MING WAR ON DISEASEN1EMACE American Red Cross Announces Budget of $48,200,000 For Current Year.

NEW DISASTER RELIEF PLAN Contlnuane of Heavy Work Abroad Deemed Necessary to Protect United Statee $21,000,000 Lett Than Latt Year. A program of relief and serlce toward which appropriations of $48,200,00i) have been made has been outlined for the American Red Cross for the fiscal year, July 1, 19'20, to July i. 1921, according to official announcement by national headquarters of the organization at Washington. The figures for 1020 21 are 521,000.000 below those of 1910-20, In which $00,400,000 was spent. Important among the Items of the budget for the present year Is the appropriation of $31,500,000 for relief In foreign lands, which Includes $11,000.000 In purchased sappl'es on hand and not distributed. Must Protect United States. This will enable the American Red Cross to continue Its humanitarian effort to aid stricken peoples to re-establish themselves, to fljfbt the disease epidemics which threaten many countries and to efface largely the remainlnj traces of the blight left by the World War. It Is regarded as social as well as physical sanitation on a large scale that will have a direct bearing on future conditions la America. Central Europe, the chief tafferer from the conflict, today Is facing another winter of famine, pestilence and ruin. Typhus decreased much during the summer months where last winter It had lta greatest stronghold, bat physicians who Investigated the situation at the behest of the League of Re4 Cress Societies have given their unqualified opinion that this coming winter will see a recurrence on an unprecedeated scale. The Red Cress feels It must continue preventive measures abroad to keep this and other deadly maladies from the United States. Millions foe Work at Horn. When the disease was sweeping Ceatral Europe last winter the American Red Cross, with the aid ef the governments of afflicted nations, undertook the fight against it. Hospitals were established wherever possible and food and clothing were distributed to the undernourished populations, who by reaBon ef their undernourishment were easy prey to the epidemics. Wbera disorganization contribated last year te the great Inroads made by the disease, by virtue of its knowledge of the disease and the presence of well established hospital centers, the American Red Cross this year will undertake the work with a new confidence. Including the total of $11,000,000 In supplies left from the lat fiscal year, the $31,500,000 is $21,000,000 leta than the expenditures for 1919-20. Appropriations for domestic activities total $16,700,000. The largest Item of this "home" budget Is $7,800,000 for civilian relief work. This Includes service and assistance for families of soldiers, sailors and marines, and work Incidental to disaster. Of the total appropriation for civilian relief, $5,000,000 Is held In reserve for the carrying eat of actaal disaster relief. Reduced Overhead Expense. The Red Cros invariably is the first thought of a commur.gy visited by calamity. With this In mind, it was determined by the Executive Committee in preparing the budget of 1919-20 to have a fixed reserve fund from which to draw in these Instances. For assistance to soldiers, sailors and marines In hospitals and in camps this ytar $1,900,000 has been set aside. Four million two hundred thousand dollars has been appropriated for improvement of health and prevention ef disease throughout the United States during the current twelve months. The Red Cross Is co-operating fully with tbe United States Health Service in this work and through Its Junior Red Cross is doing much to spread among children the principles of sanitation. An appropriation of $1,000.000 has been made for developing the peace time program of the Red Cross by service to Its chapters In all regions. The appropriation ef $48,200,000 Is exclusive of the local expenditures ef the 3,000 or more chapters. Administration "expecses this year will be $1,800,000. Last year they were $2,300,000. on't Wait for workers to come and ask yea for a renewal of your membership. Send in your dollar to the nearest local chapter of the American Red Cross.

I National Crop Improvement Servlca.l HTT LACK rust lifvs so destroys! splendid wheat crops of the Northwest so many years in wiccefislon that an emergency exists which, should be met by fighting It In every possible way," says Mr. Fruukllu Edwards, chairman Spring Wheat Crop Improvement Association. "There are two possible remedies: We must breed a nist revisunt wl.eut of id milling quality mid v.-e must systematically eradicate every barberry bush in the country." Dr. Staknian of Minnesota says that there is iiot a wheat farm in the Dakotas or Minnesota which is more than ten miles from barberry, and yet the farmers as yet have not taken this danger and remedy seriously. Some years ago Tr. Bolley of North' Dakota selected a few kernels of wheat of different appearance from some durum, which he was preparing for breeding, plots. He segregated this vjheat and found that it lmd a marked resistance to rust. He had but a few kernels of it, hut this year Is putting it out in experimental plots la different parts of the state and hopes by another season that he will have enough for dissemination generally.

ni loaf In volume of 202 cubic inches, compared with 196 our usual standard. It tested out 13.1 per cent dried gluten, very strong and elastic. The quality of the gluten, however, using 100 as the standard, is 05. The average gluten content of North Dakota Marquis this year is ranging from 11.3 to 13. H. quality running from ICR) in the eastern part to 110 iu the westera part of the state. Kota wheat seems to produce a loaf of little better volume tfcaa Marquis wheat. The texture and general appearance are good. "As yet we have made only a few tests with, Kota," says J. A. Clark, agronomist, bureau of plant industry, "and from these it appears to be a very good milling and bread making wheat, comparing favorably with Marquis. YV'e expect to have a considerable number of tests made from this year's crop and In a year or two more, during which time seed of the variety will be Increased, we should know Its real value." "Kota has many durum characteristics and lacks gluten quality," says Frank Baackes, V. P. American Steel Wire Co., "and probably is not the wheat we are seeking, but it gives great encouragement that we may by diligent effort find a wheat of good milling quality, which at the same time will resist black stem rust."

Why So Many Exchanges?

'"IXZHY are exchanges VV different points in

subscriber asks. There are two basic reasons for multiplying exchanges. The pair of wires connecting your telephone runs right to your Central office. If there were only one central office in a, big city the length of subscribers lines to that single exchange would make the initial cost and the upkeep and repair cost prohibitive. The other reason is technical. Every operator at a switchboard has to be within arm's length of all the numbers. She must be able to connect you with any number asked for. The reach of the normal operator limits the capacity of the switchboard to 10,000 lines. Hence, as the city grows, new exchanges must be built.

These are the fundamental reasons for multi-

exchange development. CHICAGO
