This body represents one of the llvest and most willing rural organizations found in the state said O. W. Frier of Purdue university, who addressed the boys. . One outstanding feature of noteworthy significance Is the fact that every man on the executive body, composed of thirty-six men, were present and took part I In the discussion. ) Each president of the township's organizations were asked to tell the other officers what they had been doing. This is what they have done and are doing at the present time. Carried on the wheat campaign, located the government inspected seed wheat, assisted in Liberty loan and war saving Stamps, military drill, bought resting cots for soldiers coming through In trucks, bought coal for the needy whose sons have been taken to war, arranged for fertilizer demonstrations on wheat; have erected flag poles for their organization, have carried out Rooster week and have observed and selected seed corn during seed com week. They have carried out tho wlshs of the government in all cases and are more than willing to put on the different campaigns. To assist in the production of foodstuffs they have made arrangements with O. M. Frier of Purdue university, to hold a farmers' short course at Hagerstown during the winter. This special course Is not to be Just a few straight lectures. A large part of the time is to be taken up with actual classes In which real live stock, corn, feeds, fertilizers, soils, milk testers and record forms, diseased fruit,
models of good equipment for the farm work, charts, lantern slides, etc., may be studied at first hand. Course will cost $300. ! The course will cover a period or four days. A group of eight special

state, and probably the United States, that are expecting to hold a farmers' short course. AH farmers and others interested will be givemspecial invitations to attend.
Red Cross Notes
The campaign for clothing for the people of the occupied portion of France and Belgium bids fair to exceed expectations as the Interest taken seems to increase daily. The children of the Starr School contributed a great pile of clothing which was brought to the headquarters by one of Captain Roberts army trucks. The organized Girls Liberty Guards of the High School has undertaken to make
a personal canvass of the city In order to call the attention of everyone to the urgent demand for clothing. The quota of 4 tons is by no means a maximum limit and the present indications for reaching it should In no way lessen the Interest in the campaign because there is no possibility of over-
supplying the demand. If the whole
country exceeds its minimum quota. It
simply means that there will be less
suffering. It does not mean that all
will be comfortable. The campaign
will continue through next Tuesday
Any inquiries will be answered over
telephone No. 1251. Material for the new surgical dress
lng quota has come and Is being pre
pared for the workers, so that there will be plenty to be done by Monday. The rooms will be opened from then on as usual, and workers are asked to remember that Tuesday and Thursday nights will be kept as formerly. .

To Pay Fall Taxes County Treasurer, E. J. Weidner, calls attention to all taxpayers, that the last day for paying the fall installment of the 1917 taxes, payable in 1918, is Monday, November 4, 19-18, and all payments therefore must be in
the treasurer's office at the close of business of said day, as by law provided. People who are financially able to do so are requested to make payments early. By doing so they will not only be conferring a favor upon the treasurer's office force, but will avoid the inconvenience and delay Incident to the rush ,in the closing days of taxpaying for themselves, and will be favoring others by leaving the last days of the period for those who are less able to pay earlier.
