Why the Red Cross Needs
Money
The Home Charity Fund of the Red
Cross must be reploni.-hed
Why? '' "
' llccause I.a Grande's Red Cross or
ganization is busy tho year round
taking care of the poor and needy of
the city; it is busy caring for the ex
service men, getting them their prop
er pay from the government and car
ing for them until such pay arrives.
It takes money to do these things.
It takes money to feed the hungry
man and his family until he can get
work; it lakes money to clothe those
who need clothing, to furnish fuel for
the home that is cold; It tukea money
to care for the sick, to send unfortun
ate people to relatives and friends in
other state's, anJ a hundred more nn-J
dertakings which tho La'.Crandc 'Red
Crbss is continually doing.
To bear the story of one week's
work done by Mm, Kay Catlin, the
Bocial worker of the Red Cross, .will
uoften the heart of any human, an I
IiiH purse will open eagerly to help
those who are down and out.
i The drive for three thousand dol
lars to carry the work through 192:!
Will begin next Monilny morning. On
Sunday ministers and Sunday school
i-uperintendents will make announce
ments in all the churches. Monday
niorning solicitor will call on every
onU to give a free will offering to this
Home Charity I'und. None of the
money leaves La (irandc it is nil us

way to help tho.c who need help. JCv
ery family in distress is well known
to Mrs. Catlin and there will be no
duplication of giving.
Prepare to meet the solicitors. Let
your heart go out to the children of
Im Grande who need food and clothing,
who, need fuel children that are up
against the cold, chilly blasts of win

'fireside remcmlKiil thero are many

'"Travel Week" Is' to be launch
d March 25.- iturlug this period
an Intensive campaign will ho wug

Chief among the activities of the
ek will he an exposition held in
the (.irand Central Palace In New

worth travelling to see, though its
ultimate object Is to arouse in

ping hoard will display its facilities
for travel to all parts of the world.
The department of Iho Interior will
feature tho groat parks of the

relation to American travelers in

will be panoramas, movit's, travel
talks and all sorts (of devices tu
stimulate public Interest in this
great agency of education and re-'
creation. 1
Whether there Is any mult in

BANTAM BREEQS. 1
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1C. '
The Bantam breeds galne.1 their
popularity as ornamental fowl and
as playthings fur children and
grownups, but, says the United
States Department of Agriculture,
they have also a distinct utility
value for ogg production for fam
ily use. There is nlwuys u good
demand for CKgs for hatching and
for breeding stock of good quality. ;
Because of their sm.ill sl.e these
pigmy breeds often have tho advan-!
tgae over larger fowls whore only
a very small space is availablo for
the flock. They ard easy lor cbil-:
dren to handle, and the ownership :
of a few Ilaiitauis often is tho be
ginning of a real Interest in poul-;
try raising. j
The various breeds of Dantums,
their characteristics, and mothers
of management are discussed in;
Farmers' UiiMetln 1 2G 1, The Ban
tam Breeds and Varieties, the fifth I
of a series on Standard Varieties
of Chickens. Tho various breeds,
says the bulletin, havu not been
raised with the Idea of egg pro
duction and, us a result, the aver
ago is not very high, probubly
around 100 eggs u year, although
individual lions have laid as many
as 1D0 or bven 175 eggs in a ye:tr.
The eggs vary In sire, as do the
different Bantafu Breeds, ranging
from 12 ounces -i dozen to IS or
20 ounces. The color of 4he eggs'
reus from white to dark brown. '
Some of tho breeds have' a tendency j
to lay for n fairly long period, but
the Brahmas, Cochins and Silkies'
are apt to bo broody. Since many j
or these kinds have been developed j
fro mthtf larger standard breeds :
iney nave many or tne same charac
teristics. Reports collocted from Bantam
breeders show that the average hen
will eat from 25 to 35 imuiuta of
fted In a ye'ar, which is about one- j
hair as much us a hen of the ;
Mediterranean breeds or one-third !
as much as n hen of the linger !
breeds would eat.
