U. §. RED CROSS AIDES T0 RETURN Lack of Funds Makes it Necessary for American Nurses and Doctors to Quit War Zones. TO BE WITHDRAWN IN OCTOBER WASHINGTON, July 26.—Amer- ican Red Cross uoctors and nurses will be withdrawn from the Euro- pean battlefields October 1 bocause of lack of funds to maintain them longer at their stations. It ta possible that the two units in Belgium, where the greatest need exists, will be continued, but thé other fourteen detachments will re- turn to the United States. ” The Serbian sanitary commission and other work supported by the special contributions will ge a8 tong as those contributions are a: ble, but the gen- eral fund contained in the United States, amounting to $1,560,000, will be exhausted on_October 1. « Maintained a Year, ““The American-Red Cross by Ootober 1 will have maintalned its personnel in each country a year with the exception of the Belglan units and the sanitary commission,” Says the statement made public today by Miss Mable T. Board- man, chairman of the Red Cross relief | ecommittee. % “The tour of duty required of each surgeon and nurse does not exceed six | monthe, #o that & number have returned and substitut have been sent. By October a large number of those mow | in Hurope will ‘ return, The cost of transportation of these surgeons and | nurses goirig and comihg makes a con- stant and considerable financial demand upon the Red Cross treasury. The montbly payroll is also a large item of expente, “In view of theee facts and because its funde are repidiy becoming exhausted the American Red Cross has decided by * October 1 of the present year to with- draw the pewsonnel now in Europe: pos- «ibly with the exception of the unite in | Belglum. Much as it regrets this neces- " mity, it realizes that no Red Oross of & neutral country ever before rendered #o long and extensive service in the way of personnel to nations engaged in war,'” Red Cross Sent. The Red , the report shows, sent to the warring countries 357 persons en- gaged in humanitarian enterprises. Of that number, seventy-one were surgeons and 22 nurses, while forty-three were members of the Serbian Sanitary com- mission. England, France, Russia, Ger- many, ‘Austria-Hungary, Serbia and Bel- gium each received ome or more units, which means one or more complete hos- pitals, with doctors, nurses and other attendants, and with all” supplies and equipment. Thoysands of wounded and sick have been cared for.

WHAT IS TO BE ESTABLISHED The college of agriculture of the University of Nebraska is beginning an experiment in connection with the feeding of lambs on a scale that is expected to determine some practical| results as to summer and l-!l feed- | ing of lambs. Prof. H. J. Gramlich | ot the department of animal hu--’ bandry, speaking of this undertak-| | ing, says: “We have just purchased a carload of Idaho Jambe here at, the university and | expect to start them on experiment within the next few weeks. The purpose of this | expertment will o to obtain figures on | the cost of producing 190 pounds of gain |on dry feed compared with producing it | where varlous pasture crops are used in | conjunction with corn. How They Wilj Feed. “A field ot corn has been seedéd to rape and ono group of the lambs will be fattened In this field. An adjoining field of corn, planted and cared for under iden- tically the same conditions, but mnot seeded to rape, will furnish the feed for a second group of the lambs. A third group will be on blue grass pasture, with & medium feed of corn. A fourth group will have a medium feed of corn and ac- cess 40 both a blue grass pasture and a rape pasture. A fifth group of the lambs will be put in a dry lot with shelled gorn and alfalfa bay for a ration. A aixth #roup will be put in & dry lot and fed corn and corn silage. A spventh group will be fed on shelled’ corn with rape pasture for roughage and an elghth group will be put.on a ration of corn and oil meal with access to a biue grass pas- ture, Some Established Notions. *“The experiment will prodbably continue until November. For many years the | popular bellef has been that gains could be made much cheaper on any class of fattenipg animals where the ration con- sisted of grain and grass, than where the ration consisted of grain. and dry roughness such as hay. Ldke- wise of recent years many people have felt satisfled that lambs turned in ocorn flelds in August and al- lowed to clean up the lower leaves, weeds and other roughness before getting to the ears made cheaper gaing than where they this experiment, we will be able to tell from our results just what benefit ao- crued from it by comparison with lambs running in & cornfield without the rape. lambs weighed fifty-threo pounds when purchased and are of aver- age quality, many of them showing a tendency toward black faces, The aim will be to care for them-in the same man- ner which the averagé farmer and feeder would and” thereby secufe results which would be directly comparable.’” Grand Council of i ‘Delta Gammas Now ~Meeting in Omaha Omaha s -enterfatning the grand coun- cll meeting of the national Delta Gamma sorority - at the home of Mise Ethel Tukey, who is edifor of the sorority pub- lcation, “The Anchora.” The counell of- | Gluskin knew that the lone woldier wan | ficers were honor guests at a luncheon | #iven at the Fleld club yesterday.

Be- tween Krylow and Sokal their attacks have been particularly severs, compell the Germans to send reinforcements, probably intended to support Von Mack- enzen, to meet them. Along the Vistula to the south and west of Warsaw there has been no change except in some positions evacuated by the Russians when they drew {n their line. While Warsaw Is under heavy pressure, the Austro-Germans have a lot of atiff work before them if they are to bring their operations to a successful ending by its capture. Attacks in North Dangero Many are of the opinlon that the dangerovs attacks at the moment are those which are being made in the provinces of Courland, Kovno and Grod- 10, at the lines of communication “be- tween Warsaw and the northern In- terior of Russia. Those attacks are Veing delivered for the most part by cavalry and will doubtiess be met in due time by the concemtration of Cos- sacks in these regions, The French report another success in the reglon of Vosges, where they claim to have taken more than 800 unwounded prisoners.
