter eggs will be secured from the pullet flock, these fowls should be put into winter quarters in the poultry house as éarly as possible so that they will get the habit of laying in the nests. Leghorns will begin egg production at five and one- half months and Rocks and Reds at six and one- half. It is not profitable to allow them to run about at will each day, to be caught each night and taken to the poultry -house. ‘“Keep them in,” is the advice of N. E. Chapman, poul- try“specialist, “but keep them busy scratching by supplying grain and litter and an bundance of green feed, so they may lack no part of the ration to-which they are accustomed. . “The old hens or breeders should have a separate room and be allowed the freedom of the farm. They must be fed a different ration and have different management from the pullet flock. A good laying ration for pullets is two parts of cracked corn and one each of wheat and oats as scratch feed, fed at the rate of one point for ten chickens, morning and night, in deep litter. The pullets should have access at all times to an egg mash composed of equal parts by weight of cornmeal, ground oats, bran, shorts and beef scraps. If skim- milk or buttermilk is available, the amount of beef scraps can be reduced one-half. “When the pullets have become accustomed to their new quarters they may be allowed to range about the farm, but should be carefully watched at night and made to return to the poultry house.” ) i s If Teddy the Second wants to‘follow in the footsteps of his dad of the Big Stick he will have to swing something more terrifying than a toothpick. el Lol “Into each life some rain must fall.” But in some it is a torrent, while in others nothing but a drizzle. —_— The old time soap box orator has about disappeared.

Hart’'s newest Artcraft picture, €% iwhich will be shown at the Grand T H E A T E R s' theatre tonight and tomorrow, will i be found one of the strongest stories ever employed for a scenario. It was written by Chas. A. Seltzer and pic- turized by Lambert Hillyer. It tells about a Westerner who sees a horse thief shot inthe back, who af- terwards kills his assailant. A letter tells ‘,Sq are Deal Sanderson that the thiefjisg brother of Mary Bransford, ownet of a ranch in New Mexico, who writes that she is beset by a man who is trying to steal her property. Squgre Deal goes to her rescue and poses as her brother, whom she had not seen from childhood. He 'saves her, gets into and out of many bad scrapes, but finally bests the villian and his band and wins the girl as his reward. - MEN. WOMEN AND MONEY. If you are interested in seeing what can befall a girl who tried to adventure in society without money, go and see Ethel Clayton in her latest Paramount picture, ‘“Men ‘Women, and Money,” which is here today and tomorrow, at the Elko theatre. She was always “a spoiled child,” petted and pampered, her every wish gratified. Now she is broke, flat up against it. On one side are the cred- itors hounding her for their money. On the other side is the male of ques- tionable character who offers to pay her bills. It’s what she does to that fellow that’ll make you think ‘“Men, Wom- en and Money” is one of the best pic- tures you ever saw. A chapter in “The Man of Might” will also be shown in the Elko to- night and tomorrow. ONE BUSY GENTLEMAN. He was an undertaker, a butcher, a real estate man and a biacksmith, and he kept each establishment open for -business all the time. He was also a member of the village council and held the post of watchman in various lodges. This is one of the characters who support Dorothy Gish in “I'll Get Him Yet,” in which she is appearing at the Elko theatre this week.

But, Van should not be so hasty in pro- claiming his discovery, for the Amer- ican Legion, or the “boys,” have also made a discovery, and find a close relationship between him and the “slackers.” Enough said!

I just suffered agonies and would bite my lips to keep from crying out with pain at times.. I just couldn’t digest any- thing but milk and a little beef tea once in a while. Then my nerves be- gan to give way and even the rustle of a paper on the floor would make me tremble like a leaf. I couldn’t do any of my housework and at night I was so nervous and in such pain that I couldn’t sleep and finally got so weak and rup down that I could hard- ly walk. Then I read about Tanlac and persuaded my husband to get it for me. : “I honestly believe that if I hadn’t taken Tanlac when I did, I wouldn’t have been here now to tell the story. 1 began to build up right away after I had taken one bottle. My stomach was relieved, the gas stopped form- ing and I began to eat and enjoy it. ‘Now I can eat three good meals every day-and never: have :& bit of. trouble. .- I came uptown thg other day for the first time this year and enjoyed the walk. . I can getjaround and do.all my housework, am getting stronger every day and think it is just wonderful that I found a medi- cine that would do all this for me. Everybody ought to know about Tan- lac and what it will do for a person lwho suffers like I did, and I am glad to tell how it helped me.” Tanlac is sold In Bemidjl by the City Drug Store, in Kelliher.by Mrs. R.
