As everyone knows, feels and
sees the importance of the nation
wide Red Cross maintenance, he
cannot help but feel it his duty to
do all in his power to assist in
every way this-worthy cause.
' Today, in this world of strife
and ruin tho only living symbol of
humanity, Christianity and broth
erly love is the Red Cross, which
knows no creed or colors and is
ever ready to help friend and foe.
This great work must be
financed. Out of the money raised
at the first drive about a year ago
which passed the one hundred mil
lion mark there is left but ten
million dollars in the treasury.
This goes to show there is more
money needed immediately or
Humanity will fail.
The national campaign is on this
week from May 20th to next Mon
day, May 27th, to raise $100,000,
000. Of this Perrysburg and Per
rysburg township are asked to
subscribe $5,000.
Tho committees that conducted
tho Third Liberty Loan campaign
are designated by the government
to solicit for this Red Cross drive
and all future war work that will
occur during the period of the war.
Give freely and willingly, Per
rysburg and township must again
show their patriotism and loyalty
by raising our portion of our gift
to the sufferers for the greatest
cause on earth.

The Fort Meigs Commission ha9
secured the services of Mr. John
JSmith as caretaker of tho Fort.
Mr. Smith has come with good

edly give the care of the grounds
his best efforts, and will endeavor
to accommodate all visitors in
every possible way.
Parties will bo served with din
ners on a few hours' notice by

tention by Mrs. Smith, who has
had considerable experience in
this direction. Soft drinks, cigars,
etc., also lunches can be had at

Meigs Park is their park and that
it is being maintained by the state
of Ohio for the pleasure and
recreation of evryone.
Chureh and Sunday school pic
nics, automobile parties, etc., are
always welcome.
They ask only that tho interests
of the park be kept in mind and
that no depredations be com
mitted. There is no doubt of the coining
popularity of this park and it
shall be tlie future aim of the com
mission as well as of the Maumee
Valley Pioner and Historical As
sociation 'to secure funds for the
continued improvement of the
grounds and to make this one of
the finest parks in the state.

THE Y. M. C. A. ON
THE BATTLE FRONT.
In their fight against the Kaiser,
American soldier boys under shell
fire in France are being given all
possible comforts and assistance,
according to an announcemnt just
received here from the National
War Work Council of the Y. M. C.
A. At the present time there are
more than 250 American Y. M. C.
A. secretaries under shell fire.
These men have been with Persh
ing's troops from the time they
landed on- foreign soil.
A total of $5,000,000 is being xv
pended monthly by the Army Y.
M. C. A. in its work for the Ameri
can troops at home and abroad.
There are 2,500 Y. M. C. A. work
ers in France and England arid
3,000 in American camps.
Because of the increasing need
for men in this service and the
force necessary to operate the en
tire canteen system in France, ef
forts are being made to enroll at
least 1,000 more business and pro
fessional men of high standing
who are willing to go to France
for every kind of Y. M. C. A.
service before July 1.
It is estimated that 8,000,000
feet of film are being exhibited
weekly to the soldiers at home and
abroad. A recent shipment of
athletic equipment for the troops
in France consisted. of 79,680 base
balls, 19,000 bats, 10,000 gloves
and mitts, boxing gloves, volley
balls, and various other kinds of
apparatus for promoting the play
spirit among the troops in their
Ieisuro hours. .
The1 Y. M. C. A. has established a
chain of huts and dugouts along
the front lines occupied by Ameri
an troops "over there" and is
meeting the needs of the Sammies
as they take their places along
side their Allies. Tho Y. M. C. A.
huts on the Russian front have
been demolished by German guns
and the 150 secretaries there have
retired before the advance of the
Huns and are now established in
Siberia awaiting an opportunity to
return to Russia.

Best Remedy for Whooping Cough.

the whooping cough I gave him Cham

kept his cough loose and relieved him
of those dreadful coughing spells. It
is the only cough medicine I keep in
the house because I. have the most con
fidence in it." Th& remedy is also
good for colds and croup.

Millet is given as one of the an
nual forage crops to be used as an
emergency hay crop, in the month
ly bulletin of tho Ohio Experiment
Station. It may be seeded in lato
June or even in early July and
yield a satisfactory hay crop be
fore frosts come.
German millet has yielded 4.4
tons of liny per acre during seven
years' tests at the Experiment
Station. The Japanese Barnyard
has yielded slightly more forage,
but it is coarse and less palatable.
Hungarian millet has yielded 2.G
tons per acre during tho same
period. This variety is adapted to
culture oij thinner ground than is
the German millet.
Millet may be broadcasted and
covered with a harrow or drilled
with a grain drill. It must be
covered shallow. Three or four
pecks of the Hungarian and Ger
man varieties will seen an acre,
while only two or three pecks is
ncded of the Japanese Barnyard.
Millet is handled for hay much
tho same as timothy.
CLOVER AND ALFALFA
HAY TESTED FOR COWS.
"The superiority of alfalfa over
clover seems to lie in the fact that
it yields a larger tonnage per acre,
and is a better appetizer or condi
tioner, rather than in better re
sults per ton, when fed to dairy
cows," says a bulletin from the
Ohio Experiment .Station where
four tests of these legumes for
milk production were conducted.
The bulletin continues: "If
cows are not limited, they consume
more feed with the alfalfa ration,
but they do not produce a corre
spondingly larger amount of milk.
The cows held up in weight better
while on alfalfa than, while on
clover.
"Where the milk increased with
tho alfalfa there was not a corre
sponding increase of fat, and
where there was no difference in
milk flow ther was a slight in
crease in fat with the clover.
"From these results it seems
that dairymen are not warranted
in paying much more per ton for
alfalfa hay than for clover hay if
the two are of equal quality.
"The difference in tonnage per
acre will justify considerable ef
fort to grow alfalfa, at least on a
small scale. In many parts of
Ohio it will be advisable to rely
principally on the clover crop until
farmers learn to grow alfalfa well
on a small scale."
SHALLOW CULTIVATION
BEST FOR CORN CROP.
Cutivating corn shallow and
level saves moisture and adds a
few more bushels to the yield.
