More Seals Sold Than In Any Previous Year. The recent Red Cross seal campaign in Indiana was the most successful in history, according to information given out by the Indiana Society for the Prevention of Tuberculosis.

Despite unfavorable business conditions and unprecedented calls for relief both at home and abroad, the state wide3organization, which was built up by the society, sold, 2,294,41 seals, compared with a sale of 1,921,061 in 1913, a sale of 1,283,879 in 1912, and 1,244,441 in 1911. Thirtyone women's clubs in various parts of the state acted as county agents for the seals, selling a total of 296,701. Of this amount, $2,285.91 was sent to the state society and $681.10 was retained in the club treasuries for local anti-tuberculosis work.

Of the $22,944.14 realized in the state, $2,279.69 has been remitted to the American Red Cross, the management of the campaign cost $1,540.54, thus leaving $19,123.91 for anti-tuberculosis work in Indiana during 1915. Approximately $17,000 of this amount is in the treasuries of city and county anti-tuberculosis clinics, dispensaries and camps will be maintained this year, visiting nurses will be employed, educational campaigns will be conducted and in various other ways the hundreds of Hoosier volunteer anti-tu-berculosis workers will seek to reduce Indiana's death rate from the "white plague."

CULTIVATE EVERY ACRE THIS YEAR—MUCH IS NEEDED

Should World War End This Week Conflicting Nation Would Depend On United States

For a Year.

The United States department of agriculture, the state boards and the experts all over the country are urging the farmers of America to cultivate every available acre during the coming year. The war in Europe assures the sale of almost everything that can be raised.

Every article that is exported to feed the soldiers and the citizens and the stock of Europe means just that much less for home consumption therefore, even with big crops of everything, the prices will be high. If it is not a good crop year the farmer will at least raise enough for home use and will not have to pay the high prices that will prevail. Utilize every available acre for grain, grasses and vegetables. In many sections farmers are urged to try a double acreage of potatoes.

It should not be necessary, under proper conditions, to import potatoes into any agricultural county. Put the hens and the turkeys to work* and give them a square deal. Raise pigs, cattle, horses in as large numbers as the accommodations of the farm will justify and any losses that any farmer, planter or rancher may have sustained last year will be more than made good. The war in Europe may last for months or years, but while it continues there will be an active demand for everything we produce. Should the war end this week the nations engaged will need all our surplus products for a year at least. Take advice, for once, and do not permit good, tillable land to lie idle in 1915, is urged by the agricultural departments.

Lost—A large leather hand purse, with two pocketbooks in it, one a Greenfield Banking Company poeketbook containing one five and one ten dollar bill and certificates of deposit in Greenfield bank, on which was the name of Ben Flowers. The purse was lost between the Mt. Gilead Baptist church, northwest of Greenfield, and this city, on the Fortville road, or at the hitch rack on the west side of the old Masonic building on Pennsylvania street. A liberal reward will be paid for the return of purse to The Reporter office or to Banjamin Flowers, R. F. D. 2. The finder of this purse can not fail to know who the owner of the purse is. 13d-3-w-p (Advertisement.)
