The Usage orange Is extensively used
for division and yard-fences, and. when
properly set out and cared for. it makes
a cheap and good hedge. In some parts
of Illinois there are miles of Usage
hedge to rods OF any other kind Of
fence, and, where kept we'll trimmed,
they give satisfaction. The chief OBJ
lection to Usage hedge as q yard-fenoe
is that hogs will work under IL TO find q
cool place. They rub and break off the
lower branches, and eventually make
gaps, through which they escape into the
fields or .neighbors' lots To prevent
this, the sharp, spiny shoots, cut from
the top, are piled against the base of
the hedge. But this soon becomes dry
and brittle, and Is quickly rooted eut
and pushed aside, so that almost com
slant watchfulness on the part of the
owner is necessary to prevent the hogs
from working through.
Eight years ago, says contributor to
the American Agriculturist, friend

his hog-lot, which were rubbed off

get the vest or trousers from the pillow

To-day the crippled soldier comes
Where some are laid to rest;
He hears in dreams the distant drums
From North, South, East, and West
And on the shafts that point above
He sees the banners furled,
In token Of Nations love
And peace throughout the world.
Which flag was theirs IL matters not;
The blue coat or the gray:
A common grief-all else forgot
Belongs to them today:
Above the graves OF those who fell
Upon the battlefield,
In town and city, hill and dell,
Spring weayes her grassy shield
And while we deck our heroes tombs
Their deeds remembering,
The children crown the veteran
With woven blooms Of spring.
Please God we never will forget
To let our garlands fall
Upon those heroes living yet:
God bless them, one and all!

What Working Women Could Accomplish
with the Ballot.
The Boston Globe says, discussing
woman suffrage:A 8 EaH - go.
I'm trenchant letter on thissnbiect}
Joe Howard recently pointed out that
our working women are at disadvan-
tage in the struggle for livelihood, be-
cause they have no political weight or
power. Surely this will not be denied.
Let the men engaged in any industry
unite to ask for any reasonable legisla-
ton to improve their condition, and both
parties are at once respectfully atteu-
tive. But where is the practical poll
tician who cares whether thousand or
two of working women are satisfied or
dissatisfied with the conditions of their
employment? The phflsnthropist, the
humanitarian, the practical Christian
cares, but the practical politician simply
says to himself that only votes count,
and that when it comes to votes women
are not in it. And from this point OF
view the practical politician is right.
''How long will it take the multitude
of working women, competing for a
share OF the worlds work and wages I'M
der these unequal conditions. to realize
that the ballot is the only key that will
ever unlock the door for their advance
ment? That, with votes in their hands
to give or to withhold, they and their
interests will at once become objects Of
political concern and legislative aften-

quickly won when the hosts Of LABOR
take it up in dead earnest as their own.
Not only would the ballot help the
working women to larger consideration
and higher compensation for their labor;
it would improve the condition OF werh-
ing men also. Equal pay for equal Ia
Dor, equal hours, equal conditions all
round for both sexes would be the sure
fruit of their equality before the law
and at the polls"
